Morning!
I have a call in my functions.php file to include a custom meta-box php file in my theme's directory called: /metaboxes/home-meta.php
The code is as follows for the call:
add_action( 'add_meta_boxes_page','load_home_meta' );
function load_home_meta() {
$post_id = $_GET['post'] ? $_GET['post'] : $_POST['post_ID'] ;
if($post_id == '104'){
include( get_template_directory() . '/metaboxes/home-meta.php' );
}
}
The include is now working (had an add_meta_boxes function wrapped around my metaboxes within the home-meta.php file below (updated code)).
However, I'm getting errors in each metabox siting the first case within the switch for the callback functions. An example error is:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /Users/[my_mac]/Sites/[site_dir]/wp-content/themes/[site_theme]/metaboxes/home-meta.php on line 224
The home-meta.php code is:
<?php

home-meta.php, can you create a very simpleadd_meta_box()call, and in the callback, just output someHELLO WORLDtext?
