    I might not understand how you mean this.

    If you set a custom field via the plugin, when you edit the post, you need to go to “Screen Options” and check “Custom Fields” so they will be displayed on the edit page.

    Yes id does show the custom field in the backend below the post textarea once I check the “Custom Fields”. But I wanted to know how this field can be displayed on the website frontend.
    For example. I created a meta_first_name in my contact form, when i submit my form..it creates the below custom field for my post

    Name: meta_first_name
    Value: Nitin

    now i want this information to be displayed on my website page.
    Do I have to add any code to the FormToPost_Plugin.php file and if yes what will be that code. Right now I am trying at my end also, but a little help from you will be appreciated a lot.

    Thanks for replying…

    The question is really independent of the plugin. If you have any custom fields set (whether set by the plugin or by any other means) how do you display that in a post? I don’t know the answer.
