Tell us what you are trying to do?
So I am trying to use a toolset custom field within a divi module field. I know there used to be a method of getting custom fields or values in a module with a format like this:
{!{wpv-post-excerpt item="@featured-post.parent" length="45" count="word" more="..."}!}

Where instead of using the brackets typical shortcode format. Is there a way to get this format to work with custom fields so something like this?
{!{wpcf-CUSTOMEFIELDSLUG output='raw'}!}

The reason is I am using a dynamic template within divi to have all of my posts fit a format. I know Toolset has the ability to do this, but I would rather try to use Divi as it is used for all other templates for the site.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no alternate way to display that shortcode.

There are two ways you can display custom fields. Using Types shortcode:

{!{types field='your-field-slug' output='raw'}!}{!{/types}!}

OR
You could try:

{!{wpv-post-field name='wpcf-CUSTOMEFIELDSLUG'}!}
