Hi

I checked the support forum of ACP and found this post
https://www.admincolumns.com/forums/topic/update-term-during-acp-editing-saved-action/

...which finally endet to the same post I already found on github
https://github.com/codepress/admin-columns-hooks/blob/master/acp-editing-saved.php

So at least it makes me more confident this solution will work. Takes a bit time for me to test/implement, ..still at beginner level 🙂

Have a nice day

Hi
Thanks for the snippet. It works now.
But I do not understand why for this custom query in one case I need to use the wp function and in other cases not (eg. post.post_title)? Is there a simple answer?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your hint. Unfortunately this to high for me. I can't see where to change to code to get the term id on backend.

This is my code. I don't know if you can provide the correct snippet.
If not, thanks anyway. I understand.

<?php
add_action( 'rwmb_after_save_post', function( $post_id ) {

$terms = get_the_terms( get_queried_object_id(), 'artists' );
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
    $term_name = rwmb_meta( 'fg_meta_artist_name', ['object_type' => 'term'], $term->term_id );
    $term_name_first = rwmb_meta( 'fg_meta_artist_name_first', ['object_type' => 'term'], $term->term_id );

    $value = $term_name_first;
}
        update_post_meta( $post_id, 'fg_taxo_object_artist_names', $value );
} );
?>

Hello

I was basicly succesfull with your help. One thing is not working though:

When using this code on frontend of the post, it is working fine and showing the first name of the artist (fetched from custom taxonomy field):

<?php
$terms = get_the_terms( get_queried_object_id(), 'artists' );

foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
$term_name = rwmb_meta( 'fg_meta_artist_name', ['object_type' => 'term'], $term->term_id );
$term_name_first = rwmb_meta( 'fg_meta_artist_name_first', ['object_type' => 'term'], $term->term_id );

$value $term_name_first;
echo $value;
}

?>

When trying to fill an empty custom field (text) with the same value, the field it not filled up:

<?php
add_action( 'rwmb_after_save_post', function( $post_id ) {

< code from above (without echo) >

update_post_meta( $post_id, 'fg_taxo_object_artist_names', $value );
} );

?>

Both fields are text fields.
Do you see any reason why this is not working?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards, François

great, I'll try. Thanks a lot !
