Hi there,

I'm trying to add a custom post type video using pods. All post types display for text and images, but can't access custom post types for the video element. As you can see the link has no custom post type's.

Using Brizy 2.4

  Hi Riaan,

  You are right. If you add a video link custom field using PODS, you cannot access it using the video element. Let me suggest a work around

  1. Delete the custom field you have added to Video custom post type
  2. Install the plugin 'Advanced Custom Fields' (ACF)
  3. Add "Video Link" custom field using ACF to Video custom post type
  4. Add the video link dynamically to the Video element using the "Video Link" custom field

  

  Please watch this video for more detailed procedure. https://jmp.sh/fxZ0Xte

  Hi there, this is a great solution for videos, but does not work for images, any suggestions on how this can be used for images?

  Hi Riaan

  A similar procedure can work for adding dynamic images using ACF. Here is how you do it. https://jmp.sh/CYWNu0V
