I have added a true/false checkbox using Advanced Custom Fields for Wordpress. I want to be able to select an option which amends the page template.
I am adding this option to the Product Category in WooCommerce / Wordpress. I have included this bit of logic in the code.
I have the following code but it does not work. I suspect it is because it is not within the loop. However the code I want to insert includes the loop. Any ideas/guidance on the code is much appreciated
<?php if (is_product_category() && get_field('field_name') == true) { ?>
<div class="custom-sidebar-right">
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php woocommerce_get_template_part( 'content', 'product' ); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
</div>
<?php } elseif (is_product_category() && get_field('field_name') == false ) { // Added close brace
<div> Empty Test </div>
}
Ok, I re-read the docs for ACF and found the following (http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/how-to/how-to-get-values-from-a-taxonomy-term/)
So I applied with some logic and now it works. Thanks for var_dump pointer as that helped me fix this.
// vars
$queried_object = get_queried_object();
$taxonomy = $queried_object->taxonomy;
$term_id = $queried_object->term_id;
$is_field_name = get_field('field_name', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id);
if (is_product_category() && $is_field_name == false) { ?>
missing bracket in the if statement , change
if (is_product_category() && get_field('field_name') == true)
with
if (is_product_category() && get_field('field_name') == true) )
