Hello. I'm trying to create a new layout in the Layout Editor, I'd like to add an ACF Post Object. However, when I click to add, the field that generates is titled "ACF Text" not "ACF Post Object" and when I enter the key name, it breaks the layout on the front end and will not display the related post object etc. Also, because it's loading a text field, there isn't any html wrapper or customization options I can add around the field. Do you have any documentation or instructions on how to properly add an ACF Post Object to a layout?

Thanks for your guidance...

Perfect, thank you. I didn’t realize that’s what the {guid} shortcode was for. Works perfectly, thanks!

The field supports HTML, so you can surround the dynamic value with HTML markup.

Ah, yes it must have been a caching issue, seems to be working now. Thank you. One last question. How do I format “Template” field to include a link wrapper around the title to link to the relevant post?
