Add/Replace Fields

  • I’m a relative neophyte but have only a little bit of sql and php knowledge. What I’d like to do is to add/replace the external_link_title and external_link on all my posts en mass. I’m not sure if there is a plug-in to do this or what the specific sql commands would be. Can someone offer advice? thanks.

    This seems to only replace already existing content. I’m trying to add an external_link_title and external_link to posts that don’t yet have them and to update those that already do.

    Not exactly sure what external link and link title you wanted to insert.

    In case it is an anchor text that wanted to appear in all posts, this is doable via text widget inside a widget area that’s registered to appear before (or after) post content. The text widget can also be controlled to appear conditionally based on WP conditional tags, like add this to only posts that has this tag or category.

    If the above is what you wanted, look for info on how to add widget area into post content (like the after post widget), and look for a plugin that control appearance of widget based on conditional tags.

    If this is not what you exactly looking for, please post your question again in Developing with WordPress sub forum here.
