Topic: Need to append a custom field to title in widget...

[jschodde]

I have a classifieds site and I need to display the item price after the post title in the widget (I did something similar to the WP-Post Views plugin).

I can't figure out which lines of code to edit for this change in wp-email.php. My desired results are like this:

Top 10 Most Emailed Ads
-----------------------------
2008 Arctic Cat Thundercat - $9500
2005 Polaris Trailboss - $2400
etc...

Thanks!

if you did it with wp-postviews.php, it is the same, wp-email.php. You may want to take a look at the function at 758, get_mostemailed()

Forgot to mention that I'm on WP2.8.2 using WP-Email 2.5.

Here's what I did starting at line 1543 in wp-email.php:

foreach ($mostemailed as $post) {
   // JAS 7/29/09 - Added next two lines to display price with post title.
   $ad_currency = get_option('currency');
   $ad_price = $ad_currency.get_post_meta($post->ID, "price", true);
   
   // JAS 7/29/09 - Original Code
   //$post_title = get_the_title();
   
   // JAS 7/29/09 - New Code...
   $post_title = get_the_title().' - '.$ad_price;


Do you see anything wrong with this?

Thanks,
Jeff

Nope I don't see anything wrong with that. You may want to do a var_dump($post->ID) to see if it does return the ID. if no you can try get_the_id();
