What would relational fields not show up in the “ACF Field” key dropdown list in Elementor Pro?

[ad_1]

Hello everyone, first time poster

I can’t seem to find any good video tutorials or written documentation on how relationship fields work, let alone with multiple use cases and examples. So, I’m reaching out to the community. Everything that I can find wants me to pay for another plugin (that I’m not even sure I need), or write some code. I’m looking for a no-code solution.

What I Purchased / Rented / Licensed:

* Elementor Pro
* ACF Pro

Of course I have the requisite CPT UI and a free plugin called Elementor Custom Skin (which I’m not sure I need). I’ve been following tutorials and adding plugins as they recommend. But, I’ve already maxed my plugin budget.

Often, there are very good videos explaining what all the options are for solving a particular issue. But, not in this case.

**Can someone please explain I can display data pulled from an ACF relationship field in an Elementor template? I set up the field type as “Relationship” for my Guest (Person) CPT and associated a business. When I click the “ACF field” key dropdown in Elementor frontend it doesn’t not display the relationship fields as options at all!**

* Is this normal? Am I just missing some configuration and people run into this issue all the time?
* Is this NOT normal and I need to contact support about it? Which support? Is this an Elementor issue OR ACF?

Appreciate any help!

\[NOTE: Even if you don’t know the solution, ***I would actually find it beneficial in this case to know who understands clearly what I’m trying to do, yet at the same time doesn’t know the solution.***\] [ad_2]
