    Hi

    I have this but it is not working as I assume because it is not in the loop? Help?

    <?php
/*
Template Name: Whatever
*/
?>

<html>
<head>
<title>Demo Template</title>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>">

</head>

<body>

<div id="wrapper">

	<div id="photo">

		<img src="HannahDeCanchoGREEN.jpg" alt="Klematis" width="300" height="446" />

	</div>

	<div id="textblock">

		<p> <?php the_meta(); ?> </p>

	</div>
</div>

    i use: Get Custom Field Values

    here is what some of my code looks like:

    <?php query_posts('category_name=board-of-directors&order=asc');
     	while (have_posts()) : the_post();
    	$do_not_duplicate = $post->ID; ?>
    	<div>
		<h3><?php the_title(); ?> <span><?php echo c2c_get_custom('boardTitle'); ?></span></h3>
		<p><?php the_content() ?></p>
	</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>

    this loops thru my board of directors, displays their Name (title) their Title on the board (boardTitle as a custom field), and their bio (content)

    hope this helps

    Yes it did!

    I did this

    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
               		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
               			<!-- do stuff ... -->

				<p> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'TextBox', true) ?> </p>
				<p> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'TextBox2', true) ?> </p>
				<p> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'TextBox3', true) ?> </p>
				<p> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'TextBox4', true) ?> </p>
				<p> <?php the_time('l, F jS, Y') ?> </p>

               		<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php endif; ?>
