How do I add this variable to this code?

In the code below, how do I insert a custom variable I created called $website_url? I want to insert it for the get_highest_score and get_highest_score_range functions. Right now, the format of the output is like this: <li><a href="post-url">Post Name</a></li> I want to change the post-url to the custom website url.

// Display Widget

function widget($args, $instance) {

    extract($args);

    $title = apply_filters('widget_title', esc_attr($instance['title']));

    $type = esc_attr($instance['type']);

    $mode = esc_attr($instance['mode']);

    $limit = intval($instance['limit']);

    $min_votes = intval($instance['min_votes']);

    $chars = intval($instance['chars']);

    $cat_ids = explode(',', esc_attr($instance['cat_ids']));

    $time_range = esc_attr($instance['time_range']);

    echo $before_widget.$before_title.$title.$after_title;

    echo '<ul>'."n";

    switch($type) {

        case 'most_rated':

            get_most_rated($mode, $min_votes, $limit, $chars);

            break;

        case 'most_rated_category':

            get_most_rated($cat_ids, $mode, $min_votes, $limit, $chars);

            break;

        case 'most_rated_range':

            get_most_rated_range($time_range, $mode, $limit, $chars);

            break;

            get_highest_rated($mode, $min_votes, $limit, $chars);

            break;

        case 'highest_rated_category':

            get_highest_rated_category($cat_ids, $mode, $min_votes, $limit, $chars);

            break;

            break;

            break;

    }

    echo '</ul>'."n";

    echo $after_widget;

}

Do I have to add this anywhere first?

$custom = get_post_custom($post->ID);
$website_url = $custom["website_url"][0];

-Edit-
Here’s how I changed it. I did something wrong though because the website url is not outputting.

// Display Widget

            get_most_rated($cat_ids, $mode, $min_votes, $limit, $chars);

            break;

        case 'most_rated_range':

            get_most_rated_range($time_range, $mode, $limit, $chars);

            break;

        case 'highest_rated_category':

            get_highest_rated_category($cat_ids, $mode, $min_votes, $limit, $chars);

            break;

    }

    echo '</ul>'."n";

    echo $after_widget;

}

Here are the functions for get_highest_score and get_highest_score_range.

### Function: Display Highest Score Page/Post

if(!function_exists('get_highest_score')) {

    function get_highest_score($mode = '', $min_votes = 0, $limit = 10, $chars = 0, $display = true) {

        global $wpdb;

        $output = '';

        if(!empty($mode) && $mode != 'both') {

            $where = "$wpdb->posts.post_type = '$mode'";

        } else {

            $where = '1=1';

        }

        $temp = stripslashes(get_option('postratings_template_mostrated'));

        $highest_score = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT DISTINCT $wpdb->posts.*, (t1.meta_value+0.00) AS ratings_average, (t2.meta_value+0.00) AS ratings_users, (t3.meta_value+0.00) AS ratings_score FROM $wpdb->posts LEFT JOIN $wpdb->postmeta AS t1 ON t1.post_id = $wpdb->posts.ID LEFT JOIN $wpdb->postmeta As t2 ON t1.post_id = t2.post_id LEFT JOIN $wpdb->postmeta AS t3 ON t3.post_id = $wpdb->posts.ID WHERE t1.meta_key = 'ratings_average' AND t2.meta_key = 'ratings_users' AND t3.meta_key = 'ratings_score' AND $wpdb->posts.post_password = '' AND $wpdb->posts.post_date < '".current_time('mysql')."' AND $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'publish' AND t2.meta_value >= $min_votes AND $where ORDER BY ratings_score DESC, ratings_average DESC LIMIT $limit");

        if($highest_score) {

            foreach ($highest_score as $post) {

                $output .= expand_ratings_template($temp, $post->ID, $post, $chars)."n";

            }

        } else {

            $output = '<li>'.__('N/A', 'wp-postratings').'</li>'."n";

        }

        if($display) {

            echo $output;

        } else {

            return $output;

        }

    }

}

…and get_highest_score_range

### Function: Display Highest Score Page/Post With Time Range

if(!function_exists('get_highest_score_range')) {

    function get_highest_score_range($time = '1 day', $mode = '', $limit = 10, $chars = 0, $display = true) {

        global $wpdb;

        $min_time = strtotime('-'.$time, current_time('timestamp')); 

        $output = '';

        if(!empty($mode) && $mode != 'both') {

            $where = "$wpdb->posts.post_type = '$mode'";

        } else {

            $where = '1=1';

        }

        $temp = stripslashes(get_option('postratings_template_mostrated'));

        $highest_score = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT COUNT($wpdb->ratings.rating_postid) AS ratings_users, SUM($wpdb->ratings.rating_rating) AS ratings_score, ROUND(((SUM($wpdb->ratings.rating_rating)/COUNT($wpdb->ratings.rating_postid))), 2) AS ratings_average, $wpdb->posts.* FROM $wpdb->posts LEFT JOIN $wpdb->ratings ON $wpdb->ratings.rating_postid = $wpdb->posts.ID WHERE rating_timestamp >= $min_time AND $wpdb->posts.post_password = '' AND $wpdb->posts.post_date < '".current_time('mysql')."'  AND $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'publish' AND $where GROUP BY $wpdb->ratings.rating_postid ORDER BY ratings_score DESC, ratings_average DESC LIMIT $limit");

        if($highest_score) {

            foreach ($highest_score as $post) {

                $output .= expand_ratings_template($temp, $post->ID, $post, $chars)."n";

            }

        } else {

            $output = '<li>'.__('N/A', 'wp-postratings').'</li>'."n";

        }

        if($display) {

            echo $output;

        } else {

            return $output;

        }

    }

}

This is the expand_ratings_template function.

    }

    $post_ratings_text = '<span class="post-ratings-text" id="ratings_'.$post_id.'_text"></span>';

    // Get the image's alt text

    if($ratings_custom && $ratings_max == 2) {

  1. You don’t have to use $website_url after all. This is the part of the expand_ratings_template function that you want to edit.

     if (strpos($template, '%POST_URL%') !== false) {
    
            $post_link = get_permalink($post_id);
    
            $value = str_replace("%POST_URL%", $post_link, $value);
    
        }
    

    Shall become:

       if (strpos($template, '%POST_URL%') !== false) {
                $custom = get_post_custom($post_id);
                $post_link = $custom["website_url"][0];    
                $value = str_replace("%POST_URL%", $post_link, $value);    
            } 
    

    Hopefully that works.
    If not, insert a

    print_r($custom); 
    

    after the line

    $custom = get_post_custom($post_id);
    

    and post the content here!
