I have just realised we may be getting our wires crossed. I am using the acf/save_post filter. The name of my function is pre_save_post. Should have named my function something better, sorry!
My full code is below:
functions.php
//unzip powerpoint html files before posting form
function pre_save_post( $post_id ) {
error_log('POST ID:' . $post_id);
/*if( $post_id != 'ppt_post' ) { //this stops the code below from working
return $post_id;
}*/
// vars
$title = $_POST['fields']['field_576bb1c1cf241'];
$attachment_id = $_POST['fields']['field_576bb2dfcf247'];
$file_name = basename( get_attached_file( $attachment_id ) );
$file_name_without_zip = preg_replace('/.zip$/', '', $file_name);
$timestamp = time();
if( $post_id == 'ppt_post') { //what should go here to ensure the below only runs on a new post not an update?
//unzip file
require_once(ABSPATH .'/wp-admin/includes/file.php');
WP_Filesystem();
$destination = wp_upload_dir();
$uploads_path = $destination['path'];
$destination_path = $destination['basedir'] . '/powerpoint/' . $file_name_without_zip . '-' . $timestamp;
$zip_file = $uploads_path .'/'. $file_name;
$unzipfile = unzip_file( $zip_file, $destination_path);
//override link to media
update_attached_file( $attachment_id, $destination_path . '/index.html' );
}
// return the new ID
return $post_id;
}
add_filter('acf/save_post' , 'pre_save_post', 1 );
add-files.form.php
<?php
/**
* Template Name: Add Files Form
* The template for displaying front-end submission form to add new files to wordpress media area.
* Uses Advanced Custom Fields plugin
* @package mobile-friendly
*/
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
acf_form_head();
get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php /* The loop */ ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<?php
if(isset($_GET['updated'])){
if($_GET['updated'] == 'true'){
echo '<p style="color:green;font-weight:bold">The file details have been submitted.</p>';
}
}
?>
<?php
acf_form(array(
'id' => 'Add files form',
'post_id' => 'ppt_post',
'field_groups' => array( 7 ),
'submit_value' => 'Add file',
));
?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Hope this clarifies it a bit better.
