I’m using this code to show my field:
<?php echo '@ ' . get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'Author:', true); ?>
When I add a field in my posts it shows it with no problem but for posts that I don’t add any fields it shows “@”.
What I can do to not show anything if field is empty in a post?
Examples: field with data – field with no data [Warning: Both links are NSFW +18]

Method 1
You can just make a simple check, to see if you have this meta
$author = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'Author:', true);
if ( $author ) :
echo '@ ' . $author;
endif;
