Add a meta field in the Sponsor CPT for Twitter handle

[andreamiddleton]

It would be a nice convenience for organizers if we had a field for a sponsor's twitter handle, so it’s easier to tweet a thank you. This would be particularly helpful in the case of global sponsors, but I could see a use case for local sponsors as well. It would not need to be a required field.

Update: the Twitter Handle field has been added for the Sponsor CPT. A similar field still needs to be added to the multi-event-sponsor plugin, though. See #3.

HI @iandunn

I've added Twitter Handle: meta field in Sponsor CPT. I've attached a patch. 2383.diff

Please check and let me know if it's fine.

Thanks,

That looks good, thanks!

Eventually we'll also want to add a corresponding field to the multi-event-sponsors plugin, and copy the value from those global sponsors to the wcpt sponsor posts when new sites get created. 2383.diff​ can be committed without that, though.

We've got a backlog of patches to review and commit, but I've added this one to the list. Hoping to find some time soonish.

to be added.

Hi @coreymckrill

I've also made changes in wcpt plugin to copy value of Twitter Handle: meta field from global sponsors to local sponsors on site clone as @iandunn suggested. But I'm not able to test this feature in my local environment.

I've attached patch. 2383.2.diff
