Thanks Marcus! I do too LOL 🙂

@Marcus thanks but that didn’t seem to work.

@Jason not a problem. What I want is that Program select to be a taxonomy that can be changed by an admin. Right now I have added a select dropdown. What I don’t want is the taxonomy to be part of the post type in general, just to be associated with the add more group. Here is the entire CPT. Let me know if that helped 🙂

I’m sorry I didn’t explain that well. I do see Grant Name in place of Title if I create new but the imported name is what still comes up as a series of numbers. I think I may have to go and change those in PHPMyAdmin. Thank you!

Ok, that sounds more like what I need. I looked at the links and tried to get this to work. I’m new to WP and some of the docs are a little hard to figure out. Here is my code inside the functions file:

add_filter( 'manage_edit-grantee_columns', 'set_custom_edit_grantee_columns' );
add_action( 'manage_grantee_posts_custom_column' , 'custom_grantee_column', 10, 2 );

function set_custom_edit_grantee_columns($columns) {
    $columns['grantee_name'] = __( 'Grantee Name', 'your_text_domain' );

    return $columns;
}

function custom_grantee_column( $column, $post_id ) {
    switch ( $column ) {

        case 'grantee_name' :
            $terms = get_the_term_list( $post_id , 'grantee_name' , '' , ',' , '' );
            if ( is_string( $terms ) )
                echo $terms;
            else
                _e( 'Unable to get grantee(s)', 'your_text_domain' );
            break;

    }
}

Now in my Grants List it has a column of Grant Name, still has title, but returns “Unable to get grantee(s)”.

I want to do this for both. I was told they don’t want me to play with the data they imported but for data already there and future posts I’d like the “grantee_name” to be the “Title” that shows in the list. Thanks @Jason for that I’ll give it a try your recommendation:

piklist('field', array)
  'type'      => 'text',
  'field'     => 'post_title',
  'scope'     => 'post',
  'label'     => 'Title'
));

Hello, yes I do. What is causing this to appear. It wasn’t there and now seems to be there. Here is my stories.php:

<?php

?>

<?php

  piklist('field', array(

    ,'description' => __('Validation rule set: Upload no more than two files.','story-media')
    ,'options' => array(
      'modal_title' => __('Add File(s)','story-media')
      ,'button' => __('Add','story-media')
    )
  ));

  piklist('field', array(

       ,'firstDay' => '0'
    )
  ));

  piklist('field', array(

Excellent! Thanks Steve this helped!
