Changing the product image to a ACF field in the catalog

Hello?

Hi,

sorry for the late response! You can only change the value of fields by operating into the code, by simply adding this snippet code at the end of the functions.php of your active theme:

add_filter('aepc_feed_item', function($fields) {
	$item_id = $fields['g:id'];
	
	// TODO HERE Get the new image link and assign to 'g:image_link'
	$fields['g"image_link'] = '';
	
	return $fields;
});

Now, you just simply need to change $fields['g"image_link'] = ''; by assigning the value from your “ACF field”. Take in consideration that you have the $item_id if you need to get the field from a specific product post.

Great thank you for your help!

Hi,

I am trying to understand the code here. The meta key for my ACF field is product_custom_feed_image, so is the following the right way to insert my field?

add_filter('aepc_feed_item', function($fields) {
	$item_id = $fields['g:id'];
	
	// TODO HERE Get the new image link and assign to 'g:image_link'
	$fields['g"image_link'] = 'product_custom_feed_image';
	
	return $fields;
});

Thank you for reading and your help.

I tried to use that snippet but I got an “Invalid character error” . What should I do?

Hi,

if that 'product_custom_feed_image' is a post meta, you should just get it with get_post_meta function, in this way:

`
add_filter(‘aepc_feed_item’, function($fields) {
$item_id = $fields[‘g:id’];

// TODO HERE Get the new image link and assign to ‘g:image_link’
$fields[‘g”image_link’] = get_post_meta($item_id, ‘product_custom_feed_image’, true);

return $fields;
});
`
Try it and let me know.

Hi,

Thank you for the help. I have tried that code, but still it returns Invalid Characters Error. Is it related with the data in my database?

Example for entry for that custom meta key: https://www.howtostudycantonese.com/wp-content/uploads/cover_feed_AESOP0016.jpg

Is it possible that https or www the problem here?

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

I’m sorry I missed this reply and I’m seeing only now!

I hope you found already the solution, but if you are still waiting, I noticed there was an error in the snippet I passed you before, in particular in ‘g”image_link which should be ‘g:image_link. That ” is the reason of the error. here the right code:

add_filter(‘aepc_feed_item’, function($fields) {
$item_id = $fields[‘g:id’];

// TODO HERE Get the new image link and assign to ‘g:image_link’
$fields[‘g”image_link’] = get_post_meta($item_id, ‘product_custom_feed_image’, true);

return $fields;
});
