Looper Consumer Data location in database for libsyn integration

[edevita]

I’m trying to integrate the Posts element with the libsyn API post content.

The initial Posts(magazine) element comes with some basic data ids, but I can’t seem to figure out where those ids live in the database. For instance the Featured image data id is {{dc:post:featured_image_id}} and the date is is {{dc:post:publish_date}}. I assumed these lived in the wppostmeta on the database, which has all of the libsyn data I could access, but I can’t find them there.

Is there a way to access postmeta data in the looper consumer? Where are the ids such as “featured_image_id” or “publish_date” coming from?

I believe you are looking for Post Meta dynamic content. It will be something like {{dc:post:meta key="libsyn_etc"}} where they key parameter is the meta name in the database. Let me know if this help and have a great day!

Thanks @charlie

I hadn’t realized you could access all of the meta keys in the database there, that is incredibly useful and helpful. That said, it brings up a different issue. When I try to use an image element with a src that is an external link, it doesn’t show up. I’m sure there must be a simple solution to linking img sources to external links, but it doesn’t seem to work. If I make it the background of a different div it works, but not on the image element itself. Thoughts?

Hey @edevita,

Please check the output of the Dynamic Content in a Text element and post a screenshot of it here. I suspect that the output is not a URL that is why it doesn’t work. If the output is not a URL, please set the meta to output a URL.

If the output is a URL, please provide the following details in a Secure Note

• URL of the page you’re working on
• Screenshot of the element you’re working on
• WordPress Login URL
• Admin username and password

You can find the Secure Note button at the bottom of your posts.

Thanks.
