 * I’m trying to use the default <?php if ( get_field(‘field_name’) ): ?> function
   to check if the field has a value, but it is ignored on the archive page.
    Without
   it the field displays correctly, but as soon as I wrap it with ‘if/else’ the 
   field is ignored.
 * Am I missing something or is this a bug?
