Pods: Support for editing with Bidirectional Fields

[DGStefan]

More Info HS#11154

I'm using the Pods addon, and it seems that there is an issue. See attached screenshot. Basically I'm working with a bidirectional single select field, and admin columns pro doesn't catch the change on the applications when I remove a job application from the job listing.

Update We will not fix or implement this in our code because of the following

• Using Inline Edit works the same as normal edit.php features
• Old relationships are not removed by Pods but instead are not display when retrieving the value (Pods hooks)
• Our Pro feature rely on the database values, not the hooked Pods values so there is not way to alter this behavior in our plugin

Workaround A possible workaround would be to alter the value of the Pods Relationship column and use the get_post_meta() method to display the value. Because Pods hooks into this method to do the valid relationship check, this would display the correct value on the overview page. Possible snippet

/**

• @param $value
• @param int $id
• @param AC\Column $column */ function acp_pods_relationship_hooked_value( $value, $id, $column ){ if( $column instanceof ACA\Pods\Column && 'pick' === $column->get_field_type() ){ $value = get_post_meta( $id, $column->get_meta_key(), true ); if( is_array( $value ) && $value['ID'] ){ $value = get_the_title( $value['ID'] ); } } return $value; } add_filter( 'ac/column/value', 'acp_pods_relationship_hooked_value', 10, 3 );
