Dynamic Values

Updated 2 months ago

Dynamic values fetch and show data from a specific source. There are 3 types of dynamic values based on their source:

• Global – values are specified site-wide and do not vary from page to page. Examples: site icon, site title, homepage URL, custom fields from the ACF Options page, etc.
• Current page – values depend on the currently viewed page. Examples: post title, featured image, post taxonomy, custom field assigned to a page, etc.
• Current Grid/List item – values depend on the post/page which corresponds to the Grid/List item. This is Impreza specific, all those values can be used only via Grid Layouts. Examples: post title, featured image, post taxonomy, custom field, etc.
