Hi,
I have setup a custom taxonomy for images and I am trying to display the taxonomy in the ACF Gallery side panel so that users can easily update the terms when editing a post Gallery.
So I have a couple questions about this and how to make it work.
Q1.
I have managed to get the Image’s Terms to display in the side panel but I had to edit the plugin files. Is there a way to do this and still keep the plugin update safe.
Here is how I edited the gallery.php file:
This is in the render_attachment function
// Image terms
$terms = get_terms(array(
'taxonomy' => 'image_cat',
'hide_empty' => false,
));
// Choices Array
$term_choices = array();
foreach($terms as $term) {
$term_choices[$term->slug] = __($term->name, 'acf');
}
// Render the Options
acf_render_field_wrap(array(
'name' => 'terms',
'prefix' => $prefix,
'type' => 'checkbox',
'label' => __('Categories', 'acf'),
'value' => $attachment['terms'], // Data from wp_prepare_attachment_for_js
'choices' => $term_choices, // All choices
), 'tr');
And here I have added a filter to wp_prepare_attachment_for_js to add the terms
function ggstyle_add_cats_to_prepare_attachment_for_js($response, $attachment, $meta) {
$terms = get_the_terms($attachment, 'image_cat');
if($terms) {
$response['taxonomy'] = 'image_cat';
foreach($terms as $term) {
$response['terms'][] = $term->slug;
}
}
return $response;
}
add_filter( 'wp_prepare_attachment_for_js', 'ggstyle_add_cats_to_prepare_attachment_for_js', 10, 3 );
Q2.
And here is where I am really stuck. I can’t get the updated Terms to save to the image.
Here is my current code, where I have added a filter to attachment_fields_to_save in the ajax_update_attachment function
I have tried various things and nothing has worked.
function ggstyle_acf_update_attachment($post, $changes) {
if( isset( $changes['terms'] ) ) {
foreach($changes['terms'] as $term) {
$post['terms'][] = $term;
}
}
wp_set_object_terms($post->ID, $post['terms'], 'image_cat', false);
}
add_filter( 'attachment_fields_to_save', 'ggstyle_acf_update_attachment', 10, 2);
