Settings

• Filter by Post Type
  Filters the selectable results via one or more post type. When left empty, all post types will be shown. As results are grouped by their post type, the selected post types here may be positioned into a specific order.

• Filter by Taxonomy
  Filters the selectable results via one or more taxonomy term.

• 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; ?>
