  Hi,

  In my website any users are allowed to post. But admin should approve to publish that post in website.

  I am searching some plugin for this.

  Now I want to add one custom field named credit in the new post/edit post and I am able to add this and the values are getting stored in the “wppostmeta” table. And I am able to see the values like this in the db,

  <strong>Meta_id | Post_id | meta_key | meta_value
  238         120        Credit	  5</strong>

  But actually when i try retrieve the values in user profile its not at all getting the values. Even I myself do not know exactly what I have to do.

  But I added the credit field in the user profile like this,

  function add_Credit($profile_fields) {
  // Add new fields
  $profile_fields[‘gplus’] = ‘Credit’;
  return $profile_fields;
  }
  add_filter(‘user_contactmethods’, ‘add_Credit’);

  I tried these things to get the value in user profile,
  <?php the_meta(); ?> added this in functions.php. I am very new to wordpress, So I don’t know some basic things also. Kindly help me.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
