Place Ad Image Upload

    Hi,

    I’ve customised page-place-ad-upload-fields.tpl.php to change the appearance of the file upload buttons using the following

    <input id="file" type="file" name="file" />
<label for="file" class="custom-file-upload">
        Browse Files
    </label>
<p id="fileinfo"><span></span></p>
<script>
$('#file').on('change', function(){
    $('#fileinfo').text($(this).val());
});
</script>

    I can click my label choose a file and the file name is displayed. However when I click the upload button <input class="button" type="submit" value="<?php echo esc_attr( __( 'Upload Images', 'AWPCP' ) ); ?>" id="submit" name="submit"> nothing is uploaded.

    This technique works fine across the site but not with this plugin. Is there something in the original input <input class="image-upload-field" type="file" name="AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>" id="AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>" size="20" /> that needs to be included to get this to work?

    Thanks

  • Hi ouegy,

    When you customize the plugin’s files, you have to be careful not to break existing logic or IDs of things that AWPCP will use. The answer to your question:

    Is there something in the original input <input class=”image-upload-field” type=”file” name=”AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>” id=”AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>” size=”20″ /> that needs to be included to get this to work?

    Is YES. Those name/ID designations are not an accident, they are used to pull the file upload data from. You need to have them.

    AWPCP also expects to create more than one of them, which is what that php echo $i bit is about–this is run in a loop, so each field has a unique designation to pull from.

    That’s why it’s not working for you here.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply.

    To keep the id and name designations I slightly altered my approach to this for anyone who is interested. I wrapped the original AWPCP input in a label and absolutely positioned the input off of the page. See code below:

    <label class="custom-upload"><input style="position:absolute; left:-9999px" class="image-upload-field" type="file" name="AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>" id="AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>" size="20" />Browse files</label>
            <p id="fileinfo"><span></span></p>
<script>
$('#AWPCPfileToUpload<?php echo $i; ?>').on('change', function(){
    $('#fileinfo').text($(this).val());
});
</script>
