Get ACF field in Structural builder custom layout

Hi!
Of course, you can get the ACF field values ​​within Structural Builder. To do this, select the Start from Scratch tab in the settings. In the list of elements, look for a component named Custom Field (ACF). Then, select your custom field from the list.

You mean getting dates from ACF and then inserting them into the post card, right? If so, it’s probably better to process them using a shortcode (format the desired date) and then insert the shortcode into the post card. There’s a Shortcode component that inserts and displays the data.

To get the ID of a page or post in functions.php, use the global $post variable (within the context), the get_queried_object_id() function (most reliable), or get_the_ID() (if used inside a loop).

The main ways to get the ID are: get_queried_object_id(): A universal method that works in templates, archives, and single pages, returning the ID of the current request. $post->ID: Requires explicit declaration of global $post; before use. url_to_postid(): Allows you to get the ID based on the URL, if known.
Getting the ID of the current page/post (universal):

function get_current_page_id() {
$id = get_queried_object_id(); return $id; } add_action('wp_head', 'get_current_page_id');
OR
function check_post_id() { global $post; if ( is_single() || is_page() ) {
echo $post->ID; } }
add_action('wp_head', 'check_post_id');

Using get_the_ID() (only inside the WordPress loop):

// If the code is called when generating content
$current_id = get_the_ID();

It is better to use get_queried_object_id() or the global $post variable.

If you use a DataPicker field in ACF attached to a post, you can display this field in the post card using a component called Custom Field (ACF) (see screenshot). The plugin already supports these field types, and this one displays perfectly on the frontend in the post card itself. We think this is what you meant.

Hi!
You can get the post ID within the shortcode itself. See example:

add_shortcode( 'test_sc', function($atts) {
   $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
      'post_id' => get_the_ID(),
   ), $atts );

   $post_id = intval($atts['post_id']);
      return '<div>
         The test shortcode works successfully! Post ID: '. $post_id .'
      </div>';
});

Then in the builder, insert the shortcode names (see screenshot)

Thus, inside the shortcode you have the opportunity to get the post ID and make some calculations) We hope this helps you!

Good Luck!
