    Hi,

    I’m trying to setup my articles so that if I put a link to a PDF in a custom field, it replaces the permalink of the title.

    Eg:

    <?php if ( get_post_meta($post->ID, 'title-link', true) ) : ?>
<h2><a href="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'title-link', true) ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php endif; ?>

    However, what I would also like is if the custom field ‘title-link’ doesn’t have a value, for it to just be the_permalink();

    Does anyone have any tips? I’ve tried with else, elseif but nothing seems to be working.

    Thanks in advance.

  • I believe this should work:

    <?php if ( $title_link = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'title-link', true) ) : ?>
   <h2><a href="<?php echo $title_link; ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php else: ?>
   <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php endif; ?>
