I am trying to save data to custom fields in repeatable group to make a movie poll. I had opened ticket number: #1199537

I tried to make it working, but It does nothing. Can you tell me, what is wrong? hidden link

//movie poll
add_action('cred_save_data','upvote',10,2);
function upvote($post_id,$form_data) {
    if ($form_data['id']==737) {
		$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
		update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-voter-nicknames', $current_user, true );
	}
	else {
		$votes = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-vote-count' );
		$increase = (1 + $votes);
		update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-vote-count', $increase, true );
	}
}

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you please share the old ticket URL?

I need to understand first the structure. is vote-count field is part to repeating field group?

If you can share problem URL and access details that will help me to understand your structure.

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

Can you please share the problem URL where you added the view?

[martinH-10]

Yep, it is in the first post: hidden link , thanks

I checked on your install and I see you added the form to view:
=> hidden link

When I checked the form - the form belongs to the "events" post type:
=> hidden link

As I understand - you wanted to update the vote for the field "vote count" which belongs to the repeating field group "Movie info". I think you need the select post type "movie info" and create the edit form so that you can update the vote to the selected movie.

Please check the following Doc:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/getting-started-with-toolset/creating-and-displaying-repeatable-field-groups/front-end-forms-for-repeatable-field-groups/#forms-for-editing-values-of-existing-repeatable-field-groups

Please correct me if I misunderstand your query.

Thats the point! I have changed the form to edit the repeatable group, cool.

But still it does nothing when I vote. Can you help me fix the PHP function?

[Minesh]

I've set the following for to "edit":
=> hidden link

Then, I've removed the code you added to the functions.php file and adjusted and added the code to the "Custom Code" section of Toolset:
=> hidden link

add_action('cred_save_data','func_upvote',10,2);
function func_upvote($post_id,$form_data) {
    if ($form_data['id']==737) {
		$votes = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-vote-count',true);
		$increase = (1 + $votes);
		update_post_meta( $post_id,'wpcf-vote-count', $increase);
	}
}

As you can see now with the following link and click on submit button the vote is increased:
=> hidden link

Do you also want to store the field "voter-nicknames" with the current logged in user nickname each time?

[martinH-10]

Wow! that is cool, i didnt know i can add the code to the toolset custom code. Cool.

I need to save the voter nickname and also disable him vor other vote on current post. Is it possible? Then it should display all voters there.
