Just do a query with WP_Query using the Custom Field parameters (meta_query) to look for posts with the meta key and the value – exemplary code: // args to query for your key $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘your_post_type’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘videoid’, ‘value’ => $new_posts_videoid // for example: ‘111’ ) ), … Read more
You can use Javascript to create a first-line convenience warning, but that is not a secure solution. You will need to interrupt the post save to truly create a required field. function req_meta_wpse_96762($data){ $allow_pending = false; if (isset($_POST[‘meta’])) { foreach ($_POST[‘meta’] as $v) { if (‘your_required_key’ === $v[‘key’] && !empty($v[‘value’])) { $allow_pending = true; } … Read more
The editor is hard-coded into the form. It isn’t inserted by add_meta_box. There is a hook called edit_form_after_title which you should be able to use though. Proof of concept: // use the action to create a place for your meta box function add_before_editor($post) { global $post; do_meta_boxes(‘post’, ‘pre_editor’, $post); } add_action(‘edit_form_after_title’,’add_before_editor’); // add a box … Read more
I know that the plugin Advanced Custom Field does that. Checking its code, I saw that he deals with this issue using jQuery. Using it as reference, I think this should work for you: /* * Change Meta Box visibility according to Page Template * * Observation: this example swaps the Featured Image meta box … Read more
It’s a matter of wrapping the jQuery into document.ready, add a handler to the items and configure the sortable: add_action( ‘add_meta_boxes’, ‘metabox_wpse_66122’ ); function metabox_wpse_66122() { add_meta_box( ‘my_sortable’, __( ‘My Sortable’ ), ‘sortable_wpse_66122’, ‘post’ ); } function sortable_wpse_66122() { echo ‘<ul class=”sortable ui-sortable”>’; $posts = get_posts( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘posts_per_page’ => … Read more
That is a weird way to do it, shortcodes are really meant for inserting into the editor, if you want to program some functionality it’s better to go straight into the template/code itself. //check if post format is gallery type if ( has_post_format( ‘gallery’ ) { echo do_shortcode(”); }
I found that this works: add_action(‘admin_init’, ‘rw_remove_dashboard_widgets’); function rw_remove_dashboard_widgets() { remove_meta_box(‘wpdm_dashboard_widget’, ‘dashboard’, ‘normal’); } I guess ‘admin_init’ is the key, so that it runs before the dashboard is loaded.
I don’t exactly know what happened, but I got it working! All cleaned up and ready to use… Here you go guys: /** * * This is the filter that adds the affiliate box to the end of the article * */ add_filter(‘the_content’, ‘weedub_affiliate_filter’, 9); function weedub_affiliate_filter($content) { $string_to_add = ”; // only add on … Read more
This might be caused because you have tried to move your custom meta box to some place and WordPress respects the user’s ordering/positioning of these boxes. You can do as gmazzap has told because this will create a new user with blank preferences. Or you can login to your database, find DBPREFIX_usermeta (DBPREFIX is your … Read more
Be sure to set the value in your markup. You should have. <input type=”checkbox” name=”changeposition” value=”yes” /> Then, I’d suggest using sanitize_key() to sanitize. Keys are used as internal identifiers. Lowercase alphanumeric characters, dashes and underscores are allowed. Think of the word yes, as a key. That’s what you’re expecting is a lowercase alphanumeric value. … Read more
