Not sure that I understand, if your trying to retrieve the post ID try one of these. It works in most cases…
```
// Works inside of the Loop
function function_name() {
global $post;
$thePostID = $post->ID;
}
```
or:
```
// Works in single post outside of the Loop
function function_name() {
global $wp_query;
$thePostID = $wp_query->post->ID;
}
```
You would then use:
<?php add_post_meta($thePostID, $meta_key, $meta_value, $unique); ?>
