How to pass site_id through shortcode?
-
Hi,
Not sure if this forum is the right place for it, so if it isn’t, feel free to move it elsewhere, or delete.
I’m modifiying a custom plugin and I need to be able to pass the user_id and the site_id through the shortcode. Basically what I need to do is to be able to output into a shortcodes that list a user’s favorite posts (one shortcode) and images (another shortcode – pulls images from the parent’s media library) into the network subsite/subdomain.
These shortcodes are currently set-up to work on my parent site, but I need to know how to get the shortcode to display on a subsite.
I imagine that I would need to have a global media library plugin to get this set-up of sorts?
I’m not a programmer by any means, so I need to learn how to do this myself. I would appreciate if any of you could provide any documentation, guidance, or mentoring to help me get this done.
I wonder if there’s a course on Udemy or something about passing user_id and site_id through shortcode?

I was told I could use switch_to_blog function within my script. I want to switch to blog 5.
This is the shortcode I use to fetch the user_id, just need to get the site_id passed through it. Would I use switch_to_blog in this case?
add_shortcode('user_id_favorite_images', 'user_id_favorite_imagesCBF'); function user_id_favorite_imagesCBF($atts){ if (is_admin()) return; extract( shortcode_atts( array( 'uid' => '' ), $atts ) ); if ( $uid == '' || !($uid > 0) || !($uid >= 1) ) return; $curUserID = $uid; $mam_my_favorite_images_arr = get_metadata('user',$curUserID, 'mam_my_favorite_images_arr', true); $mam_my_favorite_images_arr = $mam_my_favorite_images_arr ? $mam_my_favorite_images_arr : array(); $media_cats_terms = get_terms( 'media-category'); if(count($mam_my_favorite_images_arr) > 0 && !empty( $media_cats_terms ) && !is_wp_error( $media_cats_terms ) ){ foreach($media_cats_terms as $media_cat_term){ $image_posts = get_posts( array( 'posts_per_page' => -1, 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'tax_query' => array( array( 'taxonomy' => 'media-category', 'field' => 'term_id', 'terms' => $media_cat_term->term_id, ) ) ) ); // image_posts //echo '<pre>'; print_r($image_posts); echo '</pre>'; if(isset($image_posts[0])){ $gray_counter = 1; foreach($image_posts as $image_post){ if( false !== array_search($image_post->ID,$mam_my_favorite_images_arr)){ $image_id = $image_post->ID; $flag_wrt_img_uid = get_metadata('user',$curUserID, 'favorites_wrt_imageid_'.$image_id.'_uid_'.$curUserID.'_flag', true); $count = get_metadata('post',$image_id, 'simplefavorites_count', true); if($flag_wrt_img_uid && $flag_wrt_img_uid == 'adding_one'){ $gray_counter++; $approveArgs = array('status' => 'approve', 'post_id' => $image_id,'user_id' => $curUserID, 'order'=>'ASC'); $approveComments = get_comments($approveArgs); //echo '<pre>'; print_r($image_posts); echo '</pre>' if(isset($category_name) && $category_name == $media_cat_term->name){ } else { $category_name = $media_cat_term->name; echo '<h3>'.($media_cat_term->name).'</h3>'; echo '<ul class="favorites-list">'; } ?> <li class="div_table_li_wrapper" <?php echo ( ($gray_counter % 2 == 0) ?
