Question

I have to parse wordpress post_meta table , particularly “_wp_attachment_metadata” field

For example:

Its value is for a post id = 99

> a:6:{s:5:"width";s:3:"238";s:6:"height";s:3:"179";s:14:"hwstring_small";s:23:"height='96'
> width='128'";s:4:"file";s:21:"2010/11/matt-lane.jpg";s:5:"sizes";a:1:{s:9:"thumbnail";a:3:{s:4:"file";s:21:"matt-lane-150x150.jpg";s:5:"width";s:3:"150";s:6:"height";s:3:"150";}}s:10:"image_meta";a:10:{s:8:"aperture";s:1:"0";s:6:"credit";s:0:"";s:6:"camera";s:0:"";s:7:"caption";s:0:"";s:17:"created_timestamp";s:1:"0";s:9:"copyright";s:0:"";s:12:"focal_length";s:1:"0";s:3:"iso";s:1:"0";s:13:"shutter_speed";s:1:"0";s:5:"title";s:0:"";}}

I didnt understand how it is compiled or how it can be parsed outside wordpress. The thing i si have to load the latest articles with all the data sets of post on magento platform from wordpress.

please help me to parse this data to get the images src’s.

Thanks in advance

Try:

$a = unserialize("");
print_r($a);
