Help with FacePress plugin

[shane8960]

Hi All,

I've got a site which I am using FacePress 2 on. Im trying to edit the plugin to pull a custom field from the post rather than the excerpt, so that the update will be sent as "TITLE - PRICE - URL"

The part I have changed is...

if (preg_match('%EXCERPT%',$ftstatus))
					{
						$postExcerpt = get_post_meta($postID, 'Price', true);
						$ftstatus = str_ireplace("%EXCERPT%", $postExcerpt, $ftstatus);
					}

but it doesnt work. I think the problem is with the $postID as if I hardcode that as an existing post ID it works, but I dont know how to get the current postID. I've tried several variations such as $postID, $post->ID, get_the_id but I just cant get it to work. I've asked the author on his blog but the comment has been approved (nearly 3 weeks ago).

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Cheers, Shane
