How can I insert information from custom fields as shortcodes in wordpress?

In creating a restaurant blog and I would like to be able to create custom fields for "map" "telephone" "address" etc, and I would like to be able to insert it into the post using shortcodes, I´m not sure how to accomplish this

Answer:
I think you should follow a different approach. If you are saving the information as post custom fields or post meta, then on your template page, inside the loop, you can just get the post meta and display it. I don't think there is a shortcode that will work with post specific custom meta. Even if you want such a shortcode, you'll have to write it yourself. Using post meta calls is an easier approach.

This what you need? // Use shortcode in a PHP file (outside the post editor). echo do_shortcode('[gallery]'); http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode
