This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I am trying to use a custom URL field as the destination for an Elementor button element, but it's not working correctly.
Solution: In the Shortcode area, use the following syntax:
[types field='twitter-url' post_id='3679' output='raw'][/types]

I am trying to:
I created a custom post field called 'twitter-url' in a custom post type called 'Site Details'. I Used Elementor to edit the page I want the info displayed on and I selected 'Shortcode' from the dynamic list and entered what I think is the correct shortcode for post id 3679 but there is no link showing on the public page.
The source code shows:
but it should show:
Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link in the footer on the right (the word 'twitter').
This is the shortcode I entered:
[types field=‘twitter-url’ post_id=’3679’][/types]
The types filed is a URL and I'm attaching images of the settings. Can you please tell me why I cannot get this to work.
Many thanks,
Barry.
