   I made a custom field for a shorter version of my posts' title called short_title. Problem is getting it to appear in my post just comes across with fatal errors. I've tried a number of approaches but nothing seems to click. Here's my latest:

   <?php echo get('short_title'); ?>

   That just brings up a fatal error. So how can I display it?

   try to search the web for related information in the codex:
   for instance with search term: 'codex custom fields'

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta

   <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID,'short_title',true); ?>
