I have created custom metafields like the following and it was working fine. I want to show the metafield only when an particular page template is used. but it was not working.
class contactdetailsMetabox {
private $screen = array(
'page',
);
private $meta_fields = array(
array(
'label' => 'Business Title',
'id' => 'business-title',
'default' => 'Business Title',
'type' => 'text',
),
array(
'label' => 'Business Logo',
'id' => 'business-logo',
'type' => 'media',
),
array(
'label' => 'Street Address',
'id' => 'street-address',
'type' => 'wysiwyg',
),
array(
'label' => 'Postal code',
'id' => 'postal-code',
'type' => 'text',
),
array(
'label' => 'Address Locality',
'id' => 'address-locality',
'type' => 'text',
),
array(
'label' => 'Business Phone No',
'id' => 'business-phone',
'type' => 'text',
),
array(
'label' => 'Business Mobile',
'id' => 'business-mobile',
'type' => 'tel',
),
array(
'label' => 'Business Email',
'id' => 'business-email',
'type' => 'email',
),
array(
'label' => 'Business Website',
'id' => 'business-website',
'type' => 'url',
),
array(
'label' => 'Latitude',
'id' => 'map-latitude',
'type' => 'text',
),
array(
'label' => 'Longitude',
'id' => 'map-longitude',
'type' => 'text',
),
array(
'label' => 'Zoom Level',
'id' => 'zoom-level',
'type' => 'text',
),
);

The above code is for adding custom fields
What i have tried is
function remove_custom_meta_box() {
global $post;
if(!empty($post))
{
$pageTemplate = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_wp_page_template', true);
if($pageTemplate == 'templates/contact-us.php' )
{
remove_meta_box( 'contactdetails' , 'page' , 'advanced' );
}
}
}
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'remove_custom_meta_box' );
For testing my code i tried to remove it from all page its also not working
function remove_custom_meta_box() {
remove_meta_box( 'contactdetails' , 'page' , 'advanced' );
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'remove_custom_meta_box' );
admin_menu
might fire too early, esp when meta boxes are registered via plugin, trydo_meta_boxes
. You could just add it conditionally, not needing to remove it.
