# Custom Fields – getting data

 * I’m trying to use the custom fields to change the smooth=id within a ngg smooth
   gallery.
 * Rather than the individual number written i want the post to automatically retrieve
   the number from the custom field, with the correct gallery number as its value.
 * `[smooth=id: 3; width:800; height:600; timed:false; arrows:true; carousel:false;
   links:false; info:true; align:center; frames:true;]`
 * i’ve read through the custom fields guidelines several times and am still pretty
   confused, can someone help?
 * Thanks
 * Sim
