How can I loop through the fields and display the content without having to deplicate it? This for loop will cycle through the four field names to avoid duplication. <?php for ($i=1; $i<=4; $i++) { $fieldName=”featured_content_” . $i; $featuredContentPostID = get_field($fieldName)->ID; $selectedFeaturedContent = get_post( $featuredContentPostID ); ?> <li> <a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/204839/<?php echo esc_url( get_permalink($featuredContentPostID) ); ?>”> … Read more

Insert image into sub-field with update_post_meta

Yeah, don’t do that. The database is not made to store HTML, HTML and PHP are made for that. You’ll want to just save the image. For example: update_post_meta($post_id, $name, $img); $name is the name of the postmeta in the database and $img is the URL of the image. To later on display the image: … Read more

Convert all dates stored in custom field

Find the correct key for game_date_key and run this once: global $wpdb; $posts = $wpdb->get_results(“SELECT ID FROM “.$wpdb->prefix.”posts” WHERE post_type=”post”); foreach ($posts as $post) { $old_date = get_post_meta($post->ID,’game_date_key’,true); $new_date = date(‘d/m/Y’, strtotime($old_date)); update_post_meta($post->ID,’game_date_key’,$new_date,$old_date); } (I assume you will have the sense to backup your database first just in case. 🙂

Update custom field values on edit address page woocommerce

I know it’s too late to answer your question but its too easy and simple: Your code is always exiting from function at line 6 because the results of your if expression always returns true at line 5: if ( isset( $wp_query->query_vars[‘edit-address’] ) && $wp_query->query_vars[‘edit-address’] != ‘billing’ ) { // above expression results would be: … Read more

Save all custom field data into one “master” custom field

Display posts with empty custom field

You probably need the NOT EXISTS meta_compare value. This will test if a meta value exists or not for that particular key. Also, as I pointed out in comments, caller_get_posts is long time deprecated, a notice you should have clearly recieved if you had debubbing turned on. The correct parameter is ignore_sticky_posts and accepts 0 … Read more

Custom field as featured image caption

Here’s one way to inject the custom field as the featured image caption with help of the post_thumbnail_html filter: add_filter( ‘post_thumbnail_html’, function( $html, $post_id ) { if( $html && $caption = get_post_meta( $post_id, ‘wpcf-bildunterschrift’, true ) ) $html .= sprintf( ‘<p>%s</p>’, sanitize_text_field( $caption ) ); return $html; }, 10, 2 ); Hopefully you can adjust … Read more

Can I save post meta programatically without setting metaboxes?

You should always use update_post_meta() function because if the term doesn’t exist it will make a call to the add_post_meta() automatically. The same goes for update_user_meta(). Example if you want to add the meta “City” but you don’t have it in the db you simply make a update_post_meta($city) and in $city you need the post_id … Read more

Display custom field from the front page on another page

$val = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘meta_data_name’, true ); echo $val; You can replace get_the_ID() with the ID of the post you are getting the meta from. You could possible team this with: $frontpage_id = get_option(‘page_on_front’); to get the homepage ID. Not sure if this would be friendly with multisite though. the_field() is an Advanced Custom Fields … Read more
