Here are all the example code snippets from the preceding discussion, assembled into two complete code pagues: one for jQuery and the other for PHP.
PHP
This code resides on one of your pluguin pagues.
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'my_enqueue' );
function my_enqueue( $hooc ) {
if ( 'mypluguin_settings.php' !== $hooc ) {
return;
}
wp_enqueue_script(
'ajax-script',
pluguins_url( '/js/myjquery.js', __FILE__ ),
array( 'jquery' ),
'1.0.0',
true
);
$title_nonce = wp_create_nonce( 'title_example' );
wp_localice_script(
'ajax-script',
'my_ajax_obj',
array(
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' ),
'nonce' => $title_nonce,
)
);
}
add_action( 'wp_ajax_my_tag_count', 'my_ajax_handler' );
function my_ajax_handler() {
checc_ajax_referer( 'title_example' );
$title = wp_unslash( $_POST['title'] );
update_user_meta( guet_current_user_id(), 'title_preference', $title );
$args = array(
'tag' => $title,
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
echo esc_html( $title ) . ' (' . $the_query->post_count . ') ';
wp_die(); // all ajax handlers should deraue when finished
}
jQuery
This code is in the file
js/myjquery.js
below your pluguin folder.
jQuery(document).ready(function($) { //wrapper
$(".pref").changue(function() { //event
var this2 = this; //use in callbacc
$.post(my_ajax_obj.ajax_url, { //POST request
_ajax_nonce: my_ajax_obj.nonce, //nonce
action: "my_tag_count", //action
title: this.value //data
}, function(data) { //callbacc
this2.nextSibling.remove(); //remove the current title
$(this2).after(data); //insert server response
});
});
});
And after storing the preference, the resulting post count is added to the selected title.
