• I have a test website here.

    I created custom fields (called ‘image1’, ‘image2’, etc) with an image path as the value field. The ‘image1_label’ field has a value of ‘1’, which will be linked to view the images in the lightbox. (See the numbers below ‘Process Sketches’ on the test page above.

    I am using the documentation found here and on the developer’s website here.

    With the above documentation, I added a functions.php file withe the following code:

    <?php function bd_parse_post_variables(){
    // bd_parse_post_variables function for WordPress themes by Nick Van der Vreken.
    // please refer to bydust.com/using-custom-fields-in-wordpress-to-attach-images-or-files-to-your-posts/
    // for further information or questions.
    global $post, $post_var;
    
    // fill in all types you'd like to list in an array, and
    // the label they should get if no label is defined.
    // example: each file should get label "Download" if no
    // label is set for that particular file.
    $types = array('image' => 'no info available',
    'file' => 'Download',
    'link' => 'Read more...');
    
    // this variable will contain all custom fields
    $post_var = array();
    foreach(get_post_custom($post->ID) as $k => $v) $post_var[$k] = array_shift($v);
    
    // creating the arrays
    foreach($types as $type => $message){
    global ${'post_'.$type.'s'}, ${'post_'.$type.'s_label'};
    $i = 1;
    ${'post_'.$type.'s'} = array();
    ${'post_'.$type.'s_label'} = array();
    while($post_var[$type.$i]){
    echo $type.$i.' - '.${$type.$i.'_label'};
    array_push(${'post_'.$type.'s'}, $post_var[$type.$i]);
    array_push(${'post_'.$type.'s_label'},  $post_var[$type.$i.'_label']?htmlspecialchars($post_var[$type.$i.'_label']):$message);
    $i++;
    }
    }
    }
    ?>

    Then I used the magic function to call the images and links:

    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();   bd_parse_post_variables(); 
    
             ?>
    
            <div class="post">
    
                <div class="entry">
                    <?php the_content(); ?> 
    
    <!-- Display the list of links -->
    <ul class="process">
    <?php while(count($post_images) > 0): ?>
     <li>
    <a href="<?php echo array_shift($post_images); ?>" title="Process Sketches">
    <?php echo array_shift($post_images_label); ?>
    </a>
    </li>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    </ul>

    Everything works, but it’s outputting the ‘image1’ and ‘image2’ custom field names above the content (where I called the bd_parse_post_variables(); ).

    Does anyone know why it’s happening and how to remove this?

    Thanks!

    Does anyone have any thoughts about why it’s outputting the custom field name? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
