Meta Box

Hi Nick,

Please take a look at my screen record https://www.loom.com/share/38b868128794408cad69b6b69baee3f1.

I've created two post types Ingredient and Recipe then show the relationship meta box on the front end with Frontend Submission.

Hi Sinusite,

Please add the setting 'add_new' => true to the field settings to create a new term when submitting the post. It looks like this https://share.getcloudapp.com/yAuYdB07.

Hi Brandon,

The field taxonomy get the taxonomy by the function get_terms of WordPress. Since version 5.2, Meta Box uses Ajax to increase the performance for the field select_advanced but too many terms might slow down the field query.

You can try to limit the number of terms display to improve the loading time, please follow this documentation https://docs.metabox.io/fields/taxonomy/#limit-the-number-of-terms-for-pagination.

Hi Tobias,

Each relationship meta box has an ID: {$relationship_id}_relationships_from and {$relationship_id}_relationships_to. You can include these IDs in the form shortcode to show it on the front end.

Hi,

Thank you for pointing this out, I'm going to check it and let you know later.

Hi,

You can enqueue the select2 library then apply the function select2() to the selector with some Javascript code.

function enqueue_select2_jquery() {
    wp_register_style( 'select2css', 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/3.4.8/select2.css', false, '1.0', 'all' );
    wp_register_script( 'select2', 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/3.4.8/select2.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0', true );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'select2css' );
    wp_enqueue_script( 'select2' );
}
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_select2_jquery' );

add_action( 'admin_footer', function() {
    ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
            $('#field_id').select2();
        });
    </script>
    <?php
} );

Follow this topic for more information https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48879027/how-to-add-select2-js-in-wordpress-admin-side-theme-options.

And please notice, the plugin Meta Box also enqueues the library select2 when display some fields select (multiple => true), select_advanced ... so be careful when loading another select2 Javascript file might happen a conflict.

Hi Nick,

I think you need three relationships:
- Activity to Contact
- Activity to Company
- Company to Contact

So when you edit a post type, you can choose 2 other post types as the relation.

Hi Anson,

You should check the meta value of a post inside the loop because the archive page is a list of posts. The right code would be

{% for post in query.posts %}
    {% if(post.countryisocode == 'vn') %}
        {{ post.title }}
    {% endif %}
{% endfor %}
