Hi,

On PHP side, with select field options, using the values, what is the best way to get the Display text? or alternatively, where is the related display text for the raw value stored?

Cheers

Hi there,

To get the values of a select field please us this code:

types_render_field("field-slug", array("output"=>"raw"));

And for the label of the values use this code:

types_render_field("field-slug", array("output"=>"html"));

Change "field-slug" with the slug of your custom field.

Thank you.

Hi Chris,

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is for the actual field where as I'm referring to the "Display text" of the "content field type" value in the related postmeta field.?

Hi there,

If I'm following correctly then you will like to display the label (Display Text) of the select tag of a particular post within another post correct?

If my assumptions are correct then you can achieve this by using this shortcode:

[types field="email" id="7" show_name="true"][/types]

Replace the field name with the slug of the field that you want to display.
The ID should be the id of the post that you want to display the value of the field.

In PHP to run the shortcode you can use:

Thank you.

Thanks, the following worked.

$event_type = do_shortcode( '[types field="event-type" id="' . $id . '" show_name="false"][/types]' );
