This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I would like to filter the options shown in the Post Relationship field in the post editor screen. Only the current User's posts should be shown here.
Solution: There is not a good way to do this in wp-admin, but you can use generic fields in CRED to accomplish something similar.
- Create a CRED form to add posts and insert a generic select field
- Create a View of posts, filtered by author, where the author is the current User
- In the Loop Output editor, insert this code to replace the default wpv-loop tags:
<wpv-loop>
[wpv-item index=1]
{"value":"[wpv-post-id]","label":"[wpv-post-title]"}
[wpv-item index=other]
,{"value":"[wpv-post-id]","label":"[wpv-post-title]"}
</wpv-loop>
- Add the following custom code to your functions.php file:
add_filter( 'wpv_filter_wpv_view_shortcode_output', 'prefix_clean_view_output', 5, 2 );
function prefix_clean_view_output( $out, $id ) {
$ids = array( 12345 );
if ( in_array( $id, $ids )) {
$start = strpos( $out, '<!-- wpv-loop-start -->' );
if (
$start !== false
&& strrpos( $out, '<!-- wpv-loop-end -->', $start ) !== false
) {
$start = $start + strlen( '<!-- wpv-loop-start -->' );
$out = substr( $out , $start );
$end = strrpos( $out, '<!-- wpv-loop-end -->' );
$out = substr( $out, 0, $end );
} else {
$start = strpos( $out, '>' );
if ( $start !== false) {
$out = substr( $out, $start + 1 );
$end = strpos( $out, '<' );
$out = trim(substr( $out, 0, $end ));
}
}
}
return $out;
}
add_action('cred_save_data', 'cred_belongs_impresa_action',10,2);
function cred_belongs_impresa_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
$forms = array( 67890, 98765 );
// if a specific form
if (in_array($form_data['id'], $forms))
{
if (isset($_POST['selectcompany']))
{
update_post_meta( $post_id, '_wpcf_belongs_impresa_id', $_POST['selectcompany'] );
}
}
}
- Change 12345 to match the ID of the View
- Change 67890, 98765 to be a comma-separated list of CRED form IDs (your edit and add CRED forms)
- Place the View of posts inside the options of the generic select field:
[cred_generic_field field='your-field-slug' type='select' class='' urlparam='']
{
"required":0,
"validate_format":0,
"default":[],
"options":[ [wpv-view name="your-parent-post-view-slug"] ]
}
[/cred_generic_field]

Hello Christian, no I was talking about the field on the backend, I have enclosed an image, if this can help... As regarding the solution you're suggesting, I will be looking into it tomorrow, because it's late here now and this needs particular attention. Regardless of this answer of mine, where I am showing you the image about what I was talking about, can we leave this ticket open so if I decide to go with the option you suggested I can use this ticket to ask for your help? Thank you!
Dear Chris,
I did everything you told me to do but it's not working the way it's supposed to. I am enclosing a couple images for you to see. I have also created an admin user for you, if you want to take a look.
Fyi :
- "impresa" is the cpt that stores companies
- "Opportunità Impresa" is the cpt that stores job opportunities offered by companies
- "Scuole" is the cpt that stores schools
- "Opportunità Scuole" is the cpt that stores job experiences requested by schools for the students
1. I changed your functions.php file to point to the correct View ID:
function prefix_clean_view_output( $out, $id ) {
$ids = array( 220 );
if ( in_array( $id, $ids )) {
2. I unchecked "Non include la pagina attuale nel risultato del query" in the View. This can cause problems in queries so if you don't need it, don't check it.
3. I published a post so I could test: hidden link
4. It seems to work correctly now, so I trashed the post I created.
