“You should not write to the DB on front end requests” is the eleventh commandment. Your performance will deteriorate due to the writes locking down the table much more than the impact the size of the table will have. You should probably write such data in files instead of DB, or at least use a … Read more
Note! This code was not tested! <?php function my_visitor_cookie($post_id) { if ( empty($post_id) ) { global $post; $post_id = $post->ID; } // get post meta $count = get_post_meta($post_id, ‘unique_post_visits’, true); // if there was no meta value if( empty($count) ) { $count = 0; } // check if cookie was already set (cookie name for … Read more
You’re almost there — you just need to add the comparison to your meta query: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘product’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘artist’, ‘value’ => $artistID, ‘compare’ => ‘=’ ) ) ); https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Meta_Query Remember to filter $artistID before accepting it in your query!
The ability to store abstract key-value pairs without modifying the database structure is the reason. Without that, WordPress loses much of its flexibility. I can’t speak for others, but the single largest reason why I develop atop WordPress is its flexible nature. To quote one of your links above, Usually the reasoning behind doing what … Read more
I have managed to fix it at my own. I have used following code to update post meta update_post_meta($post_id, ‘tb_data’, base64_encode(serialize($new_value_array))); …and following code to get post meta $tb_meta = get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘tb_data’, true); $tb_meta_unserialized = unserialize(base64_decode($tb_meta)); I hope this will help someone.
If you want to hide all the metaboxes for all users, you can do that through the get_user_option_metaboxhidden_{cpt}, default_hidden_meta_boxes or the hidden_meta_boxes filter, according to the /wp-admin/includes/screen.php file. Here’s an example for the post post type: /** * Hide all metaboxes in the global $wp_meta_boxes */ add_filter( ‘hidden_meta_boxes’, function( $hidden, $screen, $use_defaults ) { global … Read more
When you are saving the multidimensional array you can use this code: $product_img_path[$count][‘wpc_resize_thumb_img’] = $upload_dir[‘url’].”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”.$resize_img_name; $product_img_path[$count][‘wpc_resize_bid_img’] = $upload_dir[‘url’].”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”.$resize_big_img_name; update_post_meta($post->ID, ‘wpc_images’, $product_img_path); That way you can get multidimentional array like you want: Array ( [1] => Array ( [wpc_resize_thumb_img] => http://localhost/test/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Wallpaper_55-212×159.jpg [wpc_resize_big_img] => http://localhost/test/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Wallpaper_55-500×375.jpg ) [2] => Array ( [wpc_resize_thumb_img] => http://localhost/test/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Wallpaper_51-212×141.jpg [wpc_resize_big_img] => http://localhost/test/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Wallpaper_51-500×333.jpg ) … Read more
Wrong Assumptions @Rarst or @Dan-Cameron answers may work, but assume that when you are viewing a post type editing page, the metaboxes for the other post type are all registered. There are different case in which that won’t happen: If metaboxes are registered using “add_meta_boxes_{$post_type}” hook, instead of the more common, generic “add_meta_boxes” they won’t … Read more
I just ran a test with your code and in my opinion, this is not working because you have an error in the get_callback function. First time it will try to get the subtitle( or the timing_of_experience) but it will trigger an error because it doesn’t exists in the first place and this error will … Read more
You should avoid creating more tables. Just do it if you really have a good reason to. Note that wp_postmeta can store practically any kind of data, and simply using the get_post_meta function can do all the job in most cases. But if you must use another table, and taking it generally, then you’re looking … Read more
