Sorry, I was not informed by WordPress.org about your answer. I write to each changelogs, there is actually always everything. So before the update always read the changelogs. Other channels to inform about changes, there are unfortunately not.

Please excuse this! If you think of a better and more privacy-safe solution, feel free to contribute or give feedback. I do this all by myself and am always happy about feedback.

Please stay healthy and have a nice holiday!

Greetings Kevin

Hello!

Thank you for your feedback. You need to activate the tab first. To do this, go back to the settings and check if you have everything active.

Helpful > Settings > Details > General > Disable feedback completely

This option must not be active. It could be that the option is not active and the tab is still not visible. Then just save all options again.

Stay healthy!

Unfortunately not at the moment. Now before Christmas it doesn’t look good, there are many other things. Currently, the feature is also not much in demand, which is why my prioritization is still in the bug fix. Unfortunately, this is not only a small feature, I have to adjust a lot in the backend.

I have it on my list though, which I recently worked through. So it shouldn’t take that long. I can’t tell you a time because I don’t do contract work here. It’s just a hobby and I treat it as such.

I’ll tag you here though, so you’ll know.

The Helpful heading is actually only overwritten when a new heading is inserted in the metabox, directly in the Q&A page. Otherwise the heading is taken from the arguments you defined with heading=””.

Here you can see that the heading is changed if in the metabox directly in the page, an own heading was set:

https://github.com/pixelbart/helpful/blob/master/core/modules/class-frontend.php#L337

And here you can see how Helpful uses the arguments of the shortcode after taking the default values:

https://github.com/pixelbart/helpful/blob/master/core/modules/class-frontend.php#L298

This should work so far. The only important thing is that Helpful does not yet process the instances themselves and you will then always see the heading in the backend. Helpful itself saves the instances anyway, but you don’t see them yet, because I haven’t implemented that yet. I have only in advance already “created” in the background. The output I still have to build and also still think out.

Originally this was not possible at all, with the shortcodes. That came in only later. More about the instances and the current state, you can learn here:

https://github.com/pixelbart/helpful/releases/tag/4.4.51

Since I do everything alone, it always takes quite a long time and I do Helpful only as a hobby, which is why Helpful is open-source and anyone can join if they want and can. Unfortunately I’m usually the only one doing anything here ☺️

/**
 * @param array $args
 * @return array
 */
add_filter('helpful/ajax_get_posts_data/args', function(array $args) {
    $args['post_type'] = 'helpie_faq'; // <-- here
    return $args;
});

I have checked this on 4 pages for me. It works fine, directly in the functions.php. Here in the example I have selected only the post.

In the settings I have selected a completely different. Then only the post are shown to me. With a custom post type I have also tested this. It always works fine.

You may have to check in another place why this is not working. You can use the Query Monitor, but also set WP_DEBUG and WP_DEBUG_LOG to true, in your wp-config.php file. After that, in the debug.log directly in your wp-content/ folder, should put all the info, if there is an error.

Otherwise your post type will be registered differently, or incorrectly. You can still try to put an init in front of it if necessary:

add_action('init', function() {
    /**
     * @param array $args
     * @return array
     */
    add_filter('helpful/ajax_get_posts_data/args', function(array $args) {
        $args['post_type'] = 'helpie_faq'; // <-- here
        return $args;
    });
});

Also with this, it works for me right away, without any problems.

You need to find out what Post Types you are using to do this. Unfortunately, I can’t tell you that. By default Helpful uses “any”, which only addresses all existing post types (from WordPress).

It is important that only those entries are visible on the start page that are also set under “Post Types” in the settings. For example, if you want to see pages, but you have only selected “post”, it will not be shown.

The logs show all saves, even those saved by content that is no longer active.
