I've tried all the variations available on this forum.</p> <p>Key: client<br /> Value: Joe Blogg</p> <p>The code I am using is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $client = get_post_meta($post-&gt;ID, &#39;client&#39;, true); ?&gt; &lt;?php echo($client) ?&gt;</code></pre> <p>However, nothing is displayed in the post.</p> <p>When I use to test:<br /> <code>&lt;?php the_meta(); ?&gt;</code></p> <p>It works fine, displaying "client: Joe Bloggs", but this isn't what I need (I only need the value). The code is absolutely positively within the loop.</p> <p>Can anybody help? I've exhausted my limited knowledge of PHP!<br /> Thanks, Max </p>
