  hero_style is a custom field with web address added by user, when that web address is available it displays the button.
  I need it to not show the button if there is no inputed web address?

  function custom_field() {
  global $post;
  $url = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘hero_style’, true );
  echo ‘My Button‘;
  }
  add_filter( ‘field’, ‘custom_field’ );

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

  Hi, you are in the wrong forum.
  This forum is for blogs/sites hosted by WordPress.com

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and different http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  And you should ask in the WordPress.org forum.

  With a WordPress.org site, you’ll have the ability to access theme files so that you can edit the PHP.

  Here are the differences between a .org and a .com WordPress site:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  If you decided to go the .org route, here’s your function modified with a conditional check:

  
  

  	function custom_field() {
  	global $post;
  	$url = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'hero_style', true );
  	if ( ! empty( $url ) ) {
  	echo 'My Button';
  	}
  	}
  	add_filter( 'field', 'custom_field' );
