@kendall,
I actually just tried your method about half an hour ago but i can’t seem to get it to work.
My custom type is $ideas,
I added this to the bottom of my triggers.php file,
function custom_trigger($triggers) {
$triggers['new_trigger'] = 'New Trigger';
return $triggers;
}
add_filter('badgeos_activity_triggers', 'custom_trigger');
function increment_custom_trigger($post_id) {
// Set the database as a global variable.
global $wpdb;
// Get the post object and use the object to determine the type and author.
$post = get_post($post_id);
$post_type = $post->post_type;
$post_author = $post->post_author;
// Get the author as an object so we can retrieve a username.
$user = get_userdata( $post_author );
$username = $user->user_login;
// Test for our custom post type slug
if ($post_type == 'custom_type') {
// Iterate the trigger count and save the new count as a variable.
$new_count = badgeos_update_user_trigger_count($post_author, 'new_trigger');
// Log the new trigger count.
badgeos_post_log_entry( null, $author, null, sprintf('%1$s triggered %2$s (%3$dx)', $username, 'new_trigger', $new_count));
// Here's where things get fun. We're going to search the
// database for achievements that use the trigger that we've
// just incremented and save them in an array.
$triggered_achievements = $wpdb->get_results( $wpdb->prepare(
"
SELECT post_ID
FROM $wpdb->postmeta
WHERE meta_key = '_badgeos_trigger_type'
AND meta_value = %s
",
'new_trigger'
) );
// Now we iterate through that array and use an existing
// function to determine if we should award any of those
// achievements to the author of the post.
foreach ($triggered_achievements as $achievement) {
badgeos_maybe_award_achievement_to_user( $achievement->post_ID, $post_author, 'new_trigger', get_current_blog_id(), '' );
}
}
}
add_action('save_post', 'increment_custom_trigger');
Then I setup a badge using the ‘new trigger’ but it didn’t fire. No badge was given upon save / submit.
Not sure where i have gone wrong as it’s not throwing up any errors but it’s not giving badges either. Also how would i get it to award on publish and not save?
Much appreciated. Thank You.
