ACF Field for Blogpost Intro Text

  • Webkiter
    May 9, 2025 at 1:28 am

    Hi there,

    I would like to use ACF to write dynamic blog post intro texts.
    I created a field group and tried to select it under dynamic content, but the field group doesn’t appear to get selected.

    Can you help on how to make use of ACF?

    I added a screenshot of what text I would like to write via ACF fields.

    Thank you!

    Hi there,

    You need to set REST API to TRUE for each of the fields so that GB can access them.

    Hi Ying!

    How do I do that? What is Rest API?

    How can I then define a text that should be written via an ACF field?

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    It’s a setting for custom fields, please check ACF’s doc here:https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/wp-rest-api-integration/#using-the-rest-api-with-custom-post-types-and-taxonomies

    Thanks Ying,

    thanks a lot for your help!

    How do I have to fill out the fields in the ACF settings?

    I added 2 screenshots to the private info box.

    And what would be the next step?
    How can I assign ACF fields to particular blocks in GeneratePress?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi there,

    Looking at the screenshot, the REST API for that field is already active.

    Are you working on this in a Block Element or in a regular post or page?

    Hi Alvind,

    yes, but without filling out the fields, I cannot save the settings.
    What should I enter in the URL field?

    I am creating a Blog Post hero as an Element.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    What should I enter in the URL field?

    What URL field are you referring to? I don’t quite understand your question.
