It didn’t say in the API docs on the Yoast SEO plugin site what the ID was and I don’t have a copy of Yoast at installed at disposal, but according to yoas-plugin-dir/admin/class-metabox.php line 144, the meta_box registered is; add_meta_box( ‘wpseo_meta’, …etc ); … Which is hooked onto add_meta_boxes hook on line 32 of the … Read more
Improved Answer I’ve decided to revisit this question after realising how unnecesarily hacky it is. The the best solution is to to remove the metabox, and then re-add it, specifying an alternative title. Here’s an example for the post post-type. add_action( ‘add_meta_boxes_post’, ‘wpse39446_add_meta_boxes’ ); function wpse39446_add_meta_boxes() { remove_meta_box( ‘authordiv’, ‘post’, ‘core’ ); add_meta_box( ‘authordiv’, __(‘Team … Read more
The remove_meta_box() function will not work with the Block Editor, because these are now Panels and work differently. There is currently no documentation on how to disable Panels, but, let’s dance. We want to avoid hiding panels via CSS, and rely on the JS API. We need to use the JS function removeEditorPanel() which will … Read more
The difference between normal and advanced is that normal will be placed on the page before advanced. For example the following will display “One” before “Two” function admin_init_test() { add_meta_box(‘one’, __(‘One’), ‘test_one’, ‘post’, ‘advanced’); add_meta_box(‘two’, __(‘Two’), ‘test_two’, ‘post’, ‘normal’); } add_action(‘admin_init’, ‘admin_init_test’); function test_two() { echo “<p>test_two</p>”; } function test_one() { echo “<p>test_one</p>”; } If … Read more
You can simply hide the options using CSS. This will add a display:none style to the misc and minor publishing actions on the post.php and post-new.php pages. It checks for a specific post type as well since all post types use these two files. function hide_publishing_actions(){ $my_post_type=”POST_TYPE”; global $post; if($post->post_type == $my_post_type){ echo ‘ <style … Read more
Here is code I have used before – the main difference looks to me that you are checking if the meta exists rather than what it’s value is to determine if it should be checked. // Checkbox Meta add_action(“admin_init”, “checkbox_init”); function checkbox_init(){ add_meta_box(“checkbox”, “Checkbox”, “checkbox”, “post”, “normal”, “high”); } function checkbox(){ global $post; $custom = … Read more
No, but it should 😉 There are several custom field class’s (backend). wpAlchemy : https://github.com/farinspace/wpalchemy Meta Box Script: https://github.com/rilwis/meta-box My-Meta-Box: https://github.com/bainternet/My-Meta-Box meta-box-class: https://github.com/corycrowley/meta-box-class Meta Boxes Class: https://github.com/Bakke/Wordpress-Custom-Meta-Boxes-Class For front-end forms, you probably best off with a plugin in Eugene Manuilov’s link.
The functionality you want may be built from scratch but definitely a custom fields plugin will make your life much easier. I use Advanced Custom Fields, and it gives amazing results and the possibilities are endless. I haven’t used this one, but it seems pretty good too.
See this media uploader skeleton. You can also use it in your custom markup, like Meta Box. A hint, check, that you only use the scripts on the page, where you active your Meta Box. Otherwise is it often a problem on the default pages and the uploader. Now a attempt to clear the important … Read more
You can do this by hand, but WP natively does it like this for settings errors: add_settings_error() to create message. Then set_transient(‘settings_errors’, get_settings_errors(), 30); settings_errors() in admin_notices hook to display (will need to hook for non-settings screens).
