Hi Fernando, it is not matter of styling the block or just pagination. It is the possibility to add, for example, custom information pulled off custom fields.

For example, in a website I have used this snippet:

add_action( 'wpsp_after_content', function( $settings ) {
    if ( 12 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
   $centro = get_field( 'centro_investigacion' );
   
   if ( $centro ) {
echo '<b>Centre de recerca:</b> ';
   foreach ( $centro as $post_ids ) {
   $link = get_permalink( $post_ids );
   $meta = get_the_title( $post_ids );
   echo "<br></br><a href='$link' target='_blank'>$meta</a> ";
   
}
}         
}
} );

add_action( 'wpsp_after_content', function( $settings ) {
    if ( 12 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
   $area = get_field( 'area_investigacion' );
   
   if ( $area ) {
echo '<br></br><br></br><b>Àrea de recerca:</b> ';
   foreach ( $area as $post_ids ) {
   $link = get_permalink( $post_ids );
   $meta = get_the_title( $post_ids );
   echo "<br></br><a href='$link' target='_blank'>$meta</a> ";
   
}
}         
}
} );

add_action( 'wpsp_after_content', function( $settings ) {
    if ( 12 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
   $proyectos = get_field( 'proyectos' );
   
   if ( $proyectos ) {
echo '<br></br><br></br><b>Projectes:</b> ';
   foreach ( $proyectos as $post_ids ) {
   $link = get_permalink( $post_ids );
   $meta = get_the_title( $post_ids );
   echo "<br></br><a href='$link' target='_blank'>$meta</a> ";
   
}
}         
}
} );

add_action( 'wpsp_after_content', function( $settings ) {
    if ( 12 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'enlace_a_orcid', true );
		$meta2 = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'enlace_researchgate', true );
		$meta3 = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'enlace_academia', true );
		$meta4 = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'enlace_grec', true );
       echo "<br></br><br></br>";
        if ( $meta ) {
            echo "<a href='$meta' target='_blank'><img src='https://ilercovid.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/orcid-logo.png'></a> ";}
		if ( $meta2 ) {
			echo "<a href='$meta2' target='_blank'><img src='https://ilercovid.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/logo-researchgate.png'></a> ";
        }
		if ( $meta3 ) {
			echo "<a href='$meta3' target='_blank'><img src='https://ilercovid.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/academia.png'></a> ";
        }
		if ( $meta4 ) {
			echo "<a href='$meta4' target='_blank'><img src='https://ilercovid.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/grec-logo.png'></a> ";
        }
		
    }
} );

My question is if this kind of hooks are still avaiable via block.

Many thanks.

Yessssss! I made it work with an action 🙂

here is the code:

add_action( ‘wpsp_after_title’, ‘dht_custom_abstract_link’ );
function dht_custom_abstract_link() {
$link = get_field(‘speaker_in_abstract’);
if( $link ):
$link_url = $link[‘url’];
$link_title = $link[‘title’];
$link_target = $link[‘target’] ? $link[‘target’] : ‘_self’;
?>

<div class=”speaker-info”>
<p>Speaker:  </p>” target=”<?php echo esc_attr( $link_target ); ?>”><?php echo esc_html( $link_title ); ?>
</div>
<?php endif;
}

The question:

After searching and tweaking, fiddling and trying, I decided to ask my question on the forum 🙂

I have 2 custom post types;
– Speaker
– Abstracts (something the speaker said)

The abstracts are shown in a 3 column grid on the homepage.

My client asked if it’s possible to show the link to the speaker, under the title of the abstract. (as I would with a category or a tag).

Normally I would connect those via a category or a tag, but as these are both custom post types, it’s not possible (out of the box) to make a relation between these 2 post types.

In the ‘Abstract’ post, I made a custom field (link) with the Generatepress Elements/hooks, so I can select the url to the speaker, and show it on that particular ‘Abstract’ below the content.

Now, my question;
How can I show this same link (to the speaker of this abstract) under the title of the post type abstract?

Examples:
On the 3 column grid of this homepage, https://www.digitalhumanitiestilburg.com/

The way the abstract should look (title, category – we are not going to use images here, so text only and no cards or any fancy layout)
https://www.digitalhumanitiestilburg.com/speakers/

I would like the same speaker-link as in: https://www.digitalhumanitiestilburg.com/abstracts/finding-the-human-in-the-dark-forest-perspectives-on-user-practices-outside-of-social-media-platforms/ (speaker is below the content, in the yellow box).

I have also tried to place this same code below via a custom hook in generatepress, but it didn’t work (I cannot select the appropriate place for it to be shown.)

The code I used for the custom link is this (and i’d like to ‘get’ the same link to show under the title of the abstracts):

<div class=”speaker-wrapper”>
<?php

$link = get_field(‘speaker_in_abstract’);
if( $link ):
$link_url = $link[‘url’];
$link_title = $link[‘title’];
$link_target = $link[‘target’] ? $link[‘target’] : ‘_self’;
?>

<div class=”speaker-info”>
Speaker:  
” target=”<?php echo esc_attr( $link_target ); ?>”><?php echo esc_html( $link_title ); ?>
</div>

<?php endif; ?>
</div>

Hope you can help me out!
Thanks in advance!

ok, i typed why because my post got rejected…. Too many words?

Hi Elvin,

Thank you for your reply.
I tried your instructions (see below). Before that, i also thought of a couple of possible alternatives. Maybe you have some thoughts on it?
– I thought of using the “Lightweight social icons” plugin from Tom, thinking it would be simple. However, i could not get it to show in the WPSP view so i dropped it.
– After looking at the plugin code, i also thought of simply extending the ” Show social sharing buttons” options by replicating and adapting the existing structure in the code. However, this would be lost with the next upgrade so i also dropped it 🙁

Following your instructions, I’ve started by using the ACF plugin to create an extra field called “linkedin__profile” (Type “Link”), to be used and displayed only in Posts of a certain category. The plugin also allows to assign a css class, which is handy.
Since i’m using a child theme, I’ve added the php snippet above into the functions.php file, adapted as such:

add_filter( ‘after_setup_theme’, function(){
remove_action( ‘wpsp_after_content’, ‘wpsp_add_social_sharing’, 10 );
add_action( ‘wpsp_after_content’, function(){echo get_field(‘linkedin__profile’);
}, 10 );
});

However, i’m still not managing to display it correctly in the WPSP view (or in the single post itself, but that’s another thing). It either shows “Array” or the url as plain text. I’ve seen this mentioned in this thread Custom fields, so i’m checking that more carefully since i’m not very experienced in this part 🙂

That’s is all for now. Thank you for your time and help,
Paulo
I’ll add the css through the “Customize > Additional CSS” path.
