Hi Elliot,

I think this is misunderstanding. I do not need customization from you and I know that the ‘key’ has to be replaced with my custom field name.

I have 2 questions:

1. I need you to tell me which files need to be changed to have custom fields displayed in a post in a blog roll view, single post view, category view. You have said I need to make changes to /enfold/includes/loop-index.php.

Is this the only file in Enfold theme that is responsible for rendering all the above mentioned post views (blog roll view, single post view, category view, etc.)? Or are there other files that also need editing?

2. You have also mentioned that I can copy /enfold/includes/loop-index.php to the Enfold-child theme folder. I did that and put echo get_post_meta( $the_id, ‘key’, true ); However this does not work. It is only when changes are made to the file located in the main theme /enfold/includes/ that they work but not in the child-theme.

So the second question is how to copy /enfold/includes/loop-index.php to the Enfold-child theme folder, so that changes made to this file in the child-theme actually work?

Hope this explains my problem better than the previous post.

Many thanks again for your help.
I really appreciate it.

regards,
P

Hi there,

I have copied the file loop-index.php to the child theme folder added the following code and it does not work – nothing is displayed:

echo get_post_meta( $the_id, 'key', true );

I have 4 custom fields in each language. I need to display them in a specific order under the post title on all pages where t=posts are (eg. blog roll, single post, specific category/tag post)

Below is the code I used in twenty ten a couple of years ago. It illustrates the principle:

<div class="pprow">
		<?php $myid = $post->ID; // Assign this using a variable, or however you were before, eg. $post->ID

		$data = $wpdb->get_results("
		SELECT * FROM $wpdb->postmeta WHERE post_id = $myid
		AND meta_key NOT LIKE '\_%'
		ORDER by (CASE WHEN meta_key = 'Composed in' THEN 0
				WHEN meta_key = 'Duration' THEN 1
	       			WHEN meta_key = 'Instrumentation' THEN 2
	       			WHEN meta_key = 'Movements' THEN 3 
	       			WHEN meta_key = 'Rok' THEN 4
	       			WHEN meta_key = 'Czas' THEN 5
	       			WHEN meta_key = 'Instrumentacja' THEN 6
	       			WHEN meta_key = 'Części utworu' THEN 7 END)
		"); // meta_key ASC - assign the field to sort e.g. meta_id, meta_key, etc. or specify order using CASE WHEN

		if( !empty( $data ) ) {
			foreach( $data as $result_object ) {
				print '<div class="ppmeta-key">';
				print $result_object->meta_key;
				print ': ';
				print '</div><div class="ppmeta-value">';
				print $result_object->meta_value;
				print '</div>';
				print '<br />';
							}
					}
		?>	
		</div>

Can you please advise how to implement it in Enfold?

Many thanks,
Peter

I managed to find a tutorial which allowed me to incorporate links and lengthening the excerpts, but I couldn’t figure out how to include [audio] elements, and to stop when the <!–more–> tag appears. I’ll get in touch with some friends who already instructed me to use Custom Fields. It’ll take me a while, but I’m good for now.

Basically all I want to do is display the posts the way they are on an archive/category. The only difference is that there would only be one post instead of 10 per page. You can see it this in action under the Podcast page on my site (use login credentials on the top of this thread). Scroll down to the “Latest Episode” section. I’d like to have that show everything up to the <!–more–> break.

Onwards and upwards.

Josue & Ismael,

I’ve installed the WP Open Graph plugin. Customized the settings. And tested a post to see what is coming through. I’m getting this using the Object Debugger for Facebook (Please note, all fields have a value except the Image field). My question is basically, what’s the problem here? I’ve used three plugins, yoast, protocol, and the open graph, and nothing is working. If your’s works then something in my settings is off. I need guidance to figure out how to fix. I just have no idea where to go from here. Thanks so much for your time.

Based on the raw tags, we constructed the following Open Graph properties
fb:admins Array of length: 1

Dear Josue,

Thanks for pointing the right place for modification. I use page template check and following codes work for me.

		//overwrite with custom fields if they are set
		$post_id = avia_get_the_id();
		if ( is_page_template( 'template-gsir.php' ) )   $settings['header_shrinking'] = 'av_header_shrinking_disabled';

Many thanks!

Great I didn’ t see your answer.
It is a good idea, but how do i modify the contact form.
Cause the form was not to send email.
Pkus how can i modify the form itself, i would like to be able to customize it more, abd add regex for the fields and javascript.
Thank you for your help.
It is really appreciated.
Regards.

No,
the page you see is printed out from different custom fields. It’s not built with the visual composer

I can’t use the visual composer (and save a template with that) for 2 reason:

1 – if in the future I want to change the layout I will have to manually change all the 100+ entries.
2 – This content is user generated and I don’t want the users to fiddle around with the visual composer. It’s much easier for them to just fill in the custom fields.

If you can tell me if there is some js I can include in the page to have the proper “switch to accordion” with the tabs built with the html structure instead of the shortcode, it woul be really great :-) (refer to the original post to see exactly what the problem is)

Thank you!

best :-)

Thank you very much! When you get a chance can you take a look at that same page. I have added another form field toward the top of the page using Ninja Forms. It may allow us to customize the fields more easily but there appears to be an issue removing the additional space below the form elements. Any tips on how to get the spacing closer to the way it is in the lower Color Section?
