WordPress query / get template part

Custom Field Loop: customloop

get_template_part( ‘customloop’)

So, when I run my query for this post, I basically need whatever’s filled out in that custom field to then be thrown into the get_template_part() so that it pulls that particular loop.

Thanks in advance.

  1. Yes, we can do this with the get_post_meta() function, just make sure to use the correct key name.

    $loop = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'customloop', true );
    if($loop):
      get_template_part('customloop');
    else:
      get_template_part('loop');
    endif;
