on the post editor page for this post, I added a custom field where CUSTOM FIELD NAME= portfolio-image CUSTOM FIELD VALUE= http://www.shirtsaboutnothing.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/site-elements/test1-sml.jpg and on another post, I have similar values: CUSTOM FIELD NAME= portfolio-image CUSTOM FIELD VALUE= http://www.shirtsaboutnothing.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/site-elements/test2-sml.jpg Then, in the body of the page editor for this page i have the following code towards the bottom, which I thought would spit out those images that i entered in the posts custom fields. <h5>Recent Projects</h5> <div id="recent-projects"> <?php $count = 0; $recentblog = new WP_Query(); $recentblog->query("showposts=3&category_name=Portfolio"); while($recentblog->have_posts()) : $recentblog->the_post() ?> <?php if($count==0) { $count++; ?> <div class="frontpage-project-box-1"> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php $thumb = get_post_custom_values('portfolio-image'); echo $thumb[0]; ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /> <h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4></a> </div> <?php } else { ?> <div class="frontpage-project-box"> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php $thumb = get_post_custom_values('portfolio-image'); echo $thumb[0]; ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /> <h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4></a> </div> <?php } endwhile; ?> </div><!--end recent-projects--> PHP: but for some reason, as you can see, it is not spitting out the images on this page. I'm using the exec-php plugin so putting php code in my page editor should work. please advise what's wrong. thanks!
