    We are developing an iOS App which shall edit only certain custom fields (only 3 or 4) of users listing. For that:
    1) we need to know, how the input of the custom fields are saved in database or which function we could use for that.
    2) we need to understand how we can get the listing ids per user to create a list of listing of one user.

    Some hints for that would be really great!

    Hello

    You can use geodir_save_post_meta() the same way as update_post_meta()

    You would get the users post id’s the same way as you would with any CPT.

    Hi Stiofan,

    thanks for fast answer. That helps! Great to hear, that all listings are posts that are assigned to users.

    So does that mean, that with 

    geodir_get_post_meta

    we can see which fields are mandatory for “save” action?

    That is mainly for updating current post info, are you looking to create new posts? Have you looked at our API plugin? https://github.com/GeoDirectory/geodir_api

    Yes, we looked at the API plugin. But working with an alpha release seems to be some risky and needs a lot of analysing yout code. We would need some information about the REST routes.

    Where could we find informations about your REST routes?
    When could we expect some API documentation?
    When ist Beta API Plugin release expected?

    The Api should be our main focus from next week.

    Thanks,
