    Hi there,

    i have a custom post type for logos(added as thumb) and links (added inside a metabox).
    i would like to add a post slider with these posts but instead of linking to permalink to link to the above metabox link.

    how could i achieve this?
    thanks,
    C

    Hi cezarneaga!

    When you say “metabox” you are referring to custom fields added to each post?

    Cheers!

    Hi!

    Elliott is out this time so I will be handling this request if you don’t mind. Anyway, I’m not sure how you created the custom post type but if you want to modify the post slider element, edit the config-templatebuilder > avia-shortcodes > postslider.php file. You might need to modify line 290:

    $link 		= get_permalink($the_id);

    This function might come in handy: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post_meta/

    Cheers!

    found it and it worked
    for others, replace with: get_post_meta( $the_id, ‘name_of_custom_field’,true );

    thanks,
