Let’s start by looking at the Action Reference page in Codex: Actions Run During a Typical Request. When a page is loaded on the front or back end, WordPress goes through the load process- loading its own code, loading plugins, the theme, calling each action in sequence. You can see in the second and third … Read more
It looks to me like the_sub_field echoes content. It is never returned for substr to work on. You need get_sub_field. $givchars = 5; $postgiv = get_sub_field(‘get_involved_text’); $modgiv = substr($postgiv, 0, $givchars); echo ‘ ‘ .$modgiv. ‘ ‘;
You don’t mention exactly if you are referring to the default Custom Fields. If so, the solution bellow doesn’t apply. But, much better than the default, is to create a Custom Meta Box where you present your Custom Field(s). The Codex has an example in Function_Reference/add_meta_box. These can also be useful: add meta box – … Read more
Refer to the template hierarchy to see how WordPress chooses a template based on the request. archive-{post_type}.php will render your list of posts without you having to query for them, and single-{post_type}.php will be used for single posts. Your issue is that you’re using the single post template file as your archive view.
WordPress does not support by default custom_fields archive like for taxonomies (yeah, taxonomies can have categories) but we can create a destination page with page template (linked from the listed custom_field) and added a searching on the custom_field, like this (from the listing page): <?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID,’_my_meta’,TRUE)) : $key_meta = get_post_meta($post->ID,’_my_meta’,TRUE); endif; ?> <a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/92473/<?php … Read more
$qry->is_main_query() will be true on every main query on your site, front end and admin. You need to add another more specific condition to target only the page you’re trying to modify the query on, like is_post_type_archive(‘trucks’).
The line: ‘orderby’ => [‘meta_key’ => ‘tq_event_date’] didn’t work. So, based on my context, where all the dates start with a number, I was able to sort the items in the following way: ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value’ If in the future something changes, I think the best way to solve the problem is doing it in … Read more
If you are uploading via Core admin pages, WordPress will most likely upload the file, and then create an attachment post– that is, a post with the attachment post type. So the save_post_attachment hook might do it for you. 3362 /** 3363 * Fires once a post has been saved. 3364 * 3365 * The … Read more
