Ok! So I figured out why the documentary and corporate page templates weren't pulling the post meta: my meta fields id's in functions.php had a variable @prefix applied before the name. I added that prefix and, voilá! My question still, though, is why the homepage template was working at all?

Probably a stupid question, but those meta fields (film_embed, film_textarea) are actually populated for posts that have the documentary term applied - right? If you do $custom_fields = get_post_custom($post_id); print_r($custom_fields); you actually get something back?

@TomásCot - I've updated the code with more of the header and replaced $post_id->ID with get_the_ID(). @vancoder - When I var_dump($post_id); it returns the correct id's of the posts.

more code

| Sep 11, 2014 at 23:16 | comment | added | vancoder | Is $post_id actually populated in those other 2 templates? Output it - my guess is it's empty. | |

you can get the post id with get_the_ID() function. Can you add the header where the name of the templates is?

| Sep 11, 2014 at 22:53 | comment | added | dmoz | Okay, I added the rest of the loop. It's identical for both pages, and, again, the homepage one shows every video in the correct category, while the documentary one (and corporate.php) does not. | |

updated with more code

| Sep 11, 2014 at 22:20 | comment | added | vancoder | I think you need to show the code that is supposed to output the meta that you speak of. | |

Yea, on the corporate and documentary pages nothing shows up. The names of the template files are: homepage.php, corporate.php, and documentary.php. What's also interesting is that the archive page for the custom post type (thegallerymusic.com/test/films) populates only six of the posts(two on page 2), out of twelve total. It's generating the containing divs for each post, but the custom_post_meta (the actual video embed, title, description) is not being loaded within those...
