• Hello!

    I have managed to add a meta box inside my posts that features a checkbox. If the checbox IS checked, I want it to display the text “premium” in the post. I have tried adding this code, but nothing is showing! <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘premium’, true); ?>

    I know im so close, so please help! 🙂

    Here is my functions.php code

    $prefix = 'dbt_';
    
    $meta_box = array(
        'id' => 'premium',
        'title' => 'Premium innhold',
        'page' => 'post',
        'context' => 'side',
        'priority' => 'high',
        'fields' => array(
            array(
                'name' => 'premium',
                'id' => $prefix . 'checkbox',
                'type' => 'checkbox'
            )
        )
    );
    
    add_action('admin_menu', 'divi_add_box');
    
    // Add meta box
    function divi_add_box() {
        global $meta_box;
    
        add_meta_box($meta_box['id'], $meta_box['title'], 'divi_show_box', $meta_box['page'], $meta_box['context'], $meta_box['priority']);
    }
    
    // Callback function to show fields in meta box
    function divi_show_box() {
        global $meta_box, $post;
    
        // Use nonce for verification
        echo '<input type="hidden" name="divi_meta_box_nonce" value="', wp_create_nonce(basename(__FILE__)), '" />';
