bunchweb Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 Hi, I just got done with the Custom Post Type tutorial which was really great at explaining how to further customize WP. I thought I could duplicate what Ben created to build multiple input fields in the Meta Boxes for more content variables. However it didn't quite work. I think I got hung up on the function save_options(). Is it possible to post an example of the functions.php file using multiple meta box variables, such as "price", "artist", "dimensions", "year", etc... Thanks for any advice on this matter. Here's what I wrote but didn't work: // inputs function product_options() { global $post; $custom = get_post_custom($post->ID); $price = $custom['price'][0]; $artist = $custom['artist'][0]; $artist = $custom['year'][0]; echo '<label style="padding-right:40px;">Price:</label> <input name="price" value="'. $price . '" style="width:250px;" /> <br>'; echo '<label style="padding-right:40px;">Artist:</label> <input name="price" value="'. $artist . '" style="width:250px;" /> <br>'; echo '<label style="padding-right:40px;">Year:</label> <input name="price" value="'. $year . '" style="width:250px;" /> <br>'; } function save_options() // saves inputs { global $post; if (!isset($_POST['price'], $_POST['artist'], $_POST['year'] )|| $post->post_type != 'product') { return $post; } update_post_meta($post->ID,"price", $_POST['price']); update_post_meta($post->ID,"artist", $_POST['artist']); update_post_meta($post->ID,"artist", $_POST['year']); } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
