How to get a Full List of your Post’s Meta Data
If you're setting up a Meta Reference, but this isn't showing up in your grid, the following tip can help to make sure the "Original Handle" being used is correct.Useful for WooCommerce, Events Manager, and other CPT's.
1. Temporarily add the following code snippet to your theme's "functions.php" file.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 |
function my_post_meta( $content ) { $my_meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID() ); $my_meta_data = '<pre>' . print_r( $my_meta, true ) . '</pre>'; return $content . $my_meta_data; } if( !is_admin() ) { add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_post_meta' ); } |
2. View one of your posts, pages or products on the front-end of your site.
The Meta Data will then be shown toward the bottom of the page and look something like the screenshot here:
In the screenshot to the right, the “Original Handle” for “Total Sales” is:
|
1 2 3 |
total_sales |
and the “Original Handle” for “Sale Price” is:
|
1 2 3 |
_sale_price |
