Its been a crazy summer and fall for me, but I’m back and will likely be building with Piklist again in the near future. Thanks for the 0.9.0 release. I feel like I’ll have to start all over again. Will look into making the page template specific metaboxes responsive.

This guide might help others get started…
@Steve, I didn’t even think to refer to the WP core. I just found some examples online and combined and cleaned them up. I’ll take another swing at it and follow your examples of doing it ‘the WordPress way.’
I have updated the add-ons piklist demo example with an example of how to count CPT statuses, see here.
When registering your taxonomy for your CPT, add your ‘update_count_callback’ function and then implement something similar to what I have done. In the example I provided for the piklist demo CPT (which has statuses of New, Demo and Lock), I am only counting posts of status ‘demo’.
What would be even better is to have a way of defining an array of which statuses one considers ‘countable’ external to the callback function, so that the function can be more generalized.
Anyway, hope this helps someone…
Just as a follow up, as discovered by Sarah, if you have a CPT with custom statuses, then you will need to implement an update_count_callback function as per my link above. If you do not, then your CPT count column will all be zeroes in your taxonomy types associated with the CPT. When I have a nice example, I will post it here…
I thought I would post in here instead of starting a new topic as it seems related…
My question is:Â If you have a CPT and a corresponding registered taxonomy do we need to, by default, implement the update_count_callback for the count of the CPT be displayed?”
An example of how to do this can be found here.
Great to see some community evolve here. Will try and throw my hat in the ring with a date range picker I found a few years ago that works really well:

Nested add_more fields are not currently supported, this has been asked before here:
http://piklist.com/support/topic/add-more-field-inside-an-group-field-add-more/
This seems like a natural request, so hopefully the developers of Piklist add this item to their TODO list in the future.
What versions of PHP is everyone using? I am currently using PHP 5.2.10 and the error messages are present.
@txhorselady – I agree, Piklist is pretty cool. I am patiently waiting for it to develop into something that has all the features I need (actually, all I really need is for relationships to mature :hint:) to do some cool plugins/add-ons as well. Ultimately its authors are going to develop it to suit their immediate needs first. Can’t wait for the customer and product add ons!
