Answer 1

So not sure how you're saving your meta_key in the first place? It looks like what you have is a serialized array with just a single, numerically indexed entry. So what you probably want to do is change wherever that's saved to just store the URL?

That said, you could access that meta value like this:

$banner_src = maybe_unserialize( get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_event_banner', true ) );
$banner_src = is_array( $banner_src ) ? $banner_src[0] : $banner_src;

And then display the banner like:

<img src="<?php echo $banner_src; ?>" />
