Dears,
Is there any way how to make link from post detail back to search and filter resuls of one atribute?
For example I use custom field color for posts. From posts detail with set blue color I would like to link back to results for BLUE color posts

http://www.livit.cz/fotka-4/ see on the right BARVA (color)

That link has a wrongly formed url.

You want to be able to dynamically make the correct search url to call that color?

Does your theme allow you to place a shortcode there? If so, you can use a plugin that will allow you to put a single shortcode there for all posts, but that shortcode can contain php that will then call from the ACF field the correct color and construct the url that you desire.

Hi I am using ACF – this is Link in admin

Kategorie: <a href="<strong">"http://www.livit.cz/fotogalerie-vysledky/?_sfm_Kategorie=[acf field=" {$field_name}"]"></strong>[acf field="Kategorie"]</a><br>
Barva: <a>http://www.livit.cz/fotogalerie-vysledky/?_sfm_barva=[acf field=" barva"]</strong>">[acf field="barva"]</a>

I did not find any suitable plugin for this, could recommend me some that will be able to link to display results of SearchForm
Thanks
Jan

This is the plugin you need:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-snippets/

But, you need to call the ACF fields using the php method. Let me have my breakfast, and I will give it a go for you. In the meantime, install that plugin.

So, to use this plugin, in WP Admin go to Settings -> Post Snippets

Click Add New Snippet

In the title, give it a shortcode name (must be a valid WP slug name), for example:

my-color-link

Check the Shortcode and PHP Code checkboxes.

In the Snippet textarea copy and paste this:

$livit_kategorie = get_field('Kategorie');
$livit_barva = get_field('barva');
$livit_url = get_site_url() . '/fotogalerie-vysledky/';
echo '<strong><span style="color: #c62daa;">Kategorie</span></strong>: <a href="';
echo $livit_url;
echo '?_sfm_Kategorie=';
echo $livit_kategorie;
echo '">';
echo $livit_kategorie;
echo '</a><br /><strong><span style="color: #c62daa;">Barva</span></strong>: <a href="';
echo $livit_url;
echo '?_sfm_barva=';
echo $livit_barva;
echo '">';
echo $livit_barva;
echo '</a>';

There may be errors in that 😉 as I cannot test it here.

Now all you do is place that shortcode where you want those two lines:

[my-color-link]
