    How can I get the content of a text block in a custom portfolio layout to appear as the content in the RSS feed?

    I know I can place text in the “excerpt” and it will show in RSS but I’m using the exerpt field to display a subheading in the Masonry gallery. Also it would be difficult for a client to remember to place their copy in the excerpt field.

    Hi darrylo,

    I’m not sure if that would be possible without heavy modifications but send us admin login details in private and we’ll have a look.

    Thanks,
    Rikard

    Hi,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    Unfortunately, you can’t fetch the content of a specific text block inside the advance layout builder. Use the custom field instead. Add this in the functions.php file:

    function avia_add_images_to_rss_feed($content)
{
	global $post;
	$contentmod = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'customfieldname', true );
	if ( $contentmod ) { $content = $contentmod; }
	return $content;
}

add_filter('the_excerpt_rss', 'avia_add_images_to_rss_feed');
add_filter('the_content_feed', 'avia_add_images_to_rss_feed');

    Create a new custom field called “customfieldname” or anything you want to call it.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Thanks Ismael. How can I enable custom fields for Portfolio? (not available under screen options)

    Hi,

    Add this code:

    //enable custom fields for portfolio items 
add_filter( 'avf_portfolio_cpt_args', 'avf_portfolio_cpt_args_mod', 1 );
function avf_portfolio_cpt_args_mod( $args ) {
	$args['supports'][] = 'custom-fields';
	return $args;
}

    Best regards,

    That works great but when I add a custom field the thumbnail disappears in the feed.
    Is there a way I can include the custom field and the thumbnail image in the RSS feed?

    I tried like this but it only shows one or the other not both:

    //add custom field – feed – to feed for portfolio
    function avia_add_images_to_rss_feed($content)
    {
    global $post;
    if ( has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) ){
    $content = ‘<p>’ . get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, ‘medium’ ) . ‘</p>’ . get_the_excerpt();}

    $contentmod = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘feed’, true );
    if ( $contentmod ) { $content = $contentmod; }
    return $content;
    }

    add_filter(‘the_excerpt_rss’, ‘avia_add_images_to_rss_feed’);
    add_filter(‘the_content_feed’, ‘avia_add_images_to_rss_feed’);

    Hi,

    Please try this instead:

    function avia_add_images_to_rss_feed($content)
{
	global $post;

	$image = '' . get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'medium' ) . '<br/>' . get_the_excerpt();
	$contentmod = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'feed', true );

	if ( has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) || $contentmod ) {
		$contentmod = !empty($contentmod) ? $contentmod : '';
		$image = !empty($image) ? $image : '';
		$content = $image . '<br/>' . $contentmod;
	}

	return $content;
}

add_filter('the_excerpt_rss', 'avia_add_images_to_rss_feed');
add_filter('the_content_feed', 'avia_add_images_to_rss_feed');

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    I’m getting a syntax error on this line:

    if ( has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID || $contentmod ) {

    Hi!

    My bad. There’s a missing bracket:

    if ( has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) || $contentmod ) {

    Best regards,
