Using Radio Fields Properly

HI there,

Thanks for taking the time to try and help me out. It's greatly appreciated. Unfortunately it is not working. Itried this:

if ( ! function_exists('totalpress_build_content_page_entry_header')) :
	function totalpress_build_content_page_entry_header() { ?>

		<?php $option = rwmb_meta('tp-primo-featured-image-options');
		if ( $option || 'show_above_title' == $option ) {
		    do_action('totalpress_featured_image_single');
		} ?>

		<header class="entry-header">	
			<?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID,'totalpress_page_options_hide_title',true)) {
		   		the_title('<h1 class="entry-title hide" itemprop="headline">','</h1>');
			  } else {
		   		the_title('<h1 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline">','</h1>');
			  } ?>
		</header><!-- .entry-header -->

		<?php $option = rwmb_meta('tp-primo-featured-image-options');
		if ( ! $option || 'show_below_title' == $option ) {
		    do_action('totalpress_featured_image_single');
		} ?>
		
	<?php
	}
	add_action('totalpress_content_page_entry_header','totalpress_build_content_page_entry_header');
endif;

You can see where I added the code you referenced above, but it is not working. ANy idea what I am doing wrong? I am not getting any errors or warnings, so I don't know what it could be.

Thanks again for the help. It's greatly appreciated.

OK I just re-read what i posted and your code does work perfectly. I just realized that I asked the wrong question.

I should have asked how do I display the featured image above the header when someone selects "show_above_title" etc. Or how do I display ALL of the options if one is selected like this:

if 'show_below_title' show this
if 'show_above_title' show this
if 'page_header_contained' show this
if 'page_header_contained_title_overlay' show this
if 'page_header_contained_title_overlay_parallax' show this
if 'page_header_full_width' show this
if 'page_header_full_width_title_overlay' show this
if 'page_header_full_width_title_overlay_parallax' show this

In other words how do I use/display the information when someone selects one of the options, This is what is confusing me. This is what I am looking for. I am just trying to understand.

Thank you.

Hi there,

Thanks for the suggestion, however I do not think that will work.

I am going to try and explain this one more time using a different meta box..

OK, so I have a metabox that I created and here it is:

	function how_do_I_use_radio_buttons_meta_box( $meta_boxes ) {
		$prefix = 'how_to_use_';

		$meta_boxes[] = array(
			'id' => 'how-to-use-radio-buttons',
			'title' => esc_html__('How To Use Radio Fields','text-domain'),
			'post_types' => array('post','page'),
			'context' => 'side',
			'priority' => 'default',
			'autosave' => true,
			'fields' => array(
				array(
					'id' => $prefix . 'radio_buttons',
					'type' => 'radio',
					'placeholder' => 'boogie',
					'options' => array(
						'button_one_selected' => 'Radio Button One',
						'button_two_selected' => 'Radio Button Two',
						'button_three_selected' => 'Radio Button Three',
						'button_four_selected' => 'Radio Button Four',
						'button_five_selected' => 'Radio Button Five',
					),
					'inline' => false,
				),
			),
		);

		return $meta_boxes;
	}
	add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'how_do_I_use_radio_buttons_meta_box' );

As you can see there are five (5) choices. I have five (5) questions regarding this metabox:

First question: When a user selects Radio Button One, how would I display "I Clicked on Radio Button One" somewhere in the theme?

Second question: When a user selects Radio Button Two, how would I display "I Clicked on Radio Button Two" somewhere in the theme?

Third question: When a user selects Radio Button Three, how would I display the words "I Clicked on Radio Button Three" somewhere in the theme?

Fourth question: When a user selects Radio Button Four, how would I display the words "I Clicked on Radio Button Four" somewhere in the theme?

Fifth question: When a user selects Radio Button Five, how would I display the words "I Clicked on Radio Button Five" somewhere in the theme?

So if you could answer those questions, then maybe I can understand how to use radio fields in meta boxes 😉

I would like to say thank you very much for taking the time and energy to show me how to use a meta box with radio fields. I did however figure it out but it was not with your solution.

Someone on another site who had a tutorial on meta boxes explained what I needed to do precisely and it worked beautifully.

Thanks for all the effort Anh and Truong put in.

Hi there,

Yes I thought the same thing. However I misspoke. When I stated

Someone on another site who had a tutorial on meta boxes explained what I needed to do precisely and it worked beautifully.

I should have said the way they explained it on this other site made the code that Truong Giang gave me understandable.

Truong Giang gave me the following:

$option = rwmb_meta( 'xxxxxx-featured-image-options' );
if ( ! $option || 'show_blow_title' == $option ) {
    // do action.
}

So after I read the article on the other site, I took what Truong wrote and redid it like this:

$featured_image_layout = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(),'totalpress_featured_image_layout_options',true);

Then I wrote the code to display what I needed it to like this:

<?php if ($featured_image_layout === 'show_above_title' ): ?>
     <?php do_action('totalpress_featured_image_single'); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

and it worked out beautimously...lol.

So yes you did help but I did not understand at first and only when I understood is when what you gave me helped.

Thanks again for everything.
