Hi @joost-abrahams

unfortunately there is no defined standard here. But since statuses are only stored as standard terms in WordPress you can get the status with the function get_term_by() and then access the attribute description there.

I have created this as a small debugging page template. So you can test it.

<?php

/* Template Name: Example Template */

echo '<pre>';
$statusDescription = get_term_by('slug', get_post_status(), 'status');
var_dump($statusDescription->description);
echo '</pre>';
exit;

In a child theme, for example, you could work with it to access the description of the status.

I hope this helps you.

Hi @roadlink

Yes the plugin also works for WooCommerce products. Feel free to try it out.

Hi @martinsauter

thanks for the clarification, then I close the thread.

Hi @martinsauter,

Unfortunately I can’t recreate the problem exactly. I used the following setup and I can see the status metabox in posts as well as on pages. Is this box already not visible for you?

How can I recreate your problem exactly?

Here is my setup as a video: https://streamable.com/crqsf9

Hi @martinsauter,

thanks for the feedback. I will have a look at the problem and come back to your thread as soon as there is news or a solution.

Hi @martinneumannat

I hope you were able to solve and understand the problem. Since I haven’t heard from you, I’ll close the request, feel free to contact me again if the problem is not sufficiently solved or you have further problems using the plugin.

Greetings Felix

Hi @martinneumannat

Thank you for your feedback.

Could you open your post with the corresponding status once in an incognito browser tab or log out of the backend and see if the post still shows up? As long as you are logged in, posts that are set to “Not public” in the status are also visible to you.

I can imagine that this is not completely transparent, I think I should still adjust the label in the backend at this point.

Can you work with that?

Hi @mara-z,

please activate the plugin again. Once a custom status is set and you deactivate the plugin, your post will no longer be available (See FAQs). I hope to make up for your bad experience.

All settings you have set, like “show all posts” are only valid for the backend. The only setting which is valid for the frontend is “public”. Please see if your post shows up for you again once the plugin is re-enabled.

The status assigned to the post must exist!

If you still have problems, please contact us again. This should not happen.

Greetings Felix

Thanks for the feedback!
I’m glad the plugin helps you.

Hi @joeboemoe,

I just wanted to check in, I didn’t read over your post, but I’m currently very busy. I will have another look at the problem with version 5.9, but currently I can’t foresee when I will get to it.

Greetings Felix

Hi @norabrown212,

Thanks for the feedback, I hope to have solved the problem with version 1.0.19. Can you please update your plugin and test if the problem persists?

Greetings Felix

Hi @whgandalf,

sorry I am currently quite busy, therefore the very late response. I have now tried to reproduce your setup locally, but the setup with “Advanced Custom Fields PRO” and “Gravity Forms” contains two paid plugins, which I cannot install.

But I think the same problem is meant in the following post: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/script-output-before-doctype-is-causing-errors/

The script was not integrated correctly by me and should be integrated correctly with the update to version 1.0.19. Can you update the version and test if it works now?

Thanks for your feedback and patience.

Greetings Felix

Hi @leanderbraunschweig

The bug was unfortunately noticed right after the last release and corrected minutes later. Please uninstall and delete the plugin once and reinstall it. The bug was not released as a new version.

See: https://plugins.trac.www.ads-software.com/changeset?sfp_email=&sfph_mail=&reponame=&new=2661088%40extended-post-status%2Ftrunk&old=2661062%40extended-post-status%2Ftrunk&sfp_email=&sfph_mail=

After deleting and re-downloading the plugin, the problem should be fixed.

Thanks for the hint.

Greetings Felix

Hi @whgandalf

could you provide me with some more information please. Is your system up to date and what plugins do you use additionally?

Could you provide me with your site info? You can find this data under “Tools” – “Site Health” – “Info” – “Copy site info to clipboard”.

Thanks for using the plugin or at least trying so far ??

Greetings Felix
