Output ACF field

    I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I feel like people here would know the answer, but inside an Advanced Query Loop, how can I output the value from the custom post type.

    My example, I have a custom post type for “Shops” and I have a page set up to output a list of the shops using Advanced Query Loop and that is all working as expected, it is outputting the list of shops that I want based on the query, however, I would like to output some of the data points from the shops custom post type inside the loop, things like the shops address, etc… but I don’t seem to be able to find a block that will allow me to do that.

    It seems like such a basic thing that should just be available. Am I missing something?

    Thanks

    AQL only handles the loop itself, like WP’s own Query Loop block – you’ll have to create your own ACF Blocks if the output has to be formatted in specific ways. Or you can use the Meta Field block, which also works well.

    Thanks for answering @philbee!

    Depending on what the meta field is used for, you may also be able use to Block Bindings to display them.
