Block Modifications/additions + custom field

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 109

I have a homepage with block 4 and 5’s on it.

I notice block 12 has a read more button.

Could someone please guide me to modyfing these blocks and the archives blocks too.

Basically I want to add a “price” field to the image/excerpt.

I assume I set up a custom field for each post, field being “price” and each post I enter the price in that field, one post may be $99 another $114 etc.

I wouldn’t mind doing it like this: http://www.localamsterdamtours.com

I like the from $22 text added to the block and I like the “book now button” too. Any suggestions.

Our site is p a r a d i s e f o u n d t o u r s (dot c o m)

Thanks for any suggestions…

oh, I have installed Advanced Custom Field and read the post: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/where-do-i-insert-advanced-custom-fields/

So where do insert for the blocks, after the excerpt appears?

thank you

I created a field in Advanced Custom Fields plugin and tinkered with loop-single.php and added the code

<p><?php the_field('price'); ?></p>

And it showed up, Great! but that was just a test.

Could you please guided me where I can insert it after the excerpt on the blocks on my homepage (blocks 4 and 5) and of course the category and tag pages. Is that the archive template?

Also would you have any handy css code that I can play with and adjust the style, perhaps something to start me off with…

thank you so much!

Hi,

The block 4 was created using module 2(this module is also used on block 2) and the block 5 is used module 3 so this are the files where you can try to add your code. For modules you can try something like this:

<p><?php the_field('price', $this->post->ID); ?></p>

To customize the price you can try to add a class to the paragraph and used it for css – http://screencast.com/t/JLtppCV8

Thanks!
