Hi,
Thanks for your response. I am definitely using the correct custom variable field. As mentioned, if I insert the custom snippet variable on a post, it displays as:
Remote_description (custom field).
In search appearance settings, if I type in %%cf_Remote_description%% , then this is the exact output in the meta of a post itself.
Unfortunately, I have too many posts of this type to edit the meta one by one so I’d really like to be able to find a solution to this. Could it be anything to do with the fact that this custom field can sometimes contain a lot of data?
I am trying to add a custom field called ‘Remote_description’ which is essentially the post excerpt.
When I am in an individual post, I can click ‘Insert snippet variable’ and type in ‘R’ and the custom field ‘Remote_description’ will then become an option I can add to the metabox.
When I am in Search Appearance settings, and I click ‘Insert snippet variable’ and type in ‘R’, the ‘Remote_description’ custom field does not appear for me as an option to choose.
I have tried to add the variable manually by typing %%cf_Remote_description%% but all that is being output where I would expect to see the variable is %%cf_Remote_description%%.
I have also tried to type %%cf_wpcf-Remote_description%% but the same thing happens.
Thank you for your help with this matter.
