<a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em> format="meta" meta='ID']">[wpv-post-author format="meta" meta="nickname"] </a> <a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em> format="meta" meta='ID']">[types usermeta='logo' size='thumbnail' align='none' resize='proportional' user_is_author='true'][/types]</a>
How can I save this code in the functions.php file?
I do not know PHP well and despite many attempts I am not successful.
And this shortcode is a complete puzzle
[wpv-conditional if="( (empty($(_thumbnail_id))) )"] <a href="[wpv-post-url]"><div class="replace"></div></a> [/wpv-conditional]
I would be grateful for the help, or at least pointing out how I can add those pieces of code in functions.php.
I will add that I want to include this in the function in which I show elements in this way:
..... $price = types_render_field( "price", array( "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $content .= "<div class='price'>". $price ."</div>; .....
I do not know if it matters, but it may help to explain what I mean.
Dear Bochnacki,
There are lots of Types & Views shortcode in your codes, I suggest you store them into a content template:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/view-templates/
And display the content template with PHP codes using Views function render_view_template():
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views-api/#render_view_template
I ask how shortcodes save in PHP code form, and you refer me to the tutorial - how to make a template "... using only HTML and no PHP"...
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views-api/#render_view_template is also not helpful, because in this case shows nonsensical view - screen "bad-view.jpg".
This probably means that the view is rendered in a particular environment. This is the code responsible for displaying your favorite posts.
My current code looks like this:
// favorites function wptypes_listvfav_func($atts=array(), $content=null) { extract( shortcode_atts( array(), $atts ) ); if (function_exists('wpfp_get_users_favorites')): $favorite_post_ids = wpfp_get_users_favorites(); $limit = 10; $content .= ""; if ($favorite_post_ids): $c = 0; $favorite_post_ids = array_reverse($favorite_post_ids); foreach ($favorite_post_ids as $post_id) { if ($c++ == $limit) break; $p = get_post($post_id); $favcena = types_render_field( "cena", array( "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $opcjeceny = types_render_field( "opcje-ceny", array( "separator" => ", ", "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $krotkiopis = types_render_field( "krotki-opis", array( "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $przebieg = types_render_field( "przebieg", array( "format" => "FIELD_VALUE", "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $rokprodukcji = types_render_field( "rok-produkcji", array( "format" => "FIELD_VALUE", "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $rodzajpaliwa = types_render_field( "rodzaj-paliwa", array( "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $pojemnoscsilnika = types_render_field( "pojemnosc-silnika", array( "format" => "FIELD_VALUE", "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $lokalizacja = types_render_field( "lokalizacja", array( "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id )); $vendorstatus = get_term_meta( "wpv-post-author", array( "meta" => "ID", "output" => "html", "post_id"=>$post_id ) ); $content .= "<div class='ad favorites'><div class='ad-thumb'>"; $content .= get_the_post_thumbnail ( $post_id ). "</div> <div class='ad-data'><div class='ad-title'><a href='".get_permalink($post_id)."' title='". $p->post_title ."'><h2>".$p->post_title."</h2></a></div><div class='ad-price'>". $favcena ."</div><div class='price-note'>". $opcjeceny ."</div><div class='ad-items'><div class='ad-items-left'><div class='ad-desc'>". $krotkiopis ."</div><div class='ad-item-milage'>". $przebieg ."</div>". $vendorstatus."<div class='ad-item-year'>". $rokprodukcji ."</div><div class='ad-item-fuel'>". $rodzajpaliwa ."</div><div class='ad-item-capacity'>". $pojemnoscsilnika ."</div><div class='ad-item-location'>". $lokalizacja ."</div></div><div class='ad-items-right'> <div class='cont-form-pop popup'>"; $content .= "</div><a class='ad-item-delete' href='?wpfpaction=remove&page=1&postid=$post_id'>Usuń z Ulubionych</a></div></div></div></div>"; } else: $content .= ""; $content .= "<h4 class='fav-empty'>Tu jest miejsce na Twoje ulubione ogłoszenia</h4>"; $content .= ""; endif; $content .= ""; endif; return $content; } add_shortcode('wptypes_listvfav', 'wptypes_listvfav_func');
"correct-view.jpg" shows what I've done so far.
I need some more items that I wrote in the beginning, but I do not know how to save them in PHP.
Hello Bochnacki - Luo is on vacation. This is Minesh here and I'll take care of this ticket.
Well - we have number of Docs available that will guide you how you can customize your site using Toolset with PHP:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/
I suggest you follow the guidance given with above doc and try to resolve your issue. If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact me here 🙂
Minesh, thanks for the hint.
I have not had time to do this yet. I will try to take care of this and let you know.
Unfortunately, my PHP knowledge is too weak for me to use good examples from the link you provided.
I can not even put [wpv-post-author format = "meta" meta = "nickname"] into my code, which I showed above ...
- Could you please tell me what information you want to display and where?
- Please share problem URL?
*** 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.
Oh, I see that in pasted shortcodes [] (square brackets) it changes to
[ ]
and I can not change it.
I hope this will not be a problem for you.
Well - for this page:
hidden link
Could you please tell me which template are you using and path of this PHP template file?
If you are asking for a WordPress template, then I use "Auto-box", my own template.
If you ask how I display "favorite", then I'm using the "Ulubione" layout ( hidden link ) that is assigned to the "Ulubione" page. But there is only a shortcode [wptypes_listvfav][/wptypes_listvfav], and the PHP (this shortcode) code showing the positions on "Ulubione" is in the functions.php file.
I hope it will help 🙂
Yes - it helps a lot to understand the things. Thanks a lot.
Now, I've another question is that the favorite posts belong to CPT "Osobowe" only or you can make any post type as the favorite?
All CPT: "Osobowe", "Dostawcze",...
There are no views yet for all CTP, but the items/fields I want to show in 'favorites' will be the same as in "Osobowe".
Could you please check now.
I've created the view: "display-favorites" - this view have same code as you wanted - if you want, you can change/delete/modify the view output as you wanted.
=> hidden link
I've added folloing code to your functions.php file:
function search_filter($query) { global $WP_Views; if ( !is_admin() ) { if($WP_Views->current_view==1753) { if (function_exists('wpfp_get_users_favorites')){ $favorite_post_ids = wpfp_get_users_favorites(); $favorite_post_ids = array_reverse($favorite_post_ids); $query->set('post__in', $favorite_post_ids); $query->set( 'order', 'ASC' ); } } } }
And I can see the same output so no need to add/use the custom shortcode you created.
So - I've added the view to layout:
=> hidden link
You can delete the unwanted shortcode you added to layout now.
Well ... Thanks for the help, but that's not what I meant.
It does not work like "favorite".
You can not add a post to a "favorite" or delete it from a "favorite". This is simply a copy of posts from the category (in this case, "osobowe").
