Using html in post title with custom fields

[TushitaKBC]

I want to be able to use html in my title. I found a work-around that makes use custom fields with a modification in single.php on a standard theme. X is anything but standard. Here is what I was trying to implement. Can you lend a hand?

The instructions take the <h1><php the_title(); ?></h1> and replace it with `<?php

$html_title = get_post_meta($post->ID, “HTML_title”, true);

if ($html_title) { ?>

  <h1><?php echo $html_title; ?></h1>

<?php } else { ?>

  <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>

<?php } ?>`

Allowing a custom field called HTML_title.

I looked in the single.php file for X and found just this code. <?php x_get_view( x_get_stack(), 'wp', 'single' ); ?>

Can you tell me how to make the change I trying to accomplish?

Thanks team

Hi there,

To do such a change you will need to install the Child Theme first. Then you will need to overwrite the file below from the parent theme. Copy the file below:

wp-content/themes/x/framework/views/{stack name}/_content-post-header.php

to:

wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/{stack name}/_content-post-header.php

You will need to replace {stack name} with the name of the stack you are using all in lowercase. For example: integrity

If you do not see the folders mentioned in the child theme you should create those folders there.

Now you can change the code and replace the_title() with whatever code you have on your mind.

Please kindly consider that this is a customization request and we will not be able to implement this feature for you as it is outside the scope of our support.

Thank you for your understanding.
