Create Supporter CPT

[lovestulip]

Description

This request is to replicate the "Supporter" Custom Post Type (CPT) functionality from staging to production.

Ariel has tested the following code on the staging environment:

function display_cpt_supporters() {
    // Override the main query for this specific case
    query_posts(array(
        'post_type' => 'supporter',
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'orderby' => 'title',
        'order' => 'ASC'
    ));

    $output = '<div class="cpt-posts-container">';

    if (have_posts()) {
        while (have_posts()) {
            the_post();

            // Fetch ACF fields
            $name = get_field('name');
            $organization = get_field('organization');
            $quote = get_field('quote');
            $link = get_field('link');

            $output .= '<div class="cpt-post">';
            $output .= '<div class="supporter-info">';
            $output .= '<p><strong>' . esc_html($name) . '</strong><br />';

            // Check if the link field exists and is not empty
            if ($link) {
                $output .= '<i><a href="' . esc_url($link) . '" target="_blank">' . esc_html($organization) . '</a></i><br />';
            } else {
                $output .= '<i>' . esc_html($organization) . '</i><br />';
            }

            if ($quote) {
                $output .= '&quot;' . esc_html($quote) . '&quot;';
            }
            $output .= '</div>';
            $output .= '</div>';
        }
        wp_reset_query(); // Reset the query to the original
    } else {
        $output .= '';
    }

    $output .= '</div>';
    return $output;
}
add_shortcode('display_supporters', 'display_cpt_supporters');

Ariel has requested us to move this functionality to production and ensure it is safe to deploy without breaking existing functionality.

Hey

This has been added to staging. I have it ready to go into production along with #152

Also can confirm that just doing the export from ACF/SCF works for the post type and meta fields. Plus the WP export works fine for the post content too (i did this to test on my local)

If you would like me to importer those too, let me know :)

@ajolo2ky Can you please review the latest update and let us know how you'd like us to proceed?

[ajolo2ky]

Hi, thanks. Yes, please promote it to production.

Also, would it be possible in the wp-admin editing of the CPT, to remove the main body block and just show the custom fields?

[gin0115]

I will get this pushed up now.

As for the content editor, you can remove that in the ACF Post Type settings

Do you want me to import the supporters that are present on the staging site? I have got the export file to hand (didn't share as this is a public repo)

[ajolo2ky]

Thanks! Yes, please import the ones that are already there.

[gin0115]

I will try and hop on the computer and get them imported tonight 🙂

[gin0115]

Didnt get a chance last night, but have imported them today.

[gin0115]

This has all been imported, can we close this out now?

[lovestulip]

@ajolo2ky Can you please confirm?

[ajolo2ky]

Hi, sorry for the delay. This is worked, but the slug of supporters appears to be /blog/supporter/[supporter], it should be /supporter/[supporter] without /blog. Is that feasible? thanks.

[gin0115]

I have changed the permalink locally, its all handled in the ACF settings

It was adding blog/supporter due to the sites main permalink settings

Do we want the post single to be accessible? As these are all just ACF meta fields, there is no content to render for the supporters.

We can use the same format as the shortcode supporter item for the post single views

@ajolo2ky Let us know your thoughts on the above when you can! Thank you so much!

[ajolo2ky]

Hi, sorry for the delay. I'm not finding the advanced settings box you are showing in the screenshot, where should that be inside of ACF?

Thanks,
