Problem: I would like to include a single select field for selecting a taxonomy term in CRED. The taxonomy is flat, not hierarchical.
Solution: CRED does not support a single select field for flat taxonomies, so you can either convert the taxonomy to a hierarchical taxonomy or you can use a generic field and the CRED API.
Problem: I would like Users to be able to choose certain posts as favorites. They should also be able to remove them from favorites.
Solution:
Create a repeating numeric field on your post type called "favorites". This field will be updated to add the current User's ID when they select a favorite. When they unfavorite a post, this field will be updated to remove their ID.
Create a CRED form that allows you to modify the posts that can be favorited. Remove all the content from the CRED form and replace it with the following code:
Problem: I have added all the WooCommerce billing fields to Types control, and I would like to use CRED to capture that information when a new User is created. I am unable to use a select type field for country and state.
Solution: It's not currently possible to modify the field type when you move a field into Types control. You would be required to use the correct two-letter abbreviations for Country and State as defined by WooCommerce. If you want to create custom select fields, you can use the cred_save_data hook to capture the selected values and store them in the billing fields.
Problem: I have a 3-level custom post type relationship hierarchy - grandparent > parent > child. On my single grandparent post page, I would like to display a View of child posts, with a custom search filtered by parent. By default, all the children of the current grandparent should be displayed, and the user should be able to select a parent as a filter.
Solution: There are two options: use a URL parameter and a post relationship filter, or use two nested Views.
URL parameter approach: Create a View that shows child posts, filtered by Post Relationship (grandparent > parent). Set the filter query to respond to a URL parameter. Apply this URL parameter to all links to the grandparent single post page: http://yoursite.com/state/washington?wpv-post-relationship-state=57273
Nested View approach: Create a View that shows child posts, filtered by post relationship, where the parent is the current post in the Loop. In the Loop Output, add the information you want to display about each child post. Then, create a View that shows parent posts, where all parents are children of the current grandparent post. Insert the child View into the Loop Output of the parent View.

Problem:
Update the same Custom Field for All posts of a Custom post type with a certain value, when one cred edit post form is submitted from front-end.
Solution:
Please add this code in your theme’s or child theme’s functions.php file. Here I have done it for one Custom Field as example, you can copy the code to update it and add as many fields as you like:
add_action('cred_before_save_data', 'my_before_save_data_action',10,1);
function my_before_save_data_action($form_data)
{
// if a specific form
if ($form_data['id']==3780)
{
if (isset($_POST['_cred_cred_prefix_post_id']))
{
$current_post_id = $_POST['_cred_cred_prefix_post_id']; // post id
$field_old_value = get_post_meta( $current_post_id, 'wpcf-resolved-by', true ); // 'wpcf-resolved-by' Custom Field Slug
$field_new_value = $_POST['wpcf-resolved-by']; // 'wpcf-resolved-by' Custom Field Slug
echo 'Old Value '.$field_old_value ."<br>";
echo 'New Value '.$field_new_value ."<br>";
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'student', // CPT slug
'posts_per_page' => -1, // All Posts
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
// The Loop
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
if( get_the_ID() == $current_post_id ) // Ignore Current Edit post
continue;
$key_1_value = update_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'wpcf-resolved-by', $field_new_value ); // // 'wpcf-resolved-by' Custom Field Slug
endwhile;
endif;
// Reset Post Data
wp_reset_postdata();
} }}
==> Please note the comments in the above code and replace your CRED form ID, Custom field slug, CPT slug, etc where needed.

Problem:
Need to check in which language users viewing my website so I can show them different content in views and content templates. Just need to use a conditional in a content template so if wordpress changes to english then I should show different content to users. Is that possible?
Solution:
In a View or Content Template or Layout template you can detect language something like this:
[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-bloginfo show="language"]' eq 'en-US' )"]
Language is english
[/wpv-conditional]
[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-bloginfo show="language"]' eq 'ar' )"]
Language is Arabic
[/wpv-conditional]
Problem:
When a user is editing his profile (using CRED User Edit form) the Editing date and time field needs to be automatically updated to the current date and time.
Solution:
We can only store current date in the Date field and we can not store current time in the same field. For storing current date and time in user profile, I suggest to use single line text field.
Please add this code in your theme’s or child theme’s functions.php file
