Showing Custom Fields on Single Post pages

Hi Ismael,

Thanks for your reply.
I have been looking around and figured out the way I want it:

• I want to use a typical enfold / avia solution.
• I use a child theme, so I added the shortcodes code in functions.php of the child theme.

  add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes', 'avia_include_shortcode_template', 15, 1);
  function avia_include_shortcode_template($paths)
  {
  	$template_url = get_stylesheet_directory();
      	array_unshift($paths, $template_url.'/shortcodes/');
  
  	return $paths;
  }

• I want to add a content element (post-custom-field) to add a special element in the avia layout builder. Therefore I created a special post_custom_fields.php in the directory enfold-child/shortcodes.

I want to choose one of the available custom fields of that post in a drop down list.
So I try to create that drop-down list, and need to fill an array with the meta-key of each custom field. Choosing the meta-key should result in showing the meta-value in frontend. Styling will be no problem.

I have problems creating the dropdown list now.
I only see the “Select One” in my dropdown list.

My code at the moment:

			function popup_elements()
			{

				/* jan */
				/* add dropdown list for custom fields */

				$custom_fields = get_post_custom();
				$all_custom_fields[ 'Select One' ] = null;

				if ( !empty($custom_fields) && !is_wp_error ($custom_fields) ) :
					foreach ($custom_fields as $custom_field ) :
						$all_custom_fields [meta_id] =  "__('$custom_field->meta_key', 'avia_framework') => '$custom_field-meta_key'";
					endforeach;

			  endif;

				$this->elements = array(

                    array(	"name" 		=> __("Do you want to display custom post fields?", 'avia_framework' ),
                        "desc" 		=> __("Do you want to display custom post fields available in the post?", 'avia_framework' ),
                        "id" 		=> "cust_field_name",
                        "type" 		=> "select",
                        "std" 	=> "Quotes",
												"subtype" => $all_custom_fields

											),

I’m still diving into the code, to figure out the problem.
But perhaps you can see the problem.

EDIT:
I want to access all custom fields from the current post, but the post_ID of the current post equals NULL.
I searched and saw that that global variables of WordPress do not work in the Avia Layout Builder.
Is that anyhow possible?

Thanks again,
Jan
