Usage
A Container is a group of custom fields and display options. Containers are displayed on different parts of the backend, according to their type and display options.
By default, all containers are visible on all entities based on their type (posts for post_meta, terms for term_meta etc.) and are editable by all users who can access the related edit screen.
To create a new container you must specify a type and a title:
use Carbon_Fields\Container;
use Carbon_Fields\Field;
Container::make( 'post_meta', 'Custom Data' )
->where( 'post_type', '=', 'page' )
->add_fields( array(
Field::make( 'map', 'crb_location' )
->set_position( 37.423156, -122.084917, 14 ),
Field::make( 'sidebar', 'crb_custom_sidebar' ),
Field::make( 'image', 'crb_photo' ),
));To create a new Container, you just use the Container::make( $type, $title ) method, where:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
$type |
Identifier of the container type (accepted values are post_meta, term_meta, user_meta, comment_meta, nav_menu_item and theme_options). |
$title |
Title of the container. |
Alternatively, you can pass an id for the container using Container::make( $type, $id, $title ), where:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
$type |
Identifier of the container type (accepted values are post_meta, term_meta, user_meta, comment_meta, nav_menu_item and theme_options). |
$id |
Unique id of the container. Automatically prefixed with carbon_fields_container_ |
$title |
Title of the container. |
