Adding Uploader To PHP File.

  • Hi Ckchaudhary,

    Great job on this plugin!

    I have a few different ways that users can message each other (Two different pop-up windows that use the BuddyPress message system). Is there anyway to add the file uploader and plugin functionality to these windows?

    I tried just pasting:

    <div class="bp_msgat_ui_wrapper">
	<label>
		<?php _e( 'Add an attachment','bp-msgat' );?><br>
	</label>
	<small><em><?php _e( 'Allowed file types : ', 'bp-msgat' ); echo implode( ', ', bp_message_attachment()->option('file-types') ); ?></em></small>
	<p><button class="button button-secondary" id="btn_msgat_upload" name="btn_msgat_upload"><?php _e( 'Choose file', 'bp-msgat' );?></button></p>
</div>

    into the pop-up windows PHP file, but I’m sure I need to let the plugin know where to enable the functions, scripts etc.

    Thanks for your hard work on this! You did an excellent job!

    All the best,
    Carl

    Hi Carl,
    Adding the attachments ui to any form will require you to do 2 things:

    1. Enqueue plugin’s js files. By default plugin loads its script, styles only on buddypress’ default compose message screen. You can copy code from function add_css_js in wp-content\plugins\buddypress-message-attachment\includes\actions.php line #48
    2. Add attachment’s ui to your form – Plugin has a filter specifically for this purpose. Define a custom action call in your form and add that action name in the list of actions at wp-content\plugins\buddypress-message-attachment\includes\actions.php line #38 using the filter defined there.

    That should be all you need to do. I understand it’ll be difficult to implement for non-programmers. I’ll soon write a blog post about this in detail.

    Hi Ckchaudhary,

    Thanks for helping with this ??

    I was able to accomplish ‘Part 2’ but got stumped with ‘Part 1’, Enqueuing the JS. Will the public function add_css_js(){ code (Assuming line 48 to line 90?) need to be copied into the pop-up window php file? Or is there another way to load the script when the pop-up window is triggered.

    This pop-up windows can be triggered on any of the sites pages by opening a menu and clicking on a users icon.

    I’ve worked with WordPress a lot but very novice with code, so as much detail as your willing to give is appreciated.

    Thanks again for taking the time to help!

    Regards,
    Carl
