register_post_type() has a registration option called ‘register_meta_box_cb’. Set that to a valid callback and it will call that function only when it is compiling the meta boxes for that post type’s edit screen. Something like this: register_post_type( ‘foo’, array( ‘public’ => true, ‘label’ => ‘foo’, ‘register_meta_box_cb’ => ‘bar’, )); function bar(){ add_meta_box(‘blah’, ‘blah’, /* etc … Read more
Take a look at the codex for a better understanding of queries of custom fields but it should look something like this: $subjects_array = explode(“_”, $_GET[“subjects”]); $args = array( ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘post_type’ => ‘any’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘field_name’, ‘value’ => $subjects_array, ‘compare’ => ‘IN’ ) ) ); $query = new WP_Query($args);
<?php $meta = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘Meta’, true ); $lan = qtrans_getLanguage(); $meta_lan = qtrans_use( $lan, $meta, true ); echo $meta_lan; ?> then enter your custom field data using the qtranslate comments: <!–:ca–>CA<!–:–><!–:es–>ES<!–:–><!–:en–>EN<!–:–>
There are two important global variables in wp-admin/nav-menus.php: $nav_menus is an array of all available menus, filled with wp_get_nav_menus(). $wp_meta_boxes[‘nav-menus’] is an array of all available metaboxes for this screen. We can hook into admin_head-nav-menus.php, an action called after the first variable has been set up, and change the second variable: add_action( ‘admin_head-nav-menus.php’, ‘t5_hide_dead_menu_metaboxes’ ); … Read more

You’re looking for the meta_box_cb argument. $args = array( ‘hierarchical’ => true, ‘labels’ => $labels, ‘show_ui’ => false, ‘show_admin_column’ => false, ‘show_in_menu’ => true, ‘show_in_nav_menus’ => true, ‘query_var’ => true, ‘rewrite’ => array( ‘slug’ => ‘wheel’ ), ‘meta_box_cb’ => false, ); register_taxonomy( ‘wheel’, array( ‘product’ ), $args ); You can also define a custom callback … Read more
It turns out the latest Advanced Custom Fields update (from version 5.6.0 on) removes the core custom fields metaboxes by default. The way to restore it was to add a filter in functions.php: add_filter(‘acf/settings/remove_wp_meta_box’, ‘__return_false’);
