michael-cannon / gc-testimonials Goto Github PK

Hi Michael,
Per your request to add the help request here:

I uploaded and activated your github update for the GC Testimonials and I am still getting the blank settings screen below the Settings and Shortcodes tab: Dashboard > Testimonials > Settings. I checked the file code to make sure it was from your github file and it is.

Background: I had restored the website onto another server. The original is working fine and can see the settings page. Haven't changed anything. Was just clicking through the backend and found this blank screen.

What's interesting is that the page will display for a split second and then only show the Testimonial Settings title and then the Settings and Shortcodes Tabs.
Are you open to trying to diagnose this issue?

Function gct_get_post_custom tries to get custom post metas for the post, using the global $post variable, but the global $post can contain data coming from any post type , depending on the contest, and not only from GC_testimonial posts.
This function it's called everywhere passing in the post ID as parameter but it doesn't accept parameters. So, when the global $post contain something else than a GC_testimonial post, the function can't retrieve custom meta as client_name, company_name etc etc.

To fix this issue, I've just added a param in the function definition and then passed it to get_post_custom.
