Feedback Statistics Not Showing When Add Direct To Template

Just a bit more detail, I have no post types selected, added the links direct to my theme template, if I try to visit this URL, I get an error message. As soon as I check Posts, it works great again.
https://domain.com/wp-admin/edit.php?page=anyway-feedback-static-post

I need to be able to access this URL without having Posts checked or else it will show up twice on my Posts which I don’t want.

Thanks again.

Don’t know if this helps any, but I placed this in my post template. Twenty Sixteen content-single.php.
https://github.com/WordPress/twentysixteen/blob/master/template-parts/content-single.php

<?php
if( function_exists('afb_display') ){
afb_display();
} ?>

Sorry for the many replies, editing time is really limited now for some reason.

Thanks.

Hi, @alextine

The admin URL of statistic page is generated with admin page API if check box is on at Setting > Anyway Feedback.
Every setting page will be under the post list(/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=xxx). If post is the post type(means default post), no query argument.
So, the URL would become like this.

For default post:
https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?page=anyway-feedback-static-post
For custom post type xxx:
https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=xxx&page=anyway-feedback-static-xxx
For custom post type e.g. add-on:
https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=add-on&page=anyway-feedback-static-add-on

If you want to the link to statistic page on “template”(does this mean front page, right?), just write like below

echo admin_url(sprintf('edit.php?post_type=%1$s&page=anyway-feedback-static-%1$s', get_post_type()));

I hope this helps.

By the way, you have to check permission of current user. If no-perm user clicks this link, he/she will see the wp_die screen.

if ( current_user_can( 'edit_post', get_the_ID() ) ) {
    // This user can edit this post.
}

Hello @takahashi_fumiki

I tried going directly to this URL and I got this error.
Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.
https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?page=anyway-feedback-static-post

I’m an Administrator user, why am I seeing this just from visiting the direct URL?

Thanks.

This is for the “post” post type. ??

@alexstine

If you check for post, you will see this link. If not, you have no statistic screen. See the image below:

@takahashi_fumiki

I don’t understand, I already have posts. No one has voted yet, is this why the screen isn’t showing? I have one post named “Testing”, I just need this page to be accessible instead of this error.

I am visually impaired, I cannot see pictures.

Thanks.

@alexstine

> I am visually impaired, I cannot see pictures.

Oh, sorry for that. I thought captured image is more intuitive, but that’s lack of my imagination.

First of all, statistic screen is available only for post types which are checked “on” at “Post type setting” section of setting screen “Anyway Feedback” under “General Setting”.

Your URL https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?page=anyway-feedback-static-post is O.K.

As you mentioned above, you have written a code afb_display() directly in the template. I guess it’s because you don’t want feedback buttons to be inside the_content(), isn’t it? If so, you can select in which post type the buttons are hidden at “Hide default feedback controller” section of setting screen.

Anyway, repeat again. The statistic page for post type “post” is only available if you check it at setting screen.

I hope this comment helps.

@takahashi_fumiki

Firstly, sorry for my slowness in understanding.

So could you please explain how I can keep the Posts checkbox checked with hiding the links inside the content? It should only be displaying for the custom code. Do I need to hide it with CSS? Or is there another option I’m missing?

Thanks.

@alexstine

> Firstly, sorry for my slowness in understanding.

It’s Okay ??

STEP1

Go to setting page “Anyway Feedback” under “General Setting”. URL is ‘https://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=anyway-feedback’

STEP2

Turn “posts” on at the section “Post type setting”. Now statistic page for posts is available. URL should be ‘https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?page=anyway-feedback-static-post’.

STEP3

Now, you have 2 control areas because you wrote afb_display() directly to templates. You have to hide automatically generated buttons.

Go to setting page and turn “posts” on at the section “Hide default feedback controller”. I don’t use screen reader but you can access it with tab key. Second “posts” is the one. Checked will be hidden.

I believe now you can get what you want.

Hello @takahashi_fumiki

Alright, almost. The only issue I’m having is I cannot see this section on either of my test site or live site. It simply isn’t in the settings page. Even tried fresh install.

Go to setting page and turn “posts” on at the section “Hide default feedback controller”.

I did save first, refreshed, still not there.

Suggestions?

@takahashi_fumiki

Now home, I was able to grab this screenshot for you. Hopefully I captured the settings correctly, you can clearly see that the option you are referring to is not there. It is also the only plugin activated, using the Twenty Sixteen theme.

Thanks.

Oh, @alexstine, That’s my fault.
The plugin repo’s latest version is different from Github.
I thought changes were merged.
I will fix it soon but quick fix is below.

In your theme’s function.php, write this code block.

remove_filter( 'the_content', array( AFB\Main::get_instance(), 'the_content' ), 10 );

If you want some post type shows buttons and the other doesn’t, wait for next release.

Hello @takahashi_fumiki

Thanks that worked for the time being. Could you please give me some code to do the same for comments? I am displaying the links conditionally for staff users only and do not want the links displaying automatically, just by the added code to the comments template.

Thanks for your help. ??

@alexstine

To remove comment, this may work.

remove_filter( 'comment_text', array( AFB\Main::get_instance(), 'comment_text' ), 10 );

Don’t forget marking these code blocks with comment like below.

// TODO: Remove this hooks when AFB updated!
