Problem: I would like to filter a WP Archive using the post expiration timestamp from Forms, i.e. the _cred_post_expiration_time field.
Solution: Use the archive's Query Filter editor to add a query filter based on that hidden custom field value. First, you must expose the hidden _cred_post_expiration_time field to Views filters. Go to Toolset > Settings > Front-end Content, and add _cred_post_expiration_time in the "Hidden custom fields" section. Then in the WordPress Archive, add a Query Filter based on the _cred_post_expiration_time custom field. Configure the filter so that it finds results with _cred_post_expiration_time greater than or equal to NOW, or TODAY, as shown in the screenshot here. You may have better results with TODAY depending on your server's timezone settings, but you can try NOW or TODAY in the filter configurations to see which one gives the best results.
Problem: I would like to filter the parent post options in a Form that creates child posts. I would like to add custom code that filters the options based on their other post relationships.
Solution: Use the pre_get_posts filter to filter the parent post options in the parent post field. See the following example code:
/**
* Filter the Children parent field in the connect-toy-to-childmale Relationship Form
* to only show Children connected to Gender Male.
* https://toolset.com/forums/topic/filtering-posts-for-relationship-connection-in-a-submission-form/
*/
function filter_parent_posts( $query ){
$parent_post_type = "child"; // slug of parent post type
$child_post_type = "toy"; // slug of child post type
$rel_slug = "gender-child"; // slug of gender-child post relationship
$male_post_id = 9; // ID of Gender Male post
$rel_form_id = 26; // ID of the relationship form
// relationship form is on Toy single posts, queries parent_post_type posts
if ( ( defined('DOING_AJAX') && DOING_AJAX )
&& isset($query->query['post_type'][0])
&& $query->query['post_type'][0] == $parent_post_type
&& isset($_REQUEST['action'])
&& $_REQUEST['action'] == 'cred_association_form_ajax_role_find'
&& isset($_REQUEST['form_id'])
&& $_REQUEST['form_id'] == $rel_form_id
) {
// querying by gender post, which is parent in gender-child
$males = toolset_get_related_posts( $male_post_id, $rel_slug, array(
'query_by_role' => 'parent',
'limit' => 1000,
'offset' => 0,
'args' => array(),
'return' => 'post_id',
'role_to_return' => 'child'
));
$query->set( 'post__in', $males );
}
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'filter_parent_posts', 101, 1 );
