Hello to all

i would like to create conditional fields for tags
Problem is that i don’t need them all

i want three dropdown fields for example which should be:
Page 1
Page 2
Page 3

with few tag inside each
Page 1 has tags: custom1 custom2
Page 2 has tags: custom3 custom4
Page 3 has tags: custom5 custom6

I hope someone will point me in right direction how is the best way to do this correctly

Regards!

Hi @dnikola

I’m afraid I don’t understand your query. Could you please explain it in more details and share some screenshots of the current state? Also, could you please let me know the example of your goal?

Thanks 🙂

Hi thanks for your replay.

Actually i have some pages and and position on them, in which are visible post taged with specific tags

i want to enable users metabox in which they will have option to check tag and with that tag they will be able to position post on that position.

Since they have 5-6 pages with few tags for each i would like to make them drop down menu for pages PAGE 1 / PAGE 2 and etc
when is selected PAGE1 in check box area will be shown TAG 1 TAG 2 and etc
when is selected PAGE2 in check box area will be shown TAG 5 TAG 10 and etc
end for every page different tag

I must say i would like to keep also current meta tag box

Thanks!

Hi @dnikola

If I get it correctly, I’m afraid you need advanced JavaScript code to do that. There’s an old tutorial that discusses this topic, but I’m not sure if it is still working or not. You can check it out here: https://www.bobz.co/dynamically-populate-select-fields-choice-in-advanced-custom-fields/.

I hope this helps 🙂
