The plugin i question is GigPress to display our dates. The idea is to use either their shortcode or widget code to display dates for one artst in the roster. So I have in my Artists’ pod a text field called gigs which related to the GigPress gig ID number. In this case…1. So here’s how it would work hard coded:

So that’s OK but what about dynamically changing that ID to display the variable I have assigned in my pod’s field? So I tried this:

That just protrudes blanks. No dates at all.So how would I embed this. Or can I?

That didn’t work. It should have returned a ’1′ (without the apostrophes, of course) and display dates. Instead it said ‘No Shows"…and I’m wondering why that would happen. It is possible, it’s displaying <p>1</p> instead of just 1? I notice a number of times the pod results incorporate <p> tags which quite frankly, I’d like to eliminate.

If it’s got html in it, just do a <?php $artists_gigs = strip_tags( $artists_gigs ); ?> to take the tags out, and <?php $artists_gigs = (int) $artists_gigs; ?> to force the integer.

"
I’m going to try the strip_tags code next. Thanks, Scott. If you have an explanation of what the means, let me know. Really curious.

This seems to work:

Thanks again, Scott…for all your help and assistance.
