    Hello,

    I wasn’t sure where to post this so sorry if I am in the wrong place.

    I have been creating Custom Fields for CPT’s and have what looks like a formatting problem. When I create a custom field that is check boxes the list of check boxes is not lined up correctly – it is right under the front end title instead of indented to the right (see attached screen shot).

    I am using X-theme with the Renew stack.

    Hi,

    can you please provide a link? Without seeing the website in action we can’t provide css to fix it.

    Thx

    Hi,

    I can’t find any advance search dropdown on any of your CPT.

    Please, please, please, when we ask for a link, always provide the link to the page you took a screenshot from. It will save us both precious time and will avoid situations like this.

    That spreadsheet isn’t good for uploading. There are several column missing.

    post_type being one of them.

    You should only use open office to open and edit the sample file that should be kept as a CSV file.

    Let us know,

    Thx

    Hi,

    for the CSV you can’t reorder the fields like that. You can only add custom fields at the end after images. But the default file headings can’t be changed.

    In addition you have far too many tags. Your database have a charachter limit and that is over that limit.

    I’ve tried uploading our sample file adding your CPT name and it worked fine.

    For the css issues :

    
    
    input.gd-checkbox {
        margin: 0 5px;
    }
    
    .geodir_form_row ul.gd_multi_choice {
        margin-left: 0;
        width: 67%;
    }
    
    .geodir_form_row ul.gd_multi_choice input {
        margin: 0 5px 0 0;
    }

    Thx

    @paolo,

    Thank you! So you are saying that in the spreadsheet I have to:

    1.put the custom fields at the end & keep the field order identical to the sample data spreadsheet.

    2.to delete some tags to meet the character limit

    Is there a character limit for a textarea field for example post_content?

    I am a bit on confused what you mean about not changing the default file headings can you explain? I do not believe that I have done this. I have stayed with all the default file heading names (as far as I know) – or I have misunderstood what default file heading are.

    The CSS fixes the spacing problem with the check box list and pacing in the button fields, thank you!

    I will fix the order of the spreadsheet fields, cross my finger and try to upload. I let you know 😉

    Cheers
    Stacey

    Hi Again,

    Yes for point 1 and 2.
    Point 3, no there is no chars limit on post description.

    With ” not changing the default file headings ” I ment that you can’t change the order of them.

    Let us know,

    Thx
