[Plugin: Magic Fields] Magic Fields won't display

  • I am setting up a WordPress multi-user installation for a client and have everything set up, and he is looking to use Magic Fields v1 to get custom fields displayed on a modified version of Twenty Eleven.

    I have created a custom write panel named “Create Capture Page” with the following fields (by name, not label):

    -header
    -body

    They’re both multiline textboxes, but I can’t seem to get them to display in my Twenty Eleven child theme. I’m putting the following code in the file “sidebar-page.php”: 

    <?php echo get('body'); ?>

    Nothing is showing up though. If you need to see the webpage or anything else I would be happy to. If anybody could help me out though I would very much appreciate it.

    I’m only gonna bump this once. Anybody have any pointers to help me out?

    Don’t know if Magic-Fields team is on this issue but in the mean time you can solve it by using WordPress native custom fields methods:

    code‘code’
    get_post_meta ( $post->ID, ‘my_magic-fields-var-name’, true );
    code‘code’

    You will still have problems with groups and images

    While there’s not an update for magic-fields could someone help on
    how to get around the image request with or without crop and re-size?

    I just downgraded to 3.2.1 to get the plugin to work… but I was just curious as to why it wouldn’t work with 3.3.

    Hi!
    I did a debugging to find out what was causing this.
    And i found an incompatibility on tables collation.

    I changed this tables to utf8_unicode_ci:
    wp_mf_post_meta
    wp_mf_panel_custom_field

    And this field:
    field_name from table wp_mf_post_meta.

    I tested the functions get and get_image and now works fine.

    Tested on:
    Mysql = 5.5.8
    WP = 3.3.1
    MF = 1.5.8.3

    Best regards!
    Doug
