Global setting for Socket

Hi,

no, this is not a bug. If you investigate the code in footer.php you’ll notice following lines:

$footer 				= get_post_meta($the_id, 'footer', true);

$footer_widget_setting 	= !empty($footer) ? $footer : avia_get_option('display_widgets_socket');

We first check if a custom post meta value is set and if not we’ll use the default option. Probably you already set/saved the post meta option for all pages and thus the general option won’t take effect.

thought so. I would recommend using the global setting should ignore the individual ones. Logical stuff…

I”m sorry formateins but that’s wrong and your solution is not logical at all. If the “global settings” overwrite the individual post meta settings you can’t use the individual settings anymore because regardless of the configured post meta value the “global settings” will overwrite the individual settings.

However normally the “Default Layout – set in Enfold > Layout & Options” option should always be selected as the default dropdown option and in your case the “Display the footer widgets & socket” value is selected which seems to be a leftover on your server (the first versions of Enfold used the global settings to select the right value in the metabox dropdown). Try to add following code to the end of functions.php to reset all values:

add_action( 'admin_init', 'avia_remove_meta');

function avia_remove_meta()

{

$post_types = array('post','page','portfolio');

$count = 0;



//iterate over each post type

foreach($post_types as $type)

{

//get all posts of a certain type

$the_query = new WP_Query( array('post_type' => $type, 'posts_per_page'=>-1) );



//check if any post were retrieved

if(!empty($the_query->posts))

{

//iterate over each post and check if the post has a gallery key

foreach($the_query->posts as $entry)

{

//since there might be hundreds of posts make sure php doesnt time out

@set_time_limit(45);

$success  = delete_post_meta($entry->ID, 'footer', true);

}



}

}

}

But there’s an “empty value” which will be used as default value – compare wp-contentthemesenfoldconfig-templatebuilderavia-template-builderconfigmeta.php

array(



"slug"  => "layout",

"name"  => "Footer Settings",

"desc"  => "Display the footer widgets?",

"id"    => "footer",

"type"  => "select",

"std"   => "",

"class" => "avia-style",

"subtype" => array(

"Default Layout - set in ".THEMENAME." > Footer" => '',

'Display the footer widgets & socket'=>'all',

'Display only the footer widgets (no socket)'=>'nosocket',

'Display only the socket (no footer widgets)'=>'nofooterwidgets',

'Don't display the socket & footer widgets'=>'nofooterarea'

),

I know that some of the older versions used the global settings to preselect the right value in the metabox dropdown but since Enfold 1.5 or so this is not the case anymore.
