Calculation of multiple courses

  • So I love what you have done with this plugin.
    I just purchased the pro version.
    Is it possible to run multiple course IDs to get a calculation?
    for example:

    echo do_shortcode('[easydash_filtered type="box" id="17510, 17639"]');

    This seem as it is possible to do with the default [easydash] shortcode to add a parameter ids="Array(course_ids)"… And just add the param to the get_posts or WP_query of Post__in = $ids.

    Is this possible?

    Reason why this is important. I want Editors role (Instructors) to beable to see reports on just the courses their have posted.

    You know Post__in might not be the best reference…but:
    'author__in' => array(1,2,3) // or 'current' for current user

    So I was thinking as a quick and dirty solution you can add a new "author_ids" atts to the includes\shortcode.php (PRO) which is for global, not filtered, where a user can enter a string of ids of authors OR just ‘current’. Then make that variable GLOBAL like:

       global $tred_author_data_ids;
   $tred_author_data_ids = $edfl_widget_atts['author_ids'];

    Next go into includes\functions.php (FREE version) and add:

    // get the value of the global atts
global $tred_author_data_ids;

if($tred_author_data_ids):

if($tred_author_data_ids == 'current'):
  $author_ids = get_current_user_id();
else:
  $author_ids = $tred_author_data_ids;
endif;

//Add this to ALL args in functions.php
$args['author__in']  =  array($author_ids);

endif;

    Let me understand: do you want to have stats added up for some courses?

    Yes, ??

    Based on the authors of the courses.
