Virtual field type

Use the Virtual field type to define a virtual field.

Supported virtual field types

oik-fields provides two virtual fields which you can use with the fields= parameter for shortcodes that supports it.
NameTitleNotes
file_sizeFile sizeDisplays the file size in bytes of an attachment
dimensionsDimensionsDisplays the width and height of an attached image

Sample code

In this example, taken from oik-shortcodes we create a virtual field called _oik_sc_the_title_cb which is a checkbox indicating whether or not a shortcode will be expanded during the_title filter processing.

  $the_title_args = array( "#callback" => "bw_get_shortcode_expands_in_titles"
                         , "#parms" => "_oik_sc_code" 
                         , "#plugin" => "oik"
                         , "#file" => "shortcodes/oik-codes.php"
                         , "#form" => false
                         , "#hint" => "virtual field"
                         ); 
  bw_register_field( "_oik_sc_the_title_cb", "virtual", "Expands in 'the_title'?", $the_title_args );
  bw_register_field_for_object_type( "_oik_sc_the_title_cb", "oik_shortcodes" );
