Meta Box

Hi,

It is possible. But you need to have a basic knowledge about PHP code and WordPress template to get the right way. Run a PHP function in View: https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-views/#running-php-functions

The code to show filter in the View is

<div class="filter-custom-taxonomy">
    {% set terms = mb.get_terms( { taxonomy: 'custom-taxonomy' } ) %}
    {% for term in terms %}
    <a href="?getby=cat&cat={{ mb.esc_attr( term.slug ) }}">
        {{ mb.esc_html( term.name ) }}
    </a>
    {% endfor %}
</div>

remember to change custom-taxonomy in the filter, the function hooked above to your taxonomy slug. And Type, Location of View set to Post type (Dish) archive.

Hi,

If you want to query posts by date, please use the argument date_query, read more in the documentation https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#date-parameters

And refer to this topic https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/52070/how-to-get-posts-published-between-a-date-and-today

Please note that: never use the PHP function in the View, you can run it via the proxy

{% set my_date = mb.date("Y-m-d") %}

then value: my_date,

Hi Alan,

When creating/updating the post in the backend, you can see some default input boxes such as title, content, featured image, date publish ... In the frontend, we call it post_fields. Please get more details here https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/#reorder-post-fields

Hi,

You can put the code to the template file that shows the single post, contact your theme support to ask for the template file.

If you want to use the View, please follow this documentation to know how to run PHP functions in View https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-views/#running-php-functions

Hi,

Here is the filter code that you need to convert and add to the View

<div class="filter-custom-taxonomy">
    <?php
    $terms = get_terms( 'publisher' );
    foreach ( $terms as $term ) : ?>
    <a href="?getby=cat&cat=<?php echo esc_attr( $term->slug ); ?>">
            <?php echo esc_html( $term->name ); ?>
    </a>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
</div>

The function to handle the filter should be added to the file functions.php in the theme/child theme folder or Code Snippets plugin

function justread_filter_archive( $query ) {
    ...
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'justread_filter_archive');

Hi,

It's a very complicated group, to show the user info in that group you need more for loops. Each cloneable group will need 2 loops, one for cloneable, one for the subfields. For example, I have a field group

function your_prefix_function_name( $meta_boxes ) {
    $prefix = '';

    $meta_boxes[] = [
        'title'  => __( 'Post Meta', 'your-text-domain' ),
        'id'     => 'post-meta',
        'fields' => [
            [
                'name'   => __( 'Areas', 'your-text-domain' ),
                'id'     => $prefix . 'areas',
                'type'   => 'group',
                'clone'  => true,
                'fields' => [
                    [
                        'name'   => __( 'Zones', 'your-text-domain' ),
                        'id'     => $prefix . 'zones',
                        'type'   => 'group',
                        'clone'  => true,
                        'fields' => [
                            [
                                'name'   => __( 'Guards', 'your-text-domain' ),
                                'id'     => $prefix . 'guards',
                                'type'   => 'group',
                                'clone'  => true,
                                'fields' => [
                                    [
                                        'name'   => __( 'Locations', 'your-text-domain' ),
                                        'id'     => $prefix . 'locations',
                                        'type'   => 'group',
                                        'clone'  => true,
                                        'fields' => [
                                            [
                                                'name'       => __( 'User', 'your-text-domain' ),
                                                'id'         => $prefix . 'user',
                                                'type'       => 'user',
                                                'field_type' => 'select_advanced',
                                                'multiple'        => true
                                            ],
                                        ],
                                    ],
                                ],
                            ],
                        ],
                    ],
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ];

    return $meta_boxes;
}

the view code to get user info is

{% for clone_areas in post.areas %}
    {% for clone_zones in clone_areas %}
        {% for zone in clone_zones %}
            {% for clone_guards in zone %}
                {% for guard in clone_guards %} 
                    {% for clone_locations in guard %}
                        {% for location in clone_locations %}
                            {% for users in location %}
                                {% for user in users %}
                                    {{user.display_name}}       
                                {% endfor %}
                            {% endfor %}
                        {% endfor %}
                    {% endfor %}
                {% endfor %}    
            {% endfor %}    
        {% endfor %}
    {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}

Hope that makes sense.

Hi vubai,

Thank you for your feedback.

Let me explain this case with the datetime field. The datetime field uses our JS library to get the current time of your computer and generate it to the timestamp value then the PHP code helps to save this value to the database.

That means the Unix timestamp saved is the "timezone (UTC) + offset". If you use the function wp_date(), it will display "timezone (UTC) + offset" + offset (timezone in general settings). So, to display the true timezone when using the datetime field and the function wp_date(), you should use this code

echo wp_date( 'F d, Y H:i', $date_time, new DateTimeZone('UTC') );

or use the date() function.
