Title: Custom fields Last modified: July 3, 2017 --- # Custom fields * Resolved [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/) * (@alpph) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/) * Hi * I create Custom Post Types (CPT) and Custom Fields (CF) with Toolset Types from OnTheGoSystems. * CPT slug is ‘types_recette’ and one CF slug is ‘sous_titre’ * I modified the content.php file in the child theme to display all the fields of CPT ‘types_recette’. * I can display what I want from my CPT with Advanced Post List **without** the values of the custom fields. * How can I do that ? * Thanks for your answer - This topic was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/). - This topic was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/).

There is also a custom php shortcode. * Currently, most of the information and documentation for APL has been getting added to the [GitHub Wiki](https://github.com/Advanced-Post-List/advanced-post-list/wiki). It’s a work-in-progress, but 0.4 is likely to have new documentation that correlates to it. * Thread Starter [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/) * (@alpph) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/#post-9293909) * Hi, * Thanks for your help. I understand the working of php_function. * This works : * `[php_function name="my_custom_field"]` * ``` function my_custom_field () { $retour = ''; if (types_render_field( "sous_titre", array( ) ) ) { $retour = (types_render_field( "sous_titre", array( 'raw' => true) )); }; return $retour ; } ``` * But this does not works : * `[php_function name="my_custom_field" param="sous_titre"]` * ``` function my_custom_field ($field_name) { $retour = ''; if (types_render_field( $field_name, array( ) ) ) { $retour = (types_render_field( $field_name, array( 'raw' => true) )); }; return $retour ; } ``` * Any Idea that can help ? * Thanks * Plugin Author [EkoJR](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ekojr/) * (@ekojr) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/#post-9294441) * The first param MUST be a WP_Post variable `$post`. I think that may solve your issue. * I also recently finished writing a [Tutorial on PHP_Function Shortcode](https://github.com/Advanced-Post-List/advanced-post-list/wiki/Tutorial---PHP_Function-Shortcode). * Thread Starter [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/) * (@alpph) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/#post-9294910) * Hi, * ``` function my_custom_field ( $post, $myfield ) { $retour = ''; if (types_render_field( $myfield , array( ) ) ) { $retour .= (types_render_field( $myfield , array( 'raw' => true) )); } ; return $retour ; } ``` * That works. Hurrah !! * I reword your answer : there is an implicit first parameter $post, the param passed with [php_function…] is in fact the second parameter. * Please add a example with in your tutorial. * Thanks - This reply was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/). - This reply was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/). - This reply was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/). * Thread Starter [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/) * (@alpph) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/#post-9295024) * Hi, * Just a question : How to pass more as one parameter ? * Thanks * Plugin Author [EkoJR](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ekojr/) * (@ekojr) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/#post-9297952) * Currently, there can only be 1 param passed. I haven’t had any need for it, although I think I remember contemplating a redesign at one point, and I thought about passing an array of params, but I wanted to keep it simple for others, and prior to 0.3.2 it wasn’t a possibility to implement multiple parameters. * _Thinking it over:_ - I can’t changed too much with others already using the php_function. - I don’t want to add additional call to function params. If I did, it would be 3, but then there would be the confusion with php param erros. - The param type will always be a string due to how WP saves the data * With that in mind, I did have another thought. Add the whole shortcode attribute array as the 3rd param, and let others handle the data on their own; this method is actually relatively easy for others to do. This would offer both a novice, and an advanced method which would have to handled its own set of data accordingly. - This reply was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [EkoJR](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ekojr/). * Thread Starter [Alph](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpph/) * (@alpph) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-253/#post-9299201) * Hi, * I finished the transition from an other plugin with the same functions, but with no update since a long time. * See : * [http://www.papinette.fr/?page_id=300](http://www.papinette.fr/?page_id=300) * About more that one param, it was just a question for completness.

In APL’s case, majority of the configurations are applied on the admin side as a Preset, instead of a collection of shortcodes and/or shortcode attributes. Which is one of the things I always preferred in order to make APL a bit more manageable instead of making a muck out of things. * The other plugin does seem to have very high ratings, and I’m kind of curious what made it unique. Perhaps if I get some time spare time I’ll check it out.
