[Plugin: WP User Frontend] Custom Taxonomies

@chadamas

Thanks that’s another problem solved, easy when you know how. I just
couldn’t get my head round it.

I tried modifying the code for my custom taxonomy of “country”, and although it showed the dropdown box, it wouldn’t save the data. What did I do wrong? I’m not using custom post types.

function wpufe_country( $post_type, $post = null) {
    ?>

    <label for="country">
            Media <span class="required">*</span>
    </label>

    <?php 

    // Add security nonce check
    wp_nonce_field( __FILE__, 'nonce-country' );

    // Get all media taxonomy terms
    $medias = get_terms('country', 'hide_empty=0'); //$medias = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, 'country', array('fields' => 'ids') );

    ?>

    <li>

    <?php

    // You can also use the included dropdown generator function of wordpress, but I'd prefer to code the select myself in order to avoid possible problems
    //wp_dropdown_categories('taxonomy=country&hide_empty=0&orderby=name&name=post_media&show_option_none=Select media&selected='.$medias[0]);

    ?> 

    <select name='post_media' id='post_media' class="requiredField">
    <option value='' <?php if (!count($medias)) echo "selected='selected'";?>>Select a Country</option>
    <?php
	foreach ($medias as $media) {
                $selected = (has_term($media->slug, 'country', $post->ID)) ? ' selected="selected" ' : '';
		echo "<option value='" . $media->name . "' " . $selected . ">" . $media->name . "</option>\n";
	}
    ?>
    </select>    

    </li>
    <?php
}

/**

add_action( 'wpuf_add_post_form_after_description', 'wpufe_country', 10, 2 );

function wpufe_media_validation( $errors ) {
    if( $_POST['post_media'] == '' ) {
        $errors[] = 'Please select a country';
    }

    return $errors;
}
add_filter( 'wpuf_add_post_validation', 'wpufe_media_validation' );

    add_action('save_post', 'save_country_data');

/**

function save_country_data($post_id) {
// verify this came from our screen and with proper authorization.

 	if ( !wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['nonce-country'], __FILE__ )) {
    	return $post_id;
  	}

  	// verify if this is an auto save routine. If it is our form has not been submitted, so we dont want to do anything
        // maybe you'll find this unnecessary since there is no possible autosave in the frontend
  	if ( defined('DOING_AUTOSAVE') && DOING_AUTOSAVE )
    	return $post_id;

  	// Check permissions
  	if ( 'anecdote' == $_POST['post_type'] ) {
    	if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_page', $post_id ) )
            return $post_id;
  	} else {
            if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_post', $post_id ) )
            return $post_id;
  	}

  	// OK, we're authenticated: we need to find and save the data

        $post = get_post($post_id);
	if ($post->post_type == 'country') {
           $media = $_POST['post_media'];
	   wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, $media, 'country' );
        }
}

hii J Grandin

your code very helpd me. but i want to make anther drop down to anther post type with difrent taxomony. withe IF the post type =x then get drop down 1 , else get drop sown tow.

sory for my english and thanks

oded

Changed over to the 1.1.0-fork-2RRR-4.4 alpha version by professor99 and my taxonomy dropdowns no longer appear on the add and edit forms, has anyone else encountered this problem if so could you please give me some advice as I am stumped.

I found that the action hook is called differently in the forked version. In the examples on this thread the action hook is added like this

add_action( 'wpuf_add_post_form_after_description', 'wpufe_taxonomy_type', 10, 2 );

and called in the original add and edit files using the following code:

do_action( 'wpuf_add_post_form_after_description', $post_type );

in the forked version this code is used to call the action hook:

do_action( 'wpuf_post_form', 'add', 'after_description', $post_type, $post );

is there any way I can modify the code in my functions.php so it shows in the add and edit pages without editing the plugin code.

Cheers
