Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

I added a New Custom Field called:
name_casino

How do I echo this variable in my page?

I had something like this:
<? echo $bfa_ata['name_casino']; ?>
and this:
<? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'name_casino', true) ?>

First you need a plugin like 'exec-php' inorder to have php in the page.
the first example you show is meaningless since the custom field has nothing to do with Atahualpa and '$bfa_ata[...]' is the Bytes For All (the theme) array of variables .

your second try should work.

Oke exec-php is installed, but don't know what you mean after that.

Which code do I must use to echo a custom field?

the PHP function 'echo()' will echo a field - for example
HTML Code:
<?php echo "hello world"; ?>
will echo 'hello world'.

To echo custom fields you need to know how to access them. You should look thru the wordoress codex (http://codex.wordpress.org/) to find a function that and/or instrctions to find the filed.

This has nothing to due with the theme since you are doing it in a post it will apply to all themes.
