Export and page localization

When i generate export php code, all generated group has own location. For example when i create group for custom post type “games” i get code:

‘location’ => array (
array (
array (
‘param’ => ‘post_type’,
‘operator’ => ‘==’,
‘value’ => ‘games’,
),
),
),

And this is very nice, because i can create this custom post with php code.

Now i create custom group for specyfic page and after export i get:

‘location’ => array (
array (
array (
‘param’ => ‘page’,
‘operator’ => ‘==’,
‘value’ => 201,
),
),
),

and it’s not nice, because when I programically create pages, i can not be sure that this site gets id = 201.
Maybe code like ‘value’ => get_page_by_path(‘/supauber’)->ID may fix this issue? Hmmm… But admin can change url…
Maybe you can add option for this or something like that?

If you’re creating pages and field groups using code I would suggest that when you create the page in question that you store the post_id of the new page in an option value. Then alter the field group php to use that value for the location rule.

'location' => array (
  array (
    array (
      'param' => 'page',
      'operator' => '==',
      'value' => get_option('my_option_name'),
    ),
  ),
),
