I know the post id and have the post object retrieved via get_post(..) function in wordpress. But this particular post won't be rendered within a wordpress loop. So how do I access a custom field if I know the field-slug and the post id?

I'm not being able to find a function that does this. Sounds like an expected behavior. Am I missing something?

Dear Dayson,

You can use this function to set the desired post as if you were in the loop:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/setup_postdata

Or you can access the field directly:
echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'wpcf-field', true);
