Best practice method
Have a look at wp_localize_script
, which is meant to do exactly that.
But it does require previous usage of wp_enqueue_scripts
, hence you will need to move your JS to a separate file indeed.
It will be worth those few minutes of effort though, for sure.
function wpse_96370_scripts()
{
if ( is_single() ) {
wp_register_script(
'your_script_handle',
get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/your-script.js',
array( /* dependencies*/ ),
1.0,
true
);
wp_enqueue_script( 'your-script-handle' );
$script_params = array(
/* examples */
'post' => 99,
'users' => array( 1, 20, 2049 )
);
wp_localize_script( 'your-script-handle', 'scriptParams', $script_params );
}
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wpse_96370_scripts' );
In the JS you will then be able to use the passed parameters like so:
var posts = scriptParams.post,
secondUser = scriptParams.users[1]; /* index starts at 0 */
// iterate over users
for ( var i = 0; i < scriptParams.users.length; i++ ) {
alert( scriptParams.users[i] );
}
[Edit] Your situation
As per your comment
I created a new db table with some
response.id
s from facebook api. This is the table: action_id, user_id,post_id, fb_id where fb_id is response.id from a facebook action. Then in single.php I have a button where if I press I must delete the fb action with api:FB.api("https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/"+fb.response, 'delete');
wherefb.response
should befb_id
from table.
Put the following your theme’s /js/
folder, create it, if it doesn’t exist.
Let’s call the file fb-response.js
:
jQuery( '#button_id' ).click( function() {
FB.api( "https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/" + fbParams.id, 'delete' );
});
Then register, enqueue and localize as seen above. Assuming that you have the ID you’d like to pass in let’s say $fb_id
:
wp_register_script(
'fb-response',
get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/fb-response.js',
array( 'jquery' ),
1.0,
true
);
wp_enqueue_script( 'fb-response' );
wp_localize_script( 'fb-response', 'fbParams', array( 'id' => $fb_id ) );
N.B. Obviously, the above is assuming this is in a theme. If we’re talking “plugin”, alter locations accordingly.
