What is the status on this? I'm currently working on a site that wants inline editing and filtering for serialized data.
@ebertucc There are no plans to tackle this any time soon. Our integrations for the most popular custom field plugins do support serialized data, but to support this out-of-the-box for custom field column that have serialized data is more complicated to make it available in the UI as well.
Understood. I'll try out the ACF integration. Thanks @DGStefan
Serialized data is displayed by selecting "multiple values" in the column settings. This will
implode
all values and display the key and value combinations.We can enhance this further by allowing the user to define which field (key) should be displayed, ignoring all other values. This can be useful when there is a need to only show a single value from within the serialized data.
This could also mean the data can have support for features like inline edit, sorting, and filtering.
