Hi everyone, bit of a long shot but is anyone available for a few minutes - trying to work out how to do an AJAX request in WordPress but it's frying my brain.
i'm a wordpress n00b but have been working with it for the past week and a bit, I will let you know what I have
ok, so I have a page, it uses query_posts to get the latest 4 posts for a particular user, underneath, I have a 'load more' button where, once clicked, I'd like to load 4 more posts.
outside that loop in the same script I have my get_posts function which is some jquery that sends the data I need to admin-ajax.php, and after the function I have my action hooks:
then in functions.php i have my load-mroe function which just does the same query and loop as in my initial page but with a larger post count and the hooks there are:
add_action('wp_ajax_addCustomer', 'load_more'); add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_addCustomer', 'load_more'); // not really needed
but I'm confused as to whether my first function, get_posts should be in functions.php and not in my plugin, and if so, how to call that function as I don't quite understand how it works, I think i'm close to solving it but obviously not close enough!
almost, just realised I had my jquery in a function when I don't think it should be, I'm getting the alert on success now but not getting the data I need
how does wordpress know when I send an ajax request to admin-ajax.php, what function I want to use?
just understood what you meant by action, never used it in my ajax requests before, added in action: 'loadMore', but still getting a 0 (even after putting in `die()' in the function that's called
java is just horrendously inconsistent and all over the place when it comes to their browser plugins or even their version distribution. Last I checked Oracle ran multiple java main sites, each of which advertised multiple versions of Java as the latest, ranging from Java 7 to 6
and their updater, aside from requiring admin privs to simply ask a server what the latest version is, always insists there's a new version, attempts to download it, only to say you're upto date afterall
Hi I am in the process of creating a website for an importer who wants to showcase his products. There are over 1,500 products and they also need to be categorised by brand.
At this point for this client I only need to display a catalogue with no options for actual purchasing, but he wants to be...
most people just connect on linkedin which doesnt help you much at all, and a lot of people just hook up their twitter so it's a glorified twitter proxy for some
A friend of mine got poached from one startup to another from their, high paying job. That's the only success story I know of. No self promotion either.
lol.. tweet-circle-jerk?
I have an account there but never got around to using it... The site is a design travesty
oneday you say hello Alex, he doesn't respond. "Sorry my name's James". Later you need help, he's leaving and he has your phone but doesn't realise it, you need it to get home. You shout 'James'. His name is now Warren
In short YES, they could have. As anything else could have been implemented as custom post type and/or custom taxonomy.
But WordPress is a grown system - now 9 years old - and things are moving slowly to keep most stuff backwards compatible.
In short, with WP 3.5, the Links Manager will be move...
core has bug, no one cares for two years. enter WPSE - post it here, upvote, put a bounty... people are fighting to provide best solution. test, commit to core.
Can you legally SELL a WordPress plugin, created by yourself, if you use ANY 3rd party code at all ANYWHERE in your plugin? Does it need to be 100% your own code? No utilizing 3rd party jQuery plugins to beef up a plugin, correct?
@NoelTock I will probably be wrapping up at work next week, then will be dealing with paperwork for wpcs and burning through my long neglected projects :)
@amit Plain code formatting is okay if it is necessary for readability. If you change nothing else it will probably rejected. See Fix all problems in one edit. :)
@Wyck In case you read this: Add "Metoffice UK" to your list of services. They state that they can't provide answers to support questions before 28(!) days. But they answer them in 28 minutes - just a perfect experience so far.
why get_posts() messing with main query? eljamesbooks.net Four CPT on accordion i am getting using get_post() and used while loop on bottom of the page but it just getting the CPT again.. any idea?
Is it possible to remove the "Add new taxonomy_name" link from a custom taxonomy UI on a CPT add post screen? -- I don't know if I worded that the best.
As per le comment.
function remove_artist_meta() {
remove_meta_box( '{taxonomy name}', 'post', 'side' );
}
add_action( 'admin_menu' , 'remove_artist_meta' );
The Admin menu has been always difficult to deal with, some help here would ne nice:http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12718

The problem is, that we don't know how to handle it. Adding another argument?
@MichaelEcklund Intercept on add_meta_boxes, search through the array, get the callback, copy/paste it and replace it with your own. Or just hide it with css.
@MichaelEcklund Callback for non-hierarchical custom taxonomies is post_tags_meta_box and for hierarchical it's post_categories_meta_box.
@MichaelEcklund MUCH simpler than you've thought. This just appears, when the user: if ( current_user_can($tax->cap->edit_terms) ). So just deny the access to the edit_terms-cap for those roles, that shouldn' get it.
@MichaelEcklund RULE #1 First, always search in core code. How-to, the easy way: Go with FireBug or some other dev tool into the source and find the surrounding #ID of the wrapping element. Than do a cross file search and BOOM, you know where to start hunting. :)
@kaiser seen recent story how man got high caliber rifle shipped to him instead of new tv? there probably was similar question in root of that story :)
@amit Currently trying to move everything to self dropbox hosted git. But so far most of my stuff is in private repos on Bitbucket and the freely available ones on GitHub.
