在使用AJAX提交帖子之后，使用AJAX显示帖子

Question

Submitting new Posts with a Front End Form, using:

• http://malsup.github.com/jquery.form.js
• Default WP jQuery ( wp_enqueue_script("jquery"); )

• below code to submit form (new post)

  jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery("[id^=cred_form_1614]").ajaxForm(function() { alert("Thank you for your comment!"); }); });

This submits and saves my posts to the WordPress DB fine and correctly.

Is there a fine method to now get the (freshly inserted) Post form the DB and display it instead of keeping display my form?

I can achieve it with reloading the entire page, but I would like to display the new post with AJAX

I understand I shall change the "success" action which currently is "alert" to something else, like "display post"?

I am not sure how I would insert (I suppose I need this) WP Query in a jQuery code? I can do that with PHP, but not with jQuery/AJAX

Does anybody have experience on this?

Basically, it has to "update" the currently viewed page (where my form sits) and display the post(s) instead.

As requested, this is my Form (rendered) HTML to create the post(s):

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" id="cred_form_1614_1" class="cred-form cred-keep-original" action="/site/cred-ajax/?_tt=1436915840" method="post">

<label id="wpt-form-message" data-message-single="The post was not saved because of the following problem:<br />%PROBLEMS_UL_LIST" data-message-plural="The post was not saved because of the following %NN problems:<br />%PROBLEMS_UL_LIST" style="display:none;" class="wpt-top-form-error wpt-form-error">test</label>

UPDATE::

I achieved to display the (single) new post after submitting it with this:

jQuery(document).ready(function() { 
jQuery("[id^=cred_form_1614]").ajaxForm(function(data) {
    if (data.length > 0) {
        jQuery('.page').empty();
      jQuery('.page').html(data);
    }
});
});

Answer 1

I'm not sure what element you want to update with the response because you didn't include any HTML in your question. The code below will append the data from the server side into an element of your choosing.

$(function(){
    jQuery("[id^=cred_form_1614]").ajaxForm(function(data) {
        if (data.length > 0) {
            $('.someElement').append(data);
        }
    });
});
