i have a short question. Is there a way how to add custom JS when the user clicks on a URL Button of a table? I had no success how to correctly identify the id of that row.
It would be great if you could provide me a short example/idea how it could work.
My aim is to trigger a simple alert when the user clicks the url button.
Rows are stored as evens and odds - there are no row numbers in the code.
You could probably use some of our filters and hooks to do this, but it'd have to be custom developed, and unfortunately custom work is not included in the provided support for the plugin.
well, i figured out how it can work, so maybe you are wrong. There is quite a simple solution for that imo.
If you just create a simple concat in the sql query like this
CONCAT('<button type="button", class="anmeldung_ablehnen", id=', turnier_id, '>Click Me!</button>') AS test
you are able to address the button with jquery by the class selector
jQuery(document).on( 'click', '.anmeldung_ablehnen', function (e) {
and you can get the id by
var turnier_id = this.id;
I still havent tried further yet, but that means that i can now write custom JS code with e.g. an ajax request to do whatever i want with the row and its id.
I am really interested how you solved this, is it possible to give more of an explanation, what type of code did you use? where you issued the sql statement?
I am trying to add data to a cell in a row from another input, ie if cell one is "Apple" cell 2 should be filled with an integer of 1 but hidden using javascript, I cant seem to use an integer as a foreign key ???
Sorry to intrude on your post but seemed very interesting how you accomplished this. many thanks Neil
well all tables i use are generated by the sql query option. So my sql query looks something like this:
SELECT anmeldung_id, turnier_id, ..., CONCAT('<button type="button", class="anmeldung_annehmen", id=', turnier_id, '_', anmeldung_id ,'_', status_id , '>Anmeldung annehmen</button>') AS anmeldung_annehmen, CONCAT('<button type="button", class="anmeldung_ablehnen", id=', turnier_id, '_', anmeldung_id ,'_', status_id , '>Anmeldung ablehnen</button>') AS anmeldung_ablehnen FROM ... WHERE ....
I have set the columns for the concat statetments just to the data type string. A simple button is displayed in the frontend then.
In the custom JS section of my theme i added something like this:
jQuery(document).on( 'click', '.anmeldung_annehmen', function (e) { var id = this.id; var split = id.split("_"); var turnier_id = split[0]; var anmeldung_id = split[1]; var status = split[2];
With this code i can trigger some JS when the button with class anmeldung_annehmen is clicked.
With the split function i can read all the ids (or whatever you have used for the id of the button) into a variable.

Hello Michael.
Rows are stored as evens and odds - there are no row numbers in the code.
You could probably use some of our filters and hooks to do this, but it'd have to be custom developed, and unfortunately custom work is not included in the provided support for the plugin.
I guess a hook like this may help:

Hello Michael.
You are correct, and that may just work.
But, you'd be assigning an ID yourself here "id=', turnier_id, ' ", correct?
What I said is that rows are recorded like this:
So, they have no ID by default, but with your custom solution, it just may be possible.

Hi Neil,

SELECT anmeldung_id, turnier_id, ...,
CONCAT('<button type="button", class="anmeldung_annehmen", id=', turnier_id, '_', anmeldung_id ,'_', status_id , '>Anmeldung annehmen</button>') AS anmeldung_annehmen,
CONCAT('<button type="button", class="anmeldung_ablehnen", id=', turnier_id, '_', anmeldung_id ,'_', status_id , '>Anmeldung ablehnen</button>') AS anmeldung_ablehnen
FROM ... WHERE ....
I have set the columns for the concat statetments just to the data type string. A simple button is displayed in the frontend then.
In the custom JS section of my theme i added something like this:
jQuery(document).on( 'click', '.anmeldung_annehmen', function (e) {
var id = this.id;
var split = id.split("_");
var turnier_id = split[0];
var anmeldung_id = split[1];
var status = split[2];
With this code i can trigger some JS when the button with class anmeldung_annehmen is clicked.
With the split function i can read all the ids (or whatever you have used for the id of the button) into a variable.
