I am trying to limit the Post Object selects either by Author or By User Can Edit.
I wish to allow users only to select pages they can edit from Post Object. I currently have this:
function my_post_object_query( $args, $field, $post )
{
// modify the order
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id = $current_user->ID;
$args[‘post_type’]=”franchises”;
$args[‘author’]=$user_id;
return $args;
}
// filter for every field
add_filter(‘acf/fields/post_object/query/name=franchise’, ‘my_post_object_query’, 10, 3);
The Post Type limiter works but not the Post Author.
use author instead of post_author
I originally had author however that still doesn’t work. I have changed it back to author now.
yeah i found =)
post object field uses get_posts for all post types and get_pages for pages
so if you want to filter them both
use
$args['author']=$user_id;
$args['authors']=$user_id;
but if you using custom post type why you didnt set the post type filter in the custom field options?
Perfect thank you, I only put the post type filter in there as well so I could see if the whole thing was working.
excuse me,
I need the same function.
or at least I think it is the same:
I need that in the “post_object” seen in the admin side, you see a list of our posts in a specific custom post, obviously without seeing those of others.
I copied the code and I replaced the custom post with my “franchises” -> “stand”
But by testing with user semplicesi continues to see the full list.
What I’m missing?
did you also changed
// filter for every field
add_filter(‘acf/fields/post_object/query/name=franchise’, ‘my_post_object_query’, 10, 3);
name=franchise with your field slug?
my custom post is : ‘stand’
function my_post_object_query( $args, $field, $post ) {
// modify the order
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id = $current_user->ID;
$args['author']=$user_id;
$args['authors']=$user_id;
$args['post_type']='stand';
return $args;
}
// filter for every field
add_filter('acf/fields/post_object/query/name=stand', 'my_post_object_query', 10, 3);
and what is your posts custom field name?
add_filter(‘acf/fields/post_object/query/name=stand‘) <= not post type name, but ACF custom field name
here’s what I had missed.
Yes, now it works properly!
thanks so much
I was wondering,
you can set the filter applies only to users and not admins or moderators?
I tried to use this code to differentiate between users and admin, but it is as if nothing is filtering.
if ( ! is_admin() ) {
// modify the order
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id = $current_user->ID;
$args['author']=$user_id;
$args['authors']=$user_id;
$args['post_type']='stand';
return $args;
}
else { $args['post_type']='stand'; return $args; }
There is solution?
Thanks
is_admin
Description
This Conditional Tag checks if the Dashboard or the administration panel is attempting to be displayed. It should not be used as a means to verify whether the current user has permission to view the Dashboard or the administration panel (try current_user_can() instead). This is a boolean function that will return true if the URL being accessed is in the admin section, or false for a front-end page.
Usage
<?php is_admin(); ?>
if ( !current_user_can('manage_options')) {
// modify the order
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id = $current_user->ID;
$args['author']=$user_id;
$args['authors']=$user_id;
$args['post_type']='stand';
return $args;
}
else { $args['post_type']='stand'; return $args; }
correct as always,
Thanks!
