Hi Hunk
Could you help me.
Im using magic field on my custom wordpress template

        <?php while($wp_query ->have_posts()) : $wp_query ->the_post();?>

<li class="boxgrid slidedown">
    <div class="cover">
        <div class="datewrap">
            <div class="closedt">
                <p>CLOSES<br/><?php echo get('end');?></p></div>
            <div class="country"><p>OPEN FOR: <br/>
                    <?php $value = get('NZ');
                    if($value){echo "NZ";
                    };?> 
                    <?php $value2 = get('AUS');
                    if($value2){echo "AUS";
                    };?></p>
            </div> 
        </div><!--/datewrap  -->
        <div class="thumb">
            <img src="<?php echo get('image');?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>"/></div>
        <div class="mlisthead">
            <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1></div>
    </div>
    
    <div class="excerpt">
        <p><?php $excerpt = get_the_excerpt();
                echo string_limit_words($excerpt,15);?><br/></p>
        <div class="enterbtnA" >
        <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" >MORE</a></div>
