Placement rules: parent-is-xxx

    Recently I created a custom field for some product data. The products are simply sub-pages of another page and I only needed to show this custom field on those sub-pages.

    I couldn’t figure out a way of doing this (bar creating a custom template for product pages and selecting it every time). What would have been really useful, would be a PAGE placement rule such as “Parent is”, in addition to the usual “Equals” and “Is not”.

    Just a thought!

    Support for a “Parent Page” placement rule may get added to a future version.

    If you’re a developer, CFS does include a cfs_matching_groups hook that would allow you to manually attach a field group.

    Sorry, I never got around to replying to this – many thanks for your response.

    Interesting that there’s a hook to use. I had a look at the support page on your site, but couldn’t quite understand how to modify it to be able to add something like:

    $post->post_parent == '2' || $post->post_parent == '28'

    to target just those edit pages which are sub-pages of specific IDs. I’ll have to have another go eventually!
