    Hi,
    I added an extra text field to portfolio items using the Types plugin. Now I want to add a new DIV with the content of this field in the portfolio overview page and in the portfolio detail view for each item.

    http://wp-types.com/documentation/user-guides/displaying-wordpress-custom-fields/

    But where do I place the PHP to access the content of the field?

    Hey xhRK2jvC!

    It would probably be easier to use the excerpt for whatever your trying to do but go ahead and send us a link to your portfolio page so we can see how your displaying your posts. You can set your reply as private if you wish.

    I am already using the excerpt for other text. This is how it currently looks like:

    And this is how I want it to look:

    I already created an extra field for the portfolio items, I just don’t know which template file I have to edit to access the data.

    Hey!

    You can see where we display the excerpt on line 473 in /enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/portfolio.php.

    $output .= !empty($excerpt) ? "<div class='grid-entry-excerpt entry-content' ".avia_markup_helper(array('context'=>'entry_content','echo'=>false, 'id'=>$the_id, 'custom_markup'=>$custom_markup)).">".$excerpt."</div>" : '';

    For the single portfolio view you can find that on line 27 in /enfold/includes/loop-portfolio-single.php.

    the_content(__('Read more','avia_framework').'<span class="more-link-arrow">  &rarr;</span>');

    Cheers!

    Thanks, Elliot. After trial and error I ended up adding this just after the lines you mentioned:

    /enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/portfolio.php:474:
    $output .= get_post_meta( $entry->ID, "wpcf-fieldname", true );

    /enfold/includes/loop-portfolio-single.php:28:
    echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), "wpcf-fieldname", true );

    And it works.
