If you want to display the value you can add <?php the_field('test', get_the_ID()); ?> to your index.php or frontpage.php.
Or if you would just like to retrieve the value and assign it to a variable you could do it like <?php $test = get_the_field('test', get_the_ID(); ?>
the_field() takes the name of the field and the id of the post or page.
the_field() displays the value while get_field() returns the value to be assigned.

I am using ACF pro plugin to create custom fields and add custom formula.
You need to find the template for the invoice and add
<?php echo get_field('fieldname', $id); ?>
fieldname will be the name of the ACF field and $id will need to be the post id for wherever the field is
i am using CPT UI for custom post type and ACF custom fields.
i have created custom post type (companies) and linked to its custom fields. In admin everything is okay. I want to display this in front end. The user can be enter the company details also. How can i display this in front end ?
<?php
$id = get_the_ID();
$data = get_field('custom_field_name', $id);
echo $data;
?>
Obviously this will need a lot of refinement to look good but that's the basics on how to retrieve data from an ACF field. You may need to var_dump($data); in order to figure out how to get the part you want (if it's not just storing a string). Without more details on what you're doing that's a good an answer as I can give you.
I'm trying to use the the_field(); function in wordpress but did't work
also I tried to use the get_field(); function and same problem what I can do
<?php the_field('contact_form_short_code'); ?>
I am using advanced-custom-fields plugin the free version
the_field('contact_form_short_code') will try to get the field info from the current post in the loop. If you're not currently in a loop it will look to the current page/post.
If you want to reference a post from outside the loop you must specify the post ID, eg: the_field('contact_form_short_code', $post_id)
Hope that helps
Check if your field group location points to your template, taxonomy or custom post type, after that try to use echo to call your field.

If you want to display the shortcode (contact_form_short_code) specified in the admin panel via a custom field (ACF), you need to use the do_shortcode(); function.
In your case, the code looks like this:
<?php
//In the admin panel we fill the shortcode of the contact form, for example CF7.
//[contact-form-7 id="1" title="Form"]
$cform = get_field('contact_form_short_code', $post_id);
//Output of shortcode
echo do_shortcode($cform);?>
I am using magic field plugin for my project and created two related type fields and I want to get selected post/page id. Please help me I am stuck here.
Inside the loop you can say:
<?php echo get('field_name') ?>
Replace field_name with the name of your field. This should print it's contents.
I use Barecity Theme for WordPress. i built everything, but now i need to add a single.php file to theme. now it displays all post content at homepage, I created a short_desc Custom Field. and I call it from code with;
<?php //get_post_meta($post->ID, 'short_desc', true); ?>
it is fine. but i need to display this short desc at home page listing, and the main content at details page. how can do that?
I appreciate helps!!
It sounds like what you are trying to do is show a custom field that you have set on a post on the index page (which lists all the posts).
To do that you'll need to modify index.php by adding your snippet where you would like to have the short description.
<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'short_desc', true); ?>
You need to use echo to display the results from the get_post_meta function.
Depending on how your posts are setup you can also use the More button when you write your posts. This will cut off your post at a certain point that you decide and only show that short part on the index and archive pages.
Another option would be to use
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
Which shows the first 55 words (this can be adjusted though) of the post.
Hope that helps,
