The Goal: I need a fully dynamic workflow where a form field retrieves a Meta Field value from a CPT, using a Post ID that is generated in real-time within the same form.
The Setup:
Form Context: Editing a "Match" post (ID 358).
Source Field (squadra_casa_id): This field is populated dynamically via a Preset (Relation: Teams -> Match). For example, it gets the ID 116.
Target Field (partite_casa): This field must automatically fetch and display the meta field partite_giocate belonging to the ID found in squadra_casa_id.
In the Field Updater settings, I tried using the syntax query_id|meta_key, but I am unsure if this is correct when the Query Builder is already filtered by a JFB Macro. I need confirmation on the correct way to map the specific meta field value into the target field
The Core Requirement (Full Dynamicity): The solution must not rely on static IDs. The system must:
Read the ID from squadra_casa_id (which changes for every Match post).
Trigger a background request (via Query Builder or similar).
Return the specific meta value for that specific ID.
Technical Block: I have installed the Field Updater add-on and set up a Query Builder using the JFB Update Field macro as a filter. However, the "Target Field" does not seem to update its value dynamically when the "Source Field" receives the ID from the Preset.
I am looking for a reliable way to connect these components without hardcoding IDs. Thank you for your help.
