I need to add/publish a unique reference number to every CPT and would like to use the post ID.
Can you please talk me through how to do this using a custom field?
Many thanks in advance

Hi there

Sorry, could you clarify what you are aiming for?

You have a unique reference number (from somewhere) and you'd like to store that value in a custom field?

Or you'd like to use the unique post ID as the reference number and store it in a custom field? (Although, why would you do that, if you already have a unique post ID?)

Or something else?

And what is the context for where/when this happens?

This is for a real estate site that will be importing properties from various sources and there is a high propbablity of duplicate reference numbers. So to avoid potential duplicates, I would like to use the post ID as the reference number that is published for each property.

Hi William,

As I understand will there already be a reference number attach to the property?

Also what are you using to import the posts. Secondly is that reference number already stored in a custom field.

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Please, I would just like to know how I can display the post ID in my CPT so it can be used as a reference number.
