Hi,
\nI purchased the Events Calendar Pro and am trying to use a custom field on this event info page: http:\/\/new.jasnany.org\/event\/brooklyn-book-festival\/<\/p>\n

I edited \/wp-content\/plugins\/the-events-calendar\/src\/views\/single-event.php with this code:<\/p>\n

<div class=”event-status”>
\n<?php
\n echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘registration-status’, true)
\n?>
\n<\/div><\/p>\n

and added a custom field to the event admin page called “registration-status”. I can see the div code in the live page source, but it’s empty, and the text in the custom field is not carrying over. <\/p>\n

What am I doing wrong?<\/p>\n

Thank you for your help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1154816","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nCustom field not working - help please! -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/custom-field-not-working-help-please\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Custom field not working - help please! -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi, I purchased the Events Calendar Pro and am trying to use a custom field on this event info page: http:\/\/new.jasnany.org\/event\/brooklyn-book-festival\/ I edited \/wp-content\/plugins\/the-events-calendar\/src\/views\/single-event.php with this code: <div class=”event-status”> <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘registration-status’, true) ?> <\/div> and added a custom field to the event admin page called “registration-status”.
