My advice is to not do long running bulk-operations over a web-connection in the first place. PHP works just fine from the command line. Write your one-time script to do whatever it is that you need it to do. If you need access to WordPress functions in that process, then include the wp-load.php file at … Read more
it is much easier with WordPress inbuilt function media_handle_upload http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/media_handle_upload // These files need to be included as dependencies when on the front end. require_once( ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/image.php’ ); require_once( ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/file.php’ ); require_once( ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/media.php’ ); // Let WordPress handle the upload. // Remember, ‘my_image_upload’ is the name of our file input … Read more
If you can assume that user profile is edited all at once (Users Role, Organisation ID and Organisation name), you can hook on only one meta_key (say Organisation name) and send all infos at this moment. By the time this action is fired, all 3 metas are already in database. add_action(‘updated_user_meta’, ‘when_user_meta_updated’, 10, 3); function … Read more
The way you did in your code you are querying posts with the key rw_related_link. If I understood you right, you must use get_post_meta inside the loop. <?php while ($normal_query->have_posts()) { $normal_query->the_post(); $related_link = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), ‘rw_related_link’, true); // The value you want is in $related_link variable. ?> <li><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/178321/<?php the_permalink(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></a></li> <?php } … Read more
Before we code and go into particulars, lets look at the problem at hand. First of all, any valid date format is valid in a custom field if you are not going to use it for comparisons and sorting When you are going to sort by date or do comparisons by date in a custom … Read more
There may not be a need for a custom query, but I’d recommend it rather than hitting the database: – once for the WP_Query – once more for each post entry And then manually working out the math in PHP. Do it all at once with one MySQL statement. select sum(PM.meta_value) from wp_postmeta PM join … Read more
This quite an expensive operation what you are doing, and IMHO wrong worksflow as well. What you want to do is, is the following Get all the meta_values from the specific meta_key you need. You can then check the random number against the values returned from a specific meta_key Here is a very basic idea … Read more
delete_post_meta will delete the meta row. delete_post_meta also uses wpdb class to delete the meta rows. Can you show us the full code. For your information delete_post_meta executes the following mysql command DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE meta_id IN( “85” ); through delete_metadata function. meta_id 85 is just given for example purpose. It is dynamic. so … Read more
You’ll want to add to the hidden item meta array as such: add_filter(‘woocommerce_hidden_order_itemmeta’, array($this, ‘hidden_order_itemmeta’), 50); function hidden_order_itemmeta($args) { $args[] = ‘my_hidden_meta’; return $args; }
Take a look at the AJAX documentation, there are plenty of examples on this site and across the Googles to trigger a server event without refreshing the page. In this case, WP is listening to an AJAX call that looks like http://example.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=wpse20160318_batch_update. When triggered, it’ll run through your batch process an output a JSON message … Read more
