    I got this working by hacking the [pass] shortcode to allow passing a FIELD with current post id.

    In the pass_shortcode function in ccs-loop.php file, right under this line of code
    $field_value = get_post_meta( $post_id, $field, true );
    I added the following:

    if ($field == 'currentpostid') {
	$field_value = get_the_id();
  }

    I then modified the above CCS shortcode block as follows:

    [pass field="currentpostid"]
  [loop type="post" id="{FIELD}"]
    [for each="founders"]
        <a href="[url]/founders/[each slug]">
            [each name]
        </a>
    [/for]
  [/loop]
[/pass]

    I’m sure there’s a better way to do this, but for a temp hack, this works.

    Hope this helps.

    Eliot, I just saw this (was away), and it is great. thanks!

    The code you provided displays “founders” for all posts. Anyway to limit this only to currently displayed post? I saw that you have a ID parameter to filter on post id, but couldn’t figure the syntax to use with a post id shortcode. Is there a better way to do this?

    here’s what i tried

    [loop type="post" id="post_id"]
    [for each="founders"]
        <a href="[url]/founders/[each slug]">
            [each name]
        </a>
    [/for]
[/loop]

    Eliot,

    Thanks for your response. I thought of trying something similar to what you’ve suggested, and it works so long as you have one tag on the post for a specific taxonomy. But for a post that is tagged with two “founders” (for instance bill gates & steve jobs), the generated html looks like this:

    <a href="http://mysite.com/founders/bill-gates steve-jobs">
    Bill Gates, Steve Jobs
</a>

    Any ideas on how I can generate a link for each tag?

    Cheers,
