Adding _testimonial_by to single post (single.php)

    Hi there
    I recently got my testimonial_slider working great on my site. I have the slider on my side bar with the Read More taking you to a page where it displays only the title of the post and the category. In the actual testimonial slider, I have it though so it displays 45 characters of the post… then read more, and the name of the poster.

    I would like to add the name of the poster in the page where they are “reading more” from…but how do I do this? I know this is on single.php and comments etc are done by <?php the_category(‘, ‘) ?> but if I try <?php _testimonial_by(‘, ‘) ?> it doesn’t work or calls to a function that hasn’t been defined. is there an easy way here to display the name of the poster? I have even tried to <?php echo $_testimonial_by ; ?> but that doesn’t work either. Its been years since I have done php…and am very new to word press so if someone can help me out here I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

  • Hi there,

    To add Poster name on testimonial page, please put following php code in the loop of single.php

    <?php $postid = get_the_ID(); echo get_post_meta($postid, '_testimonial_by', 'true'); ?>

    Let me know if it helps,

    Thank you,

    Regards,
    Sagar.
