How to update/delete array in post meta value?

To update post meta that are an array: you have to fetch the original values, change the value you need and update it again. For example $list_of_values = get_post_meta($post_id, ‘_list_values’, true); if(!empty($list_of_values)) { $list_of_values[“some_prop”] = “new value”; } update_post_meta($post_id, ‘_list_values’, $list_of_values);

Why is get_post_meta returning an array when I specify it as single?

This works fine if I’m only returning data for a single meta key…but fails if I want to return all of the meta data, but return them all as strings (single). This doesn’t make a lot of sense. A function in PHP can only return a single value so there is no way to return … Read more

Why time functions show invalid time zone when using ‘c’ time format?

The issue is that for correct output WP needs to process date through date_i18n() function. When you use date format, hardcoded in PHP code (not simply saved in PHP DATE_* constant) like ‘c’ – it’s not available to your code and so for WP to process. System-wide fix would be to re-process date with analogous … Read more

How to access the post meta of a post that has just been published?

Solved it! Used save_post to run push_notification() as well as to run the function save_post_meta() that saves my post meta. The problem occurred coz push_notification() gets fired before save_post_meta() due to which the meta wasn’t being saved and therefore it remained inaccessible. Just changed priorities of the functions to make it work like so : … Read more

publish_post action hook doesn’t give post_meta_data

If the wp_send_json() function is sending the right data, but for some reason you want to use another function to actually send the JSON data, then you can use wp_json_encode(). This is basically the only thing that wp_send_json() does before sending off the data. add_action( ‘publish_post’, ‘wpse_228607_publish_post’, 10, 2 ); function wpse_228607_publish_post( $post_id, $post ){ … Read more
