How to include custom field data in Prettyphoto?

I'm currently using Advanced Custom Fields to create a custom field has_the_portrait_sold which will be indicated on my Prettyphoto / Lightbox item.

However, when I use PHP from the example (it is true or false):

if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){

echo "The item has been sold.";

}else{

echo "The item has not been sold";

}

In header.php:

<script type text/javascript>

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

$("a[href$='.jpg'], a[href$='.jpeg'], 

a[href$='.gif'], a[href$='.png']").prettyPhoto({

theme: 'dark_square',

show_title: true, /* true/false */

social_tools: '<?php the_title(); ?> <?php

if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){

echo "do something";

}else{

echo "do something else";

}

?>'

});

});

</script>

However, while this may include the custom field in the lightbox as needed, it apparently only displays custom field data for the current page. I am needing custom field data to print for the current lightbox item / WordPress' image attachment.

I therefore tried including the custom field call in post-template.php. I've been told this is not recommended.

I therefore tried including the custom field call in post-template.php. Please note my PHP skills are limited, I am VERY determined to make this work.

return apply_filters( 'wp_get_attachment_link', "<a title='$post_title'

href='$url'>$link_text</a><?php

if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){

echo "do something";

}else{

echo "do something else";

}

?>", $id, $size, $permalink, $icon, $text );

}

I was given a brief explanation at StackExchange, however, I just need someone to spell it out for me. Tell me what I need to do to get my custom field to show up in my lightbox. I'm desperate. Thanks.

  AndrewJohn says:
  PrettyPhoto is not PHP based. It is based on Jquery. Take a look at the documentation here and send your recommendation: http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/documentation/

if(get_field('has_the_portrait_sold')){



echo "do something";
