Hi, not sure if this is a question or suggestion but is there a ‘code recipe’ for accessing field sets not associated with a post/page/type – ie Site Field Sets? That would be very helpful.
In particular, I’m trying to loop through a multi-item field set in the Site Field Sets. I think the loop is working correctly, but it’s returning two blank records instead of the images:
This code is in my footer.php file: http://pastebin.com/yjX6z4Vk
My Site Field Set is set up like htis:
footer_icons
-> logo_image
-> logo_link
-> hover_text
Thanks for your help!

Okay, I’ve made a bit of progress. Using this code within the foreach loop, I can get an img tag to spit out:
echo $wf->site->field(“footer_icons.logo_image”);
BUT, the path to the image is incorrect – it doesn’t account for me working on a Windows localhost/WAMP installation and uses backslashes instead of forward slashes for the latter half of the URL:
http://localhost/webber/wp/wp-content/mp/uploads%5Csite%5Cimages%5Clogo-ut-austin.v1.gif
Any ideas? Thank you!
(PS I have updated to the latest beta to see if that fixed it but nothing changed.)

You’re quite right about the site code, that’s exactly how you do it 🙂
Sorry about the image path thing – will check this in Windows again, and let you know when a fix is available.

Actually, you don’t have to call “field” strictly in your code. Can also do:
$wf->site->footer_icons->logo_image

Cool, thanks! I’ll look for the update – it’s making developing the site pretty tough not to have that working. 🙂

Oh – and sorry – I’m still not getting how this should work, even if the paths were correct. See this pastebin for my updated code:
http://pastebin.com/BdFPPGNi
When I use this, it doesn’t loop correctly; it just outputs the first submitted entry multiple times. I tried using the code from example #4 on this page: https://www.masterpressplugin.com/docs/developer/recipes/field-sets-and-fields (see my original Pastebin above) but that didn’t work either. What am I missing?
Thanks!
Michelle

Hey Michelle,
The code for the loop is slightly wrong. By reaccessing $wf->site->footer_logos, you’re actually accessing only the first item in that set each time. This is by design – we decided that if you access a field in a multi-item set like that, it would access the field from the first record in the set, which can be handy at times.
You need to use the $footer_logo loop variable each time, so your code should look something like this:

Hope that helps.
I still haven’t had a chance to check the Windows issue, but will look at it soon. Sorry!

Thanks so much Travis! That (+ the WAMP path fix) works great. Whew! 🙂
