I'm trying to find out how to display label from select advanced custom field for the last couple of hours.

When I use rwmb_meta() it returns the field's value, instead of the label.
But when I use rwmb_the_value() it returns the label with<a>..</a> tag wrapping it.

Is there any way to display the field without this <a> wrapper in a correct way?

Thanks

Hi,

When using the function rwmb_the_value() to show the value of the field select_advanced, it just shows the list with HTML tag <ul> <li>, not the <a> tag.

Or you can use the function rwmb_get_field_settings() to get all settings of a field.

Weird, on my installation it's always wrap with <a></a>, so I always make a link when displaying the label.

Could you please share the code that created the field select_advanced and show on the front end? I will take a closer look and give a quick response.

            ),
        ),
    );

    return $meta_boxes;
}

Actually it's not just select_advanced, but also the one that using select

if( is_home() && is_front_page() ) {
    // The Query
    $the_query = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'dedicated-server', 'posts_per_page' => 1 ) );

    // The Loop
    if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
       
        while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
            
            $the_query->the_post();

            $recommend  = rwmb_meta('recommended_63mxmfmup4t');
            
            if($recommend == 1 || $recommend == 'Yes') {
                ?>
<?php 
<!--- other tags ... -->

<h5 class="h5-z5-1"><?php rwmb_the_value('cpu_model_06x5z89bthw');?>

<!--- other tags ... -->
<?php

            }
        }        
    } else {
        // no posts found
    }
    /* Restore original Post Data */
    wp_reset_postdata();
}

?>

Hi,

Because the type of the field is post so the helper function rwmb_the_value() always returns the title of the post wrapped in the <a> tag to link to the post.

You can use the function get_the_title() to show only the post title base on the post ID which returned by the helper function rwmb_meta().

$select_advanced = rwmb_meta( 'cpu_model_06x5z89bthw' );
echo get_the_title( $select_advanced );

For more information, please follow the document below.
