I think I figured it out…apologies!
I believe it was the way I’d confined the search to specific columns…we are good to go…thanks again!
I wanted to swing back here and give an enormous round of kudos to Josh. In the end, we didn’t end up using his own stellar plugin, WP Edit, Josh took the time and effort to debug a solution we were provided by our document host provider, rewrite it, and get it up and running to give us EXACTLY what we needed.
Josh worked with us, the developers of our controlled document system, our hosting provider…he might’ve even reached out to Obama I’m not sure 😉 …. and got it done.
I cannot recommend his work enough! If you’re coming across his plugin and this thread…you’ve made the right choice!

Sure thing…thank you…it’ll be nice to hopefully get this up and running so I don’t have to manually check the website vs our document management software to make sure the website has the most up to date documents.
Josh,
Sorry…I didn’t see your post from last week…not sure why it didn’t ping me when you wrote it…now time for me to apologize!
I’ll send it most likely Friday…much appreciate the help!

Josh,
To followup, to your statement about a month ago…”The free version of this plugin won’t prevent the editor from stripping out the onclick event.”
Will the paid version?
Ok, I was able to upload the 2 required PHP files to our host provider (with the small changes that define our unique server and guest login). I dropped them right in the public/html directory hope that was correct. So I won’t be using that plugin I’d mentioned above for the PHP.
So I guess the issue will be as you pointed out, how I “add your javascript to the page where you are using the onclick event. Then, add a click event in your javascript code, referencing the class or id of the element.”
Yes, I have the php file…the vendor provided it all, along with the documentation I linked…but as they are not WordPress developers they can’t / won’t help with implementing it.
For the PHP, I’m then using the plugin “PHP Code” (https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-code-for-posts/) as I wasn’t totally sure/comfortable adding it via the cpanel. Might that also be an issue?
What the end goal is instead of using our current Download Monitor plugin, which stores hundreds of documents that we want our clients and website visitors to access, I’m making use of the Javascript and PHP files DocMoto has provided so that I can instead embed the links directly to where these controlled documents are stored…our DocMoto server, which our inhouse staff can access using their Mac application.
The issue has been we have to make sure the documents we’ve uploaded on the website match what’s in DocMoto…these are updated quite often and many times, no one tells me so that I can update what we have on the website.
The end goal is once this is setup, I just create the href / anchor link once on our Documents page on the WordPress site, and the javascript/php take care of accessing the most up to date file from DocMoto.
Does that help at all…clear as mud? 😉
Thanks!
Ok…
I have the plugin, CSS & Javascript toolbox which lets me add the code specifically to the page I want it on, however for starters it that code literally shows up in the footer or header of the page, I must be misunderstanding how to implement it.
Also, I’m sorry I don’t quite understand adding a click event to the code and referencing the class or ID of the element.
I was given the client side Javascript which is (this is what’s showing up in my header/footer:
//This function takes the URL from the link anchor
//and sends it to the php script.function getDMFile(myURL)
{
window.location.href = “getDMFile.php?fileURL=” + myURL;
return false;
}And then I have the onlick Javascript which they say “is called from a hyperlink (anchor) within the web page.”
Sorry…I know we are moving outside the realm of your plugin to something else so no worries if you can’t help. Your response back does give me a bit more direction as it is…thanks for that!

In reply to: [Store Locator Plus®] [Plugin: Google Maps via Store Locator Plus] WidgetCurious how that widget is coming along. We really like the use of your software for our Farm Finder and would like to allow folks to do some quick searches for our organic farms right from a sidebar widget…then if they need further information to go to the full page/search.
Thanks!

In reply to: [Participants Database] Creating a Parent/Child relationshipThanks again!
I’m guessing it’s this one; pdb-after_submit_signup – provides access to the processed new participant record, raw values as stored in the database.
I understand the description…but this is my first time working with hooks. I’ll read more into it, just initially not sure how’d I’d access that record and parse out the fields I need to create then combine those to input it into subsequent field we need.
This will be new for me so I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
@peggyst – I’ll let you know how I make out at this 🙂

Thanks so much! And glad to know it wasn’t me 🙂
I’m going to post a question to the main forum as it’s off this topic…it’s in regards to the best way to achieve a parent/child relationship with your database using the one table.
Thanks!

Thanks a million…good to know!
And sorry to the admin…I know I was the impetus for the “please don’t respond to closed…”…super sorry! I couldn’t find how to contact Christi directly and sadly also didn’t notice the status was set to closed/resolved. My bad.
Got it installed and between the custom ID and PayPal hopes, thinks this is our ticket.
Thanks both!

In reply to: [Participants Database] Paypal IntegrationThis is pretty much along the lines of something we’re looking to do for a new client.
Would it be possible to share the URL of one of your signup pages? I’d be curious to see what you’ve setup thus far. I haven’t installed this plugin yet but am likely.
We basically will also have a registration form…where a parent signs up as the primary contact, and then registers as many kids as they have between certain ages. I need to charge them a basic/overall registration fee, then for each child. I don’t want to go with a full blown CRM.
Actually there’s a feature I need to be able to calculate a field based on input in 2 other fields to generate the unique ID/index and none of the CRM’s I’m looking at can allow that simply functionality like I’d have in a Filemaker or other database.
Thanks!
Joshua
