• I’m trying to find a creative solution to a problem I’ve got and need your generous help ??

    I’ve got a tracking script which I’ve got in my footer.php before the </body> tag. The problem is, each script is different for each page.

    Here’s an example:

    <script src="https://www.gotomerchant.com/tracking202/static/landing.php?lpip=946" type="text/javascript"></script>

    The ‘946’ is manually generated elsewhere from the Tracking software.

    For simplicity I want to be able to use a Custom Field to store this number. Then have something like the following in the footer to generate it:

    function tracking_stuff() {
    if (is_single() || is_page()) {
    echo '<script src="https://www.gotomerchant.com/tracking202/static/landing.php?lpip=';
    <<<<<<TRACKING NUMBER HERE>>>>>>>>();
    echo '" type="text/javascript"></script>';
    }
    }
    add_action('thesis_hook_after_html', 'tracking_stuff');

    The only challenge is that because the footer is outside the loop, I am having issues calling the tracking number.

    The above is a bit hacky but I’m only a beginner at PHP, does anybody know how to call Fields from outside the loop?

    Would appreciate your help ??
