Hi,
how is the correct syntax for the query args of the taxonomy field?

I try to exclude the term id 9.
I did it in different ways, but don't get it.
Kind regards,
Ole
Hello,
You should remove the single quote in the key box and put 9 in the value box, like this https://imgur.com/SHg0Rxv
Refer to the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#custom-settings
Thanks! It works.
Quick additional question.
Is there a way a filter or somthing to override this qyery arg?
I want to exclude the term only on frontent, but not on backend.
Kind regards,
Ole
Hello,
You can use the filter hook rwmb_normalize_{$field_id}_field
to override the field settings. Please follow the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/filters/rwmb-normalize-field/
Hi Peter,
I'm not sooo goog in developing, so maybe you can assist.
I tried it this way, but it doesn't works:
add_filter( 'rwmb_normalize_kind_of_stuff_field', function( $field ) {
$field['query_args'] => [];
return $field;
});
Hello,
You can use the function is_admin() to check if it is the admin area and remove the query args. For example:
add_filter( 'rwmb_normalize_kind_of_stuff_field', function( $field ) {
if( is_admin() ) {
$field['query_args'] => [];
}
return $field;
});
Hi Peter,
The condition is_adminbis clear.
But the whole function does not work for me.
Kind regards,
Ole
I'm looking for a way to exclude one term id in this taxonomy field on MB Frontend Submission form, but have alle term id's in wp backend.
I doubt if this is the right way.
Peter, can you please assist for a right way?
Kind regards,
Ole
Hello,
It is a little bit difficult to remove the query args in the admin area if you use the field type select_advanced
. Please use this code to do that:
add_filter( 'rwmb_normalize_taxonomy_hke7085j6ft_field', function( $field ) {
if( is_admin() ) {
unset( $field['query_args']['exclude'] );
unset( $field['js_options']['ajax_data']['field']['query_args']['exclude'] );
}
return $field;
} );
Hello Peter,
thank you very much!
It works!
