was a error about it not being able to show more then 100

Thanks so much for the help @rajanit2000, if anyone need help ask him.

Here is the result that made it work for me.

my function.php code:

add_action( 'admin_init', 'my_admin_portfolio' );
function my_admin_portfolio() {
    add_meta_box( 'portfolio_meta_box', 'Programs used', 'display_portfolio_meta_box','Portfolio', 'normal', 'high' );
}
function display_portfolio_meta_box( $portfolio ) {
    ?>
    <h4>2D Programs</h4>
    <table width="100%">
    <tr>
        <td style="width: 25%">Photoshop</td>
        <td><input type="checkbox" style="width:425px;" name="meta[Photoshop]" value="True" <?php if( get_post_meta( $portfolio->ID, 'Photoshop', true ) == "True" ) {?>checked<?php }?> />
        </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td style="width: 25%">Illustrator</td>
        <td><input type="checkbox" style="width:425px;" name="meta[Illustrator]" value="True" <?php if( get_post_meta( $portfolio->ID, 'Illustrator', true ) == "True" ) {?>checked<?php }?> />
        </td>
    </tr>

</table>
<?php
}
add_action( 'save_post', 'add_portfolio_fields', 10, 2 );
function add_portfolio_fields( $portfolio_id, $portfolio ) {
    if ( $portfolio->post_type == 'portfolio' ) {
         if (  $_POST['meta']['Photoshop'] == "True" ) {
            update_post_meta( $portfolio_id, 'Photoshop', 'True' );
        }else{
			update_post_meta( $portfolio_id, 'Photoshop', 'False' );
		}
    }
}

this is my single.php code (where i print it):

<?php
			if (get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'Photoshop', 'Illustrator', 'Maya', 'zbrush', 'sDesigner', 'After', 'Premiere', 'Nuke') == null) {
				echo "<div class='nosoftware'><h3>No software has been picked!</h3></div>";
			}
			else
			{

			if (get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'Photoshop', true ) == "True")
			{
				echo "<div class='software'><img src='"; ?><?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?><?php echo "/img/logos/Photoshop.png' /><h3>Photoshop</h3></div>";

			}

			if (get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'Illustrator', true) == "True")
			{
				echo "<div class='software'><img src='"; ?><?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?><?php echo "/img/logos/ill.png' /><h3>Illustrator</h3></div>";

			}
}

@anevins just so you know. but even though you redacted the mail i still got it in my mail ?? so is that something the forum should look into maybe?

here is the link til my function file

Function file

and the link til my single file

single file

well that kinda worked i can see on my front end that it change to false but the dropdown still puts it on true even when its false.

and really want it to be a checkbox if you have a way to things this problem for the checkbox ??

thanks it’s almost there the only problem i have left now is i can’t uncheck and update it. then it will always remember that it was checked ad stay checked.

what am i doing wrong there?

here is the function as said i made it work now i just need to be able to have more then one and get the checked vale on my single.php

Paste bin

this is my single.php code

<?php 

		if (have_posts() ):

			while(have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

		<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
		<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>
		<?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'check_1', true );?>

i fixed it my bad. now i just need a way to make the if statment on my single.php

like
if(check_1 == checked)
do something
else
dont do it.

do you have anything?

the issue is that when i check the box and then press update. it’s unchecked again

first think i still cant get it to save on my admin page. if i update the product after checking it it goes back to not checked.

2nd i dont get the <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘check_1’, true );?>

could you maybe make it in to an if

like

if(check_1 == checked)
do something
else
dont do it.

something like that?

LoL my bad. but now i have the problem i had a long time ago.

when i update my item it wont stay checked so guess there’s something in the save option that needs to be change?

and can you send me some code that so i can print it out on the front page?

if its check i want to be able to do something els do nothing like that?

i appreciate all your help.

think there is something wrong with this line

<input type="checkbox" style="width:425px;" name="meta[check_1]" value="True" <?php if( get_post_meta( $car->ID, 'check_1', true ) == "True" ) {?>checked<?php}?> />

it give me an error that says

unexpected end of file

and tried it out it something abou the {?>checked<?php}?> that does not work

i tryed your code and it gives me text fields and text fields are not my problem, its that i need it to be check boxes and how to see if its true or false on my single.php page.

here is what i get with your code.

Picture of it

i might have forgotten to say that my code is my function.php file. but gonna try that code

i solved it my self
