Working with acf custom post types

Hi, I’m just starting with Bricks and have the tryout version. I activated acf plugin, created a custom post type ‘member’ and added a text custom field and an image custom field to this new post type. When I try to create a template in bricks (Bricks->Templates->Add new), on the top righthand side under ‘Template Type’, my new post type doesn’t appear in the drop down box. I selected ‘Single’ because that seemed the closest and then added blocks to display the custom fields to the template, then saved my template. Back in the Wordpress workspace, under ‘Members’, if I view a created member, the page is empty. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thank you!

Have a look here

Hey @acp693,

choosing Single as the template type is correct in this case. The missing piece is setting the correct template conditions (see An Intro To Templates – Bricks Academy).

Best,

André

Thank you both for the help! I’ve now got it working.
