Make Category required field

  • We do have a problem with users adding advers without selecting a category. As we are showing all categories in an overview there is currently no way to findt adverts without any category.

    So we would like to set category as a required field when adding a new advert. Looked through support forum but could not find any related answer.

    If this is not working, how could we manage to add a “show all adverts without any category” element?

    Hi,
    you can make the Category field required either using the Custom Fields extension or by adding the code below in your theme functions.php file (or even better by creating a new blank WP plugin and adding the code there).

    
add_filter( "adverts_form_load", function( $form ) {
    if( $form["name"] != "advert" ) {
        return $form;	
    }
    foreach( $form["field"] as $k => $f ) {
        if( $f["name"] == "advert_category" ) {
            $form["field"][$k]["validator"][] = array( "name" => "is_required" );
        }
    }
    return $form;
} );
