[Resolved] Custom Fields

Hi David,

It’s already possible with some PHP.

For example:

add_action( 'wpsp_before_content', function( $settings ) {
    if ( 123 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_your_custom_meta_key', true );

        if ( $meta ) {
            echo $meta;
        }
    }
} );

These are the available hooks we can “hook” content into:

wpsp_before_wrapper
wpsp_before_header
wpsp_before_title
wpsp_after_title
wpsp_before_content
wpsp_after_content
wpsp_after_wrapper

More will be added as time goes on 🙂

Let me know if you need more info.

No problem 🙂

Yep, the above is definitely the best way to do this still.

With that code, just update the custom field name, and use whatever hook is necessary 🙂

Hi Tom,

What is the best way to get multiple custom fields? Do I need to get each & echo one individually?

I am trying to combine the example above with the one in this post but am struggling a bit.

I have multiple custom fields I want to append to WPSP, eg: event_date, event_description, venue_title etc.

I have a Custom Post Type (using CPT UI) for Events, then using ACF for the additional custom fields.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Tom, forgot to say thanks for this…

You could try this function:

function gwen_limit_text( $text, $limit ) {
    if ( str_word_count( $text, 0 ) > $limit ) {
        $words = str_word_count($text, 2);
        $pos = array_keys($words);
        $text = substr($text, 0, $pos[$limit]) . '...';
    }

    return $text;
}

Then, in your hook, do this:

gwen_limit_text( $your_custom_field, 50 );

50 being the word limit.

The custom meta code? What about taxonomies are you customizing? That code should work for everything if a custom field exists.
