Hi @minagonzalez,
A new version ( 1.8.2 ) of the plugin should be available.
Which includes a fix for your error.
If you are experiencing other errors to write finally then I can get them fixed.

Best regards

Hi,

Have only had a look at it today as my full time job and some family have taken some time this week.

But I’ve done some different tests, but I haven’t been able to recreate the error.
Therefore, I have some questions I hope you can answer and which I hope could help me recreate the error.

1. Is it a custom post?
2. Is it a custom taxonomy?

If it is one of the 2 or both.
Do you then have the opportunity to give me information on how these are set up so that I could possibly recreate them on my test environment.

And the last question.
What version do you use of WordPress, WPBakery Page Builder.
And if you have used a plugin to set up custom post / taxonomy what version and name of the plugin.

Best regards
Frederik

Hi @minagonzalez,

Right now you don’t need to send the screenshot because you sent the error you get then I have something I can go for.

But I’m going to Take a look at it as soon as possible, and I’ll be back as soon as I know something more.

Best regards

Hi @minagonzalez and @axsu,
As it is right now, the plugin cannot display icons out of the box.
But there are filter hooks that allow you to change how a field is displayed.

Filter hook for ACF URL Field

add_filter( 'acfvc_url', 'acfvc_function_name', 10, 3 );
function acfvc_function_name( $output, $field, $post_id ) {
    return $output;
}

Hi @minagonzalez, sorry for the very late reply.

But do you have the opportunity to give me a little more information?
Possibly with some screenshots, since I’m not quite sure how to create this error.

Hi @axsu,

The reason you can’t choose your custom post type is that the plugin isn’t capable of it right now.
Don’t know if it will solve your problem but it works with WPBakery grid builder.
https://wpbakery.com/video-academy/grid-builder/

The Reason there is a field called “get field data from” is because you have the opportunity to retrieve data from acf option page.
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/options-page/

But I write on my todo list that it should be possible to retrieve data from other post types.
I don’t know when I’ll be able to get this ready as my todo list is getting a bit long, but hopefully, I’ll get a look at it this Saturday or the next few weeks.

Hi @carmolim,

I just did some testing, and to me, it looks like it works.
Can you send some more information?
Images of the element settings.
The version number of

• acf-vc integrator
• wpbakery builder
• WordPress

So I can better troubleshoot

Best regards
Frederik

Hi everyone, I finally got some time and looked through your comment.

I’ve researched the suggestion @carmolim suggests with getting a custom field added to the grid builder “add link” option https://gifyu.com/image/drj2
It is something that should be possible for me to do but requires some time and a bit more research.
But this is something I will set on my todo list.

@waldobug you write you need a shortcode, all elements of Wpbakery are created as a shortcode, so it should be possible to create a new page/post and insert the element you need using Wpbakery and then switch to WordPress default editor and then you should have a shortcode you can use.

But I also set it on my todo list that some shortcodes should be added, which can be used without Wpbakery or at least a place where you can see them so you can insert them without Wpbakery.

I’m trying to find some time so I can get it resolved as soon as possible, but I don’t want to put any time estimate on it as these times are a bit crazy.

I hope you can understand it.

Best regards
Frederik

Hi every one,

I apologize for not being very active on this support thread. My day job has required a little more of my time at the moment.

But I’ll have a look at it today or hopefully by tomorrow and get a look through all your comments.

And see if I can help you.

with best regards
Frederik

Hi @carmolim,

I try and look at it and give an answer as soon as I have a solution or some questions.

Hi,
Sorry for the late response.

It is not possible to display a URL field as text by default in this plugin.
But there is a built-in filter hook that allows you to change the output.

add_filter('acfvc_url','acfvc_change_url_field_output',10,3);
function acfvc_change_url_field_output ( $output, $field, $post_id ) {
    return  $field["value"];
}

There is also such a hook to change how the image and gallery field output is.

add_filter('acfvc_image','acfvc_change_image_field_output',10,3);
function acfvc_change_image_field_output ( $output, $field, $post_id ) {
    return  $output;
}

add_filter('acfvc_gallery','acfvc_change_gallery_field_output',10,4);
function acfvc_change_gallery_field_output ( $output, $field, $gallery_options, $post_id ) {
    return  $output;
}

I hope this can help you a little, and if not then just write again

Best regards
Frederik

Hi @maartenrietdijk,

Sorry for the late reply.

It should be possible but it will require some code to make it work.
I have created some filter hooks that allow you to change the output that the plugin makes. add_filter (acfvc_file ‘,’ function_name ‘, 10.4);

And with that hook you can then use some html5 to insert an audio player see eg. this link https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_audio.asp

add_filter('acfvc_file','function_name',10,4);
function function_name( $output, $field, $link_text, $post_id ) {

    return $output;
}

Hi @cheom,

This plugin can do so that you can insert an element called “acf-vc integrator” into templatera where you can choose what field to take content from.
Then you can use some css to style its output to look like a button.

It is also possible with a filter hook to change the output plugin made so that you can customize it to your needs. add_filter ('acfvc_url', $output, $field, $post_id, 10, 3)

Best regards
Frederik

Hi @luthermax,
Sorry for the late reply.

As far as I can understand, I don’t think this plugin can do what you want.

What this plugin does is take an acf field and create a view without people needing code.
So for example. color field in acf here it outputs a div box that has the color you have selected and then it also shows the color code itself.
I’ve built in filter hooks so you can change the output.

Best regards
Frederik

Hi @ewright44,

Sorry for the late reply.

The only way you can do it right now is by using a filter hook to change the way the plugin displays that field.

add_filter( 'acfvc_image', 'function_name', 10, 3 );
function function_name( $output, $field, $post_id ) {
    return $output;
}

But you are absolutely right and I do not have an explanation as to why this is not possible besides I have not thought of it, but I will add it to my todo list for the next version of the plugin that I am working on.

Best regards
Frederik
