Though I follow the directions. I can't seem to to display any of my Custom Fields in the footer with the %meta('fieldname')%

Any Help?

A bug it seems, still looking... Thanks for finding

Thanks for the response. I thought I was losing it. I'll stop banging my head.

I think I found a fix: in functions/bfa_postinfo.php, insert at line 10 (in meta_values()):

global $post;

I was able to use the above code in the theme options page "Post/Page Info Items" to create a byline which only shows if a certain custom field is defined:

<?php global $post; if (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'editor', TRUE)) { ?>
Edited by %meta('editor')%
<?php } ?>

hope this helps; I'd be interested to know if there's a more 'proper' way of fixing this.

I replaced the post meta callback function, the second function from top in bfa_postinfo.php, with this

PHP Code:

// Callback function for post meta replacement
function meta_values($matches) {
    $meta_key = $matches[1];
    // "get_post_custom_values" returns an array. Turn it into a string, separated by commata
    $meta_values = implode(", ", get_post_custom_values($meta_key));
    return $meta_values;
} 


In case there are several custom fields with the same name, it list them all separated by comma.

Thanks Flynn, your code works. Question--is is possible to make these custom fields link to other posts with the same value? Like tags, but filtered down to one attribute that's being tagged.

For example, I'm putting up posts that contain assignments for classes I've taken. One of my custom fields is the course number that assignment was completed for. When I display that custom field under my post (or wherever), could I make it link all other posts/assignments that share that course number in the coursenumber custom field?

Here's the site I'm looking to apply this to: http://www.valdosta.edu/~makastellec/portfolio/?cat=3
