How to set the post title to my Name input field?

Hello,

The post title is displayed in the post_fields attribute of the shortcode. Please use the MB Frontend Submission to add other fields to the form.

In your situation, it sounds like changing the label for post title from "Post Title" to "Name".

So, please create a folder in your theme called mb-frontend-submission. Inside that folder, create a sub-folder called post. And inside post, create a file title.php, which contains the following code (don't worry, just copy and paste):

<?php
$title = $data->post_id ? get_post_field( 'post_title', $data->post_id ) : '';
$field = apply_filters( 'rwmb_frontend_post_title', array(
    'type' => 'text',
    'name' => esc_html__( 'Name', 'rwmb-frontend-submission' ),
    'id'   => 'post_title',
    'std'  => $title,
) );
$field = RWMB_Field::call( 'normalize', $field );
RWMB_Field::call( $field, 'admin_enqueue_scripts' );
RWMB_Field::call( 'show', $field, false, $data->post_id );

That's it!

Please try and let me know how it works.

I see you use the folder template-parts. It should be without it (probably you did it, but please try again), like in this screenshot:

I've just tested and here is the result:

Yes, please send me a temporary account to [email protected]. I’ll check it.

I've checked on your site and I see you created a field with ID post_title. But as it's a field in a meta box, it can't be a post field.

To add post field, you need to change the shortcode to:

[mb_frontend_form id="dominantgegevens,diensten" post_fields="title"]

And the template for post title now works.

Just a note: post fields (such as post title, editor, thumbnail, etc.) are not part of meta boxes, so you can't wrap it in tabs. They will appear above the tabs.

Hi,

To assign a fixed value to the category, use the taxonomy field. And set the default value (std parameter) to the category ID. Then that default value will be used when you submit the form.

In order to hide the field, just add a custom CSS class to the field (like hidden) and add this line into your theme, or in Customizer > Additional CSS:

.hidden { display: none; }

That's it. Please try and let me know how it goes.

Oops, the Default value is missed from the Builder. I'll fix it asap. In the mean time, you can set via custom attribute. Just set the key to std and the value to ID of the category:
