Desperately need help with custom loop in archive

[photoaddictsa]

Hi,

I'm still learning here, decided to give a custom loop a try.

I've got the loop displaying the info I wanted but the code output is all wonky.

Here is the whole code: (I'm using ACF)

<?php
remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'your_custom_loop' );

// Remove custom structural wraps.
remove_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'studio_wrap_open', 6 );
remove_action( 'genesis_after_content_sidebar_wrap', 'studio_wrap_close', 13 );

function your_custom_loop() {

if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post();

echo '<article class="entry">';
    
echo '<div class="entry-content">';
    
    
    echo '<div class="won_by">';
            get_field('team_won_by_x_runs');
    echo '</div>';

    
    echo '<ul class="tvst">';
    
        echo '<li class="team1">';

                echo '<img src="' . get_field('team_1_photo') . '" alt="" />';
            
            	echo '<span class="runswwickets">' . get_field('team_1_runs_wickets') . '</span>';
            
        echo '</li>';
        
        echo '<li class="vs">';
        
            	echo '<h3 class="teamname">' . get_field('team_1') . '</h3>';
            
            echo '<em class="vs">' . VS . '</em>';           
            
            	echo '<h3 class="teamname">' . get_field('team_2') . '</h3>';
            
			echo '<div class="date-venue">';
        
		    echo '<div class="date">';
		                get_field('date'); echo '<em>(GMT+2)</em>';
		        echo '</div>';
		            
		        echo '<div class="venue">';
		                get_field('venue');
		    echo '</div>';
        
        echo '</li>';
        
        echo '<li class="team2">';

                echo '<img src="' . get_field('team_2_photo') . '" alt="" />';
            
            	echo '<span class="runswwickets">' . get_field('team_2_runs_wickets') . '</span>';
        
        echo '</li>';
        
    echo '</ul>';
            
    echo '</div>';

echo '</div>';
echo '</article>';

endwhile; endif;	

}
    
genesis();

This the output:

One is inside <main and other is not, where did I mess up?

I would post the code in a Github Gist and link to it from here.

Thanks for the advice Brad, here is the gist link: https://gist.github.com/photoaddictsa/2343851119a91523940de538a831ac57

Can't test without setting up ACF.

Figured it out, I was over thinking the whole thing a bit.

Working through some of your other tutorials actually helped me figure it out 🙂

Cool. 2 things you might want to consider :

1. Use get_post_meta in replace of get_field

2. Use class_exists to check ACF is active
