    Is there an easy way to combine the output displayed of two fields (first_name last_name) into one (such as full_name) without being a PHP or WP developer? This plugin is great, but it’s frustrating not being able to do something as simple as displaying 2 fields as one. I think I’ve read through all of the documentation and it makes about as much sense as a screen door on a submarine to me.

    Hi, yes, I’m sorry about that. The plugin does require some technical knowledge to get the most out of it. This is largely because it would be far too complicated to implement as settings all the little tweaks users want. Instead, I have constructed the plugin with an accessible architecture that allows a lot of customization…with the requirement that some understanding of things like CSS, HTML and PHP are required.

    OK, I’m pretty good with CSS and HTML and I have a little bit of knowledge of PHP. I understand working with the templates and how to call them, but what I’m not understanding is how to display the contents of a field. Guess I’ll just have to brush up on PHP and keep trying.

    Take a look at this article:

    Using the PDb_Template class in your custom templates

    It provides an easy way to simply show field values.
