Matt,
I am a novice at wordpress, would i put both snippets of code in the functions.php or do i but them in different places.
What i want to do is pull a custom category name and display it instead of the category title.

Here are the snippets I am talking about:

function get_custom_field_value($szKey, $bPrint = false) {
global $post;
$szValue = get_post_meta($post->ID, $szKey, true);
if ( $bPrint == false ) return $szValue; else echo $szValue;
}

Thanks

Thanks, awesome functions! Using the clean_bad_content one to adjust some generated tags from my other shortcodes.

Matt, I installed your code and it works great, except I noticed when i change a page status to a child page instead of a parent/main page… the image in the custom field no longer shows up. Can you help? Here is my code…

CODE ON THE MAIN PAGE TEMPLATE:

ID, ‘featured_image’, true);

if ($postimageurl) {

CODE IN THE FUNCTIONS: ————-

function get_custom_field_value($szKey, $bPrint = false) {

global $post;

$szValue = get_post_meta($post->ID, $szKey, true);

if ( $bPrint == false ) return $szValue; else echo $szValue;

}
