Single Template integrating ACF Custom Post Objects

[Will]

Hello,

I’m trying to put an advanced custom field into the single-event template. I’ve used the same code on other custom post types and it work fine, I’ve also been able to add custom fields, but when I add a post object, it just displays the current events page info.

Please see code below

Thanks
Will


<?php
/**
* Single Event Template
* A single event. This displays the event title, description, meta, and
* optionally, the Google map for the event.
*
* Override this template in your own theme by creating a file at [your-theme]/tribe-events/single-event.php
*
* @package TribeEventsCalendar
* @version 4.3
*

Hi Will!

Sorry to hear your running into trouble! I did a few quick tests on my end and ran into the same issue with the post object field.

My suggestion would be to utilize one of the available action hooks to attach a custom function to. do_action( 'tribe_events_single_event_before_the_content' ) looks like a good candidate based on where you currently have the code.

Let me know if I can help any further or if you have any other questions.

Cheers,
Trisha
