You’re a lifesaver Cátia.

For anyone using get_posts or similar to manually loop through attachments, her solution still works. For example:

<?php
	$thumb_id = get_post_thumbnail_id(get_the_ID()); // gets the post thumbnail ID

	$args = array(
		'order' => 'ASC',
		'orderby' => 'menu_order',
		'post_type' => 'attachment',
		'post_parent' => $post->ID,
		'post_mime_type' => 'image',
		'post_status' => null,
		'numberposts' => -1,
		'exclude' => $thumb_id
	);

	$attachments = get_posts($args);
	if ($attachments) {
		foreach ($attachments as $attachment) {
			echo wp_get_attachment_image($attachment->ID, 'medium', false);
		}
	}
?>

hutorny –

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

this works perfect. it was very useful when hardwiring the rel=”shadowbox” attr in to automatic gallery insertion (via do_shortcode())

THANK YOU!!!

also – magic fields is superior for most applications involving post field customization, even if it’s mostly aesthetic in its approach. it does what one would expect pods to do, in a much simpler fashion.

Agreed 100% with olivernielsen – this plugin has tons of issues to work out before it can be considered usable. Nevermind whether or not someone bothered to ask for help in the forms – there’s a lot wrong with Pods including a very basic syntax error in pods/uninstall.php that makes it impossible to uninstall the standard wordpress way. Tons of database problems too – some potentially injectable and some just dirty.

Neat idea, looking forward to its evolution. Not a good option just yet.

thanks porscheguy!!! solved!

works beautifully now. i didn’t realize that the form area design would not automatically load in to the message body. like jbryant1027, i was thrown off by the ‘copy this into form left.’ also when i tried to tinker around with the message body at first, i’d dump the entire contents of the custom tags in – rather than cutting out all but the identifier. So it’d just send me the text i put in “message body” rather than what users submitted. but doing what you said works great, and for anyone else with this issue, your “Message Body” should look something like this (plus whatever formatting / text you want to add):

[your-name]
[your-email]
[text-107]
[radio-505]
[menu-965]
[textarea-245]
[text-880]
