[Resolved] Custom Fields

Perfect!! I have learned a lot with this. Thanks a lot Tom!!!

I have proven that without ‘ . $term->slug . ‘ it also works.

hi tom, is there a step by step somewhere for getting custom field content to display in a list (or ultimately in a carousel)? i have three custom fields in my cpt (cptui/acfpro) and i put this into my functions file, but am unsure how to ‘just hook them’ to get them into my list and ultimately to display as the carousel. [edited for clarity and to add when i put the below code in my functions file, i get a database error, too.]

 
add_action( 'wpsp_before_content','wpsp_add_custom_meta' );
function wpsp_add_custom_meta()
{
    $meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'st-headline', true );
    if ( isset( $meta ) && '' !== $meta )
        echo $meta;
}

add_action( 'wpsp_before_content','wpsp_add_custom_meta' );
function wpsp_add_custom_meta()
{
    $meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'short_testimonial', true );
    if ( isset( $meta ) && '' !== $meta )
        echo $meta;
}

add_action( 'wpsp_before_content','wpsp_add_custom_meta' );
function wpsp_add_custom_meta()
{
    $meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'st-attribution', true );
    if ( isset( $meta ) && '' !== $meta )
        echo $meta;
}

Where do I put this PHP?

You should use one of these methods: https://docs.wpshowposts.com/article/adding-php/

As of right now our primary focus is to build a WPSP block for the block editor, so the current shortcode implementation likely won’t get much more innovation.

At the very least there will be template tags that will allow you to use custom fields. I’m certainly not against further ACF/Toolset support as well, would need to look into that.

Hello Tom,

I followed all of the instructions to display custom fields on my posts and it works great! I was wondering if you have a solution for displaying the custom fields only on hover? I.e. the default state of the post/card is just an image and then when you hover – all of the custom fields are displayed similar to Overlay Style #1 or #2 here – https://demos.wpshowposts.com/cards/

Thanks – Love all of the support you provide for GP and these plugins.
