Hi John, thank you for your advice.
For some reason filter is not working when it’s added to the page. Definitely works when add_action is being added to the functions.php, but it’s preventing me from seeing any drafts on the site.
<?php
if (get_field('alternative_method')):
// add filter to only get published posts
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'acf_field_only_published_posts', 10, 1);
// get field
$alt_posts = get_field('alternative_method');
// remove the filter so it does not affect other queries
remove_filter('pre_get_posts', 'acf_field_only_published_posts');
if (!empty($alt_posts)): ?>
<section id="alt-method">
<div class="text full">
<h2>Alternative methods</h2>
</div>
<div class="recipes-list item-listing">
<?php foreach( $alt_posts as $post ):
setup_postdata($post); ?>
<?php if ( get_post_status() == 'publish' ) :?>
<?php get_template_part( 'template-parts/content-recipe-card', get_post_format() ); ?>
<?php endif;?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php
wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
</div>
</section>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
Update this was sorted with 4. Sub custom field values
I’ve changed the REPEATER name to ‘quote’
// filter
function my_posts_where( $where ) {
$where = str_replace("meta_key = 'quote_$", "meta_key LIKE 'quote_%", $where);
return $where;
}
add_filter('posts_where', 'my_posts_where');
// vars
$person = '"' . get_the_ID() . '"';
$personID = get_the_ID();
$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
// args
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 10,
'paged' => $paged,
'order' => 'DESC',
'post_type' => 'recipes',
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'quote_$_person',
'value' => '"' . get_the_ID() . '"',
'compare' => 'LIKE',
)
)
);
An update, I’m trying to use an example from here 4. Sub custom field values
I’ve updated REPEATER name to ‘quote’
<?php
// filter
function my_posts_where( $where ) {
$where = str_replace("meta_key = 'quote_$", "meta_key LIKE 'quote_%", $where);
return $where;
}
add_filter('posts_where', 'my_posts_where');
// vars
$person = '"' . get_the_ID() . '"';
$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
// args
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 10,
'paged' => $paged,
'order' => 'DESC',
'post_type' => 'recipes',
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'quote_$_person',
'value' => '"' . get_the_ID() . '"',
'compare' => 'LIKE',
)
)
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if($the_query->have_posts() ) :
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
$the_query->the_post();
get_template_part( 'template-parts/content-recipe-card', get_post_format() );
endwhile;
else: ;
endif;
?>
The snippet above is the relationship that sits under repeater. My current structure looks like this ingredients=repeater/items=repeater/ingredient_name=relationship. Ingredient_name has a field “link” this is what I want to store and use outside the loop as it will need to turn into Amazon asin link.
Hi John, that makes sense! Unfortunately, for myself, ingredients relationship is a subfield and listed in both repeater and flexible content. I’ve attached design just to illustrate how it’s done on a recipe page. Thanks for pointing me the bidirectional way, have you seen anyone achieving similar having relationship as a subfield?
