Hi,
We’ve built a custom module which uses a custom post type with ACF custom fields. In those customs fields, we have an URL field we would like to use in a button. What can I do to automate the link in our custom button? Is there a shortcode we can put inside the URL so it can be replaced by our custom field value?
As shown on this screenshot, I tried to put the acf official shortcode inside but it is not interpreted :

Could you please help us to find a solution?
Thank you.

Hello Emma,
To set a URL on the button, use the element button and set the custom field there -> https://i.imgur.com/ZGYBjfE.png. You need to use {cf_nameoffield} -> https://i.imgur.com/F2ysuLA.png
Thank you!
Hello Anamaria, I did as you said but it doesn’t work :
The URL of my button is now {cf_deal_url} and the custom field is set as a URL named deal_url
However, when I click on the related button of the custom module, it goes to https://devenirbilingue.com/%7Bcf_deal_url%7D (=> error page – the page doesn’t exist) instead of the URL set for that offer.
Would you be able to help ?
Many thanks.
Hello!
Are you sure that the name field is correct? Also, does the CPT have a value in Gutenberg added?
Thank you!
