    I've been working with reformatting the html in external.php to work with an RSS parsing script to display ads on different sites. My question...is there an easy way to call an Extra Field in external.php? As an example, it would be cool to display a Stock Number for an automotive rss feed.

    Any thoughts would be great

    Yes but it is quite tricky and specific. You will need to use $Db = Library::loadDb(); at the top of your external.php file and then use code very similar to what you see in the getextrafields plugin. I am not going to put all the code here but if you PM me I will give you an example that you can diff with the existing external.php file.
