Hello. Would like to point out some of the things I’ve found when using the new CPT functionalities.

1 – I’m using the following field https://imgur.com/Y91wMWK but it is not pulling the information from my Custom field created (here the image that shows the fields created – https://imgur.com/nG6lusk) . It does not pull any information from the custom fields inside the type “Group”. Can you help me out? I’am doing something wrong?

2- The type “Data Picker” does not show up in the “ACF Field” dropdown (but it works when placed in the “Custom field name” field (example – https://imgur.com/8RbbvVU)

3- Is there a way to use the CPT type “Date Picker” in the filter functionality? I noticed that right now it only pulls “taxonomys”. I would like this in order to filter by date of release.

Hello,

1. The custom field will display the elements from the group ACF -> https://i.imgur.com/aDjMBtj.png -> https://i.imgur.com/RKNy4Pf.png
2. Please try to set the name in the custom filed name.
3. You can set sort for block https://i.imgur.com/80S9r2b.png

Thank you!

Hello,

1. But in your print I can see that you used the “text” type. I’m using the group type and each field has a taxonomy type. This way isn’t working, and unfortunately, for this scenario, I need it to have those two types: “Group” and “Taxonomy.”

2. That works but I was trying to point out that on the listing, it does not appear. Thanks 😀

3. I mean this filter here – https://imgur.com/db7cS7f

thanks in advance

Regarding the point one, the name appears indeed in the dropdown but it is not pulling the information from the custom field (it has a value). It only says “sample field data” in tagdiv preview and when opening the page, nothing is displayed indeed – https://imgur.com/rQReNrt and https://imgur.com/i74Ihrs and https://imgur.com/1hEEniQ

Hi,

I will investigate, and tomorrow, I will let you know exactly.
I asked the developers, and there is no support for the group-type field.

Thank you for your understanding!

Hello,

I did some tests, and I also asked a developer, and the situation is as follows, the jQuery ones are not supported. Also, for the layout ones, there was no possibility to display the group type because it would mean displaying several custom fields, and the element supports displaying only one custom field.
I added them to the list, but the developers will analyze whether they will be added.

Thanks for your patience!
