Select field with CPT titles as options

Hi @soniamariano,

now I need, for another select field, that the options are dynamically loaded from an existing (published) CPT titles. How can I achieve that?

The workflow will be similar to the existing snippet you have mentioned. Instead of predefined options in the example:

private $options = array(
            'value-1'    => 'Label 1',
            'value-2'    => 'Label 2',
            'value-3'    => 'Label 3',
        );

You’ll need to dynamically call the CPT titles. Maybe you might find the following helpful:

Hi Nithin @wpmudevsupport11,

Thank you for your time.

This seems to be very simple to achieve and however I’m unable do get it working…

I tried following your example but keep getting code errors that I don’t understand.

I also tried just adding this

		array(
	     'post_type' => 'programmes',  
	     'numberposts' => -1,  
	     'orderby' => 'title',  
	     'order' => 'ASC' 
)

but the select field shows me “programmes”,”-1″,”title” etc. as options.

Any ideas on this?

Hi @soniamariano ,

Could you please try replacing the “wpmudev_forminator_before_form_render” function in the given snippet with the following and see whether it helps?

    public function wpmudev_forminator_before_form_render( $id ){
            
            if( $this->form_id != $id ){
                return;
            }
            
            

             $post_type_query  = new WP_Query(  
			array (  
				'post_type'      => 'programmes',  
			)  
		);   
		$posts_array      = $post_type_query->posts;   
		$post_title_array = wp_list_pluck( $posts_array, 'post_title', 'ID' );
		
				$i = 0;
		                foreach( $post_title_array as $key => $value ){
		                
               		                $post_title[] = $value; 

        		                 array_push($this->options, $post_title[$i]);
		                
			                $i++;
		                 }
		                 
            add_filter( 'forminator_field_markup', array( $this, 'wpmudev_forminator_field_markup' ), 10, 2 );

        }

Kind Regards,

Hi Nithin @wpmudevsupport11,
Thank you very much, it worked! Just had to add a 'posts_per_page' => -1,
so that the field showed all the CPTs titles.
I wish you the best!
Kind regards,
Sonia
