Dear Toolset Support,

I would like to display a custom field on the single post, category and author template
but I couldn't do it.

The custom field is called "testo".

I tried to add the field, but it doesn't appear.

To access WordPress:

Add this to your host file:

34.240.153.106 loccidentale.it hidden link (without hidden link)

Could you do a check?

Thank you

Hello,

Thanks for the details, I can login into your website and see the problem.

Your website is using a custom function to render the post content in single post, so Views content template does not work as expected.

You can follow our document to locate the function name, and fill the function name in Views setting page.

For example, you can try these:
1) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> Front-end Content
in section "Theme support for Content Templates", enable option "Enable theme support debugging"

2) Test the single post in front-end, for example this post:
hidden link
You should be able to see below message:
Le funzioni valide registrate sono td_module_single_base::get_content

The custom function name is: td_module_single_base::get_content

3) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> Front-end Content
in section "Theme support for Content Templates", add above function name: td_module_single_base::get_content, and test it again, it works fine.
