Hello @squaredvr,
Could you share the shortcode you’ve used? And are you using this in the post content or in a Pods Template?
Cheers, Jory
Hey Jory,
I’m using it in the post content.
This is the shortcode I used: [pods field=”course_name”]
I took some screenshots that more clearly demonstrate the problem. Pasting the links and explaining each screenshot below:
PODS1.JPG: Shows the content of the post. The post type is called “question” and is a non-public post type. The arrows point to pods shortcodes referencing pods fields from external posts. The external posts it references are called “topic” and are a public post type. The circled shortcode references a pods field within the post itself.
PODS2.JPG: Demonstrates the content of the pods field that is referenced in the pods shortcode.
PODS3.JPG: Shows the pods list and the pod created for the “question” post type
PODS4.JPG: Shows the pods fields for the “question” post type, and confirms that the shortcode references the correct pods field.
PODS5.JPG: Shows the post on the front end. The content can be mapped to the back end in PODS1.JPG. The arrows point to pods shortcodes referencing pods fields from external posts. The circled shortcode references a pods field within the post itself. The pods shortcodes referencing pods fields from external posts display the content properly, but the shortcode referencing the field from the post itself does not. I replicated this experiment with other pods fields in the post to confirm that it wasn’t working with those either.

Thanks for the help!
[pods field=”course_name”] will only work inside the WP loop. Are you sure this is the case?
If not you’ll need to provide the current object info just like you did with the other shortcodes that are working (name & id).
I assume you’ve fixed your issue since I didn’t get a reply.
If not, feel free to re-open this topic!
Cheers, Jory
