display specific custom fields

Question

I have few custom field assigned for each post, like: "Club" with value "club1" "Date" with value "date1" and so on...

Now, I want to display from all the custom fields just those 2 " club" and "date".

This is my markup :

                    <div class="meta-container"><?php the_meta(); ?></div>

The problem with this, is that is retrieving all the custom fields and I don't want this. I was thinking to add css psedoselector like nth:child(n) but I'm sure that I can do this with this function. Thank you!

Answer 1

You should use get_post_meta() twice (Ref to your other question):

<?php
  echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'club', true ); 
  echo '<br />';
  echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'date', true ); 
?>

Answer 2

Oddly enough, one of your tags is exactly what you need! You're looking for WordPress' get_post_meta function: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta

Within the loop, it would look something like this:

<?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'Club', true); ?>
