I have 3 custom fields: wpcf-start-date, wpcf-end-date and wpcf-total-days. When a form is submitted I'd like wpcf-total-days to be populated with the number of days from the other two fields.
I am building a community website. I am selling individual posts for business listings, job posts, events listings, etc. Each post type is setup as a Types custom post type. Site members (subscribers) create these listings via Toolset Forms on the frontend and they complete their purchase with Woocommerce Subscriptions. Everything is working as planned except for one important factor... the Posts and the WooCommerce Orders/Subscriptions do not appear to be connected to each other.
Solution:
It is possible with some custom codes, see the solution here:
I have two post types: Studios and Artists. A Studio can have many Artists, and an Artist can belong to many Studios (set up as a many-many relationship). I have Toolset forms to create each post type.
However, I cannot work out how to add a field to the Artist CRED form that automatically creates a link to the current Studio - I want to use the Artist Toolset form in the content template for a Studio.

It is possible with some custom codes, for example:
Problem:
How to set default distance and unit using toolset maps distance filter
Solution:
You can use attribute default_distance and default_unit with maps distance filter shortcode [wpv-control-distance] to set default default distance and unit.
For example:
[wpv-control-distance default_distance="20" default_unit="mi" compare_field="town" distance_center_url_param="toolset_maps_distance_center" distance_radius_url_param="toolset_maps_distance_radius" distance_unit_url_param="toolset_maps_distance_unit" inputs_placeholder="Within 20 miles of %%CENTER%%"]
Solution:
To display conditional content based on the child posts with pre-Types 3.X.X, you need to use custom shortcode with [wpv-conditional] shortcode.
Problem: I would like to know how to loop over repeating field groups with PHP.
Solution:
Use the toolset_get_related_posts API. Each RFG can be accessed as a child, where the post is the parent and the relationship slug is the RFG slug.
$parent = get_post( 12345 ); // the parent post that holds the RFG
$sezioni = toolset_get_related_posts(
$parent, // the parent post
'sezioni', // the RFG slug
'parent', // the post role in this relationship is 'parent'
1000000, // the maximum number of results
0, // the offset
array(), // additional query arguments
'post_id', // return format
'child', // role to return
);
// $sezioni is now an array of post IDs for each RFG
$sez1 = get_post( $sezioni[0] ); // example, get the first Sezioni RFG ID
$pulsanti = toolset_get_related_posts(
$sez1, // the parent RFG
'pulsanti', // the RFG slug
'parent', // the sezioni role in this relationship is 'parent'
1000000, // the maximum number of results
0, // the offset
array(), // additional query arguments
'post_id', // return format
'child', // role to return
);
// $pulsanti is now an array of post IDs for each RFG in $sez1
Problem: I would like to allow my Users to "favorite" posts.
Solution:
- Add a number custom field to the User's profile. This number will store the favorite post ID.
- Create a Form that edits the current User's profile
- Remove the number field from the Form and replace it with a generic select field that stores the value of the favorite post ID:
- Replace 12345, 67890 with the View's ID, or a comma-separated list of View IDs if you want to apply this filter to more than one View.
- Add the following custom code that will capture the selected post ID and save it in the User's favorite post field:
Problem: I have a Form that triggers an email notification. I send the notification to an email address that is stored in a parent post's custom field, by using the CRED API cred_notification_recipients. Since updating to Types 3.0, the email notifications are not sent as expected.
Solution: Update the code to work with the new Post Relationships API, and ensure the child post status is not "private".
Editing Existing Connections between Related Posts and using the Albums/Songs (Beatles - Revolver) examples with the intermediary post type tracks.
if I set up a view based on the intermediary post type tracks I can order by the track number but when I add the relationship form for editing the intermediary field track number I get the following message:
The items in the conection are not actually connected
Solution:
You need to edit the post relationship(between "Albums" and "Songs") within a "Songs" post.
