Use WP_Query to select any post based on meta key and value. You can also sort posts Ex: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘events’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, //probably you will need this because the value is date ‘meta_key’ => ‘event_date’, ‘meta_query’ => array( ‘relation’ => ‘AND’, array( ‘key’ => ‘event_status’, ‘value’ => $retrieved_status, ‘compare’ => … Read more
For updating and saving use add_action( ‘edit_term’, ‘save_termmeta_tag’ );
Ok, I was doing it wrong, here’s a working solution, based on Justin Tadlock’s tutorial. <?php /* Add custom profile fields (call in theme : echo $curauth->fieldname;) */ add_action( ‘show_user_profile’, ‘my_show_extra_profile_fields’ ); add_action( ‘edit_user_profile’, ‘my_show_extra_profile_fields’ ); function my_show_extra_profile_fields( $user ) { ?> <?php if(user_can($user->ID, “paying_member”)) : ?> <h3>Extra profile information</h3> <table class=”form-table”> <tr> <th><label for=”paypal_account”>Paypal</label></th> … Read more
