I want to load single posts into an index page using Ajax for a WPML based site that I'm working on. Not sure what I'm missing but there seems to be a catch when using multiple languages and fetching the correct posts.
Here's the code I wrote -
function loadProject(reference) {
console.log(window.location.origin + '/references/' + reference);
// Displays "http://mysite.com/references/example-post/", which exists
$('#content').load(window.location.origin + '/references/' + reference, function() {
console.log('Load was performed.');
});
}
I don't reach the JS log after load() but I don't receive any error message either (e.g. "File not found").
"References" is a custom post type that I've created using the Types plugin, and has a file of it's own called single-references.php. I'm not entirely sure how CPTs work with WPML, and that's probably where the problem lies. I have two languages, Swedish and English, and the CPT only has one slug for its kind ("references").
[Solved]
Used the .get() method instead to retrieve the post and now it works.
Well, no console error, no network query :
it is not a WPML issue
did you check #content really exists ?
In chrome dev tool, go to Network, and trigger your function. You'll see what you receive.

I am using code Igniter for my PHP project. I want to give provision in my site such that users can create new pages of their own, and access them directly from domain.com/their_page_name.
But, my developers have raised a concern that, 1000's of dynamic links that are presented in the format of domain.com/ is "not good for site's performance". For some 10-15 pages, it is fine. But, beyond that, it would effect the site's performance.
So, they proposed that the URL format should be like www.domain.com/something/page_name (here, 'something' is the controller name, as they mentioned it)
But, I really can't sacrifice my framework nor my requirement.
Is there any way that I can achieve the format of "www.domain.com/page_name" without effecting the site's performance?
Thanks in advance.
No issues on
Www.domain.com\userpagename.
It's not a framework issues. Codeigniter support this type of URL.you can create n no of URL.
Performance will matter how you are handling that particular controller or that particular function.
If may be 10 may be 100 ,work around same way.
You just have to put route accordingly.
$route[default_controller]=userurl;
$route[userurl/(:any)]=userurl yourfunction/$1`;
What it seems you need is dynamic controller, which can be done using Codeigniter's build in function _remap().
A code example is:
public function _remap($method){
if($method != null){
$this->yourFunction($method);
} else {
// handle the error as you like
}
}
public function yourFunction($key){
// your code logic here
}
All this code block goes inside your controller.
Edit: the performance is exactlu the same as going with domain.com/controller/method. What it matters, as stated above, is how you handle the data.
I want to hide posts in the feed that have a #joined hashtag. I tried to create a GreaseMonkey script with jQuery in the past, but it couldn't detect any posts that have the #joined text.
Am I using the wrong library? A starting point, or an existing library/plug-in would be helpful.
OFF-TOPIC: At the moment, Yammer does not have any feature to hide posts with a specific hashtag, although it has a feature to follow a hashtag.
I know that this is a pretty old question but I too was trying to create a Chrome based Add-on that hides these #joined posts (or any post with a specific hashtag). I came across this blog https://you.stonybrook.edu/thebaron/2014/10/06/hiding-joined-yammer-posts-in-chrome/ where the author of the post has shared his work (https://gist.github.com/thicknrich/e4cc2871462a6850fe8c). This is a simple javascript and does the job.
//Script from https://gist.github.com/thicknrich/e4cc2871462a6850fe8c
//load jQuery based on this SO Post:
//http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2246901/how-can-i-use-jquery-in-greasemonkey-scripts-in-google-chrome
// a function that loads jQuery and calls a callback function when jQuery has finished loading
function addJQuery(callback) {
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.setAttribute("src", "//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js");
script.addEventListener('load', function() {
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.textContent = "window.jQ=jQuery.noConflict(true);(" + callback.toString() + ")();";
document.body.appendChild(script);
}, false);
document.body.appendChild(script);
}
// the guts of this userscript
function main() {
// Note, jQ replaces $ to avoid conflicts.
setInterval(function() {
//if a item thread contains #joined, hide it
//check every 5 second.
jQ('.yj-thread-list-item:contains("#joined")').css("display", "none");
}, 5000);
}
// load jQuery and execute the main function
addJQuery(main);
You can find all joined messages with the following endpoint, based upon the #joined topic:
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/about_topic/[:id].json
But you can only delete messsages that you own:
DELETE https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/[:id]
Source: https://developer.yammer.com/restapi/
Note that this is a conscious decision by the product team, although joined messages can get spammy when a network becomes viral, it is a great opportunity to engage users right away once they join. It makes them feel welcome. As a community manager, I'd encourage you to welcome that user in and also encourage other yammer champions to welcome these users also. As a side effect, it also encourages people to follow the groups they are interested in and use the Top or Following feeds instead of the all (firehose) feed which has all these joined messages.
Just want to note that the statement in a reply here "But you can only delete messsages that you own" is not entirely correct it is possible to delete message that do not belong to you if you are a network admin. I just ran a little experiment after reading this post and deleting #joined messages that don't belong to me worked just fine.
i have create module using module builder , now i am having a field called as book Name
now if i give same book name 2 time t is accepting .
i don't want to use and plug in for checking duplicate value because i want to learn the customization through code .
so i can call ajax and check in data base weather the same book name is exist in db or not but i don't know how controller works in sugar crm . and how to call ajax in sugar crm .
can any one guide me , your help is much appreciated .
If you really want to accomplish this using ajax then I'd recommend an entryPoint as the way to go. This customization will require a couple of simple things. First you'll write a little bit of javascript to perform the actual ajax call. That ajax call will post to the entryPoint you write. The entryPoint will run the query for you and return a response to you in the edit view. So lets get started by writing the entryPoint first.
First, open the file custom/include/MVC/Controller/entry_point_registry.php. If the folder structure and file do not exist yet, go ahead and create them.
Add the following code to the entry_point_registry.php file:
$entry_point_registry['test'] = array('file' => 'custom/test.php', 'auth' => true);
Some quick explanation about that line:
The index value of test can be changed to whatever you like. Perhaps 'unique_book_value' makes more sense in your case. You'll see how this value is used in a minute.
The file value in the array points to where you're gonna put your actual code. You should also give this a more meaningful name. It does NOT need to match the array key mentioned above.
The 'auth' => true part determines whether or not the browser needs to have an active logged in session with SugarCRM or not. In this case (and almost all) I'd suggest keeping this to true.
Now lets look at the code that will go in custom/test.php (or in your case unique_book_name.php):
/* disclaimer: we are not gonna get all crazy with using PDO and parameterized queries at this point,
but be aware that there is potential for sql injection here. The auth => true will help
mitigate that somewhat, but you're never supposed to trust any input, blah blah blah. */
global $db; // load the global sugarcrm database object for your query
$book_name = urldecode($_REQUEST['book_name']); // we are gonna start with $_REQUEST to make this easier to test, but consider changing to $_POST when confirmed working as expected
$book_id = urldecode($_REQUEST['book_id']); // need to make sure this still works as expected when editing an existing record
// the $db->quote is an alias for mysql_real_escape_string() It still does not protect you completely from sql injection, but is better than not using it...
$sql = "SELECT id FROM book_module_table_name WHERE deleted = 0 AND name = '".$db->quote($book_name)."' AND id <> '".$db->quote($book_id)."'";
$res = $db->query($sql);
if ($db->getRowCount($res) > 0) {
echo 'exists';
}
else {
echo 'unique';
}
A note about using direct database queries: There are api methods you can use to accomplish this. (hint: $bean->retrieve_by_string_fields() - check out this article if you wanna go that route: http://developer.sugarcrm.com/2012/03/23/howto-using-the-bean-instead-of-sql-all-the-time/) However, I find the api to be rather slow and ajax should be as fast as possible. If a client asked me to provide this functionality there's a 99% chance I'd use a direct db query. Might use PDO and parameterized query if I'm feeling fancy that day, but it's your call.
Using the above code you should be able to navigate to https://crm.yourdomain.com/index.php?entryPoint=test and run the code we just wrote.
However at this point all you're gonna get is a white screen. If you modify the url to include the entryPoint part and it loads your home page or does NOT go to a white screen there are 3 potential causes:
You put something different for $entry_point_registry['test']. If so change the url to read index.php?entryPoint=whatever_you_put_as_the_array_key
You have sugar in a folder or something on your domain so instead of crm.yourdomain.com it is located somewhere ugly and stupid like yourdomain.com/sugarcrm/ if this is the case just make sure that your are modifying the url such that the actual domain portion is preserved. Okay I'll spell it out for you... https://yourdomain.com/sugarcrm/index.php?entryPoint=test
This is more rare, but for some reason that I cannot figure out apache sometimes needs to be reloaded when adding a new entrypoint. If you have shell access a quick /etc/init.d/apache2 reload should do the trick. If you don't have shell access you may need to open a ticket with your hosting provider (or get a fricking vps where you have some control!!!, c'mon man!)
Still not working? Did you notice the "s" in https? Try http instead and buy a fricking $9 ssl cert, geez man!
Okay moving on. Let's test out the entryPoint a bit. Add a record to the book module. Let's add the book "War of Art" (no, not Art of War, although you should give that a read too).
Now in the url add this: index.php?entryPoint=test&book_name=Art%20of%20War
Oh gawd that url encoding is hideous right! Don't worry about it.
You should hopefully get an ugly white screen with the text "exists". If you do let's make sure it also works the other way. Add a 2 to the book name in the url and hopefully it will now say "unique".
Quick note: if you're using Sugar you're probably also using mysql which is case insensitive when searching on strings. If you really need case sensitivity check out this SO article:
How can I make SQL case sensitive string comparison on MySQL?
Okay so now we have our entryPoint working and we can move on to the fun part of making everything all ajaxical. There are a couple ways to go about this, but rather than going the most basic route I'm gonna show you what I've found to be the most reliable route.
You probably will need to create the following file: custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/views/view.edit.php (I hope by now I don't need to point out changing that path to use your module name...
Assuming this file did not exist and we are starting from scratch here is what it will need to look like:
if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');
class CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULEViewEdit extends ViewEdit
{
public function display()
{
// make sure it works in the subpanel too
$this->useForSubpanel = true;
// make the name value available in the tpl file
$this->ss->assign('name_value', $this->bean->name);
// load the parsed contents of the tpl into this var
$name_input_code = $this->ss->fetch('custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/tpls/unique_book_checker.tpl.js');
// pass the parsed contents down into the editviewdefs
$this->ss->assign('custom_name_code', $name_input_code);
// definitely need to call the parent method
parent::display();
}
}
Things are looking good. Now we gotta write the code in this file: custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/tpls/unique_book_checker.tpl.js
First a couple of assumptions:
We're going to expect that this is Sugar 6.5+ and jquery is already available. If you're on an earlier version you'll need to manually include jquery.
We're going to put the event listener on the name field. If the book name value that you want to check is actually a different field name then simply adjust that in the javascript below.
Here is the code for custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/unique_book_checker.tpl.js:
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" maxlength="255" value="{$name_value}" />
<span id="book_unique_result"></span>
{literal}
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#name').blur(function(){
$('#book_unique_result').html('<strong> checking name...</strong>');
$.post('index.php?entryPoint=test', {book_name: $('#name').val(), book_id: $('[name="record"]').val()}, function(data){
if (data == 'exists') {
removeFromValidate('EditView', 'name');
addToValidate('EditView', 'name', 'float', true, 'Book Name Must be Unique.');
$('#book_unique_result').html('<strong style="color:red;"> ✗</strong>');
}
else if (data == 'unique') {
removeFromValidate('EditView', 'name');
addToValidate('EditView', 'name', '', true, 'Name Required');
$('#book_unique_result').html('<strong style="color:green;"> ✓</strong>');
}
else {
// uh oh! maybe you have php display errors on?
}
});
});
});
</script>
{/literal}
Another Note: When the code detects that the name already exists we get a little hacky and use Sugar's built in validation stuff to prevent the record from saving. Basically, we are saying that if the name already exists then the name value MUST be a float. I figured this is pretty unlikely and will do the trick. However if you have a book named 3.14 or something like that and you try to create a duplicate this code will NOT prevent the save. It will tell you that a duplicate was found, but it will not prevent the save.
Phew! Okay last two steps and they are easy.
First, open the file: custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/metadata/editviewdefs.php.
Next, find the section that provides the metadata for the name field and add this customCode attribute so that it looks like this:
array (
'name' => 'name',
'customCode' => '{$custom_name_code}',
),
Finally, you'll need to do a quick repair and rebuild for the metadata changes to take effect. Go to Admin > Repair > Quick Repair & Rebuild.
Boom! You should be good to go!
I am a newbie to knockoutjs. I have searched examples and so far no luck. I have a page that is a data collection form with the values bound using knockout. What I am trying to do is provide the user with a flag letting him know data is modified and that it needs to be saved. In the app a user may pull down the form and display the data from the server and use it only as information. In other cases he may modify that data. I want to display a label that says something like "data has been modified" to the user once any binding has changed plus if he tries to navigate away from the page I want to warn him the changes will be lost. Is there some event I can subscribe to that tells me when any value has been changed in the model?
Thanks,
Terry
Take a look at Ryan Niemeyer's Dirty Flag. It might be what you are looking for. An example of his method can be seen in this jsFiddle.
this.dirtyItems = ko.computed(function() {
return ko.utils.arrayFilter(this.items(), function(item) {
return item.dirtyFlag.isDirty();
});
}, this);
More info can be found in this SO thread: Knockout isDirty example, using dynamic viewmodule from mapping plugin
I have a results page and I am trying to work out how to auto update the page when an external database field is updated. I have seen quite a few examples but they seem to relate to PHP. I have a test that calls various APIs that can take up to an hour to complete. Once the test has completed, it will enter a success or failed message in a database field.
I already have my results page being rendered by django using template tags. I have a table and I have the field I would like to update. There are multiple fields that need update which correspond to each API test.
I have seen this site.. is this the kind of stuff to use? http://www.dajaxproject.com/ Is this an easy task to do? Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this?
Sorry but I don't know where to start on this one.
Cheers - Oli
I decided not to be so bold and just use the old classic page update for this purpose using javascript..
window.onload = setupRefresh;
function setupRefresh() {
setTimeout("refreshPage();", 30000); // milliseconds
}
function refreshPage() {
window.location = location.href;
}
Still open for options however I'm rather inexperienced in django and maybe this was too much to bite off too quickly..
