ParticipantHi Long, yes of course (I deleted the other custom fields in group as was too long for this message to send)
<?php add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'your_prefix_function_name' ); function your_prefix_function_name( $meta_boxes ) { $prefix = ''; $meta_boxes[] = [ 'title' => __( 'Academic: Profile', 'your-text-domain' ), 'id' => 'academic_profile_group', 'type' => 'user', 'fields' => [ [ 'name' => __( 'University', 'your-text-domain' ), 'id' => $prefix . 'academics_university', 'type' => 'post', 'post_type' => ['university'], 'field_type' => 'select_advanced', 'required' => true, 'admin_columns' => [ 'position' => 'after', 'sort' => true, 'searchable' => true, 'filterable' => true, ], 'columns' => 1, ], return $meta_boxes; }ParticipantHello - I just wanted to elaborate a little further. As it is still not working, and I thought it would be easier to give a fuller picture:
'<div>get_the_title( $university );
$academics_university = rwmb_meta( 'academics_university' ); //maybe do I have to write its a custom field here?
$academics_university = get_the_title( $university )</div>'To explain the above: $university is my custom post type. $academics_university is a custom relational post field saved to the user. I created one relationship between user and university too. It works on the backend.
But I am trying to get the $university to show next to the author of a different cpt ($research). The author creates these posts and these posts are also connected to the user and to the university cpt. I believe I need to use the author meta option (on elementor pro template) with the meta key 'academics_university' - as the related post is saved to the user.
Right now, the post ID shows. But I cannot get the university to show and link to the selected $university.
I would really appreciate your advice how to do this! I am not a developer in any way (you can probably tell)
ParticipantFor example, would I write: get_the_title('university' $post) in the author meta option ?
ParticipantThanks - and do I add into the php code - or do I need to include into the shortcode on my template. Sorry - not sure where to add it!
