I am trying to use the hook_webform_submission_insert in my theme template.php file. I have 2 other webform hooks currently running in here and they work just fine. I am trying to get the submission data after it has been submitted. Below is my code.
function acquarius_hook_webform_submission_insert($node, $submission){
var_dump($node);
var_dump($submission);
}
I am sure I am missing something small here but everything I try seems to fail.
You need to replace hook keyword with your theme name. Also add hook functions in module.
YOURTHEMENAME_webform_submission_insert($node, $submission){
// give your code here
}
After you create a new hook, you need to clear the drupal caches.
Go to YOURSITE.com/admin/config/development/performance
And click on "Clear all caches"

I'm fairly new to Wordpress development so please excuse if my question is dumb.
I'm trying to call a REST API when CF7 is submitted. So I've tried to hook into both wpcf7_before_send_mail and wpcf7_mail_sent but to no avail. Whenever I put this code in my theme's functions.php file; the form doesn't submit and keeps on loading (like it's trying to submit)
For simplicity's sake, I tried to do a simple redirect as you see in the following code but that's not working either. The form works when I remove the following code from functions.php file.
add_action("wpcf7_mail_sent", "wpcf7_do_something_else");
function wpcf7_do_something_else($cf7) {
wp_redirct('https://google.com');
}
Please advise what I am doing wrong. Thank you very much!
It keeps loading because it's an ajax function and you are trying to use 'wp_redirect' in it and that won't work.
The 'wpcf7_mail_sent' hook is working fine, you can test that by using something like that
add_action("wpcf7_mail_sent", "wpcf7_do_something_else");
function wpcf7_do_something_else($cf7) {
var_dump($cf7);exit;
}
And while sending the form monitor the 'network' tab in the dev tools of your browser to see the results and you will find that it returns an object of the submitted data.
I am developing a custom theme. After my theme is activated/installed I need to run a one time only function that will set some options. What is the best action to hook for this?
Should I use after_setup_theme? My understanding is that this event/action fires on each page load so I don't think I should use this action correct?
*Ps: is it best to place this code in my functions.php file or somewhere else? (I am using the underscores theme template).
You should look at after_switch_theme action. It'll fired only on your theme activation( just one time ). So, your one time function will look:
add_action('after_switch_theme', 'my_one_time_function');
function my_one_time_function () {
//Your code
}
Code goes to functions.php file.
P.S. If you want to run some function before deactivating theme, you can use switch_theme hook. It has same use as after_switch_theme.
I just started working with Wordpress (v. 3.6.1).
I have OptionTree installed and as it seems it handles the Theme Options page. I want to run my function (in a plugin or wherever else) right after the user saves the changes of this page.
So far I found out that option-tree/includes/ot-settings-api.php generates the form and it sets the form action to options.php (which is a wordpress core file). I was thinking about change the action to my custom php file and handle the save procedure and finally runs my own function. But this solution looks pretty ugly.
I wonder if there's another way to get the job done.
Thanks.
Thanks to #Sheikh Heera link (tutsplus) I could find a solution.
I think this is some kind of hack and I still don't know if it is the best way. Anyway I did this:
Create a file your-theme-settings.php in your theme lib folder.
Let Wordpress knows about your file by adding this code in your theme functions.php:
include_once('lib/your-theme-settings.php');
Add this code to your-theme-settings.php:
function your_theme_register_settings() {
register_setting('option_tree', 'option_tree', 'your_theme_validate_options');
}
function your_theme_validate_options($input) {
// do whatever you have to do with $input.
}
add_action('admin_init', 'your_theme_register_settings');
In step 3, I put 'option_tree' as 1st and 2nd argument of register_settings function, because I noticed that the Option Group and Option Name of OptionTree plugin is option_tree.
I'm not sure if this is the best solution, so I would be glad if you shares your ideas.
I am facing the following issue :
I used to keep all the styling in a theme options page. When the user clicked the save button, i had a backend script that generated a css file with the changes so that they will not be output inline in each page. This has a lot of benefits, amongst them caching.
I have switched to the Theme Customizer, and everything is fine except i can't find a way to hook into the the "save" button. I would like to trigger a function that updates the content of the css file when that button is clicked in the backend.
Is this even possible ?
Thanks !
Since WordPress 3.6.0 you can now call customize_save_after.
<?php
function emailAdmin(){
mail('your#email', 'Woza!', 'You won\'t believe this but someone has updated the theme customizations!!');
}
add_action( 'customize_save_after', 'emailAdmin' );
?>
More info: http://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/customize_save_after/
I'm facing the same situation. The customize_save works BEFORE the options are saved, so that's out. I've emailed Otto (ottodestruct.com) about it.
The solution I have right now is as follows:
add_action('customize_save', 'regenCSS', 100);
function regenCSS( $wp_customize ) {
checkCSSRegen(); // Checks if I need to regen and does so
set_theme_mod('regen-css', time()+3); // Waits 3 seconds until everything is saved
}
function checkCSSRegen() {
if (get_theme_mod('regen-css') != "" && get_theme_mod('regen-css') < time()) {
makecss();
remove_theme_mod('regen-css');
}
}
I also add an extra checkCSSRegen(); to my customize_controls_init function.
Again, this is a little bit of a hack. Unfortunately, it's the best I can find to do at the time.
Another option would be to use a ajax response that just pings a php file. That feels even more of a hack than this.
Another quick hack would be to do a javascript action that when the save button is clicked, it sets a timer to delay a call to a PHP file that runs the compile. That is VERY hacky to me.
The only fallback of the above, is unless the customizer is reloaded or another value saved, you may not get all the values you want.
Anyone else have a better idea?
** Update **
Just added the following request to the Wordpress team. Hopefully we'll get it squeezed in there.
http://wordpress.org/ideas/topic/do-customize_save-action-hook-after-the-settings-are-saved?replies=3#post-24853
* Update 2 *
Looks like it will be in the 3.6 release as customize_save_after. Guess a few tweets and example code can make stuff happen even with the Wordpress team. ;)
As describe by #Dovy already you can hook customize_save_after to do this now:
do_action('customize_save_after', 'savesettings', 99);
When savesettings save settings to a file it will be bad practice to do this with native php file functions (like file_put_contents()) as described here: http://ottopress.com/2011/tutorial-using-the-wp_filesystem/ by #otto.
Solution for file saving will be to use wp_filesystem. To use wp_filesystem you will need the file credentials (ftp) of the user.
customize_save_after will be called in a AJAX request and the result won't be visible. Cause of the AJAX handle you can't ask the user for the file credentials which requires a form submit.
Solution can be found by saving the file credentials to wp-config.php and add them ( temporary ) to the database. Doing this savesettings can read the credentials from the database and use them to save the file by using credentials. (this solution is described in more detail here: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/126631/31759)
Not tested, but there is the action hook customize_save in /wp-includes/class-wp-customize-manager.php.
It's inside the save() function:
/**
* Switch the theme and trigger the save action of each setting.
*
* #since 3.4.0
*/
There are some other interesting action hooks (do_action) in this file that may be worth check.
I would like to create a plugin that uses the contact form 7 hook, wpcf7_admin_after_mail. I want to use the plugin to interface with a CRM system. What I have thus far is the following:
//plugin header here
function add_to_CRM( $cf7 )
{
if (isset($cf7->posted_data["your-message"]))
{
full_contact($cf7);
} else {
quick_quote($cf7);
}
return $cf7;
}
add_action('wpcf7_admin_after_mail', 'add_to_CRM');
//other functions here
I can't seem to get this working. I can't even get the hook to work and do something like mail me. Anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong here. Since I have limited Wordpress experience I might me missing the boat completely with what I'm trying to do here. I've Googled for answers to no end.
EDIT: I ended up adding this to the theme's functions.php file and it works perfectly. Thing is, I want to get it working as a plugin. Any help will be appreciated.
Try delaying the add_action() call, something like;
add_action('init', create_function('',
'add_action("wpcf7_admin_after_mail", "add_to_CRM");'));
This actually registers your CF7 hook once WordPress is ready (which is nearer the time functions.php gets loaded in).
