Hi Evan,
Thanks for the update and sorry about the delay. I’ve tested 1.2.2 and the backend table is now working perfectly.
I also took your advice and extended the plugin to what I needed, basically adding a custom metabox for an URL and wrapping it around the featured timeline express image:
// Timeline Express - Frontend - Wrap custom Article URL around image
function acn_timeline_express_image_wrap_article_url( $image_html, $post_id ) {
//global $post;
$article_url = timeline_express_get_custom_meta( $post_id, 'announcement_article_url', true );
if ( !empty ($article_url) ) {
$image_html = '<a href="' . $article_url . '" target="_blank">' . $image_html . '</a>';
}
return $image_html;
}
add_filter( 'timeline_express_image', 'acn_timeline_express_image_wrap_article_url', 10, 2 );
// Timeline Express - Backend - Add Article URL custom metabox to backend announcement item
function timeline_express_article_url_metabox( $options ) {
$announcement_custom_metabox = new_cmb2_box( array(
'id' => 'announcement_article_url_metabox',
'title' => 'Custom Data',
'object_types' => array( 'te_announcements' ), // Post type
'context' => 'advanced',
'priority' => 'high',
'show_names' => true, // Show field names on the left
) );
// Container class
$announcement_custom_metabox->add_field( array(
'name' => 'Article URL',
'desc' => 'If filled it will wrap as a link around the featured image',
'id' => 'announcement_article_url',
'type' => 'text',
) );
}
add_action( 'timeline_express_metaboxes', 'timeline_express_article_url_metabox' );
It doesn’t have any “bling” but it does the job.
Thanks for your update!
ps: very good extensibility and documentation!
