Page With My PHP Code Now Displaying Differently

I’m not sure if this is a WordPress problem, a Woocommerce problem, or a Pods problem. The code below allowed me to show a Pods custom field at the bottom of a Woocommerce product page. It was working just fine until recently. I really don’t know PHP at all, but was able to hobble this together from examples of other code that I found. With this code active, now the page displays in a frame. The product photos do not show and the WordPress logged-in admin bar does not display. I also get this message where the field would be displayed: The site is experiencing technical difficulties.

Any ideas as to why this would now suddenly be the case or any other insights would be greatly appreciated!
```
add_action( 'woocommerce_after_single_product', 'display_pod_product_bottom', 30 );
  
function display_pod_product_bottom() {
  echo '' . get_field('product_page_bottom_pod');
  // Note: 'product_page_bottom_pod' is the slug of the Pods Field
}
```
The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hello @burtons
get_field() isn’t a Pods function and never was. Aren’t you mistaking Pods for ACF?

Thank you Jory. That bit of information helps. I modified the code from something I found that was made for ACF. Interestingly it worked fine as long as I had ACF installed, but when I deleted ACF if stopped functioning. I am now trying to figure out what I can use instead of get_field().

Any further insights or solutions would still be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Sidney

Field is our pods function, but you have to open a Pods object for that. You should probably be using get_post_meta which is the preferred WP method if you’re on the current post

You could also use Pods Templates with Auto Templates set to the woocommerce_after_single_product

Thank you, Jim. I was able to sort it out after you pointed me in the right direction.
I used this code:
```
add_action( 'woocommerce_after_single_product', 'display_pod_product_bottom', 30 ); 
  
function display_pod_product_bottom() {
	$product_page_bottom_pod = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'product_page_bottom_pod', true );
	echo $product_page_bottom_pod;	
}
```
