Hi! Thanks a lot for this very particular and helpful code snippet. It couldn’t be clearer, or more helpful.

$key_1_value = get_post_meta('POST-ID', 'Key_1', true); //Use this to retrieve the plain custom field value. Example: 1117,302,1309 $thePostIdArray = explode(",", $key_1_value); //Load the customer field value into an array (each comma will separate an item) print_r($thePostIdArray); //Lets check the value of this array ?>

For:

$thePostIdArray = array(“28″,”74″, “82″, “92″);

How would I make the post id’s be loaded from a custom field in WordPress?

For example I want to make a custom post type, and a field where a user can enter in order post ID’s.

Like this: 1117,302,1309 – and these will then dynamically be placed in the array?

Is this possible?

The post type, and field is easy, I’m just not sure on how to pass the ID’s from the field into the array.

thoughts?

First you would add the image URL as a custom field in that post. Then you can retrieve the value of that custom field and use it to show the image. Are you using a custom field?

Thanks a lot, saved my day when have_posts() for some strange reason started to break.

and to previous comments – for excerpt there is a the_excerpt() function, not post_excerpt.
