Recently I began to use the Custom Fields. I would like to display a listing of posts which contains the meta_key "oldtimer" and also get the corresponding meta_value.

Here is the expected result:

<table> <tr> <td>Title of post 1</td> <td>OLD-39283</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Title of post 2</td> <td>OLD-22445</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Title of post 3</td> <td>OLD-32145</td> </tr></table> 

Here is the PHP code I have for now. I don't know how to get the meta_value for each post:

$args = array( 'posts_per_page' => -1, 'order' => 'ASC', 'orderby' => 'title', 'meta_key' => 'oldtimer' ); $the_query = new WP_Query($args); // The Loop if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) { echo '<table>'; while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) { $the_query->the_post(); echo '<tr><td><a href="'. get_the_permalink() .'">' . get_the_title() . '</td>'; echo '<td>meta_key</td></tr>'; } echo '</table>'; /* Restore original Post Data */ wp_reset_postdata(); } else { // no posts found } 

Here is the information on SQL side: enter image description here

Is anyone has an idea? Any suggestion about this will be much appreciated.

You can just fetch the post meta manually within the loop as follows:

get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'oldtimer', true ); 

That should get you the correct value. Hope it helps 👍
