There’re easier ways than this. As @Wyck already stated that using globals is bad idea, here’s a short explanation and how to: Why globals are bad: 1) Everyone can access them everywhere. First this sounds nice, but you can as well do the following: // Your code: default value global $foo; $foo = ‘bar’; // … Read more
You have to use the correct handle: wp_localize_script(‘page_data’, ‘glr_dt’, $gallery_js_data_array); // Edit Your code is also wrong. What do you want to do in this line: ‘maxPages’ => ‘$gallery_max_load = $gallery->max_num_pages;’ You are assigning a string to maxPages. I guess you want it that way (or similar): ‘maxPages’ => $gallery->max_num_pages, Now, you can access the … Read more
How to overwrite JS variable with wp_localize _script?
Unfortunately wp_localize_script() casts all scalars (simple types) in the passed-in array to strings (and then runs html_entity_decode() on them?!), so the casts mentioned by the answer you quote & @TheDeadMedic will get stringified “1”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”” if boolean, and number strings if ints, which won’t work with javascript plugins that demand exact values. A way around it … Read more
Try: function register_and_enqueue_script() { if(‘myPostType’ == get_post_type() && have_posts()) { wp_register_script( ‘js_script’, plugin_dir_url(__FILE__).’js/script.js’, array(), ‘1.8.5’ ); wp_enqueue_script(‘js_script’); $myCustomValue = array(); while(have_posts()) { the_post(); $mypostid = get_the_ID(); $myCustomValue[”.$mypostid] = nl2br(get_post_meta($mypostid, ‘custom_value’, true)); } // end while rewind_posts(); wp_localize_script(‘js_script’, ‘myCustomValue’, $myCustomValue); } // end if }
I tested that code like this: wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’); wp_localize_script( ‘jquery’, ‘MS_Ajax’, array( ‘ajaxurl’ => admin_url( ‘admin-ajax.php’ ), ‘nextNonce’ => wp_create_nonce( ‘myajax-next-nonce’ )) ); And it works but throws a Notice. It should be hooked to wp_enqueue_scripts like: function my_enqueue_scripts() { wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’); wp_localize_script( ‘jquery’, ‘MS_Ajax’, array( ‘ajaxurl’ => admin_url( ‘admin-ajax.php’ ), ‘nextNonce’ => wp_create_nonce( ‘myajax-next-nonce’ )) ); … Read more
Your code should be in an action callback function: function wpse186202_enqueue_scripts(){ wp_enqueue_script( ‘stats’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .’/js/t5-demo.js’ , array( ‘jquery’ ), ‘1.0.0’, true ); $categories = implode( ‘, ‘, wp_list_pluck( get_the_category( get_the_ID() ), ‘name’ ) ); $datatoBePassed = array( ‘author’ => get_queried_object()->post_author, ‘category’ => $categories, ‘title’ => single_post_title( ”, false ) ); wp_localize_script( ‘stats’, ‘php_vars’, $datatoBePassed ); … Read more
First of all, you are NOT enqueuing the script.. Try this code, working in my test install. function load_my_scripts() { // Create the localizations array $localize = array( ‘ajaxurl’ => admin_url( ‘admin-ajax.php’ ), ); // Register The Script First wp_register_script(‘custom-js’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/js/custom.js’, array(‘jquery’)); wp_enqueue_script(‘twentyfifteen-custom-js’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/custom.js’, array(), ‘20141010’, true); // Register the localization … Read more
If you follow the second approach in the linked Q\A, you do not need ajax, but just to pass the array of terms to the script. First of all in your functions.php (or equivalent) enqueue the script and pass the array of trades via wp_localize_script: add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, function() { /* you should check if the … Read more
Your ploblem is that wp_localize_script print to the html markup a javascript object similar to: var slider = {“id”:”a_unique_id_here”}; if you call it more times, e.g. using more shortcodes in same page, whati is printend in html markup is var slider = {“id”:”a_unique_id_here”}; var slider = {“id”:”another_unique_id_here”}; var slider = {“id”:”third_unique_id_here”}; so you are overwriting … Read more
