 * Hi,
 * I have created additional fields in my posts. I am able to load the whole post
   in a div using ajax while on the posts loop using this method [https://stanhub.com/load-wordpress-post-content-with-ajax-and-jquery/](https://stanhub.com/load-wordpress-post-content-with-ajax-and-jquery/)
 * I would like to now only be able to load a specific field in the post content.
   Any idea how I may achieve that?
 * Thanks

 * If you want to pull a custom field from a post, you are looking to use information
   stored in the postmeta table. You want to look at this command:

 * Thank you, it worked. Is it possible to have the field load when a user clicks
   for it? to reduce the page size initially.
