Page template anomaly What do you mean @Chip Bennett? I think I've seen so many people/posts around here having a static page for a custom post type, am I wrong? Why would this not work? Is working for me for the other page, I am getting really confused now. |

Page template anomaly Renaming the page doesn't change a thing, as it can have any name as long as the chosen template is pointing to that page, am I wrong? I've done it anyway and this didn't change a thing. I have also reformatted the Template Name at the top without any changes. |

Page template anomaly Thank you for advices guys. OK, I understand, but I will have 4 pages, every single page will have 3-8 subpages and 2 of these subpages will have posts. Am I still not right thinking of making custom post types for the major sections I will have as is it going to be a lot easier adding pages to the right section? |

Page template anomaly As it will have several pages underneath which are going to be listed as a menu on the left side while in the About section, and I have chosen to use post types so I will have them nicely separated on the left side rather than having to simply create pages and assign then to a category. |

Structure of custom post type / taxonomy? Thank you @David Gard. But how would I display the titles of the taxonomy pages on my sidebar and their corresponding pages edited in the admin? I have page-xxx for all the custom post types I've created. The above code doesn't work for me. |

Metabox doesn't retain values Erm, all what you have said makes sense to me, it's obvious and I understand. But, I have updated the function, added the nonce and permissions checks, updated the whitelist, and the result is the same. I am also thinking this way: it was working on dev.domain.com, using db hhh. After I've copied the exact files (tar.gz, server side) to the root, have updated permalinks and values in db regards the URL, I wasn't able to pick the values from metaboxes anymore. Couldn't be this something else? Or should I get the values differently in my etc-page.php? But it doesn't even show them back in admin. |

Metabox doesn't retain values Is not showing up on refresh and that's why I've assumed that and then, after Stephen's help I've realised the data doesn't get saved.. then, I get the values in meta.php directly: <input type="text" name="_my_meta[title]" value="<?php if(!empty($meta['title'])) echo $meta['title']; ?>"/>, do I have to define $meta in meta.php? |

Metabox doesn't retain values I don't know if it helps, but I have no values in the database with "test1", the string I have used for the latest test. |

Metabox doesn't retain values But if I go back and edit them again, I still get current data: string(0), and that would usually mean that the values are not actually saving, right? I will go and check the database, do a Search for one value.. |

Metabox doesn't retain values Everything looks fine, right?! I've updated all the fields I have: current data:
string(0) ""
sent data:
array(12) {
["title"]=>
string(4) "test"
["body-text"]=>
string(4) "test"
["link"]=>
string(4) "test"
["img01-title"]=>
string(4) "test"
["img01-url"]=>
string(4) "test"
["img01-link"]=>
string(4) "test"
["title-2nd"]=>
string(4) "test"
["body-text-2nd"]=>
string(4) "test"
["link-2nd"]=>
string(4) "test"
["img02-title"]=>
string(4) "test"
["img02-url"]=>
string(4) "test"
["img02-link"]=>
string(4) "test"
}

Metabox doesn't retain values Thank you for all your help. I've removed the concatenator from var_dumps after </pre> for both lines, and then I got this: string(11) "" string(16) "Array"success:. Now, what does it mean? That I have double quotes for the data inside and are not closed, and also on the link one.. that must be, my head is spinning now lol, I am starting to understand it, almost. |

Metabox doesn't retain values Yes @StephenHarris, it doesn't cause issues as it loads, otherwise my php file wouldn't show up in the admin section, right? As for the error, this is the first time I am using wp_die() and wp_die('message') will show me "message" as expected. This line instead: wp_die( '<pre>' . var_export( $post, true ) . '</pre>' ); will show me NULL, if placed before function or in the beggining, but after return, it shows nothing. |
