Problem: I would like to display information from two different grandparent post types on a parent post. I would also like to create a Form that creates child posts, and insert a link to that Form on the parent post so that the parent is automatically selected.
Solution: Create a View of Requirement CPTs. In the Loop, you can insert the post title shortcode to display the related Company name. Click "Fields and Views", then "Post title", and you will be shown a popup. Click the "Post Selection" tab, then choose "A post related to the current post, set by a Types relationship". Next, select the Company post in your Company > Requirement post relationship.
Create the new Submission Post Form and insert it in a custom Page. Then return to the View of Requirements editor and use the Toolset Forms button above the Loop Editor to insert a "Create Child Post Link". Select the Page containing the Submission Post Form, and a link will be automatically inserted for you.
When Users click the link, they will be directed to the Page containing the new Submission Form. If you want to hide the parent select field in the Form, you can use CSS in the Form editor.
<div style="display:none;">
[cred_field field="@relationship-slug.parent" class="form-control" output="bootstrap" select_text="--- not set ---"]
</div>
Problem: I have a Form that creates posts and allows the User to choose two post parents from other post types. I would like to use the Forms API to automatically set the child post title to include the title of both parent posts.
Solution:
Add this hook:
add_action('cred_save_data', 'your_save_data_action',10,2);
function your_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
// if a specific form
if ($form_data['id']==138)
{
$docyear = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-year', true);
$custname = isset($_POST['@customer-requirement_parent']) ? get_the_title($_POST['@customer-requirement_parent']) : '';
$docname = isset($_POST['@document-master-list-requirement_parent']) ? get_the_title($_POST['@document-master-list-requirement_parent']) : '';
$drdetail= $docyear. ' - ' . $custname. ' - ' . $docname;
$args = array('ID' => $post_id, 'post_title' => $drdetail);
wp_update_post($args);
}
}
Problem:
The assignment of Content Templates seems to have been lost for a large number of posts. How is it possible to re-assign them without doing it manually.
Solution:
When editing a Content Template the usage section will contain a "Bind" button if there are posts that do not have the template assigned, which will assign it to all unassigned posts in bulk.
