title: Wordpress ACF get_field( ) not returning value
body: <p>I am using the <code>advanced custom field</code> plugin for <code>Wordpress</code>. I am having difficulty displaying a <code>field</code> on my page. </p>
  
  <p>Basically I've created a field group and assigned <code>id's</code> to the members of that group. I then use the <code>get_field('field_name')</code> function to store the value of this field in a variable and <code>echo</code> it on the screen. However this is returning <code>false</code>. </p>
  
  <p>I've also tried using <code>the_field('field_name')</code> but this returns <code>null</code>. I then read somewhere If you are trying to access a field outside of the Wordpress loop you must pass the <code>post id</code> as a parameter to the <code>get_field()/the_field()</code> methods.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried that and still the same result...Does anyone have any idea as to what is the problem? </p>
  
  <p>This is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php get_header();
        $postID = get_the_ID();
        the_field('the-title', $postID); //Nothing being returned...
        die(); 
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
