How to include custom field data in Prettyphoto? WordPress
- REFUNDED
I'm currently using Advanced Custom Fields to create a custom field has_the_portrait_sold which will be indicated on my Prettyphoto / Lightbox item.
However, when I use PHP from the example (it is true or false):
if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){
echo "The item has been sold.";
}else{
echo "The item has not been sold";
}
In header.php:
<script type text/javascript>
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$("a[href$='.jpg'], a[href$='.jpeg'],
a[href$='.gif'], a[href$='.png']").prettyPhoto({
theme: 'dark_square',
show_title: true, /* true/false */
social_tools: '<?php the_title(); ?> <?php
if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){
echo "do something";
}else{
echo "do something else";
}
?>'
});
});
</script>
However, while this may include the custom field in the lightbox as needed, it apparently only displays custom field data for the current page. I am needing custom field data to print for the current lightbox item / WordPress' image attachment.
I therefore tried including the custom field call in post-template.php. [[LINK href="http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/55571/adding-custom-field-to-lightbox-in-header-only-pulls-current-page-data-not-ligh"]]I've been told this is not recommended[[/LINK]].

return apply_filters( 'wp_get_attachment_link', "<a title='$post_title'
href='$url'>$link_text</a><?php
if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){
echo "do something";
}else{
echo "do something else";
}
?>", $id, $size, $permalink, $icon, $text );
}
[[LINK href="http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/55571/adding-custom-field-to-lightbox-in-header-only-pulls-current-page-data-not-ligh"]]I was given a brief explanation at StackExchange[[/LINK]], however, I just need someone to spell it out for me. Tell me what I need to do to get my custom field to show up in my lightbox. I'm desperate. Thanks.

PrettyPhoto is not PHP based. It is based on Jquery. Take a look at the documentation here and send your recommendation: http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/documentation/
Romel Apuya comments:
of course their are other prettyphoto that is PHP based.
can you share your original functions.php code?
AndrewJohn comments:
My theme's functions.php is at http://pastebin.com/bWsGykFi
Romel Apuya comments:
just use single qoute in the echo of do something
return apply_filters( 'wp_get_attachment_link', "<a title='$post_title' href='$url'>$link_text</a>
if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){
echo 'do something';
}else{
echo 'do something else';
}
?>", $id, $size, $permalink, $icon, $text );
}

I copied your code exactly and included it at the end of functions.php and I received this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/andrewsa/public_html/ra/newmasters/wp-content/themes/v1/functions.php on line 874
Romel Apuya comments:
remove the extra } of your function.php line 890 on the pastebin code.

Plus now I'm getting this error in post.php in wp-admin:

you have to use your this code return apply_filters( 'wp_get_attachment_link', "<a title='$post_title'
href='$url'>$link_text</a><?php
if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){
echo "do something";
}else{
echo "do something else";
}
?>", $id, $size, $permalink, $icon, $text );
}
in functions.php and not in post-template.php
