Dynamic Message

Field Render

Display a custom PHP/HTML message using a simple named hook.

Field Value

The value cannot be retrieved as the field isn’t saved as custom meta.

Field Content

Render Field Hook

You can render any custom content using the native acf/render_field hook. Usage example:

/*
 * https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-render_field/
 */
add_action('acf/render_field/name=dynamic_message', 'my_acf_dynamic_message');
function my_acf_dynamic_message($field){
    ?>
    
    <table class="wp-list-table widefat fixed striped">
      <tr>
        <td>Island Trading</td>
        <td>Helen Bennett</td>
        <td>UK</td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    
    <?php
}

Inline Render Callback

It is possible to render custom content directly within the field declaration when using local PHP field registration. Usage example:

acf_add_local_field_group(array(
    'key' => 'group_my_field_group',
    'title' => 'My Field Group',
    'fields' => array(
        array(
            'key'       => 'field_my_dynamic_message',
            'label'     => 'My Dynamic Message',
            'name'      => 'my_dynamic_message',
            'type'      => 'acfe_dynamic_message',
            
            // Inline render callback
            'render'    => function($field){
                ?>
                <table class="wp-list-table widefat fixed striped">
                    <tr>
                        <td>Island Trading</td>
                        <td>Helen Bennett</td>
                        <td>UK</td>
                    </tr>
                </table>
                <?php
            }
        ),
    ),
    'active' => true,
    'location' => array(
        array(
            array(
                'param' => 'post_type',
                'operator' => '==',
                'value' => 'post',
            ),
        ),
    ),
));
