Hi,
I am looking for a way to create a dynamic News page:
Clicking on News will bring you to the latest Newsitem and on the right you will find all other newsitems in a list for that same year.
I can do that with widgets and Page Builder. But I need to convert 700 of those!
I would like to know what is the easiest way to convert those 700 posts (imported with the RSS import) to a clone of a post I have made with Page Builder?
I have database access and I have no problem using MySQL and doing updates with a script. I just don’t know what or where to look.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers Marcel
Hi Marcel,
Unfortunately, this isn’t possible without a fair amount of custom coding. This is beyond the scope of what we can help you with on the forums, but you could hire a developer to help you with this. We highly recommend using Codeable.
I’m sorry I couldn’t be of help. :(
Thanks Alex,
I happen to be a developer myself. So I will dive into it.
Maybe someone here would know how the Page builder plugin stores its info in the DB for a post, so I could convert the other ones by using an example record.
Anyone?
Hi Tegenligger,
It’s stored as serialized data in a post meta field called panels_data. This means you’ll likely have to use PHP to do this.
Thanks Alex.
That was the information I was looking for. Awesome.
