get_content and entries fieldtype

[stephenmeehanuk]

I'm using the get_content tag, works as expected. However I'm trying to pull in an entires fieldtype and it's not working?

On my home page I'm using this:

{{ get_content from="/our-projects" }} 
    {{ title }}
{{ /get_content }}

On /our-projects I've got an entires fieldtype

{{ featured_projects }}
    {{ project_location }}
{{ /featured_projects }}

I'd like to use that on the home page too, but using it as above doesn't work?

I can see in the get_content docs, it says

If you're using a fieldtype like entries to select which entries you'd like to render, then you don't even need this tag

Is there an additional step to get this working? Running 3.2.32

UPDATE

This works... Even though the docs say the get_content tag isn't required to make this work.

{{ get_content from="/our-projects" }} 
   {{ featured_projects }}
      {{ project_location }}
   {{ /featured_projects }}
{{ /get_content }}

Have I misunderstood the docs?

If in you home page blueprint you had an Entries fieldtype, you can call the field directly. e.g if your fieldtype was called project you could do the follow.

{{ project }}
    {{ featured_projects }}
        {{ project_location }}
    {{ /featured_projects }}
{{ /project }}

As you are fetching from another page using a url instead of a fieldtype you still need the {{ get_content }} tag.

Thanks, I must have misread the docs. Cheers.
