Hi,
can I use boilerplate token in custom fields on a boilerplate page? I tried doing it and it doesn’t seem to be working. when I make separate boilerplate pages for each site and use custom fields that hold tokens it works. but when using 1 boilerplate for multiple child sites and having token in the custom fields the tokens don’t display the correct info on the correct sites.
Hi @rachel
When you create a Custom Boilerplate Token on /admin.php?page=Extensions-Boilerplate-Extension&tab=tokens, the values for that token then need to be defined on the Edit page of all relevant Child Sites.
After you do that, you will be able to use those custom tokens when making a bulk Boilerplate post or page.
Please attach screenshots if possible so we can have a better idea of how you are using these tokens.
And can you please post the community system report from your MainWP Dashboard for review? The report is located in your Dashboard under Info → Server, on the top right of the page.
Be sure to use the button like the one below; this button hides all your private information:

Yes my custom boilerplate tokens work but when I put them in a custom field of a boilerplate page and and put that page on two child sites the value of my custom token is the value for site 1 only even when displayed on site 2. If i publish them one at a time on each site then the token value in the custom field works properly. But not if if i select all sites and publish it.

Hey @rachel
Thank you for the screenshots and the detailed explanation.
I was able to reproduce your findings.
Right now, Boilerplate tokens are not officially supported in Custom Fields.
The development team will look into adding support for it in the next release of MainWP Dashboard and Child plugins.
Hey @rachel
We have introduced support for Boilerplate tokens in Custom Fields in version v5.0.3 of the MainWP Dashboard released today.
