Import data from arbitrary CSV to WPAlchemy meta fields

Here’s a piece of code similar to what I have used to fix the problem once imported the data: <?php define(‘MY_METABOX_ID’, ‘my_metabox_id’); define(‘MY_METABOX_PREFIX’, ‘my_metabox_prefix_’); define(‘MY_CUSTOM_POST_TYPE’, ‘my_custom_post_type’); // Include WordPress define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false); define(‘WP_DEBUG’, 1); require_once(‘../wp-load.php’); // extract all MY_CUSTOM_POST_TYPE posts $q = new WP_Query(‘post_type=” . MY_CUSTOM_POST_TYPE . “&nopaging=true’); // for each post while($q->have_posts()) { $q->next_post(); $p … Read more

Form fields based on custom fields

Our solution to this was to use Formidable Pro and the following setup. //************************************************** // Generate the contest form //************************************************** // Determin if radio or not add_filter(‘frm_field_type’, ‘change_my_field_type’, 10, 2); function change_my_field_type($type, $field){ global $post; if($field->id == 8){ if (get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘_cmeta_contest_q1_type’, true) !== ‘field’) { $type=”radio”; //change field to radio on multi-answer questions } else … Read more

How to add a prefix to existing custom fields over MYSQL query?

important: backup your database first! Assuming your table prefix is ‘wp_’, this query will change the custom field names: update wp_postmeta set meta_key = ‘booking_testfield’ where meta_key = ‘testfield’; NB: this also assumes that the custom field name is unique to your application, i.e. it isn’t used by another post type. If it is possible … Read more

Metabox nonce not allowing update

The issue was that you should have changed product_noncename to goal_info_meta_box_nonce. I’ve also made a few other changes, commenting out the old lines for comparison, which should avoid any further errors (including the undefined index). // verify nonce // if ( ! isset( $_POST[‘product_noncename’] ) || ! wp_verify_nonce( $_POST[‘goal_info_meta_box_nonce’], basename( __file__ ) ) ) { … Read more

WP_Query based on multiple metadata comparisons

You could split this into two WP_Querys: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘match_report’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘meta_key’ => ‘report_type’, ‘meta_value’ => ‘cup’, ‘fields’ => ‘ids’ ); $reportsPre = new WP_Query($args); $post_IDs = array(); if(isset($reportsPre->posts) && !empty($reportsPre->posts)){ foreach((array) $reportsPre->posts as $id) { $post_IDs[] = $id; } } $args2 = array( ‘post__in’ => array($post_IDs), ‘meta_query’ => array( … Read more

Custom field in a shortcode?

$post is global variable, so it’s not visible in this scope (and when you use $post in your code, you’re not referring to global $post variable but to local one) You should put global $post somewhere in your code. For example like this: … while ($loop->have_posts()){ global $post; $loop->the_post(); $output .= ‘<li><a href=”‘.get_permalink().'”><img src=”‘.get_post_meta($post->ID,’wpcf-udstiller-logo’,true).'”/></a></li>’; } … Read more
