 * Hi,
 * Is it possible to import a custom field that is set in a widget block?
 * Any ideas?
    Thanks

 * Hi there,
 * You can use the Advanced Custom Fields plugin to add a custom field to the Widget
   Blocks. To show this post on (the public section / frontend) of your website 
   you will need some additional code though.
 * You can use the `ww_content` filter hook to add the value of this custom field
   to the widget content. Are you familiar with PHP and the way WordPress filters
   work? Your code would look something like this.
 *     ```
       function my_widget_block_content($content, $id) {
       	$field = get_field('my_custom_field', $id);
   
       	$content .= "\nField value: {$field}";
       	return $content;
       }
   
       add_filter('ww_content', 'my_widget_block_content', 10, 2);
       ```
   
 * Hope that helps!
