Problem:
When using the cred_notification_recipients hook to send a notification to the author of a parent post when a child post is created, what is the correct way to get the ID of the parent post?
Solution:
This changed with Types 3, which no longer stores the parent post ID on the child post.
You would get the parent post ID using the toolset_get_related_post function of the new API.
Problem: I have a custom search View that includes two taxonomy filter controls and a text search field. Now, the View shows all results at first. I would like to hide all the results until the user selects at least one taxonomy or searches for some specific text. Here are the current filter controls:
Solution: Ensure your View's Filter Query section is configured appropriately for this search. It should include both taxonomy filters, as well as a text search filter. See the screenshot attached for the required configurations.
Next, add the following code to functions.php:
add_filter( 'wpv_filter_query', 'drop_empty_search_query', 10, 3 );
function drop_empty_search_query( $query_args, $view_settings, $view_id ) {
$ids = array(1, 2, 3);
if (in_array($view_id, $ids)){
if (
// taxonomy filter needs to check for not '0' as well as not empty
( isset($_GET['wpv-listing-category']) && $_GET['wpv-listing-category'] != '0' )
||
// taxonomy filter needs to check for not '0' as well as not empty
( isset($_GET['wpv-location']) && $_GET['wpv-location'] != '0' )
||
// text search only needs to check for not empty
( isset($_GET['wpv_post_search']) && $_GET['wpv_post_search'] != '' )
) {
} else {
$query_args['post__in'] = array(0);
}
}
return $query_args;
}
Replace 1, 2, 3 with your View ID or a comma-separated list of multiple View IDs where you want to apply this custom query filter.
