I am not sure if this is a bug or wrong understanding of how fields should work.
In my case, I want to provide a way to include articles (post_type=’post’) and case studies (custom post_type=’case_study’) to specific pages of the website. So we can output these posts as “Related Items” at the bottom of the page.
I covered the field setup and all the logic by using “Post Object” field that should support 2 post_types = post & case_study.
The field appears in the wp editor but it suggests only articles of “post” type. “case_study” options are not there.
I tried to replace the “post” type with another custom post type and everything works properly. However when I bring “post” type back to the settings, it doesn’t work.
The issue is related to “Post Object” and “Relationship” fields. They simply don’t show posts of “case_study” when “post” is mentioned.
Here is how the field looks like:
array(
‘key’ => ‘field_646a1e151cb01’,
‘label’ => ‘case_studiess’,
‘name’ => ‘case_studiess’,
‘aria-label’ => ”,
‘type’ => ‘post_object’,
‘instructions’ => ”,
‘required’ => 0,
‘conditional_logic’ => 0,
‘wrapper’ => array(
‘width’ => ”,
‘class’ => ”,
‘id’ => ”,
),
‘post_type’ => array(
0 => ‘post’, // The problematic part is here. If I replace “post” with any other custom post type, everything works properly.
1 => ‘case_study’,
),
‘post_status’ => ”,
‘taxonomy’ => ”,
‘return_format’ => ‘id’,
‘multiple’ => 1,
‘translations’ => ‘copy_once’,
‘allow_null’ => 0,
‘ui’ => 1,
),
Any ideas what’s going wrong here?
