Custom header and caption not appearing on Posts Page

[Robert Mion]

After reviewing the documentation for Circumference, I successfully setup the proper custom fields to enable a header and caption. When set, they correctly appear on all pages, except the designated Posts Page. To be clear, I specified that the custom field group display on all Pages, including Posts Pages.

Upon initial research, it appears ACF is aware of a potential issue:

Has anyone else experienced this issue, and has a way to remedy?

Hi,

My goal:
Feature two items on the Posts Page of my WordPress site:
1. Header background image
2. Header caption

Circumference makes these items available via the Advanced Custom Fields plugin (I followed instructions to the detail from the documentation). These items correctly appear on every other page.

The Posts Page is setup exactly like all other pages. However, I do not see the image or caption when I visit the page.

How might I fix this problem?

My response dated October 8 contains screenshots that should help you in diagnosing the issue.

I provided the new website’s URL with this response: http://resolvetalent.com

The problematic page is ‘Our Blog’ which can be accessed using the website’s main navigation (it is the right-most link).

Hi Robert Mion,

Thank you for contacting Styled Themes support team, we are really sorry for the inconvenience caused. This happens when ACF plugin is unable to queried the blog page.
Please have a look on this article for reference: https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/acf-fields-not-displaying-on-posts-page/

Here on theme you need to make some sligt changes on header.php template. Please customize header.php file keeping on child theme otherwise
your changes will lost on theme update.

Find this code on header.php file:

<aside id="cir-banner" style="background-color: <?php echo get_theme_mod( 'banner_bg_colour', '#c6b274' ); ?>; <?php if ( get_header_image() ) : ?>background-image: url(<?php header_image(); ?>);<?php endif; ?><?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, 'header_background', true) ) { ?> background-image: url(<?php echo esc_url (the_field('header_background')); ?>); <?php } ?> color: <?php echo get_theme_mod( 'banner_text_colour', '#ffffff' ); ?>;">
			<?php get_sidebar( 'banner' ); ?>
</aside>

And replace above code with the following code:

<?php

$post_id = false;

if( is_home() ) {
	$post_id = 123; // specif ID of home page
}

<aside id="cir-banner" style="background-color: <?php echo get_theme_mod( 'banner_bg_colour', '#c6b274' ); ?>; <?php if ( get_header_image() ) : ?>background-image: url(<?php header_image(); ?>);<?php endif; ?><?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, 'header_background', true) ) { ?> background-image: url(<?php echo esc_url (the_field('header_background', $post_id )); ?>); <?php } ?> color: <?php echo get_theme_mod( 'banner_text_colour', '#ffffff' ); ?>;">
			<?php get_sidebar( 'banner' ); ?>
</aside>

Note: If you’re not technically sound in WordPress, we suggest you to take help of a developer.

Thanks
