Description
This plugin is intented for Developers only it’s a effort to implement a simple custom front end post edit form using angularJS.
I’ll be tracking issues via github:
https://github.com/vimes1984/custompostedit/
It uses angularJS for the form and requires you pass a $_GET['posttoedit'] variable in the url to the form containing the post ID you want to edit.
Example:
http://EXAMPLE.com/?posttoedit=POST_ID_TO_EDIT
You are going to need to update three files to get this up and running first the form:
These fileds need to match the following syntax where in this case monthlysalary will be the object passed to the php function:
Example:
<input type="text" name="jobtitle" ng-model="formobject.monthlysalary" placeholder="Monthly Salary" />
File:
/includes/customedit.php
Then the class customPostEdit->post_edit_fac() method, line 237-> 262 is the function that actually updates the post and is called from the javascript:
File:
customPostEdit.php
you are going to need to fill these in with the fields you want to update you can find the default fields here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description#Table:_wp_posts
And you can update post meta fields like so:
Example:
update_post_meta( $postID, 'wpcf-monthly-salary', $monthlysalary );
There is one last file you may need to edit and that’s the AngularJS file you may need to change
Example:
$scope.formobject = {'jobID': '', 'title': '', 'jobcontent': '', 'monthlysalary': ''};
Object to match your form fields in this file:
File:
/js/custom-post-edit.js
This file calls the php endpoint we defined in the first file the post_edit_fac and sends the formobject {} to that function from the form.
You can place the form anywhere you want using the shortcode:
Shortcode:
[post_edit]
Good luck and post any issues to github I’ll gladly lend a hand…
