Q: Winter Bash 2014 Secret Hats

So far, I've unlocked one of the secret hats. I'm wondering what other secret hats are out there and how to earn them?

Oh, nice! The admin media screen is actually a JavaScript template! Undocumented. Again.

<option value="file" <# if ( 'file' == wp.media.galleryDefaults.link ) { #>selected="selected"<# } #>>
	<?php esc_attr_e('Media File'); ?>
</option>

~/wp-admin/media-template.php ...

Rarst

what is that I don't even :)

kaiser

Maybe it's drunk Matt sleeping away on his keyboard with auto commit enabled. :)

I tried to find out how the "Media Library" toolbar is built. 15mins later: Not a single clue. Giving up.

who here has good/alright angular js experience?

I could do with a chat to ask a load of general questions

I've no codebase to debug so it's all theory

Sisir

@kaiser I think.. I worked with it for a week

lkraav

heh, i'm also looking into angular. a conversion rate optimization client of mine has their web shop on angular-based e-commerce platform

trying to figure out how to hook into some notifications about when stuff has happened on the page

Programming is easy like riding a bike. Except the bike is on fire and you're on fire and everything is on fire and you're actually in hell

I don't know how to ride a bike, that explains things

how that?

how what?

neither do I

so, you feel like you are in heaven?

kaiser

how is it possible that you can't ride a bike?

Tom J Nowell

6:01 PM

my first bike required all my effort to push forward due to rust

my second bike was too big for me

when I'd grown big enough to actually ride it, it was rusted and covered in cobwebs

so I never learned ( I never had the need either )

kaiser

You must have had nice parents. Learning to ride a bike is a cruel and painful thing and normally parents don't stop until you learned it.

Tom J Nowell

my sisters learnt to ride bikes

kaiser

I wonder why your dad didn't just learn you how to use WD40 :)

Q: Rendering the uploaded file in a wp.media object

I have seen this question asked a few times on SO and I don't see any responses. I have a wp.media object (upload dialog), that I am using in to store an upload to a post as a meta element. It works fine, except the ul.attachments frame is not refreshing upon upload, see the screenshot I have...
