Hello,
I’m new to Piklist, working on a simple plugin that creates a custom post with a couple of custom admin fields. An answer to this field determines whether another field appears on a public comment form.

Admin side
Custom post type: Question, using the title field to write the question.
Custom admin only field: “response_type” (radio box with a few options)

Public comment form field: “response” (whether it’s yes or no, a rating, etc should be determined by the custom field in Question).

When I have conditional fields appear in the same file, they work as expected. In the case above, the response_type is in the metabox file with other Question related fields and only appears in admin. The conditional field appears in a separate comment_form-metabox.php file and when they are apart, they don’t work.

I found the post at the link below and thought the solution was adding scope to the conditions array and tried numerous scope combinations.

Example appears in question-metabox.php

piklist('field', array(
	'type' => 'radio',
	'field' => 'response_type',
	'label' => 'Response Type',
	'help' => 'This is help text.',
	'scope' => 'post_meta',
	'choices' => array(
		'yn' => 'Yes or No',
		'ad' => 'Agree or Disagree',
		'Rating1toX' => 'Rating: 1 to X',
		'RatingXto0toX' => 'Rating: -X to 0 to X'
	),
	'value' => 'yn',
	'required'   => true
));

Example appears in public facing comment_form_metabox.php

piklist('field', array(
		'type' => 'radio',
		'field' => 'response',
		'label' => 'Response',
		'scope' => 'comment_meta',
		'list' => false,
		'choices' => array(
			'Yes' => 'Yes',
			'No' => 'No'
		),
		'conditions' => array(
   			array(
   			'scope' => 'post_meta',
    		'field' => 'response_type',
    		'value' => 'yn'
   			))
   		));

Hopefully, it’s easily fixed. I don’t discount the possibility I’ve misunderstood something and/or have been staring at this too long to see the obvious.

Many thanks,
Morgan
