Show JetEngine Meta Fields in Query Loop

Another way to use the meta fields with Stackable is dynamic data in the Query Loop block. Go to the post you have created, place the Query Loop on the page, and the desired design with the Design Library inside it.

Then follow the steps we have taken before — press the “Dynamic Fields” button and find the needed meta field in the Field list. Don’t forget to click the “Apply” button.

Build Meta Fields for Taxonomies

Also, you can display the Taxonomy of the post. Firstly, make sure you have created a taxonomy.

Then head to the needed post and add any Stackable block. Find the “Dynamic Fields” button and adjust the following settings.

Select “Current Post” as a Dynamic Source and pick the “Post Taxonomy” Field. As well, choose the needed Taxonomy Type and Display Option.
