You will need to save them as an array and currently your HTML is not in the correct format to do this. <label for=”my-cpt-32″> <input type=”checkbox” name=”cpt_ids[]” value=”32″ id=”my-cpt-32″ /> My CPT #32 </label> <label for=”my-cpt-41″> <input type=”checkbox” name=”cpt_ids[]” value=”41″ id=”my-cpt-41″ /> My CPT #41 </label> <label for=”my-cpt-43″> <input type=”checkbox” name=”cpt_ids[]” value=”42″ id=”my-cpt-43″ /> My … Read more
This line is wrong: ‘meta_key’ => ‘adminscore’ + ‘user_like’ + ‘_count-views_all’ + ‘comment_count’, ‘meta_key’ only accepts string value. What you need is an additional meta key, e.g. “totalscore” that holds the total value of the scores you have for all the meta values. You can manually run a php function that calculates and store the … Read more
If it’s information that logically belongs to a post/page – you store it in postmeta (with update_post_meta function). If it’s something that pertains to a user – usermeta table is for you. More still, there’s Settings API in case you have a plugin that needs to persist any settings. From your question it is somewhat … Read more
background is not a Core meta field. Since you say that get_post_meta( ’22’, ‘background’, true ); returns an image ID, I can only assume that whatever saved that value saved the image ID and not the filename. You can convert the filename to an URL with wp_get_attachment_url() or get other information including a partial file … Read more
Okay as you added output of array. You can use the following to get the result. This will print the value of test meta key. <button><?php $my_meta = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘test’, true ); echo $my_meta[“test”]; ?></button> if your meta key is custom-name then you can get it like this. <?php $my_meta = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘custom-name’, … Read more
All of these cost another DB Query (each!), and worse still since they are in a loop each one happens around 300 times. Don’t panic! The posts from your query are stored in WordPress’ object cache (which is simply memory, unless you have a custom cache system in place). All functions that operate on posts … Read more
You’re very likely running that outside of the loop. To confirm, try the following: $post_id = get_the_ID(); $current_rank = get_post_meta( $post_id, ‘current_rank’, true); echo ‘Post ID is: ‘ . $post_id; echo ‘<br> Current Rank is: ‘ . $current_rank; Are you getting post ID printed on the page? Is the current rank showing empty? Then the … Read more
Your approach is good, you should run a basic check against the data tough. Otherwise you might get an array or a serialized object … which might lead to unexpected consequences (including security issues!) when you or someone else is trying to print the values. Maybe something like this is easier: $key = ‘_my_meta_key’; $value … Read more
update_field() is ACF function so I would guess the issue is with it. From quick look at source it calls get_field_object() and so on, so environment might not be sufficient for it to work correctly during import. There is no “half” state for native meta data, either it exists in database or it doesn’t. You … Read more
Just change, <?php if ( ‘post’ === get_post_type() ) codilight_meta_1();?> to <?php if ( ‘post’ === get_post_type() || ‘reviews’ === get_post_type()) codilight_meta_1();?>
