Hey guys,
I am building a dashboard for our employees to track open files. I created a custom post type called FILES, and about 20 metaboxes for this post type. When the user is logged in, I would like to display all of the FILES they have created or are working on and display the metabox results for each FILE in a table.
I have the table and header row outside of the Loop, then the variables and data rows inside the Loop, then the closing table tags outside the loop, like so:
Here is my Loop:
$author_args = array(
'author_name' => $current_user->display_name,
'post_status' => 'publish',
'post_type' => 'files'
);
$author_query = new WP_Query($author_args);
// display results from $author_query
if ( $author_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $author_query->have_posts() ) : $author_query->the_post();
Then I call my variables and have the inside of the table setup:
<tr>
<td class="text-left first-col" rowspan="3">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink(); ?>" ><?php the_title(); ?></a>
Then I end the Loop, and close the Table:
<?php endwhile; else :
echo 'No Files found';
endif; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
</tbody>
</table>
I am getting a jumbled mess in the Table if there are blank metaboxes. I am not familiar enough with using the foreach query but am I on the right track?
