Hi,

i would have a shortcode that repeats all fields of Date to sort or show Parent of rfg in slider etc.
But my Shortcode-function will only show always the first field of slug "datum-und-uhrzeit" in rfg group "termine-veranst" of rfg.

this is shortcode which works in view
[insert_metadata postidmy="[wpv-post-id]"]

i provide at: hidden link (output is on screenshot red rectangle)

This is the code for the Shortcode in my functions.php:

function myownfunc( $atts ) {
$post_id = $atts['postidmy'];
$fieldvalues = toolset_get_related_posts( get_the_ID(), "termine-veranst", array( 'query_by_role' => 'parent', 'return' => 'post_object'));
foreach ($fieldvalues as $fieldvalue) {
$partone = types_render_field('datum-und-uhrzeit', array('post_id' => $fieldvalue->ID));
return $partone;
}
}
add_shortcode( 'insert_metadata', 'myownfunc' );

can you help me?

thx - alex

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

When you use return statement the control of the function will return and will not loop though. To loop through every iteration we will require to store the values to array.

Can you please try to use the following code:

function myownfunc( $atts ) {
$post_id = $atts['postidmy'];
$fieldvalues = toolset_get_related_posts( get_the_ID(), "termine-veranst", array( 'query_by_role' => 'parent', 'return' => 'post_object'));

$temp = array();
foreach ($fieldvalues as $fieldvalue) {
$partone = types_render_field('datum-und-uhrzeit', array('post_id' => $fieldvalue->ID));
$temp[] = $partone;

return "<li>".join("</li><li>",$temp)."</li>";
}
}
add_shortcode( 'insert_metadata', 'myownfunc' );

Hi Minesh,

all good - i moved return outside of foreach-loop. - it works!

function myownfunc( $atts ) {
    $post_id = $atts['postidmy'];
    $fieldvalues = toolset_get_related_posts( get_the_ID(), "termine-veranst", array( 'query_by_role' => 'parent', 'return' => 'post_object'));
     
    $temp = array();
    foreach ($fieldvalues as $fieldvalue) {
    $partone = types_render_field('datum-und-uhrzeit', array('post_id' => $fieldvalue->ID));
    $temp[] = $partone;
     
    
    }
    return "<li>".join("</li><li>",$temp)."</li>";
    }
    add_shortcode( 'insert_metadata', 'myownfunc' );

thx - alex

Hey Minesh,

one thing about the datum-und-uhrzeit field in rfg.

1. why doesnt it show the time? I used date and time in rfg field
2. can i compare it to actual date and time -> if it in paste i would remove it

thx - alex
