     52= How do I display my custom fields in the frontend? =

    36 Let’s consider we have a meta box with the following arguments:
     54Let's consider we have a meta box with the following arguments:
    3755- Meta name: books
    3856- Post Type: post
    39 And we also have two fields deffined:
    40 - A text field with the Field Title: Book name
    41 - And another text field with the Field Title: Author name
     57And we also have two fields defined:
     58- A text custom field with the Field Title: Book name
     59- And another text custom field with the Field Title: Author name
    4260
    43 You will notice that slugs will automatically be created for the two text fields. For “Book name” the slug will be “book-name” and for “Author name” the slug will be “author-name”
     61You will notice that slugs will automatically be created for the two text fields. For 'Book name' the slug will be 'book-name' and for 'Author name' the slug will be 'author-name'

    45 Let’s see what the code for displaying the meta box values in single.php of your theme would be:
     63Let's see what the code for displaying the meta box values in single.php of your theme would be:
    4664
    4765`<?php $books = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'books', true );
    4866foreach( $books as $book){
    49     echo $book['book-name'];
    50     echo $book['author-name'];
     67    echo $book['book-name'] . '<br/>';
     68    echo $book['author-name'] . '<br/>';
    5169}?>`
    5270
    53 So as you can see the Meta Name “books” is used as the $key parameter of the funtion get_post_meta() and the slugs of the text fields are used as keys for the resulting array. Basically CFC stores the entries as post meta in a multidimensioanl array. In our case the array would be:
