Problem: I have an automatic email notification set up in a post Form. I would like to send an email to the author of the post where the Form is being displayed.
Solution: Use a generic field in the Form to store the ID of the author of the current post, then you can select that generic field in the notification recipients details.
Problem:
The user would like to restrict all users from accessing the wp-admin area.
Solution:
Toolset does not offer any way of restricting the backend for the site users. You can still achieve that using a 3rd party plugin or using custom code. Check the following links:
Problem:
Can Toolset be used to make conventional contact forms?
Solution:
You can easily create "Contact Us" form using Toolset.
To create a content Us form using Toolset, you should create a post type "Contacts" as well as add the custom fields as required to display with the Contacts post type and then create a post for to add new post for that "Contacts" post type.
Problem:
The user would like to disable the title that appears when we hover on a map marker.
Solution:
If we don't set a title for the marker, it will take the post's title by default. There is no way from the user interface to disable this feature. But we can remove the title using custom Javascript code, such as:
Problem: I would like to display the description field from my taxonomy next to the taxonomy input in a Form.
Solution: The wpv-taxonomy-archive shortcode can be used in a taxonomy archive, but a custom shortcode is required to display a taxonomy description outside of a taxonomy archive. Example:
// Get the description of any taxonomy, for use anywhere
// ex: [tssupp-get-tax-desc taxonomy="your-tax-slug"][/tssupp-get-tax-desc]
// https://toolset.com/forums/topic/front-end-form-taxonomy-descriptions/
add_shortcode( 'tssupp-get-tax-desc', 'tssupp_get_tax_desc');
function tssupp_get_tax_desc($atts)
{
$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
'taxonomy' => ''
), $atts );
$taxes = get_option('wpcf-custom-taxonomies');
$description = isset($taxes[$atts['taxonomy']]['description']) ? $taxes[$atts['taxonomy']]['description'] : '';
return $description;
}
Problem: I would like to use a conditional group in my post Form. The conditional should test whether or not a specific term from a custom taxonomy is selected, but I cannot figure out how to set up this conditional.
Solution: Manually edit the conditions for this conditional group and use the following syntax in the editor:
($(tax-slug) eq 'Term name')
Replace tax-slug with the slug of the custom taxonomy, and replace Term name with the name of the term to test.
