Frontend Updates 2RRR Fork

Hi wp student,

Not sure if your mean as code or as the redirect shortcode option.

The shortcode redirect to a custom url is not implemented yet. My prior discussion with you mentioned it as a good idea for the next release.

If your doing it in code you need to change $redirect_url at the end of submit_post() in wpuf-add-post.php and wpuf-edit-post.php. However there is a filter ‘wpuf_post_redirect’ provided especially for that case which you can add to your functions.php file in your theme.

For wp student and those wanting the ability to specify a redirect url you can amend the code as follows to allow the redirect option of the add post shortcode to include urls. For example [wpuf_addpost redirect=”http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-user-frontend”%5D

In the function submit_post() change the following lines from

//Set after post redirect
switch ($_POST['wpuf_redirect']) {
	case "auto":
		if ($_POST['wpuf_close'] == true) {
			$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_referer'];
		} else {
			$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_self'];
		}
		break;
	case "current":
		$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_self'];
		break;
	case "last":
		$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_referer'];
		break;
	case "new":
		$redirect_url = get_permalink( $post_id );
		break;
	default:
		$redirect_url = "";
}

to

//Set after post redirect
switch ($_POST['wpuf_redirect']) {
	case "auto":
		if ($_POST['wpuf_close'] == true) {
			$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_referer'];
		} else {
			$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_self'];
		}
		break;
	case "current":
		$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_self'];
		break;
	case "last":
		$redirect_url = $_POST['wpuf_referer'];
		break;
	case "new":
		$redirect_url = get_permalink( $post_id );
		break;
	default:
		if ( $_POST['wpuf_redirect'] ) {
			//Redirect to url given by wpuf_redirect
			$redirect_url = htmlspecialchars( $_POST['wpuf_redirect'], ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8" );
			$redirect_url = add_query_arg( 'wpuf_referer', $_POST['wpuf_referer'], $redirect_url );
		}
}

Hi Rkarel,

I definitely see your point. If the internet consisting of only web programmers it would be virtually a much simpler world. Users! God love them!

As to the Media Library even though the new WordPress library is much improved in a lot of regards it’s still a minefield for users and of course they have access to all other images there which is both a curse and a bonus.

So your submission for a media type gallery here is probably apt. We did in the old version just display images down the line on the submission page but it looked horrible particulary when images were huge. However I gather the need is for an image gallery on both the submission page and the resultant post. This probably is a bit of work and I have no idea of any WordPress functionality that would help.

Does anybody have any ideas on how such a thing should look and work (Maybe another plugin that does this well). Note we have to allow for non image files as well.

We have discovered a bug with TheStyle theme from Elegant Themes with the development versions and WordPress 3.5.1.

With the above combination clicking on the attachment button (if enabled) will only result in FrontEnd scrolling to the top of the screen.

This problem exists because TheStyle theme presently uses a version of jQuery UI (1.7.2) which is incompatiable with WordPress 3.5.1 (which uses 1.9.2).

The fix is of to update TheStyle theme to use the jQuery version compatiable with the WordPress version it is installed on.

So in the directory /wp-content/themes/TheStyle do the following chages:

1. Add the following code to header.php just before wp_head()

<?php
//Used by /includes/scripts.php
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-core’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-effects’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-widget’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-tabs’);
?>

2. Delete the following line from include/scripts.php

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.1/jquery-ui.min.js”></script&gt;
