  • Allow Null
    Allows the current selection to be cleared and an empty value to be saved.

  • Allow Archives URLs
    Includes post type archive URLs within the select list of options.

  • Multiple
    Allows you to select more than one choice. When enabled, you may also drag/drop to reorder the selected choices.

Template usage

The Page Link field will return either a single URL or array of URLs. To get more data from a selected post, please use the post object field instead.

Display single value

This example demonstrates how to display a selected page link value.

<a href="<?php the_field('page_link'); ?>">Continue reading</a>

Display multiple values

This example demonstrates how to load and display multiple selected page link values.

<?php 
$urls = get_field('urls');
if( $urls ): ?>
    <h3>Further reading</h3>
    <ul>
        <?php foreach( $urls as $url ): ?>
        <li>
            <a href="<?php echo esc_url( $url ); ?>"><?php echo esc_html( $url ); ?></a>
        </li>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
    </ul>
<?php endif; ?>
