    I created a Custom Field for my Post and published it, but when I view that Post, the custom field is not showing up.
    I was told that Custom Fields do not output automatically and I need to use some custom code to make that happen. What does this mean? What custom code and where how do I put it?

    Thank you.

    Hi, Vesna - it's been a while since you posted this - did you get a solution, or are you still looking for an answer?

    If you're still looking for assistance, can you please include a link to your site, and let us know what you've added to the custom field.

    Have you read this tutorial? http://designsbynickthegeek.com/tutorials/how-i-make-custom-fields-easier

    Vesna,

    Your WordPress site uses a "template" to display a post. It's a matter of dropping a small piece of code into that template that tells it where the custom field should be inserted. It's a fairly quick process but can be a little confusing if you're not a web developer. Let me know if you need help.
