Conditional related type

    Hi.

    I have a site where contributors can add posts of type ‘Brand’ and ‘Invoicing by brand’. In the ‘Invoicing by brand’ post I have a custom field ‘Brand’ as related type so it displays all Brands in the system. However I would like to show just the Brands which were added by the current contributor. Is there any way to do that?

    Thanks.

    I just solved it.

    I modified the plugin. In the plugin’s folder I duplicated the related_type_field folder. I renamed it as related_author_type_field (the folder and the php file). And then in related_author_type_field.php I added an ‘if’ statement to check if the current user is the author inside the display_field function:

    public function display_field( $field, $group_index = 1, $field_index = 1 ) {
   ...
   foreach($options as $option) {
      if($option->post_author == get_current_user_id()) { // Added
         ... // Here everything that was inside the foreach
      }
   }
   ...
}
