Problem: I have two address fields, one in a parent post type and one in a child post type. When a new child post is created, I would like to calculate the distance between the two addresses and save that distance in another custom field in the child post type.
Solution: You can use the cred_submit_complete hook to trigger custom code with the shortcode toolset-maps-distance-value to calculate the distance between two addresses. Use the update_post_meta function to store that distance in another custom field.
add_action('cred_submit_complete', 'tssupp_calc_parent_child_distance',10,2); function tssupp_calc_parent_child_distance($post_id, $form_data) { $forms = array(123, 456); $relationship_slug = 'book-chapter'; $parent_address_slug = 'book-address-1'; $child_address_slug = 'chapter-address-1'; $child_distance_slug = 'chapter-single-line-1'; $unit = 'km'; $decimals = 2; // if a specific form if ( in_array( $form_data['id'], $forms ) ) { $related_post = toolset_get_related_post( $post_id, $relationship_slug, 'parent' ); if( $related_post ) { $child_location = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-'.$child_address_slug, true ); $parent_location = get_post_meta( $related_post, 'wpcf-'.$parent_address_slug, true ); if( $child_location && $parent_location ) { $distance = do_shortcode("[toolset-maps-distance-value location='" . $child_location . "' postmeta='wpcf-". $parent_address_slug . "' postmeta_id='" . $related_post . "' unit='" . $unit . "' decimals='" . $decimals . "']"); update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-'.$child_distance_slug, $distance ); } } } }
