Wordpress, Advanced Custom Fields Image

Hey Guys,

I'm trying to pull an image from the advanced custom field plug in.

<?php the_field('image') ?> is pulling the full array.

How do I pull just the url?

Thanks,

Joe

Did you check out their documentation? It's pretty straightforward:

<?php if( get_field('image') ): ?>

    <img src="<?php the_field('image'); ?>" />

<?php endif; ?>

This assumes your field is named image and that you are using the URL return type. So for your settings on that field you would want the Return Value setting set to Image URL in order to use the example code above.

Thanks very much Mike! I had the return value set to Object!
