Change imported field values programmatically
How to use the iwp/template/process_field filter to alter the value of an importers template field, this example below restricts it to a specific importer using the importer id, and formats the post_date field into the mysql date format.
<?php
/**
* * Example code to alter the value of an Importer Templates field
* *
* * @param string $value Field value to insert
* * @param stirng $key Field name
* * @param ImportWP\Common\Model\ImporterModel $importer
* * @return string
* */
function iwpe_alter_field_value_example($value, $key, $importer)
{
// restrict filter to specific importer (in this case id 47, change to what you need), comment out if not needed
if ($importer->getId() !== 47) {
return $value;
}
switch ($key) {
case 'post_date':
$value = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime($value));
break;
}
return $value;
}
add_filter('iwp/template/process_field', 'iwpe_alter_field_value_example', 10, 3);
