Javascript code is running in the user’s browser and not on your server (where your wordpress content resides). You could use ajax to call the function which the shortcode is pointing to. Here is how I handle AJAX calls with WordPress: 1) I use a jQuery ajax function to call the wp-admin/ajax.php jQuery.ajax({ url: yourSiteUrl … Read more
your post here helped me figure a solution. Along with the mceInit property, I also had to retrieve the qtInit that wp_editor generates as well. The following is the relevant code within my class.

The AJAX request runs in the background. Redirects here do not affect the main page. And 302 is not an error, it is just a status code. Your AJAX response should return either the URL and the status code to the calling page or just a number like 1. Then you handle the redirect in … Read more
Coming back to this on a new application. I just solved this using Angular, and a similar approach could be used with vanilla JS. First, give Javascript access to the admin-ajax.php URL, something like: echo “<script type=”text/javascript”>var ajaxurl=””.admin_url(“admin-ajax.php’).”‘</script>”; Next, in functions.php, register the action you want the Ajax to perform: add_action(“wp_ajax_infiniteScroll”, “infiniteScroll”); add_action(“wp_ajax_nopriv_infiniteScroll”, “infiniteScroll”); …and … Read more

Not sure if you’ve solved this or not but I was looking for a way to embed this within a page and filter posts by category. I got this working so it displays all categories and the posts related.

You are passing ‘eu_custom_query’ as the action in your AJAX. It should be ‘custom_query’. You decide the action name, when you add the action i.e. ‘wp_ajax_my_action’ would be called ‘my_action’ You are confusing it with the callback method. Hope that makes sense. p.s. to fix your code change: add_action(‘wp_ajax_custom_query’, ‘eu_custom_query’); add_action(‘wp_ajax_nopriv_custom_query’, ‘eu_custom_query’); to: add_action(‘wp_ajax_eu_custom_query’, ‘eu_custom_query’); … Read more
