You need to concatenate just the functions themselves like this: function default_content($content) { global $post; if ($post->post_type == ‘my-custom-post-type’) { $content .= ‘<p style=”text-align: center;”><strong>Custom Field Text here: ‘. get_post_meta( $post->ID, “custom-field-1”, true ).'</strong></p> <p style=”text-align: … Read more
You can filter on meta values using query_posts() or a new WP_Query() for example: query_posts( array( ‘meta_key’ => ‘slideshow’, // the custom field key to check ‘meta_value’ => ‘1’, // the value eg. 0 or 1 ‘meta_compare’ => ‘=’ // check for equivalence ) ); // your loop goes here wp_reset_query(); There is a lot … Read more
