Hello,
I configured one of the WP Show Posts shortcodes with a filter based on the pair meta_key = “um_restriction_content” / meta_value=”um_interno”. Results are no posts. None other filters are actincg. As soon I remove the meta filter, the posts are displayed again. It seems the filter is not acting. I copied the names of meta_key and meta_value directly from the Wp database with phpMyadmin.
What I am doing wrong?
RegardsHi there,
To clarify, are you trying to show posts with custom field
um_restriction_contentthat has a field value ofum_interno?Can you show us the code you’re using to check for any potential issues with it?
Hi,
I enclose a couple of screenshoots which hopefully clarify.I do not use any code, just wpsp settings:

https://testsdii.focolars.cat/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Screenshot-2021-09-06-23.35.03.pngI can’t seem to access the links provided.
Can you try uploading them on sites like imgur?
or perhaps provide a Cloudapp or Loom screenshot?
Are you able to get access to this video now?
https://www.loom.com/share/9d1a460249d546088b58756a5cbfdf2cLet’s dig a bit deeper and do some checks.
Can you do a var_dump() of the post’s post_meta?
Sample code:
$meta_values = get_post_meta( get_the_ID() ); var_dump( $meta_values );Hook this on an existing hook on your theme’s single post page. This way we can see and fully verify the post meta in existence by going to a single post page with the supposed
um_restriction_contentmeta.In the single post with that restriction I got this dump:
array(18) { [“_edit_lock”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(12) “1630963642:1” } [“classic-editor-remember”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(12) “block-editor” } [“_edit_last”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) “1” } [“um_content_restriction”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(422) “a:9:{s:26:”_um_custom_access_settings”;b:1;s:14:”_um_accessible”;i:2;s:16:”_um_access_roles”;a:2:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:10:”um_interno”;s:1:”1″;}s:28:”_um_access_hide_from_queries”;b:0;s:19:”_um_noaccess_action”;i:1;s:30:”_um_restrict_by_custom_message”;i:0;s:27:”_um_restrict_custom_message”;s:0:””;s:19:”_um_access_redirect”;i:0;s:23:”_um_access_redirect_url”;s:42:”https://testsdii.focolars.cat/wp-login.php”;}” } [“_stc_notifier_status”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(4) “sent” } [“_stc_notifier_request”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } [“_thumbnail_id”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(4) “1163” } [“_stc_notifier_sent_time”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) “2021-08-12 23:32:27” } [“mec_location_id”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) “0” } [“mec_additional_location_ids”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(6) “a:0:{}” } [“mec_organizer_id”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) “0” } [“mec_additional_organizer_ids”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(6) “a:0:{}” } [“wppb-content-restrict-type”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(7) “message” } [“wppb-content-restrict-user-role”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(10) “um_interno” } [“wppb-content-restrict-user-status”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(8) “loggedin” } [“wppb-content-restrict-custom-redirect-url”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } [“wppb-content-restrict-message-logged_out”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } [“wppb-content-restrict-message-logged_in”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } }
I-InternoCan you display the var_dump on the single post page itself? Since you’re using GeneratePress, you can hook the var_dump code on
generate_after_headerhook. And then link us to that page. Thanks. 😀It seems to me that there’s no
um_restriction_contentbut there isum_content_restriction. I think that’s the meta key you should use.You are right. In my message as of Sept 6, I reversed the words ordering when writing the meta_key. The correct one is “um_content_restriction” as stated in the video I sent to you. I enclose a new one to clarify what I am dumping: https://www.loom.com/share/322fc944c62f4665aabdc212a0a0a990
and I paste the dump:
array(18) { [“_edit_lock”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(12) “1630963642:1” } [“classic-editor-remember”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(12) “block-editor” } [“_edit_last”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) “1” } [“um_content_restriction”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(422) “a:9:{s:26:”_um_custom_access_settings”;b:1;s:14:”_um_accessible”;i:2;s:16:”_um_access_roles”;a:2:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:10:”um_interno”;s:1:”1″;}s:28:”_um_access_hide_from_queries”;b:0;s:19:”_um_noaccess_action”;i:1;s:30:”_um_restrict_by_custom_message”;i:0;s:27:”_um_restrict_custom_message”;s:0:””;s:19:”_um_access_redirect”;i:0;s:23:”_um_access_redirect_url”;s:42:”https://testsdii.focolars.cat/wp-login.php”;}” } [“_stc_notifier_status”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(4) “sent” } [“_stc_notifier_request”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } [“_thumbnail_id”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(4) “1163” } [“_stc_notifier_sent_time”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) “2021-08-12 23:32:27” } [“mec_location_id”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) “0” } [“mec_additional_location_ids”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(6) “a:0:{}” } [“mec_organizer_id”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) “0” } [“mec_additional_organizer_ids”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(6) “a:0:{}” } [“wppb-content-restrict-type”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(7) “message” } [“wppb-content-restrict-user-role”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(10) “um_interno” } [“wppb-content-restrict-user-status”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(8) “loggedin” } [“wppb-content-restrict-custom-redirect-url”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } [“wppb-content-restrict-message-logged_out”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } [“wppb-content-restrict-message-logged_in”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) “” } }
I think this is because the value of
um_content_restrictionis a string with multiple characters other thanum_interno.Doing a simple
value => 'um_interno'would return notice because there’s no plain stringum_internoas value ofum_content_restriction.That said, you may have to resort to achieving the desired query with a filter.
You’ll need to use
compare => 'LIKE'so the query checking looks for theum_internowithin the value ofum_content_restriction.To do the filter, you’ll have to modify the plugin’s code a bit to Tom’s instruction here –
https://wpshowposts.com/support/topic/can-i-exclude-with-a-custom-meta-field-from-a-list/#post-13344And then use this PHP snippet:
add_filter( "wp_show_posts_shortcode_args", function ($args, $settings) { if (1234 === (int) $settings["list_id"]) { $args['meta_query'] = array( 'relation' => 'AND', array( 'key' => 'um_content_restriction', 'compare' => 'EXISTS' ), array( 'key' => 'um_content_restriction', 'value' => 'um_interno', 'compare' => 'LIKE' ), ); } return $args; },10,2);And then replace 1234 on this part of the code –
if (1234 === (int) $settings["list_id"])– to the WPSP list ID you’re using.Thank you, however it is delivered a critical error on wordpress.
I inserted this piece of code just before the query (line 381) at wp-show-posts.php.
Anything else I can do?The PHP snippet I’ve provided goes to a Code snippets plugin or a child theme’s functions.php. It shouldn’t be placed on the plugin’s code.
It’s separate from Tom’s instructions of modification on the plugin’s file. The plugin code modification was to make sure my snippet would work. 🙂
When placing the above code in the child theme’s functions.php, I get this error message from WP admin:
