Hello,
I used this code to add a custom field to the title but I realized that it also adds the field to all the main navigation tabs. HOw can I fix this?
this is the code
//this can go in the themes functions.php
// or into a site specific/custom functions plugin.
function modified_ee_title($title, $sep) {
global $post;
$postype = get_post_type( $post );
//if not an EE event, return
if($postype != “espresso_events”) { return $title; }
//get the custom/meta fields
$meta = get_post_custom($post_id);
//if the meta field called abc doesnt exist, return
//obviously change abc to the actual meta key…
if( !isset($meta[‘abc’]) ) { return $title; }
//modify the title
$title = $title . ‘ ‘ . $meta[‘abc’][0];
//return the modified title
return $title;
}
add_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘modified_ee_title’, 10, 2 );
thanks

Hi Cara,
This looks like the code that Dean posted here:
http://pastebin.com/jRzLjsGj
I can suggest wrapping the conditional so that it also checks to see if it’s in the loop.
So where it has this:
if( !isset($meta['abc']) ) { return $title; }
you can change to this:
if( !isset($meta['abc']) || ! in_the_loop() ) { return $title; }
Aside from that, it looks like there’s a typo where it says:
$meta = get_post_custom($post_id);
that should be changed to:
$meta = get_post_custom($post->id);

Hi JOsh, unfortunately your correction do not make the field show at all…
is there another way to target just the title in the events?

Hi,
Changing it here should do it:
//if not an EE event, return
if($postype != "espresso_events" || !in_the_loop() ) { return $title; }

I’ve updated the code here http://pastebin.com/jRzLjsGj

HI Dean,
this modified code with your suggestion is not returning anything
function modified_ee_title($title, $sep) {
global $post;
$postype = get_post_type( $post );
//if not an EE event, return
if($postype != “espresso_events” || !in_the_loop() ) { return $title; }
//get the custom/meta fields
$meta = get_post_custom($post_id);
//if the meta field called abc doesnt exist, return
//obviously change abc to the actual meta key…
if( !isset($meta[‘abc’]) ) { return $title; }
//modify the title
$title = $title . ‘ ‘ . $meta[‘abc’][0];
//return the modified title
return $title;
}
add_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘modified_ee_title’, 10, 2 );

Hi Cara,
It looks like the typo still needs fixing. Where it says:
$meta = get_post_custom($post_id);
that should be changed to:
$meta = get_post_custom($post->id);
Also, it’s not clear from the way you are posting code to the forums, but you will need to make sure that your code has proper single quotes (not curly quotes).
Here’s the code I’m using on my test site, and I can verify it works:

Glad you got it working!
For future reference/readers, I’ve updated the code to fix that typo (it was working on my system for some bizarre reason!)
