Yes they are, the first form is internally converted into the second. IMO you should not use the first form as it is a relic to the days wordpress DB structure was much simpler. Today I am not sure if you can even achieve all the things you can do with the second form by … Read more
Before saving your meta data, you have if ( ! current_user_can( ” ) ) return I’ve never run current_user_can against and empty string of capabilities, so I’m not sure what your results are going to be, but it’s very possible this returns a false, and you return at this point. Also, be sure you sanitize … Read more
It depends. There are plugins that can add this functionality, I have used SearchWP in the past, it works well with WooCommerce. You could also write your own custom function and add it to your theme’s functions.php file. Something like this should work. function my_custom_search( $query ) { if( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() ) { … Read more
get_post_custom() is a very outdated method of getting post meta. To get the post meta properly you should use get_post_meta(): $my_custom_field = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘_gardener_address’, true ); foreach ( $my_custom_field as $key => $value ) { echo “<li>” . $key . ” => ” . $value . “</li>”; }
Well, there’s a lot of code you’ve posted and the reason for the problem is pretty easy to fix (but hard to find). You have this line in your code: add_action(‘save-post’,’ktechs_save_contact_email_data’); But there is no hook called save-post. It should be save_post. So change the line above to add_action(‘save_post’, ‘ktechs_save_contact_email_data’ ); and it should work … Read more
The is_page() conditional relies on the global $wp_query WP_Query object which isn’t set on the edit post page. We have some other options though… If we know the page ID we can test against $_GET: /** * Remove metaboxes * * @return void */ function wpse343020_remove_meta_boxes() { if( isset( $_GET, $_GET[‘post’] ) && 123 == … Read more
A custom field is a visible form element where users can add information. It’s presentation. Meta data are data stored in one of the meta tables for posts, users, terms and so on. The content of a custom field can be stored as meta data, in a separate table, a text file, on a remote … Read more
But I don’t understand: why does the mere act of checking off that a post type is visible to restAPI cause wordpress’s backend editor to go into a completely different mode of operation? WordPress 5.0 introduced the Block Editor. This is an entirely new post editing screen and method of editing posts. It works by … Read more
In my opinion the problem is the way you operate the checkbox. As the checkbox value, you set the value read from the database, which is sometimes an empty string. When you send an unchecked checkbox, there is no $_POST[‘chkClientShow’] key and an empty string is saved to the database. Then the empty string is … Read more
The output is escaped, so it will not display html, try this : just save the value of the src attribute <iframe src=”<?php echo esc_attr__( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘name’, true ) ); ?>” width=”670″ height=”500″>
