AND the following test function shows the correct values and passes properly through the same conditional. </p> <pre><code>function bacon(){ global $layout_metabox; $layout_metabox-&gt;the_meta(); $layout_metabox-&gt;the_value(&#39;layout&#39;); echo &quot;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&quot;; $layout_meta = $layout_metabox-&gt;get_the_value(&#39;layout&#39;); if (&quot;full&quot; == $layout_meta) { echo &quot;yay&quot;; } else { echo &quot;wtf&quot;; } } add_action(&#39;thematic_belowheader&#39;,&#39;bacon&#39;);</code></pre> <p>however, it DOES work if i remove the conditionals and just return false- so i suspect it has to do with not <em>yet</em> having a value or the meta somehow getting messed up w/ the index loop? i've tried copying the blog template into my directory and adding wp_reset_query() b/c i have managed to track down that my first function above is pulling the meta data from the first post in the blog template, but that didn't get me anywhere. </p> <p>any ideas? </p>
