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.
Problem: I would like to be able to reveal intermediary post types in the main wp-admin menu, and allow them to be queried in Views. The intermediary post types are currently hidden, because I set them up as hidden when I created the Relationship.
Solution: Edit the intermediary post type and mark the post type status "Published" to expose it to wp-admin and Views queries. Change the post type status back to "Draft" to hide the post type again.
Problem: I would like to loop over repeating fields in a parent post using wpv-for-each.
Solution: You should create a View that shows the parent post, then use wpv-for-each inside the View's Loop Output editor. The wpv-for-each shortcode is not designed to show fields from a parent post.
The problem here is that the user is using the wpv-after-display-post hook in order to do a views counter on his post. This means that the counter should increment each time the post is loaded on the page using views.
The code that the user is using can be seen below.
// Add our callback
// Mind that we set a priority of 2 and we expect 2 arguments
add_action( 'wpv-after-display-post', 'my_count_on_views', 10, 2 );
// Define our callback
function my_count_on_views( $post, $view_id ) {
if ( $view_id == 207615 ) {
// Only do something if the current View is our View, with ID 44
$counter = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'my_counter', true );
$counter = $counter + 1;
update_post_meta( $post->ID, 'my_counter', $counter );
}
}
The user is storing the counter inside a custom field but the field itself is not being updated with the value.
Solution:
The solution is that since you are using a custom field created using Types then you will need to user the wpcf- prefix when you are referencing the field using the wordpress post meta functions.
In this users case he should've retrieve the field like this wpcf-my_counter.
