There are plenty of them out there. Or find a media player plugin for WordPress and find a way for it to pick up your custom field value for the player. I was hoping you were using a free theme. Since you are using a paid theme, I'm unable to create a test environment to help you with placement, but it does look like you've partially figured that out. Your code to pull the mp3 link should go in your loop.php file. It might have to go in various spots as no doubt the developer put a giant if statement to check to see if it is the index page or the single post or single page. You can ask your theme developer where in their loop.php you should put code to display your custom field values, and he/she should hopefully understand that. cinisli on "mp4 upload" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mp4-upload#post-62375 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 05:51:14 +0000 cinisli 62375@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ i put the code in single php. <pre><code><?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'header_choice_select', true));{ get_header(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'header_choice_select', true)); } ?> <div id="container_bg"> <?php if (get_option_tree('post_layout_sidebar', '')) { echo '<div id="content_full" >'; } else {echo '<div id="content" class="left">';} ?> <?php get_post_meta($post->ID, 'ses', true); ?> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'ses', true); ?> <?php $header = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'header_choice_select', true); if ($header=='post-slider' || $header =='orbit-slider' || $header=='offer-slider' || $header=='custom-element' || $header=='custom-element-bg'){ ?> <h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1> <?php } ?> <?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'single' ); ?> </div> <?php if (get_option_tree('post_layout_sidebar', '')) {} else {echo '<div id="sidebar_right">', get_sidebar() .

Most likely in single.php and/or index.php but this depends on your theme. If you need a better understanding of where this should go, you might want to contact the theme author. Also, let me know which theme you are using, and maybe I can help as well. cinisli on "mp4 upload" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mp4-upload#post-62204 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 20:59:15 +0000 cinisli 62204@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hello David, me again, i have a problem i hope you help me to solve. i did everything you said at GF. select New for custom field, and give it a name music and then in allowed file types add mp3. then I created the code; <?php get_post_meta($post->ID, 'music', true); ?> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'music', true); ?> Pase At the bottom functions.php .Also i tried loop.php.

Then make sure you select New for custom field, and give it a name (Maybe movie) and then in allowed file types, make sure you add mov. Lastly, you'll want to get the custom field to display on your theme. This is different for every theme. <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields</a> <a href="http://perishablepress.com/wordpress-custom-fields-tutorial/" rel="nofollow">http://perishablepress.com/wordpress-custom-fields-tutorial/</a> Hope this helps. cinisli on "mp4 upload" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mp4-upload#post-62108 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:24:26 +0000 cinisli 62108@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ thank you for your reply. i am not good at coding, how can i create a custom field and set it as an upload field? Thank you for your understanding David Peralty on "mp4 upload" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mp4-upload#post-62099 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 09:56:34 +0000 David Peralty 62099@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Your file upload, is it tied to a WordPress custom field? If not, create a custom field and then set it as an upload field. This will make it so you can add or use the file for front-end display in an easy way. Gravity Forms uploads everything to one folder. cinisli on "mp4 upload" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mp4-upload#post-61983 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 21:44:17 +0000 cinisli 61983@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ hello, i want my users to upload mp4 and post them. by adding file upload form, i can upload the file but the content is not visible. my theme has shortcode to watch mp4 files.
