You can use many dynamic data inside different blocks. All dynamic fields support retrieving data from current item (so, you can build custom Single and Archive templates) and also data retrieval from definite items. For example, you can get image from other post.
There are two basic types of dynamic fields: Hybrid dynamic and Full dynamic types.
2.0 version has update to retrieve also array values. You can get values from multidimensional fields
6.5 version All in One plan has now included the ACPT plugin for making custom metas. Please, note that the keys of fields work differently in ACPT, you must include the field group in the key. For example, you made Group with the key “test” and placed the Text field with the key “text”. In Dynamic fields of Greenshift, you must use test_text for the key to retrieve the text field value
Hybrid dynamic fields
Hybrid dynamic fields are injected into blocks as options. Such blocks continue to be regular editable blocks but you can replace part of content with dynamic data. For example, you can set part of text to be dynamic or replace background image with dynamic URL, etc
Here is list of supported blocks and data in hybrid dynamic blocks
Advanced Text and Advanced Heading block
You can add dynamic part to these blocks and combine them with static area. Supported dynamic data

3 responses to “Dynamic fields”
I have a ACF that has a text URL in it. I need to wrap this text URL with a tags to make it a link in the output.
I see you have a “mailto” but I don’t see a textlink. How can I go about formatting the output of this field?
Thanks a million!
Hi. Plugin has dynamic link option in Button block and in Container block. So, you can use Advanced Button block to make links (you can set background color with zero opacity to make button looks like a link)
Thanks a million!
