Search Results for 'sf_input_object_pre label option'

[Ross]

Hi Maurino

We have a WP / PHP hook which you can use to modify each individual option in your field – you could then loop through all your options, count the total results, and add that to the first option (All Items) – this is the filter: https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/#filter-input-object

I’ve actually gone ahead and managed to create a code snippet for you that does this:

function add_count_to_first_option( $input_object, $sfid ) {

	// if the field doesn't have input options, then leave it alone
	if ( ! isset( $input_object['options'] ) ) {
		return $input_object;		
	}

	$total_count = 0;

	// loop through each option and add up the total count
	foreach ( $input_object['options'] as $option ) {
		if ( isset( $option->count ) ) {
			
			$total_count += absint( $option->count );
			
		}
	}

	// now check to make sure there was a first option (with value of "")
	// and update its count
	if ( isset(  $input_object['options'][0] ) ) {
		if ( '' === $input_object['options'][0]->value ) {
			$input_object['options'][0]->label .= ' (' . $total_count . ')';
		}
	}

	return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'add_count_to_first_option', 10, 2);

Add this to your themes functions.php, and that will add a count to all first options in your fields.

Thanks

Thank you again Trevor, although in my case, the value actually does exist in the post data. Perhaps it would help if I gave a more specific example of what I am trying to do ie.

Option group: Shop, event or both
Select: Country

Unfortunately countries are stored as a numerical ID in my postmeta which is why I want to use add_filter to change the label for each of them. For now, the code below attempts to change the label for just one country ie. 13 = Austria.

Page loads correctly initially and shows all post types for all countries
If I select one post type plus a country, search results work fine.
If I select both post types, no results are shown.
If I try to Reset the form, no results are shown.

I just cannot understand what the add_filter is doing (or attempting to do) in order to cause such results.

function filter_input_object2($input_object, $sfid)
{
	 
	if(($input_object['name']!='_sfm_country_id')||($input_object['type']!='select'))
	{
		return $input_object;
	}
	
	
	if(!isset($input_object['options']))
	{
		return $input_object;
	}
	
	
	foreach($input_object['options'] as $option)
	{
		if($option->value=="13")
		{
			$option->label = "Austria";
		}
		
	}
		
	return $input_object;
}

add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'filter_input_object2', 10, 2);

Note: yes I am aware there are ways of entering the postmeta labels manually and it seems that may be my only option but was reluctant to resort to this as it wouldn’t automatically handle new countries as/when they are added.

Hi there

I have search set up which allows the user to search one or both custom post types (ie. shops and events). They can also choose to search by shop category or event category.

I’m using the code below to add an additional option to the event category select box which works fine IF they select Event as the custom post type to search, however, if they don’t specifically select a custom post type to search (ie. are searching on BOTH types) then no results are returned.

Note: I’m using shortcodes to create the page ie.

[searchandfilter id=”13752″]
[searchandfilter id=”13752″ show=”results”]

The page loads fine initially, showing all 600 records, but as soon as I run a search without selecting a post type, no results are found… and even clicking “Reset” the query has no effect.

Any suggestions would be very gratefully received.

function edit_event_categories($input_object, $sfid) {
	
	if(($input_object['name']!='_sft_ecategory')||($input_object['type']!='select'))
	{
		return $input_object;
	}
	
	if(!isset($input_object['options']))
	{
		return $input_object;
	}
	
	//create a new option we want to add
	$new_last_option = new StdClass();
	$new_last_option->value = "99";
	$new_last_option->label = "Weekend";
	
	//add a brand new option to the bottom
	array_push($input_object['options'], $new_last_option);
		
	return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'edit_event_categories', 10, 2);

We got it working with this code:

function my_plugin_search_filter_change_label($input_object, $sfid) {
  if ($sfid == 58513 && $input_object['name'] == '_sf_post_type') {
    foreach ($input_object['options'] as $key => $option) {
      if ($option->label == 'Posts') {
        $input_object['options'][$key]->label = 'Articles';
      } 
    }
  }
  return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'my_plugin_search_filter_change_label', 10, 2);

Hi Patrick

It’s not possible within the UI, but you can use a filter to manually update a fields options (and values):
https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/#filter-input-object

I’ve done a test, and here is the code you would need to affect your mileage field (copy to functions.php in your child theme):

function update_range_field_mileage($input_object, $sfid)
{
	//make sure we affect the '_sfm_mileage' field only
	if($input_object['name']=='_sfm_mileage')
	{
		//udpate this field before rendering
		//all the options are stored in <code>$input_object['options']</code> as an array
		$new_options = array();
		
		//create a new "default" option
		$new_option = new StdClass();
		$new_option->value = "";
		$new_option->label = "KM Stand";
		array_push($new_options, $new_option);
		
		//create a new range option we want to add
		$new_option = new StdClass();
		$new_option->value = "0+49999"; //this is the value that goes in the URL, which affects the query
		$new_option->label = "0 - 49999"; //the label can be anything
		array_push($new_options, $new_option);//create a new range option we want to add
		
		$new_option = new StdClass();
		$new_option->value = "50000+99999"; //this is the value that goes in the URL, which affects the query
		$new_option->label = "50000 - 99999"; //the label can be anything
		array_push($new_options, $new_option);
		
		$new_option = new StdClass();
		$new_option->value = "100000+150000"; //this is the value that goes in the URL, which affects the query
		$new_option->label = "100000 - 150000"; //the label can be anything
		array_push($new_options, $new_option);
		
		
		//now replace the options with our own custom options:
		$input_object['options'] = $new_options;
	}
	
	return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'update_range_field_mileage', 10, 2);

Let me know how you get on.

Hi Yanin

This code should do the trick:

function sf_format_date_labels($input_object, $sfid){

	//change <code>_sfm_date</code> to the name of your field
	if($input_object['name']=='_sfm_date')
	{
		//udpate this field before rendering
		if(!isset($input_object['options']))
		{
			return $input_object;
		}
		
		//now we know there are options we can loop through each one, and change what we need
		foreach($input_object['options'] as $option)
		{
			if($option->value=="")
			{//the option with no value is always the "all items" or unselected state
				//$option->label = "This could be a default label";
			}
			else
			{
				$date = $option->value;
				
				//convert date to YYYY-MM-DD so strtototime doesn't mix up months / days
				$input_date = substr($date, 0, 4) . '-' . substr($date, 4, 2). '-' . substr($date, 6, 2);
				
				//now format the date how we want
				$date_format = "M j, Y";
				$option->label = date($date_format, strtotime($input_date));
			}
		}
	}
	
	return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'sf_format_date_labels', 10, 2);

Things to note:
1) change _sfm_date to the name of your field – you can see the name of your field by checking it in the URL, after performing a search with a date value selected
2) To change the display format, modify the line:

$date_format = "M j, Y";

You can format the date using the normal PHP date parameters: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

Let me know how you get on.

I was able to modify the dropdown filter via a hook but it seems that the dropdown filter is not working even without using the hook in the first place.(return no result)
Do you know why?

fyi this is the function I used.

function sf_input_object_pre_mod($input_object,$sfid){
  if($sfid==151){
if($input_object['name']=='_sfm_property_bedroom'||$input_object['name']=='_sfm_property_bathroom'){
	  $opts = $input_object['options'];
      foreach($opts as $ok=>$ov){
        $input_object['options'][$ok]->label = preg_replace('/ .+/','',$ov->label);
        $input_object['options'][$ok]->value = preg_replace('/\+.+/','+99',$ov->value);
      }
    }
  }
  return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre','sf_input_object_pre_mod',10,2);

Trevor,

Thanks for all your help. I was able to find some code and have adapted it to work the way we need. It’s below incase you need it for anyone else

function filter_function_name($input_object, $sfid) {

        if ($input_object['name'] == '_sfm_attorneys') {

		global $coauthors_plus;
			
		// Update option labels before rendering

			foreach($input_object['options'] as $key => $option) {

						$my_query = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'attorney', 'p' => $option->value));
						while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
							$att_first = types_render_field("att_first", array());
							$att_last = types_render_field("att_last", array());

							$input_object['options'][$key]->label = $att_last . ', ' . $att_first;
				
						endwhile;

	        	}

	        	// Sort options...

	        		$sortArray = array(); 

	        		foreach($input_object['options'] as $option) { 

				    foreach($option as $key => $value) { 

				        if(!isset($sortArray[$key])) { 

				            $sortArray[$key] = array(); 

				        } 

				        $sortArray[$key][] = $value; 

				    }

				}

				// ...by label

	        		$orderby = "label";

				array_multisort($sortArray[$orderby],SORT_ASC,$input_object['options']); 

	}
		
		// Return

			return $input_object;

	}

	add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'filter_function_name', 10, 2);

Trevor,

Thanks for the link. I’ve been able to add a function and it’s now displaying the Attorneys in the correct order but how do I get it to hide the attorneys without a post like it does by default? Right now it’s displaying all attorneys even if there’s no news associated to the attorney,

function sf_edit_author_field_order($input_object, $sfid)
{
	if( $input_object['name'] == '_sfm_attorneys' ) {
        // requery the author list
        $my_query = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'attorney', 'meta_key' => 'wpcf-att_last', 'orderby' => 'meta_value', 'order' => 'ASC', 'showposts' => -1));
		while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
		$att_first = types_render_field("att_first", array());
		$att_last = types_render_field("att_last", array());
		$theid = get_the_ID();
        // go through users and get their user_nicename and display_name
        //foreach( $my_query as $user ) {
            $new_users[] = (object) array(
                'attributes' => array(
                    'class' => 'sf-level-0'
                ),
                'value' => $theid,
                'label' => $att_last . ', ' . $att_first,
                'count' => 1
            );
        endwhile;
        $input_object['options'] = $new_users;
	}
	
	return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'sf_edit_author_field_order', 10, 2);

The Problem: I need to load an author dropdown on the filter with just the Editors

I have a Filter for my site, with several fields, one of them is Author, but the website has more than 15.000 users registered and get a timeout error every time the field is enabled.

I’ve tried this to re write the author field with a more manageable amount of users (only the Editors) but with no luck the idea was to remove all content from _sf_author and replace it with the editors

`
function filter_authors($input_object, $sfid)
{
if (($input_object[‘name’] != ‘_sf_author’) || ($input_object[‘type’] != ‘select’)) {
return $input_object;
}

unset($input_object[‘options’]);
$input_object[‘options’] = array();

// Generate first array option (default)
$first_option = new StdClass();
$first_option->value = ”;
$first_option->label = ‘All Authors’;

//attributes
$first_option->attributes = array(
‘title’ => ‘All Authors’,
);

array_push($input_object[‘options’], $first_option);

//change classes & attributes of the field
$input_object[‘attributes’][‘class’] = ‘user_filter’;
$input_object[‘attributes’][‘title’] = ‘Authors’;

//add/override prefix & postfix to the field
$input_object[‘prefix’] = “Filter by Author”;

//Check if options variable exists
if (!isset($input_object[‘options’])) {
return $input_object;
}

//Create new users array
$args = array(
‘role’ => ‘editor’,
‘order’ => ‘ASC’,
‘orderby’ => ‘display_name’,
);

// Create the WP_User_Query object
$wp_user_query = new WP_User_Query($args);
$authors = $wp_user_query->get_results();
foreach ($authors as $author) {
// get all the user’s data
$author_info = get_userdata($author->ID);
//create new options with user values
$new_option = new StdClass();
$new_option->value = $author_info->user_login;
$new_option->label = $author_info->first_name . ‘ ‘ . $author_info->last_name;

//attributes
$new_option->attributes = array(
‘title’ => $author_info->user_login,
);
array_push($input_object[‘options’], $new_option);
}
return $input_object;
}
// add_filter(‘sf_input_object_pre’, ‘filter_authors’, 10, 2);
`
Using this approach i change a meta field and filled it with the Editors data, but then the post request was send as _sfm_editors and not _sf_author and i couldn’t find a way to replace this request for the one i needed.

Also tried building my own query accessing the search data and using the hook sf_results_url to change the url, but i cannot change the search query with it.

I’m running out of ideas, appreciate your time to check my issue and any new ideas on how to solve it.
