    …with a catch. I’m trying to pull the custom field values into a page separate from the posts.

    Getting the_title and the_content works perfectly, however the custom field is not posted.

    I’ve created custom posts called jobs and within those custom posts are a custom field called testJobs. Ideas? Everything here works except the custom field output.

    Hah. Success. I knew the main issue was post->ID, as far as I know, that calls to the current post/page your on.

    Replace:
    <?php global $wp_query; $postid = $wp_query->post->ID; echo get_post_meta($postid, 'testJobs', true);?>

    With:
    <?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'testJobs', true);?>

    Hope this helps someone else. Now on to my new problem… how to turn testJobs (file upload) into a link and not just the ID of the file.
