Problem:
A Toolset Form should be visible to guest users.
Solution:
When you have Access enabled, Forms will only be visible to guest users if you explicitly give such permission, by visiting Toolset > Access Control > Toolset Forms.
Problem: I would like to automatically increment a custom field value when I create a new post in my custom post type. The field value should be the highest field value from the other posts, plus one.
Solution:
Add this code to functions.php:
/**
* Add an auto-incrementing ordernummer field to telorder posts
*/
function auto_assign_ids( $post_id, $post, $update ) {
if( $update == false ) {
// Only assign ID to new telorder posts
if ( $post->post_type == 'telorder' ) {
// get the most recent telorder post
$telorder_args = array(
'numberposts' => 1,
'post_type' => 'telorder',
'orderby' => 'post_date',
'order' => 'DESC'
);
$telorders = get_posts( $telorder_args );
// get the project_id of the prior post
$last_id = isset($telorders[0]) ? get_post_meta( $telorders[0]->ID, 'wpcf-ordernummer', true ) : 0;
// increment
$last_id++;
// set the project_id of the current post
update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-ordernummer', $last_id );
}
}
}
add_action( 'save_post', 'auto_assign_ids', 100, 3 );

Solution:
You can use standard wordpress hook "save_post" to build such solution and add that hook to your current theme's functions.php file.
Problem: I am seeing an error message in all of my Toolset sites: "You must have a valid subscription in order to get upgrades or support for this plugin. Purchase a subscription or enter an existing site key."
Solution: Delete and reinstall Types, then click "Check for updates" in the plugin Commercial tab.
Problem:
In my View's Loop I have a sortable table with Custom Fields.
Some Custom Fields, when sorted, work properly, means only the existing entries show.
Some other fields thou, even show if they are empty, if you sort the table by them.
Solution:
The field is not empty, this is the only explanation.
Usually, this can happen due to a database corruption or someone added empty spaces to the fields and saved them.
Please try to re-save all affected posts and make sure no value is in the empty fields.
For this, first add a value, save it, then remove the value and re-save it.
This is an exception, usually visual empty field are really empty, but it can happen that the fields hold not visible values.
I have a relation with post author and a custom field set. I can make every field required (I do not need to, but I can), except for the post author field.
As the client is testing it now an empty line appeared in the dropdown. I have no direct contact with the client so I can not ask him what happened, but I think making the field required could avoid empty lines in the future. Maybe I am thinking wrong, but now you can make a new order without selecting the author.
Solution:
How do you setup the post author field? is it a CRED generic field?
If it is, you can add argument "required" in the shortcode [cred_generic_field], for example:
