Hello i disabled “inline all CSS” and the problem seems to be fixed. is there a way to enable “inline all CSS” without causing this problem?

Repeatable Groups are great but i m facing some difficulties. using cmb2 i managed to create the desired custom meta fields for my user and my custom post type.

using
echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), ‘submitted_note’, true);
i am able to display the value of my custom field on the front-end.

i am straggling though to do this with me repeatable group values.

in my db i have something like this
a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:25:”submitted_hotel_name”;s:14:”hotel one”;s:28:”submitted_hotel_acronym”;s:6:”depone”;s:28:”submitted_hotel_address”;s:4:”fdsd”;s:29:”submitted_hotel_postcode”;s:5:”sdfsd”;s:25:”submitted_hotel_city”;s:6:”sdfsdf”;s:28:”submitted_hotel_country”;s:6:”sdfsdf”;}}

can u give me a quick hint of how to display a single value i.e submitted_hotel_postcode only.

thank u

seems ok after changing the css. thank you michael

hello firebug doesnt give me any erros

hello again

i am trying to work with repeating groups on the frontend but can make it.

i am using your simple examples. first of all i installed cmb2 plugin from wordpress. then i added these lines in my themes functions. The group works fine on the back end. On the frontend everything works ok except the toggle icon. Any suggestions?

you can have a look here (https://www.sight79.net/demosite/sample-page/)

/**
* Get the bootstrap!
*/
if ( file_exists( __DIR__ . ‘/cmb2/init.php’ ) ) {
require_once __DIR__ . ‘/cmb2/init.php’;
} elseif ( file_exists( __DIR__ . ‘/CMB2/init.php’ ) ) {
require_once __DIR__ . ‘/CMB2/init.php’;
}

//CREATE METABOX
add_action( ‘cmb2_init’, ‘cmb2_sample_metaboxes’ );
function cmb2_sample_metaboxes() {
// Start with an underscore to hide fields from custom fields list
$prefix = ‘_yourprefix_’;
$cmb_group = new_cmb2_box( array(
‘id’ => $prefix . ‘metabox’,
‘title’ => __( ‘Repeating Field Group’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘object_types’ => array( ‘page’, ),
) );

// $group_field_id is the field id string, so in this case: $prefix . ‘demo’
$group_field_id = $cmb_group->add_field( array(
‘id’ => $prefix . ‘demo’,
‘type’ => ‘group’,
‘description’ => __( ‘Generates reusable form entries’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘options’ => array(
‘group_title’ => __( ‘Entry {#}’, ‘cmb2’ ), // {#} gets replaced by row number
‘add_button’ => __( ‘Add Another Entry’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘remove_button’ => __( ‘Remove Entry’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘sortable’ => true, // beta
),
) );
// Regular text field
$cmb_group->add_group_field( $group_field_id, array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Test Text’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘desc’ => __( ‘field description (optional)’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘id’ => $prefix . ‘text’,
‘type’ => ‘text’,
‘show_on_cb’ => ‘cmb2_hide_if_no_cats’, // function should return a bool value
// ‘sanitization_cb’ => ‘my_custom_sanitization’, // custom sanitization callback parameter
// ‘escape_cb’ => ‘my_custom_escaping’, // custom escaping callback parameter
// ‘on_front’ => false, // Optionally designate a field to wp-admin only
// ‘repeatable’ => true,
) );
}

//FRONTEND METABOX
add_shortcode( ‘cmb-form’, ‘cmb2_do_frontend_form_shortcode’ );
function cmb2_do_frontend_form_shortcode( $atts = array() ) {
global $post;
if ( ! current_user_can( ‘edit_posts’ ) ) {
return _e( ‘You do not have permissions to edit this post.’, ‘lang_domain’ );
}
if ( ! isset( $atts[‘post_id’] ) ) {
$atts[‘post_id’] = $post->ID;
}
if ( empty( $atts[‘id’] ) ) {
return “Please add a ‘id’ attribute to specify the CMB2 form to display.”;
}

$metabox_id = esc_attr( $atts[‘id’] );
$object_id = absint( $atts[‘post_id’] );
$form = cmb2_get_metabox_form( $metabox_id, $object_id );
return $form;
}

i think i did something wrong with my files. what i am doing is that i created a custom plugin. this has the following structure.
myplugin(folder)
– myplugin.php

should i copy the entire cmb2 forlder in my mplugin folder and then put

if ( file_exists( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/cmb2/init.php’ ) ) {
require_once dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/cmb2/init.php’;
} elseif ( file_exists( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/CMB2/init.php’ ) ) {
require_once dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/CMB2/init.php’;
}
in my php file?

hello there i cant see any errors

my metaboxes include too many fields. by this <?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), ‘submitted_town’, true); ?> i can get the value filed as u suggested.

i was wondering though if there is a way to display the entire metabox without being editable, just the values.

thank u

Yes i thought so. Another issue with my repeatable fields is that the remove icon (x) and the toggle icon dont work on the front end. om the backend everything is ok

thank you

yeap u r right i managed to do it by
<?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), ‘submitted_town’, true); ?>

thank you

On my front end submit form i am using something like this

$cmb->add_field( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Town’, ‘wds-post-submit’ ),
‘id’ => ‘submitted_town’,
‘type’ => ‘text’,
) );
What i would like to do is to display the value of this entry. Just the value. I tried get_post_meta( $post_id, ‘submitted_town’, true ); but still cant get the value.
any quick hint?

done the first part
function details(){
global $post,$current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
if ($post->post_author == $current_user->ID) {
$object_id = $postid;
$metabox_id = ‘test_metabox’;
cmb2_metabox_form( $metabox_id, $object_id );

}
return false;
what i want now is to get cmb2 values outside the form, so that they wont be editable. any quick hint?

Hi let me be more specific. As i mentioned based on this snippet (https://github.com/WebDevStudios/CMB2-Snippet-Library/blob/master/front-end/cmb2-front-end-submit.php) i created a frontend submit form for a custom
post type. furthermore i used ‘post_author’ => $user_id.

In order to submit (using the above form) the user must be logged-in.
Then i am displaying this information on the frontend using a function which looks like this

function details(){
$postid = get_the_ID();
$object_id = $postid;
$metabox_id = ‘test_metabox’;
cmb2_metabox_form( $metabox_id, $object_id );
}
add_shortcode( ‘details’, ‘details’ );

what i would like to do is to make this information be editable only by the author (frontend). if somebody else is accessing the post he should just see the cmb2 meta vales and not being able to edit them.
