 * I can’t get get_field or the_field to work on any page that has custom page template
   associated with it. For example, with my theme my home page and blog page use
   custom templates. If I change these pages to use the default template then the
   codes work fine but when I use a page template the codes quit working. How can
   I fix this?

 * I found the code messing it up but I don’t know why.
 *     ```
       <?php if ( !is_archive() ) { ?>
       <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts('paged='.$paged.'&cat='.$cat); ?>
       <?php } ?>
       ```

 * I’m having a similar related issue. Do you have Chrome and the developer tools
   plugin? If so, pull up the javascript console and tell me what the error message
   is when you encounter that problem.
 * My issue is the admin area is broken due to a conflict somewhere with the ACF
   plugin and the error returned is specific to the page_template action. I’m curious
   what yours says.

 * put this after you close the if
 * <?php wp_reset_query(); // reset the query ?>
 * That should fix it
