      I’m working on an e-commerce site using WooCommerce, and I have a situation where I’d like a metabox (not just a single field) to show up only on a Product post type page wherein the existing Product is a Grouped Product type. Now I know how to check for this, but not how to show/hide the metabox.

      Would this be an occasion to use the piklist_add_meta_box filter? I could add a Product Type: Grouped to the comment data and check for that? I’ll try that, but if there’s another/better way I’d be interested to know what it is!

      Thanks! 🙂

      Hmm.. apparently the $data parameter doesn’t hold unsupported comment data. Perhaps it’d be useful to to support a “custom” line, or else permit extra comment data.

      @jason– We’re thinking about expanding this. Stay tuned!

      In the next version of Piklist you will be able to do this with the piklist_get_file_data filter:

      EXAMPLE:
      Allow Piklist to read “User ID” in comment block

      add_filter('piklist_get_file_data', 'allow_user_id', 10, 2);
function allow_user_id($data, $type)
{
  // If not a User section than bail
  if($type != 'users')
  {
    return $data;
  }

  // Allow the comment block to read the "User ID" attribute.
  $data['user_id'] = 'User ID';

  return $data;
}
