Introduction

info

Premium feature! This feature is available in the addon to the premium extension.

With the Dataverse Integration Fields Binding plugin available in the Addons, you can work with custom fields, allowing you to display any text before displaying the field value and format the field value.

To use this plugin, follow the steps below:

Navigate to Bindings -> Fields Binding in the Dataverse Admin Area:

Here, you can set pre-rendering Twig code that will execute before rendering Twig expression substitution. Use this to retrieve data, define variables, and more.

Create or Add Fields:

Click Create field to create a new custom field, then click Add field to choose the custom field to display.

Choose a Table:

Add a table from which to retrieve data.

Click Save
Return to the WordPress Admin Area and create a page.
Enable Custom Fields:

Click Preferences, then open the Panel settings. Add extra areas to the editor by choosing the Custom fields option. Click Enable & Reload to see the Custom fields section.

Select and Add Custom Fields:

At the bottom of the page, select the custom field(s) created in the Dataverse Admin Area and click Add Custom Field. Use the following example to display the field on the page:

{{ getMeta("custom_field_name")}}<br>

Save and publish the page.
Add the output of the meta field to your template:

add_filter('integration-cds/twig/functions', function ($functionsArray) {    
    $functionsArray['getMeta'] = new Twig\TwigFunction('getMeta', function ($metaName) { 
        return get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), $metaName);    });    
        return $functionsArray;}, 10, 5);

Configure Binding

Go to the pages list, find the page you created, and click Configure Binding to choose the table to bind and how to bind the post.

Additionally, the following options can replace a field:

Twig Expression: Type a Twig expression to display it as the field value.
Column: Choose the column logical name from the drop-down.
Twig Template: Choose the Twig template, which can be found under Templates -> Twig Templates.
Formatted Column: Choose the column logical name from the drop-down.

note

The selected table in the Configure Binding item must match the table for this custom field in the Dataverse Admin Area.
