Uncheck all custom post types

[Luciano Petrosini]

Hello, I am trying to make a personalization of the “Frontend Search Settings options” area in the public part but I can not do it.

Basically I’m trying to put a link that when clicked deactivates all checkboxes at one time (in custom post types), but since these checkboxes are customized and I can not find the script with which this is done or I can not do that remain unchecked as you would with a normal checkbox with jquery.

Is there any way to put a link that deactivates all filters or that this option is disabled by default?

Thank you very much ( Sorry for my english 🙂 )

Hi!

To uncheck all of those options, I would use this script line:

[code]$(‘input[name*=customset]’).removeAttr(‘checked’);[/code]

More specificly
Let’s make a script, which detects a link with the class ‘asp_uncheck_cpt’ and attaches a click event to it, which executes the upper code.

Place the link anywhere you want it, just make sure to add the class ‘asp_uncheck_cpt’ to it:

[html]<a href=’#’ class=’asp_uncheck_cpt’>My link</a>[/html]

…and the script:

[html]jQuery(function($){
$(‘a.asp_uncheck_cpt’).on(‘click’, function(e) {
// Disable default click event
e.preventDefault();
// Stop the event propagation
e.stopPropagation();

// Uncheck all checkboxes in the custom post type section
$(‘input[name*=customset]’).removeAttr(‘checked’);
});
});[/html]

This script needs to be placed into the site footer, for that I recommend this code. Add this custom code to the functions.php in your theme/child theme directory (copy from line 3 only!). Before editing, please make sure to have a full site back-up just in case!

I hope this helps!
