    Hello.
    I want to display a Custom Fields from data base outside the loop, for exemple in this plugin (Igit related posts wordpress plugin). I want to disply the custom field after the image generated by this plugin. Can You help me ?

    With this code <?php echo get_post_meta($GLOBALS['current_id'], "custom-field-name", true); ?> in footer.php or sidebar.php everything seems ok, but the custom field not appear if i put this code on the plugin files.

  • Just learned this… You can display custom fields outside of the loop with the following code.

    <?php
global $wp_query;
$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;
echo get_post_meta($postid, 'Your-Custom-Field', true);
wp_reset_query();
?>

    Hope that helps and good-luck!

    Not work. I habe a blank page with this code. Is not ok !

    A blank page is a PHP error. Dig into your server’s error logs to find out why the code didn’t work.

    Turn of the igit-related-posts-with-thumb-images-after-posts plugin and things should work again. Also, you may need to go in via FTP and delete the plugin (back it up first if needed).
