From the documentation: According to the JetPack JSON API docs: By default, all metadata keys are allowed in the API, as long as they are not protected keys. Any metadata key that starts with _ is by default protected. Protected metadata keys can, however, be accessed and edited by users with the edit_post_meta (used for … Read more
1) Using only the posts_orderby filter: It looks like you want to order the movies by the minimum of the wpcf-showtime meta values. You can modify the ORDER BY part of the SQL generated by the WP_Query, by using the posts_orderby filter. Here’s an example: add_filter( ‘posts_orderby’, ‘wpse_posts_orderby’ ); $ongoing_movies = new WP_Query( $args ); … Read more
Something like this should work: function wpa84258_admin_posts_sort_last_name( $query ){ global $pagenow; if( is_admin() && ‘edit.php’ == $pagenow && !isset( $_GET[‘orderby’] ) && !isset( $_GET[‘post_type’] ) ){ $query->set( ‘meta_key’, ‘last_name’ ); $query->set( ‘orderby’, ‘meta_value’ ); $query->set( ‘order’, ‘ASC’ ); } } add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘wpa84258_admin_posts_sort_last_name’ );
It is because you are giving wrong arguments. Provide right arguments to WP_Query(). Also have a look at the custom field parameters One more thing, you will have to use code like $args = array( ‘posts_per_page’ => 5, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘display’, ‘value’ => ‘about’, ‘compare’ => ‘=’, // (Read all comparison … Read more
When accepting user data inputs, I think that data validation must be performed if possible, not only sanitization. For example, you could expect a number, a bool value, a text string (even when the input is a selectbox it can have a string value), etc. You can santize for that data types; then you can … Read more
Just add an underscore before the metabox ID so the part of your code where you add a metabox looks something like this: $id = ‘_drama-description’; $title=”Description”; $callback = ‘drama_description_metabox_markup’; $screen = $post_type; $context=”normal”; $priority = ‘high’; $callback_args=”null”; add_meta_box($id, $title, $callback, $screen, $context, $priority, $callback_args); You also need to replace every occurance of drama-description to … Read more
It is quite complicates grouped request, so to avoid problems, consider to use Cleanup Duplicate Meta plugin. The reason why duplicate entries are occured is usage of add_post_meta(). Just use update_post_meta() (even to create meta, it works) – and you will have always one meta field with certain name per post.
When multiple meta values are used for same meta key, WordPress store the values in different database rows. So every array, is stored in one row. Initial Data Let’s assume you have an array like this: $family = [ ‘father’ => [ ‘John’, ‘Doe’, 40 ], ‘mother’ => [ ‘Jane’, ‘White’, 39 ], ‘child_1’ => … Read more
