hi
i have a custom post type “professor” and a relationship field ( refer to “person” custom post type ) with name of “persona” but this code did not work
add_filter('acf/validate_value/name=persona', 'require_unique', 10, 4);
function require_unique($valid, $value, $field, $input) {
if (!$valid) {
return $valid;
}
// get the post id
// using field key of post id field
// query existing posts for matching value
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'professor',
'posts_per_page' => 1, // only need to see if there is 1
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'persona',
'value' => $value
)
)
);
$query = new WP_Query($args);
if (count($query->posts)){
$valid = 'This Value is not Unique';
}
return $valid;
}
