I have CPTs (Breeds and Dogs) and have one-to-many relationship (Breeds Dogs) where Breeds is the parent.
Breed CPT does not, but Dog CPT will accept user posts via forms.
1) In creating the Dog form i could choose fields which include 'Breed'. I'm happy with this as I can make it mandatory. however, it alone does not create a post relationship.
2) If i wanted to establish a post relationship I could choose Relationship field (Breeds Dogs) however I cannot make it a required field.
Can I stick to (1) but use codes to establish the post relation based on the field 'breeds'
OR was there something I missed to make (2) a mandatory item before accepting the post?
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Is there a similar example that we can see?
What is the link to your site?
I left both options on the form work in progress. hidden link
Ok - you can use the post relationship API function toolset_connect_posts() with Toolset Froms hook cred_save_data.
Add following code to your current theme's funcitons.php file:
add_action('cred_save_data', 'cred_custom_callback_fn',10,2);
function cred_custom_callback_fn($post_id, $form_data){
// if a specific form
if ($form_data['id'] == 2364 ){
if (isset($_POST['wpcf-breed'])){
$parent_id = $_POST['wpcf-breed'];
$parent = toolset_connect_posts( 'replace-relationship-slug', $parent_id, $post_id );
}
}
}
Where '
- 2364 is your Toolset form ID
- Replace replace-relationship-slug with your original post relationship slug.
Ok - would you mind to share access details so I can check whats going wrong there.
*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.
I would additionally need your permission to de- and re-activate Plugins and the Theme, and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is really important. If you agree to this, please use the form fields I have enabled below to provide temporary access details (wp-admin and FTP).
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
By checking the screenshots - the code looks almost OK but as you claim its not working I need to check this on your install to know why its not working.
Is it possible for you to send me access? If yes:
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
well - I need FTP access details OR if you do not able to share it - remove the following code from your functions.php file.
//Custom Post title from Custom Field
add_action('cred_save_data', 'custom_title',10,2);
function custom_title($post_id, $form_data)
{
// if form "Join the Community" and name field is populated
if ($form_data['id']==2364 && isset($_POST["wpcf-name"])) {
//set title of post to value of "name" field
$title = $_POST["wpcf-name"];
$my_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $title,
);
// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $my_post );
}
}
add_action('cred_save_data', 'cred_custom_callback_fn',10,2);
function cred_custom_callback_fn($post_id, $form_data){
// if a specific form
if ($form_data['id'] == 2364 ){
if (isset($_POST['wpcf-breed'])){
$parent_id = $_POST['wpcf-breed'];
$parent = toolset_connect_posts( 'replace-relationship-slug', $parent_id, $post_id );
}
}
}
Once you remove above code - let me know. I will take care of both the code.
