Excellent plugin, congratulations! * I was wondering if would be possible to insert some additional fields in the form to add an advertising and use them as filters as well. * Thanks a lot! * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpadverts/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpadverts/) Viewing 14 replies - 1 through 14 (of 14 total) * [Sebastien SERRE](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sebastienserre/) * (@sebastienserre) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681089) * Hello, * It seems possible: [http://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-fields/](http://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-fields/) i’m currently trying to add ACF field…and lots of error!! * Plugin Author [Greg Winiarski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwin/) * (@gwin) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681117) * The recommended way do this is described here [http://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-fields/](http://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-fields/)( it requires some PHP programming knowledge). * The ACF plugin will not allow you to do that i suppose. * [Sebastien SERRE](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sebastienserre/) * (@sebastienserre) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681127) * ACF is creating my custom fields so I don’t understand I can’t link them in the shortcode [adverts_add] … * Plugin Author [Greg Winiarski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwin/) * (@gwin) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681130) * Because WPAdverts and ACF are using different “APIs” to manage meta fields, so[ adverts_add] is not aware of ACF fields and vice versa, Custom Fields created as in WPAdverts documentation will not be visible in ACF. * [Sebastien SERRE](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sebastienserre/) * (@sebastienserre) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681132) * Which API do you use? * Plugin Author [Greg Winiarski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwin/) * (@gwin) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681166) * See [http://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-fields/](http://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-fields/) maybe it’s not as much as API, but rather data used to generate form. * [Sebastien SERRE](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sebastienserre/) * (@sebastienserre) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681218) * Hello, I’ve some trouble to understand how to add custom field. I’d like to add a required fields with an integer. This code runs only for “is_required but not for “is_integer” * ``` $form["field"][] = array( "name" => "advert_bed", "type" => "adverts_field_text", "order" => 20, "label" => 'couchage', "max_choices" => 1, "options" => array(), "is_required" => true, "validator" => array( array( "name"=> "is_required", ), array( "name" => "is_integer" ), ), ); ``` * Could you quickly explain how your code is running (I tihink you should discover ACF, it will give your plugin and there users more ease to create custom field. * Plugin Author [Greg Winiarski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwin/) * (@gwin) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681254) * Hi, 1. i do know about ACF plugin it is amazing, but i do not really think it is suitable for integration with WPAdverts as it is made only to have custom fields in wp-admin panel not in the frontend. * 2. if the value for the field is not provided then only is_required validator will be run, if there is value in the form all validators will be executed however i found there is a bug in is_integer, it will validate number properly but if the provided text is string (“abcd”) it will always pass validation i will fix this in next release. * Other than that your code seems fine. * [Hartamon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hartamon/) * (@hartamon) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681322) * Hi! * Thanks for great plugin! * Is there a way to show different custom fields for different categories& * Plugin Author [Greg Winiarski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwin/) * (@gwin) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681332) * Hi, i am afraid not mainly because the code which customizes the form structure is executed before category is selected. * Thread Starter [lborges1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lborges1981/) * (@lborges1981) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681334) * Sorry by being so newbie, but wich file(s) I am supposed to edit in order to have custom fields in the form and the listing? Tried to follow the documentation but wasn’t able to find the correct file. Thanks a lot! * [Sebastien SERRE](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sebastienserre/) * (@sebastienserre) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-6681335) * if you have php acknowledgement, you can include a in a mu-plugins or in your theme’s functions.php * [Jukka Mykkänen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karusellimedia/) * (@karusellimedia) * [9 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-8195823) * Hi, * I have a little problem with positioning the custom fields. I’d like to put new fields right after category. But, if I set Order to 20 the custom fields go to the end of the form and if I set it to 19 the custom fields go right after users contact info. Any ideas? * Plugin Author [Greg Winiarski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwin/) * (@gwin) * [9 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-fields-183/#post-8200978) * Hi, right now all the fields have order either 10 or 20, to put a field exactly after selected field, you will need to first reset fields order * ``` add_filter("adverts_form_load", "reset_fields_order", 5); function reset_fields_order( $form ) { if( $form["name"] != "advert" ) { return $form; } $i = 0; foreach( $form["field"] as $k => $field ) { $form["field"][$k]["order"] = $i*5; $i++; } return $form; } ``` * After adding this code each field should have its own unique order number and you should be able to place a field exactly where you would like to have it.
