Meta Box

Hello, I exported the field groups and cloned the installation freshly and then reimported the fields and for now it works fine again. I don't know the reason, because the other installation was also pretty fresh. ...Since working locally I experience more problems in general with local wp..
Thanks for your help anyway.

Hi,

I'll send you the export of the field group by email.
This group contained only html fields.

Shorty I had the same issue on a fresh wp install where I created a field group for a setting page with around 15 fields. Then all of a sudden they where gone. Can't remember if I was changing the name of the group but it's likely I did. All of the fields had NO ENTRIES, and slowly slowy I think this problem occurs more likely when there is no data or just html fields..

I'll let you know if the problem occurs again in future.

It works and fixed also another bug.
Thanks a lot.

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
