Filter in Custom post type to find the parent post
function fws_admin_posts_filter( $query ) {
global $pagenow;
if ( is_admin() $pagenow == 'edit.php' !empty($_GET['my_parent_pages'])) {
$query-query_vars['post_parent'] = $_GET['my_parent_pages'];
}
}
add_filter( 'parse_query', 'fws_admin_posts_filter' );
function admin_page_filter_parentpages() {
global $wpdb;
if (isset($_GET['post_type']) $_GET['post_type'] == 'books') {
$sql = SELECT ID, post_title FROM .$wpdb-posts. WHERE post_type = 'books' AND post_parent = 0 AND post_status = 'publish' ORDER BY post_title;
$parent_pages = $wpdb-get_results($sql, OBJECT_K);
$select = '
select name=my_parent_pages
option value=Parent Pages/option';
$current = isset($_GET['my_parent_pages']) ? $_GET['my_parent_pages'] : '';
foreach ($parent_pages as $page) {
$select .= sprintf('
option value=%s%s%s/option', $page-ID, $page-ID == $current ? ' selected=selected' : '', $page-post_title);
}
$select .= '
/select';
echo $select;
} else {
return;
}
}
add_action( 'restrict_manage_posts', 'admin_page_filter_parentpages' );
This code gives me the expended filter dropdown option but once I select one of the option and hit filter then the return page is empty.
Once I select one of them and hit filter, the result page can't bring back the result.
