[Plugin: Developer's Custom Fields] Query Custom Post Type

  • Hi there, thanks for the great plugin first of all!

    I’m trying to pull in a list of posts for a custom post type and I don’t get anything in my select field. Here’s my code:

    function register_user_fields() {
	slt_cf_register_box( array(
		'type'		=> 'user',
		'title'		=> 'Member Profile Page',
		'id'		=> 'profile-page-options',
		'context'	=> 'normal',
		'priority'	=> 'high',
		'fields'	=> array(
			array(
				'name'			=> 'profile-page',
				'label'			=> 'Profile Page',
				'type'			=> 'select',
				'scope'			=> array( 'administrator', 'editor' ),
				'capabilities'	=> array( 'edit_posts' )
			)
		),
		'options_type' => 'posts',
		'options_query' => array(
			'posts_per_page' => -1,
			'post_type' => 'member'
		)
	));
}
add_action('init','register_user_fields');

    I’ve got a bunch of members added so there are posts there. Am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks,
    Jonah

    Hi Jonah, what you need to do is put the options_type and options_query parameters inside the array for the profile-page field where they belong! ??

    A “box” isn’t really a good term for a group of fields on a user screen, but the plugin started life just handling post meta boxes. But still, when you register a box, it’s a group of fields, and each field’s parameters need to be in its array.

    Hey Steve, thanks for the reply, that makes sense and it now works perfectly!
