    Thank you, Shabti Kaplan, for creating this masterpiece! The Advanced Queries plugin has been an absolute lifesaver, seamlessly integrating dynamic content and custom queries into my Elementor Pro projects. It’s significantly enhanced my workflow, and I’m deeply grateful for this invaluable tool. I eagerly anticipate future updates. *****

    Thank you so much! This specifically helped me show the ACF Related Post Objects in an Elementor Page Template. Just an FYI, I had trouble working out what my custom field key was, as it was a sub-field… but I worked out – I had to append the “parent field” key in front… so “choose_resources” , for me became “upcominng_events_1_choose_resources“
