Title: ACF Custom Fields Last modified: March 31, 2022 --- # ACF Custom Fields * Resolved [alortiz3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alortiz3/) * (@alortiz3) * alortiz3 * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-custom-fields/) * Hello, * I’ve been trying to add an ACF field to my invoices and for unknown reasons I can not get it to work. I’ve tried using the following code without much success. The ACF field meta is customer_no. I’ve used USER_customer_no and _customer_no and still getting a blank display. Any assistance will be appreciated. * ``` /* Add Account Number to Invoice */ add_action( 'wpo_wcpdf_after_order_data', 'wpo_wcpdf_customer_no', 10, 2 ); function wpo_wcpdf_customer_no ($template_type, $order) { if ($template_type == 'invoice') { ?> Account No: get_meta('customer_no'); ?> get_id() ) ``` * Instead of using `$order->get_meta()` * [ACF documentation — the_field()](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/the_field/) * Thread Starter [alortiz3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alortiz3/) * (@alortiz3) * alortiz3 * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-custom-fields/#post-15515303) * Thank you for your prompt response. Tried with the suggested code, got the same result. Attached is the screenshot that you requested.

Like this: ⌊custom-Field-ACF⌉ * From the settings, is the field Active? * You also mentioned that “the result is the same”, but what is the result? Is the “Account No:” text visible? Completely blank?

One shows the field and the value, the other shows the result in the Invoice.

As you can see on the attached screen the Account Number is present, but it does not show in the invoice. We do not include the account number in the order details which why you don’t see it in the edit orders screen. The account number is part of the user’s profile.

Since we are dealing with the ACF plugin, from the settings, could you show us a screenshot of the** Location** block of this field? It should be right under the items in the 1st screenshot you shared. * ![ACFLocation](https://i0.wp.com/i.ibb.co/fMnLdQF/ACFLocation.png?ssl=1) * Thread Starter [alortiz3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alortiz3/) * (@alortiz3) * alortiz3 * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-custom-fields/#post-15529862) * Here’s the screenshot that you requested: [https://ibb.co/Qkq37CQ](https://ibb.co/Qkq37CQ) * Thanks! * Plugin Contributor [Ewout](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pomegranate/) * (@pomegranate) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-custom-fields/#post-15531627) * `$order->get_meta()` is for pulling order meta, but it looks like your ACF field is for User meta. More information about displaying user meta is in our documentation here: [https://docs.wpovernight.com/woocommerce-pdf-invoices-packing-slips/displaying-user-data/](https://docs.wpovernight.com/woocommerce-pdf-invoices-packing-slips/displaying-user-data/) * Thread Starter [alortiz3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alortiz3/) * (@alortiz3) * alortiz3 * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-custom-fields/#post-15532852) * This has been solved using the suggested code.
