I have a post relationship filter that gets all the Works in an Edition:

Select posts in a Editions Works relationship that are related to the Post with ID set by the URL parameter edition_id.

When these results are shown, I have a custom field filter that can then further filter these results based on the field called Medium:

Select items with field:
Medium is a string equal to URL_PARAM(wpv-wpcf-medium)

This allows me to see all of that editions works that are SATB, SAATB, orchestra, etc. At this point the dropdown correctly shows me ONLY those mediums that exist for the specific edition I'm in.

However, as soon as a choose a medium, the original post relationship is lost and I can suddenly see ALL the mediums for ALL editions on the site.

Have a look at the screenshots attached.

So my question is: how do I keep the original post relationship filter in place when using the custom field filter?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you please share problem URL from where I can select the Editor and share access details so I can review your current setup.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

Thank you for sharing access details but when I try to access your site - I see blank page with the following error:

This site can't be reach.
edafrican-composers-edition.co.za took too long to respond.

Is there any country wise restriction or blocking? if so, can you please remove those for now so that I can access your site.

It looks like you’re using the incorrect url. It’s

enlace oculto

I'm using the same site URL but somehow its not accessible at this end so I'm passing this ticket to Jamal who is having access to it.

Thanks Minesh. I'm not sure why you can't get to the URL. I'll check the logs and see.

Hello,

I logged into your website and checked this issue. When the AJAX search is performed and results are pulled the URL loses the edition_id. We can work around it by adding a hidden field to the view's search form that will hold the edition_id. This way, when AJAX calls have performed the view will get the edition_id from the hidden field and use it for filtering.

I added a snippet to Toolset->Settings->Custom Code that adds the hidden field:

add_filter( 'wpv_filter_end_filter_form', 'prefix_add_hidden_field_edition_id', 99, 3 );
function prefix_add_hidden_field_edition_id( $out, $view_settings, $view_id ) {
    $views = array( 9286 );
    if ( in_array( $view_id, $views) ) {
      $edition_id = isset($_GET['edition_id']) ? $_GET['edition_id'] : '';
      $out = '<input type="hidden" id="edition_id" name="edition_id" value="' . $edition_id . '" class="js-wpv-filter-trigger form-control" />' . $out;
    }
    return $out;
}

Please note, that the hidden field needs to have the class "js-wpv-filter-trigger" on it to work as expected.

Can you check now if this solves the issue or if I missed something else?

Thanks! This works now. Much appreciated.
