Can I move values from third-party custom field to Newspaper?

Posted in: Newspaper

I’ve been using Advanced Custom Fields for a long time and one of the fields is a “subtitle”. Now I’m trying to rely as most as possible on Newspaper features, so I would need to copy all posts (almost one thousand) “subtitle” values to td_subtitle.

I was trying to use SQL, but if I’m not wrong, seems like td_subtitle field is inside an array that is a meta_key of td_post_theme_settings – and I can’t find a way to SQL deal with arrays.

Is there a way to achieve it? Move all my old subtitle values to the Newspaper “td_subtitle” field?

Thank you very much.

Hello!

Unfortunately, this will require custom work with custom code which is not covered by the support team.

Thank you!

In fact, nothing is covered for me since I don’t have personal support anymore for a long time (since 2016 or so).

But if any user knows how to do it and are up to share, it would be appreciated anyway. I’ve been checking my database and the subtitles are stored into arrays in the td_post_theme_settings meta_key, what is problem for SQL. Seems like some update_post_meta solution is needed.

Thank you.
