post-meta

Should I save this mulit dementional arary as one post meta?

In most cases its better to store the meta as a single array and in that save database queries. The only down side to storing the data as an array is it’s nearly impossible to query based on sirealized data. So my rule is if i need to query based on that data the it … Read more

query posts and split meta information into separate div’s

You’ll have a difficult time doing that with wp_list_pages(). You will need to create a custom query loop, using either WP_Query() or get_posts(). Custom loop with 4 most recent posts <?php $recent_posts_query_args = array( ‘posts_per_page’ => 4 ); $recent_posts = new WP_Query( $recent_posts_query_args ); // Open custom loop if ( $recent_posts->have_posts() ) : while ( … Read more

how to get a list of meta data fields assocaited with a custom post type

I assume that you are talking about post meta– data stored in the $wpdb->postmeta table when you talk about “meta data fields”. The data in that table is associated with particular posts, of whatever type. It is not in any way keyed directly to the post type itself. There would be no way to connect … Read more

update_post_meta not working in plugin

I figured it out. Something was wrong with using ‘$id’ in update_post_meta. I changed this: function ajax_posted() { $votes_plus = $_POST[‘votes’]+1; $id = $_POST[‘post’]; if (update_post_meta($id, ‘votes’, $votes_plus)) { $votes_ret = get_post_meta($id, ‘votes’, true); echo “Thanks for voting! “.$votes_ret.” vote.”; } else { echo “Voting failed!”; } die(); } to this: function ajax_posted() { $id … Read more

Why does get_transient() always return string even if integer set?

Transients are stored as options in the wp_options table (in most cases). All option values are always converted to strings when stored. The table that holds them has the option_value column defined as longtext, and the option functions escape to string values when creating the SQL. Thus, bare integers will be converted to strings. Since … Read more

Display get_post_meta if contains value

I actually managed to achieve what I needed to do in the end by using the below:- <?php if(get_post_meta($id, “h1_title_override”, true) !== ”) { ?> <h1><?php title_override_text(); ?></h1> <?php } else { ?> <h1><?php title_text(); ?></h1> <?php } ?> With the necessary functions in place of course…
