    is it possible to check if a custom field exists and then if it does display some arbitrary text.

    My plan is to get wordpress to check if a post contains a custom field "photoBoxID" and if it does display the text "For Sale", I have already got it using the value of "photoBoxID" to link to the shop page, I just need some way of advertising the fact that an image is on sale.

    <?php
$key = 'field_name';
$themeta = get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, TRUE);
if($themeta != '') {
echo 'your text';
}
?>
