Quick Edit

The quick_edit feature allows you to add custom fields to the Quick Edit screen of your Custom Post Type entries in the administration list.

When enabled, the framework will:

• Add your custom fields to the Quick Edit form
• Populate the fields with the current values when editing
• Save the updated values when the Quick Edit form is submitted

Configuration

The quick_edit feature accepts an array where each key is a meta key and values define the field display. Each field can have:

• title - Label displayed in the Quick Edit form (defaults to the capitalized meta key)
• column_name - The admin column name to read the value from (defaults to the meta key)

You must also define a corresponding admin_cols entry so the value is available in the list table.

Example

return [
    'active'   => true,
    'type'     => 'cpt',
    'name'     => 'book',
    'features' => [
        'quick_edit'    => [
            'publisher' => [
                'title' => __( 'Publisher', 'my-plugin' ),
            ],
        ],
        'admin_cols'    => [
            'publisher' => [
                'title'     => __( 'Publisher', 'my-plugin' ),
                'meta_key'  => 'publisher',
            ],
        ],
    ],
];

In this example, a "Publisher" field will appear in the Quick Edit form and be saved as post meta with the key publisher.
