   I am trying to use the output from a custom field instead of the excerpt.

   I have managed to get the custom field showing below the title of the related posts. But the problem is the custom field takes the post ID of the current post instead of the related post.

   This is what I did, edited baw-manual-related-posts/inc/frontend-noajax.inc.php

   Replaced:
   case 'excerpt': $p = get_post( $id ); $_content = '<br />' . apply_filters( 'the_excerpt', $p->post_excerpt ) .'<p>&nbsp;</p>'; break;

   To:
   case 'excerpt': $p = get_post( $id ); $_content = '<br />' . get_custom_field_value('cp_base_pay', $p->post_excerpt ) .'<p>&nbsp;</p>'; break;

   I tried:
   case 'excerpt': $p = get_post( $id ); $_content = '<br />' . get_custom_field_value($postid, 'cp_base_pay', $p->post_excerpt ) .'<p>&nbsp;</p>'; break;

   But it doesn't seem to work.

   Someone please help.

   Thanks

   would something like this work?

   case 'excerpt': $p = get_post( $id ); $_content = '<br />' . apply_filters( 'the_meta_key', 'CUSTOM_FIELD_NAME', $p->post_excerpt ) .'<p>&nbsp;</p>'; break;

   You should be able to use the bawmrp_more_content filter to output what you want without hacking the plugin's code.
