Meta Field Block

説明

The plugin allows developers/users to display a meta field as a block on the front end, supporting ACF fields. It can be nested inside a parent block that has postId, postType context such as Query Block or stand-alone.

How to use the block with ACF Field Types?

1. All basic field types that return strings or can cast to strings are supported – The output is from the get_field function.
2. Link type – The output markup is <a href={url} target={target} rel="noreferrer noopener">{title}</a>. There is no rel attribute if the target is not _blank
3. Image type – The output markup by the wp_get_attachment_image function. The image size is from the Preview Size setting.
4. Page link type, Post object type – The output markup for a single-value field is <a class="post-link" href={url} rel="bookmark">{title}</a>, and for a multiple-value field is <ul><li><a class="post-link" href={url} rel="bookmark">{title}</a></li></ul>.
5. Relationship type – The output markup is <ul><li><a class="post-link" href={url} rel="bookmark">{title}</a></li></ul>
6. Taxonomy type – The output markup is <ul><li><a class="term-link" href={term_url}>{term_name}</a></li></ul>
7. User type – The output markup for a single-value field is <a class="user-link" href={author_url}>{display_name}</a>, and for a multiple-value field is <ul><li><a class="user-link" href={author_url}>{display_name}</a></li></ul>.
8. For other complex field types, you can code a custom output markup by the hook apply_filters( 'meta_field_block_get_acf_field', 'field_value', 'post_id', 'field' ) or by the general hook in the advanced use cases.

Advanced use cases

1. How to change the output of the block?
2. How to display a complex value like a dynamic field that depends on multiple meta fields?
