如果联系表单7在AJAX提交中返回无效字段，则运行自定义函数

Question

I'm using the WordPress plugin Contact Form 7 and I need to manipulate some data if there is an error on a specific field, not sure if this can be done with hooks or anything as I need to run some JavaScript code and not PHP, so I'm assuming I would need to attach a onclick event when the user attempts to submit the form?

If it can be done with a hook someway I assume it would be done with this one .

If it can be done with a hook, what is the best way to achieve this? If not, I guess it would be easy enough to attach an onclick event to the button, but I'm unsure how I can get it to run only if there is a validation error and after the CF7 JS code has already run?

The HTML of the form:

<div role="form" class="wpcf7" id="wpcf7-f1304-p10-o1" lang="en-US" dir="ltr">
    <div class="screen-reader-response"></div>
    <form name="" action="/freetrademarksearch/#wpcf7-f1304-p10-o1" method="post" class="wpcf7-form" enctype="multipart/form-data" novalidate="novalidate">
        <div style="display: none;">

Answer 1

Possibly the easiest way to achieve this is to enqueue your scripts after Contact Form 7's (via functions.php or your custom plugin), add a new function and bind it to DOMSubtreeModified , and check the form for errors.

When validation fails, Contact Form 7's AJAX function adds a span element with a class of wpcf7-not-valid-tip (as seen in the source ).

You can target this for your specific field, by doing something similar to the following:

Example JS:

(function($){
    $('div.wpcf7 > form').submit(function(){
        // The name of a single field you're interested in targeting 
        var fieldName = 'some-field-name';

        $(this).find('span.' + fieldName).bind('DOMSubtreeModified', function(event) {
            // If an error has been appended to this input's parent span, do something
            if ( $(this).children('.wpcf7-not-valid-tip').length ) {
                // RUN YOUR FUNCTION HERE

                // Prevent this function from running multiple times
                $(this).off(event);
            }
        });
    });
})(jQuery);

Enqueue your scripts with, wpcf7_enqueue_scripts , to enqueue them after the default Contact Form 7 scripts (your path will likely be different):

/**
 * Enqueue Scripts with CF7 Dependencies
 */
function so30727367_enqueue_scripts() {
    wp_enqueue_script( 'stackoverflow-scripts', plugin_dir_url(__FILE__) . 'scripts.js', array('jquery'), null, true );
}
add_action( 'wpcf7_enqueue_scripts', 'so30727367_enqueue_scripts' );

Answer 2

you can make use of form submition event:

//attach handler on form submit
var formID = "myForm";
$('form#' + formID).submit(catchSubmit);

then you will need stop form submission and you will post it yourself, file upload case as well included in this hook, as well response from server can be catch in JavaScript and handled:

//custom handler for form submit
                    function catchSubmit(event) {
                        var uploadFileType = $('form#' + formID).attr('enctype') != undefined ? $('form#' + formID).attr('enctype').indexOf('multipart/form-data') != -1 ? true : false : false; //test if form has upload file functionality
                        event.preventDefault(); //stop html form post
                        if (uploadFileType) {
                            //ajax call for model + file upload
                            $.ajax({
                                url: $(this).attr("action"),
                                type: 'POST',
                                data: new FormData(this),
                                success: postSuccessHandler,
                                processData: false,
                                contentType: false
                            });
                            return;
                        }
                        else {
                            // ajax call for simple model/inputs
                            $.post($(this).attr("action"),
                               $(this).serialize(),
                               postSuccessHandler
                               );
                        }
                    }

and a post success handler where you can interpret your response for server:

function postSuccessHandler(data) {
//do something with returned html, json whatever
}

Answer 3

Here's some code to get you started:

$(function () {
    // Optional nice scroll function
    function scrollTop(myTop){
        var myTop = (typeof myTop==='undefined'||myTop === null) ? 150 : myTop;
        $("html, body").animate({
        scrollTop: myTop
        }, 300);
    }
    $('.wpcf7-form').submit(function(event){
        var valid = true;
        $('[aria-required]').each(function(i,ele){
            if(ele.value == ''){
                $(this).parent().parent().addClass('alert');
                console.log('Required field empty: '+ ele.name);
                valid = false;
            }
        });

        // Handle additional validation here, set valid too false if it does not pass

        if (!valid){
            event.preventDefault();
            scrollTop();
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    });
});

EDIT:

Or the on_sent_ok: "doFunction();" Link

Or you could just see if the form has an error on page load:

$(function () {
    function checkErrors(){
        var invalid = $('.wpcf7-form').hasClass('invalid');
        var error = $('.wpcf7-form').hasClass('error');
        if (!invalid && !error) {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
    checkErrors();
});
