I'm trying to add a header, image, and other elements and selecting "Dynamic Source" as seen in https://toolset.com/glossary/dynamic-fields/

However, instead of "Current Post", i'm trying to select "Other Post" and then choosing the post I want to pull information from so that we can insert a custom/curated "related" post instead of using category or tags to related posts.

Whenever I pick the post/page, the field remains blank instead. See video screencast hidden link

Is this not what this feature is for?

Hi Janna

That doesn't look right. I suspect there may be an error shown or some revealing details in the network request reply in the browser console.

Would it be possible to get access to your staging site to take a look?

Let me mark your next reply as private so that we can get log-in credentials from you—you may want to create a temporary admin user for us to use that you can later delete. And be sure to have a current backup of your site.

Can you also confirm the url of where we can see the problem.

Hello,

I have tried the URL you mentioned above, I see lots of JS errors and 500 errors, see my screenshot 500error.jpg

It means there are PHP errors in your website, please try these:
1) check if there is any PHP error in your website:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/debugging-sites-built-with-toolset/#php-debugging

2) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate all other plugins, and switch to WordPress default theme 2022, and test again

3) If the problem is fixed, activate other plugins/theme one by one, try to locate the problem plugin/theme
