    Hi,

    I am creating a plugin for a client who uses WCK. I need to fetch all possible options for a select field he created with the WCK Custom Field Creator.

    Do you have a helper function that I can use for that? Where are these stored in the database?

    Thank you!

    Hi @d555555,

    The custom field data is stored as a custom post type and associated meta-data. You can use this code to export all custom fields data you have defined inside WCK:

    $all_custom_fields = get_posts( "post_type=wck-meta-box&posts_per_page=-1" );
			foreach( $all_custom_fields as $key => $value ) {
                # the $key is the post object with the metabox data
				$all_custom_fields[$key]->postmeta = get_post_custom( $value->ID );
			}

    This will give you everything you have defined inside Custom Fields Creator. Do a var_dump($all_custom_fields) to see the exact data structure or inspect the array with a debugger.

    Best regards,
