Is it possible to add to Custom Fields instead of Post?

Reported by Jonathan | July 30th, 2008 @ 02:55 AM

Is it possible to have the some of the information retrieved placed into custom fields instead of post?

This will be very useful, because the permalink retrieved can be obtain directly from the custom field instead of post.

    It's the current behavior.

    You mean I can do this now?

    But I can't find the option to add to "Custom Fields".

    I'm curious about this as well.

    Currently my feed has images formatted like this in XML:

    <media:img url="http://url.com/image.jpg" height="53" width="70" />

    I'd love to grab this and map it to a custom field called 'thumbnail'

    Is that possible? I see that WP-o-Matic uses custom fields for things like: wpo_sourcepermalink which grabs my from the XML.

    Thanks in advance for any help and even more thanks for making such a brilliant plugin!

    Sorry, when posting the system removed the "" from the comment at: "I see that WP-o-Matic uses custom fields for things like: wpo_sourcepermalink which grabs my from the XML."

    i've got a problem with CFs I use too many campaigns (bout 60) and the CFs make my post-new.php (or whatever is called, when I try to write a new post) is around 1.6 Mb. It's a ridiculous big filesize and it troubles my browsers (all four of them)

    what can we do about it?

    And the funny thing is that sometimes my new post page is just 60kb :/ I don't understand the reasons behind this

    Yes, it is possible to store information in custom fields instead of directly in the post content. I applied it for geometry dash subzero. Custom fields provide a way to store additional metadata or specific information related to a post. By utilizing custom fields, you can store the permalink or any other desired information and retrieve it when needed.
