Hey there!

We are currently facing the problem that the term fields of our custom tags are not being broadcasted.These fields are added with
add_action( ‘OUR_POSTTYPE_add_form_fields’, ‘OUR_FUNCTION’ );

Do you have a solution for this? Thank you – best regards 😀

If the term field data is stored in the termmeta, it should all be copied over when the term itself is synced (during a Broadcast).

Could you send me a BC debug text of a post that uses the term(s) in question?

Email it to edward@plainviewplugins.com

ahhh ok we get it now – we updated our post again and look, the values have been updated! (:

But then we would now like to take the question a little further: is there a way for us to run the broadcast when the term field is changed and saved? So when we update the term fields, they get broadcasted?

There are some ways that I can think of straight off, both requiring custom code to detect a taxonomy term change:

1. Use the BC API to broadcast a post that contains the changed taxonomy.

2. Use the Sync Taxonomies add-on, which allows you to just sync taxonomies programmatically (see notes).

Hi!
We bought the “Utilities Pack” extension and adapted and integrated the code from here: https://broadcast.plainviewplugins.com/snippet/sync-taxonomies-programmatically/ into our plugin.
It now works as we expect!

Thank you for the quick and good help!
