You’re very welcome.

The docs for getting the label of a field as well as the value are here: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/get_field_object/

This means that for the lines like this:

$data_1 = get_field('2g_network');

That returns only the value. So you would now have

$data_1 = get_field_object('2g_network');

Which returns an object with various keys, including “label” and “value”.

Once you have that object, you could change lines like this:

$to_echo .= $data_1;

to lines that use specific parts of that object.

$to_echo .= $data_1["label"] . ': ' . $data_1["value"];

Have fun!

You need to create a custom field (I use the Advanced Custom Fields plugin for that) called hide_author or show_author. The name doesn’t really matter. Let’s say you use show_author. The default setting now is that it won’t show the author unless the show_author box is checked when creating a post. By default, no author boxes are shown with this setting, but can be enabled for each post by check the new custom field box.

Not all post templates show the captions. (Style 2 does, style 4 doesn’t, haven’t played around with the others.)

I had this same need so I installed the plugin Advanced Custom Fields, added a metabox for photographers, and manually displayed the data saved there after the author. I found this a bit of a complicated process if you’ve never done anything like it and had to do a lot of reading. I can try to walk you through it if you want.

One easy way might be to try a plugin like Better Image Credits, which can take some credit fields and automatically output it at the top or bottom of your post, or other settings.

Got it! 😀 Note to self: don’t rely on Advanced Custom Fields’s have_rows() function to know what post it is if I’m in a module…

For anyone else having a similar problem with ACF: just remember to pass the function the $post object when you see the theme code using $this 🙂

+1 on Advanced Custom Fields…. been using this for a project and it works very well. There is no conflict unless you create a new template with field that has existing field name… which I don’t think it would let you do anyway.

Thanks a lot for your answer !
I was thinking to try something like this.
I just wonder how advanced custom field plugin will react, i hope it will not delete existing customfield !!! I will try if you say so 🙂

Hi,

My version is the 3.0.

I istalled and configured Advanced Custom Fields and

I did this http://screencast.com/t/5FOgXORGMMp and this http://screencast.com/t/A7KWAo2hlNRf and even this http://screencast.com/t/xFyqF7MGDa (for child themes).

I got the same error message.

The line is different from your Screencast figure, the php line for content_inline has “and $tds_inline_ad_paragraph > 0” not showed in your picture [http://screencast.com/t/5FOgXORGMMp].

I tried to remove it, but I got the error message either.

Any clues?

Thanks for your support (and patience).

Hi Marius,

I tried to install Advanced Custom Fields like you suggest in the post [https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/function-to-hide-ads-and-function-to-show-author/#post-9187], but I believe the instructions are outdated.

I can’t see this image posted by you on Screencast:

Then add this code and !get_field(‘hide_ad’) like here: http://screencast.com/t/5FOgXORGMMpand

AND if i do this: http://screencast.com/t/5FOgXORGMMp

I get this message

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LOGICAL_AND in /home/getro/www/getrao/wp-content/themes/Newspaper-v3/includes/modules/module_modifier/td_module_blog.php on line 41

I’m doing something wrong or the code change since Newspaper Theme Version 3.0?

You might look at the custom fields plugin which lets you add additional fields to your post page and then insert the custom meta fields into your layouts.

Hello Radu,

I don’t quite understand your question. I have already indicated where i’ll love to add the labels in the screencasts.

Just so there’s no confusion, i’ll take it from the top.

I’m Using advanced custom fields plugin to create custom fields for my document Category.

I’ve created three fields:

<li>Name of Author</li>
<li>Date of Publication</li>
<li>Name of Publisher</li>

Now ACF Normally posts only the values of the fields to the database and not the Field Names. In a normal post loop i could use echo to display a Field Name Text and then concatenate it with the field value so that my front end would look like this

Field Name: Field Value

due to the $buffy optimisation, i am unable to use echo so i’m looking for a workaround that would enable me add Field Name (Labels) automatically to each Field Value.

Concerning the issue of adding classes to the div, give me the CSS code which you believe will style the solution and i will add it to the CSS.

Like i stated in my last reply, this is a local development server. WordPress installed on XAMPP on my PC, so i can’t give you any link because the site is not live.

I’m looking forward to having this issue resolved and also it takes too long between replies so effectively this issue has taken us four days now. Please see how you can expedite a solution i’d appreciate it much.

Regards,
Effiong
