Xavier de Ponk We want to implement DW Q&A for a very specific user case, so we need to add various custom fields to the post a question screen, such as a date picker, text fields, some check boxes etc. Not too many, but we need to be able to filter them in the front end using the Facet WP plugin.
In terms of adding the extra fields we usually use a plugin called Advanced Custom Fields, so that is something we could do quite easily as I believe your plugin uses custom post types for the questions.
But we need to allow these fields to be completed when a user asks a question on the front end.
Is this doable?
thierryHi Xavier,
Did you manage to add custom fields? How did you do it?
I’d like to add custom fields to the answer form and display these with the answer on the question page. Your experience might help me (and others)
Thanks a lot in advance for sharing! 🙂
Hopefully,
Thierry
PS: Please note that I am currently trying it with the ACF plugin that actually lets me define the fields and add it to dwqa_answer post_type but it doesnt show in the form neither.
Hi, to add more custom field on the front end, you have to modify the answer submit form, along with the modify of submit question option. It’s not add custom field at the back-end.
If you want you this feature, you can contact me at the live chat channel, i can guide you through this or maybe can provide custom work to help you archive what you need.
