# Displaying custom fields in the Enfold theme

Using [*Layouts*](/advanced-views/getting-started/first-layout.md) from Advanced Views, you can display any custom fields in [Enfold](https://themeforest.net/item/enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4519990). Smart templates [give you complete control](/advanced-views/getting-started/key-aspects.md) over the markup and display logic without extra hassle. &#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
Advanced Views natively supports fields from multiple providers:

1. [WordPress fields](/advanced-views/fields/wordpress-fields.md) (like page title, excerpt, user name, etc)
2. [Advanced Custom Fields](/advanced-views/fields/meta-plugins/advanced-custom-fields.md) (any field type)
3. [MetaBox fields](/advanced-views/fields/meta-plugins/meta-box-fields.md) (any field type)
4. [Pods fields](/advanced-views/fields/meta-plugins/pods-fields.md) (any field type)
5. [WooCommerce Product fields](/advanced-views/fields/woo-product-fields.md) (like price, SKU, height, etc)

To display [other fields](/advanced-views/fields/other-fields.md) made by your theme or plugins, just [customize the default Layout template](/advanced-views/layouts/code-fields/custom-template.md).

## 1. How to display custom fields on a single page

{% hint style="info" %}
The steps below apply to the Enfold: Avia Layout Builder. If you edit pages using the Gutenberg editor, refer to our [Gutenberg editor guide](/advanced-views/integrations/editors/gutenberg/displaying-custom-fields.md) instead.
{% endhint %}

In Advanced Views, *Layouts* are embedded using native WordPress shortcodes, which you can paste anywhere in the Avia Builder:&#x20;

1. [Create a *Layout*](/advanced-views/getting-started/first-layout.md)
2. Add target fields in the *Fields* tab and save the *Layout*
3. Copy a [Layout embedding shortcode](/advanced-views/layouts/embedding-shortcode.md)
4. Edit the target page with the Enfold (Advanced) Builder
5. **Within the Builder**: Click on the plus and add a [Code block](https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/code-block/)
6. **Within the Code block:** Paste the Layout embedding shortcode
7. Save the page and visit it to see the result

To change the default field appearance, open the created *Layout* and [customize the *Layout* template](/advanced-views/layouts/code-fields/custom-template.md).&#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
By default, *Layout* displays chosen fields of the current page. You can display fields from other sources by tuning the [Layout shortcode arguments](/advanced-views/layouts/embedding-shortcode.md).&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## 2. How to display custom fields in a Custom Page Layout

If multiple pages or CPT items share the same set of custom fields, you don't need to embed a *Layout* in each item individually. Instead, embed the *Layout* in the appropriate [Enfold Custom Layout](https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/custom-layout-and-dynamic-content/), so it is rendered automatically for every corresponding item:

<figure><img src="https://2293383029-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN2nAC4pTDjEmDu8ZkLB2%2Fuploads%2FsH5mOVDXvs0DHQHIdFRy%2Fenfold-layouts.png?alt=media&amp;token=517f9964-ec7d-4d59-8b8b-c4fc4e94cf39" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

<figure><img src="https://2293383029-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN2nAC4pTDjEmDu8ZkLB2%2Fuploads%2FKYDaAaYaxCYZazjQKYZi%2Fenfold-layout.png?alt=media&amp;token=9e7bc7fd-bc81-4378-a77a-02ccf850d627" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

1. [Create an *Advanced Layout*](/advanced-views/getting-started/first-layout.md)
2. Add target fields in the *Fields* tab and save the *Advanced Layout*
3. Copy an [*Advanced Layout* embedding shortcode](/advanced-views/layouts/embedding-shortcode.md)
4. Open the [Enfold Custom Layouts](https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/custom-layout-and-dynamic-content/)  (Dashboard → Enfold → All Custom Layouts)
5. Choose any Custom Layout (or add a new one)
6. **Within the Builder**: Click the plus icon and add a [Code block](https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/code-block/)
7. **Within the Code block:** Paste the *Advanced Layout* embedding shortcode
8. Save the template and visit the target page to see the result

When the template is rendered, the embedded *Layout* automatically displays the custom fields for the current page, post, or other content item using that template.

{% hint style="success" %}
*Layout* IDs are unique string identifiers, not WordPress post IDs. Unlike post IDs, they remain unchanged when *Layouts* are exported and imported, ensuring consistent references across different environments, such as staging and production.
{% endhint %}

## 3. How to display custom fields in a Header/Footer

In Enfold, you can build a custom header or footer just like any other page, then assign it as the header or footer in the Enfold settings.

{% hint style="info" %}
A common use case is [displaying custom fields from an Options page](/advanced-views/field-sources/options-page.md) in the site footer.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="https://2293383029-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN2nAC4pTDjEmDu8ZkLB2%2Fuploads%2FCMrxvzpn3qItqhtXN4x2%2Fenfold-footer.png?alt=media&amp;token=18cd08c8-3981-48ba-bc0e-7cff77df2283" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

<figure><img src="https://2293383029-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN2nAC4pTDjEmDu8ZkLB2%2Fuploads%2F9jt9QsfEYuZjOJkR6vS8%2Fenfold-editor.png?alt=media&amp;token=e13b0b05-7999-4192-a776-099cacb8abb8" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The only difference in this integration compared to the single page is the shortcode modification: you need to add the `object-id` argument to load fields from the Options page:

1. [Create a *Layout*](/advanced-views/getting-started/first-layout.md)
2. Add target fields in the *Fields* tab and save the *Layout*
3. Copy a [Layout embedding shortcode](/advanced-views/layouts/embedding-shortcode.md)
4. Modify [*Layout* shortcode](/advanced-views/layouts/embedding-shortcode.md): add `object-id="options"` argument (to [display fields from the Options page](/advanced-views/field-sources/options-page.md))
5. Edit the target header/footer page with the Enfold (Advanced) Builder
6. **Within the Builder**: Click on the plus and add a [Code block](https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/code-block/)
7. **Within the Code block:** Paste the Layout embedding shortcode
8. Save the Header/Footer page and visit any page to see the result

{% hint style="info" %}
Unlike page-specific custom fields, custom fields from an Options page are site-wide. As a result, the same values are displayed on every site page.
{% endhint %}
