Hi,
I’m using conditional statement for my checkbox field as per the documentation:
<?php
$llbstones = get_field( 'stonename' );
if( $llbstones && in_array('Black Onyx', $llbstones) ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[su_lightbox type="inline" src="#content-bk-onyx" class="llb-stone-popup"]Black Onyx[/su_lightbox]' );
};
if( $llbstones && in_array('Blue Topaz', $llbstones) ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[su_lightbox type="inline" src="#content-blu-topaz" class="llb-stone-popup"]Blue Topaz[/su_lightbox]' );
};
?>
It’s working in the staging site, but it’s not working when I copied everything to the live site. Here’s the warning I got:
in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given
and when I enable debug, I got this notice:
Undefined index: multiple in /public_html/shop/wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/includes/fields/class-acf-field-select.php
I tried changing the code to:
<?php
if( get_field('stonename') )
{
if( in_array( 'Black Onyx', get_field('stonename') ) ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[su_lightbox type="inline" src="#content-bk-onyx" class="llb-stone-popup"]Black Onyx[/su_lightbox]' );
}
if( in_array( 'Blue Topaz', get_field('stonename') ) ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[su_lightbox type="inline" src="#content-blu-topaz" class="llb-stone-popup"]Blue Topaz[/su_lightbox]' );
}
}
?>
As it solves the issue in https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/conditional-statement-problem-expects-parameter/
But it’s not working for me and still shows the same error.
Running var_dump gives me this result:
string(10) "Black Onyx"
Even if I check all checkboxes, the var_dump result stays the same.
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance.
I believe I see a similar issue. In my setup the checkbox is part of a repeater. The value stored in the database is clearly an array, but it is returned as string. My users can select one or more items, and I implode the returned array, to generate a set of classes.
Relevant snippet:
$categories = get_sub_field('category'); //checkbox returning value
var_dump($categories);
$category_list = $categories ? implode(' ', $categories) : '';
Stored in database: a:1:{i:0;s:10:"cat-global";}
Debug on my staging site: string(10) "cat-global"
Return output is set to ‘Value’, documentation states array is returned.
Strangly enough, also for me it seems to work on my local development environment as with debug it returns: array(1) { [0]=> string(10) "cat-global" }
Just checking if we have something in common: my prod/staging are on WPEngine.
By the way I can make my code work by switching the output to ‘Both (Array)’, and then using the first returned item. Just wondering what happened as my code has been running for a few years.
