Add Salient Metaboxs to a CPT

The Salient metaboxs can be added to a custom post type through a filter in your child theme.

  • Step 1: Open your child theme functions.php (salient-child/functions.php)
  • Step 2: Copy the below snippet into the bottom and replace “your_custom_post_type” with the name of your actual post type.

Page Meta Boxes

function salient_child_page_header_post_types($post_types) {
	
	$new_post_types = array(
		'your_custom_post_type'
	);
	$post_types = array_merge($new_post_types, $post_types);
	return $post_types;
}

add_filter('nectar_metabox_post_types_page_header', 'salient_child_page_header_post_types');

Blog Post Meta Boxes

function salient_child_post_header_post_types($post_types) {
	
	$new_post_types = array(
		'your_custom_post_type'
	);
	$post_types = array_merge($new_post_types, $post_types);
	return $post_types;
}

add_filter('nectar_metabox_post_types_post_header', 'salient_child_post_header_post_types');

  • If you wish to get any of the other metaboxes in your custom post type, other filters are available for those as well:

    nectar_metabox_post_types_navigation_transparency
    nectar_metabox_post_types_fullscreen_rows
