New to Artisteer and Wordpress in general... big bind here too.

I have been trying to input custom fields for a real estate agent that would display the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, sq ft, and price, but I can't get it to work at all. Anyone have any idea? Not sure where I should input the data or anything. I have read the wodpress custom field help page: http://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields but it is all foreign to me. Any help would be much much appreciated.

That's all wordpress J.
Art does the design stuff only.
What custom fields? Tabular data retrieved from your database?

I have to stress that I am REALLY new to this stuff.

I am trying to create custom fields to where I can input data, just 4 custom fields that I can figure. Bedrooms, Bathrooms, Sq. Ft., and Price, all that would show up on the listing in a regular format if needed. Every time I try to put the code in the back end, i get a fatal error and the page does not load correctly. I am not sure if any of this stuff makes sense or not. I guess I came to this forum because it seems that every wordpress template is different, and I was hoping for exactly where to place the code in the editor. I know that it is supposed to go into the loop, but where is the best place? Am I cutting code in from something else that I don't know of? Just confused...

Hi J,

As Robert said this is nothing specifically to do with Artisteer..

Below is a link to the WP docs on using custom fields...

As you requirement is of a more general ( to WP ) request, you might be better off posting it in the WP forums if the help you get at the link is above you.

HTH, Dave

You need to have a PHP function which can access the Wordpress database(to get the information), draw table on a Wordpress page and display the information on that page.
