I want add AJAX support to my plugin and I have huge problem with this simple thing. WordPress isn't permitting me to use normal AJAX and I need to use WordPress version.
At all times, the WordPress function (that should generate output) returns 0. And I think that the reason is that WP doesn't trigger 'function'. I try to force the function to run many times, but I don't have any idea what I can improve.
<?php
public function widget( $args, $instance ) {
$options = get_option('Free_Quotation_options');
?>
<script type="text/javascript" >
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
var ajaxurl = "<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>";
jQuery.ajax({
url: ajaxurl,
type: 'POST',
action: 'fqtag',
data: {
'whatever': 'text'
},
success: function (output) {
$('#secondary').append(output);
}
});
});
</script>
<?php
add_action( 'wp_ajax_fqtag', 'fqtag' );
add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_fqtag', 'fqtag' );
function fqtag() {
global $wpdb;
echo 'echo';
die();
}
}
I try to add alert('echo'); to the test function, but it doesn't have any effect. I think that AJAX doesn't run the proper function: fq_tag_support_callback() .
On the beginning I had a problem with ajaxurl variable. It was not defined. It's not a normal situation. I attempt to resolve this problem by using:
var ajaxurl = "<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>";
Do you have any idea, how can I try to solve this problem?

- If you look at the source for the page is the jquery.js file being included? It should be, but if not you'll need to enqueue it. Do you see your JS in the source as well? – Arielle Lewis Commented Oct 21, 2014 at 18:41
- Yes: Remote Address:[::1]:80 Request URL:localhost/wordpress/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.11.0 For example when I add this line in jQuery(documet) script: $( "#secondary" ).append( "<p>Test</p>" ); It works perfect – kris_IV Commented Oct 21, 2014 at 18:45

<script>alert('echo');</script>
your response should be echo if you check your console. I suspect all the above code is in your plugin functions file. Basically the php function should be placed in the functions file.
The jquery should be placed in the template from which you want to receive the response.
Place this in your functions file...remove the jquery from the class...
add_action('wp_print_footer_scripts', 'print_js', 1000);
function print_js() { ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery.ajax({
url: 'wp-admin/admin-ajax.php',
type: 'POST',
data: {
'action': 'test_callback',
'whatever': 'text'
},
success: function (output) {
alert(output);
}
});
});
</script>
<?php
}
Move this outside your class...
function test_callback() {
$whatever = 8;
echo $whatever;
die();
}
add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_testaction', 'test_callback' );
add_action( 'wp_ajax_testaction', 'test_callback' );
Just make sure that you have put the function 'fq_tag_support_callback()' in your plugin's main file.
I see few problems here. Action should inside the data object, not as a jQuery Ajax parameter. Also in the callback function data is stored in $_POST variable.
function test_callback() {
$whatever = $_POST['whatever'];
echo $whatever;
die();
}
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_fqtag', 'test_callback');
add_action('wp_ajax_fqtag', 'test_callback');
function print_js() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.ajax({
url: <?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>,
type: 'POST',
data: {
action: 'fqtag',
whatever: 'text'
},
success: function (output) {
alert(output);
}
});
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_print_footer_scripts', 'print_js', 1000);
?>
