    Hi,

    I have made a custom field in post pages. It’s called “address”.
    I want to use this field as the (get weather by..) city.
    The following is echo to get the field.

    <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘address’, true); ?>

    Is there a way to use this custom field as the city selected?

    Hi,

    WordPress plugins sanitize all input fields to prevent the execution of any malicious code.

    In one of the next releases, I am going to add a feature that allows using a custom field name for the city input. Then you would enter “@address” in the city name field and the plugin reads the custom field “address” to get to the city name.

    In the next couple of days. I am already testing it in a development environment.

    The functionality has been added to version 5.6.11. Please update to this version and then use ‘@address’ in the “search by city name” field.
