Tell us what you are trying to do?
The post type was created with toolset but I want to create a post loop with my kadence themes advanced loop block.
Currently, kadence cannot seem to display images that were created with toolset. Ive tried various configurations of the dynamic settings but images just wont show up.

Again, the image field was created by toolset for a custom post type. How can kadence use these images as background images, etc when creating its own loop for the custom posts?

Hi there

Toolset has its own dynamic sources system, it doesn't provide support for other dynamic source systems such as the one provided by Kadence.

I don't have information about how the Kadence system works, so I'm not in a position to comment.

What I can say is that Toolset stores custom image fields as URLs. Maybe Kadence expects an attachment ID? I don't know, but—given the knowledge that your custom images are stored as URLs—it would be better to consult with Kadence documentation and support about how to use those in Kadence dynamic sources.

From your screenshot it looks like you already know that Toolset custom fields—which are stored in wp_postmeta like any other custom field—use a 'wpcf-' prefix for the meta key. So you appear to have created an image custom field with a slug of 'featured-image' that would use a key of 'wpcf-featured-image'. I don't know what is required to get Kadence to recognise that such a field is available as a dynamic source.
