Hi,
I created a field “client” with the wp users.
In my admin page i’d need to listen to on change on this drop down.
This is what i tried but no effect…
Thnaks
in function.php
function my_acf_admin_head()
{
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('select').on('change', function() {alert( this.value );})
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('acf/input/admin_head', 'my_acf_admin_head');
…my second question would be:
I get the WP users in your Dropdown field by login, how could i retrieve user ID onchange in the list ?
thanks
ok it works with this below, could you please now have a look at my second question please ? thanks
function my_acf_admin_head()
{
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($){
$('select').on('change', function() {alert( this.value );})
});
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('acf/input/admin_head', 'my_acf_admin_head');
oh yes !!! magical ! this.value gives me directly the user ID, !!
when select on change , how could i set my other act fields with new values please ?
thanks
In fact , more generally this is my case :
I created a custom post type and added the ACF fields in the admin post page.
My first ACF fiels is a WP User Dropdown, and when loading page or changing value in drop down list i need to update all fiels that depends on $user_id
thanks
The walkthrough to follow.
On javascript you should
– get the user ID (there are functions to do that)
– add it to the ACF ajax query.
For the other fields depending on user ID value :
On PHP you should use query filters (there are some for taxs, posts, relations)
– get the $_POST[ID] (added by JS before)
– use it.
When you load the page (ie for an update) , $_POST[ID] does not exist but you can use get_field if you need to use your query filters with user ID
RogerBSulli, I think the best is to open first a new thread.
Regarding your problem, it coulb be easily solved with few JS code.
