Hi Steven,
OK, maybe. But the theme works, the client is happy, there are no problems. so I do not see any necaissity to recode it. My only concern was the security of the old code.

Thanks. That is my only concern: That the older versions uf unserscore might be outdated since there are no updates abailaable, but the code of underscores is no more that one it used to be.

Since years I build 50% og my sites using underscore, now it must be a lot… ??

UPDATE:
I resolved the problem myself, I had a mistake in my code. But nevertheless, another problem stays:

In the email created, I have a <span> that should be changed dynamically. It goes like this: <span class ="placeholder">PLACEHOLDER</span>

In my jQuery code, I have a variable var col. The value of that variable is created dynamically. The <span> should be substituted with the value of the variable. That works very well in the form like this:
$(".placeholder").text(col);

But it does NOT work in the email sent. So I suppose, I will have to execute jquery on the email. How can I do that?

Thanks
Raphael

Thank you! I will have a look at Dokan.

No, it is stored in the database like ‘new_director’. I saw it in MySQLadmin.

But the main question is to export/import. It cannt be that much difficult. ??

Hi joy,
thank you for the answer, but I am nor sure if that is the best possiblity.
If I have in my database “director” and ‘new_director’ and I change the first (‘director’) to the second (‘new_director’) It might occure that I have in the same post two metakeys of the same name. That is not a very solid solution, cause it can lead to further trouble.

The magic question is: How to
1) export the metavalue of each metakey ‘director’, lets say to Exel.
2) then to erase the whole line
as it is no longer needed (that part is mandatory)
3) and import the metavalue into ‘new_director’

I am really no MySQL-expert. But it does not seem to be really hard. And I do not need to ask in ACF-support. It is a simple MySQL-question, as far as I understand it. (Hope so. ?? )

Sorry, you are right. I will explasin more in detail:
I am using Contact Form 7 forms in a wordpress page. Users can fill in the cf7 form, the content the users fill in, is sent by email and Postie to WordPress in order to be turned into a post. That works perfectly now. Thanks a lot.

One of my challenges is now, that the Contact Form 7 form uses a <select> with a bunch of options The loptions are lets say – category1, category2 and category3. What I want is, that the option the user chooses is used as a category for the post.

Off cours the categories that are available witihn the wordpress installation and the options that are stored in the <select> are identical. So: if I a user chooses – lets imagine – the option “category2” the post should be published within category2.

I suppose the filter postie_category has to be used for doing this. (?)

Thank you
Raphael

Hello Wayne,
thank you for the answer. That sounds pretty good, I think I can do that.

Another question: The form also contains a <select> for choosing between different options. I want to use the chosen option as a category. That might be a bit tricky, what you think?

The first problem is how to target the <select>. Then I have to retrieve the content, and then I have to use it as a category. Do you have any ideas how to do that? (It is not necaissairy to post the complete code here. Just some ideas how to make that working would be fine. (If possible without research.)

Thank you!
Raphael

OK, I am back. ?? It really seems to work. The first test was quite good. Sorry again.

There are several minor problems, but I think I will resolve them on my own. The main question is, that I do not know how to display the content in a template. As far as I could see, I chose, that it should be published in a now post. But the content does not appear in the list of posts, it seems to be something different.

I can see in the left adminmenu now e field. It has the name I chose. But obviosely it is not a post. Could you please explain, what it is and how to dissplay it in a new coded template?

I will look in the documentation. If I find an answer to that question, I will publish it here and you do not have to spend time in answering.

Thanks!
Raphael

Sorry, it was obviousely my mistake in the first place. Thank you for corrections. Now I can start to test it. If everything works, I will give you – off course – a 5-stars rating.

About not answering support questions: Yes, you are also right about that. It is your sparetime you invest into developement.

The only point for me is that one: I install it, nothing happens, support seems not to answer. That brought me to the (wrong) idea that the plugin is abandoanted.

I hope you accept my excuse.
Raphael

OK, thank you. That information is enough. ??

OK, thank you. Can you send me the link to the PRO-Version? That might be helpfull!
Thanks

bcworks thanks. Ah, OK. I overread that you already resolved the problem. I need arrays of fields. ! Thanks! But how do I get them? Is there a plugin that can group fields in arrays?

Hi Joy,
thank you for the answer. Whether it will be stored in a plugin or somewhere else is not the main problem. My main question is: Is it possible to “group” the custom fields. Because I always need a pair of information:

custom field 1 might be a date,
custom field q a state (0, 1 or 2)

custom field 3 might be a date,
custom field 4 a state (0, 1 or 2)

custom field 5 might be a date,
custom field 6 a state (0, 1 or 2)

So how can I guarantee that field 11 is grouped with field 2, and field 3 is grouped with field 4 … That is my basic-question.

I read in the documatation of the plugin “Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) that this plugin can group the fields. But I do not know if that means exactly that what I want.

It is a bit hard to explain what I want. So the first thing should propably be that we make sure to talk about the same thing.

Hi Melinda,
I thougt, that this is the Stripe support. ?? Could you please tell me how I can reach the right contact?
Thank you
Raphael
