单击按钮时将变量从 php 传递到 javascript

Question

Hi I am trying to pass a variable on button click from a php function to javascript. The output is undefined for some reason but at the php function the variable does contain data. Any idea why this is happening?

PHP:

    add_filter( 'page_row_actions', 'create_pdf_row_actions', 10, 2 );
function create_pdf_row_actions( $actions, WP_Post $post ) {
    if ( $post->post_type != 'item' ) {
        return $actions;
    }

   # $actions['create-pdf'] = "<a href='#?id=".$post->ID."'  >Create PDF</a>";
    $actions['create-pdf'] = "<a href='#?id=".$post->ID."'  >Create PDF".$post->ID."</a>";
    return $actions;
}

Javascript:

  jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $('.create-pdf').on('click', function () {
        alert("button"+ $(this).data("id"));
    }); 
  });
    

Answer 1

Assuming from the piece of code, You can try:

Calling the PHP function within jQuery by using the <?php?> tags. Since $actions['create-pdf'] is inside an array, use print_r to output the variable, or use foreach loop if you have multipile key-value pairs

jQuery's .data() accesses an element's dataset but the id in your link appears to be in the URL fragment of the href attribute.

You have two options...

1. Add the appropriate data-id attribute to your link

   $actions['create-pdf'] = sprintf( '<a href="#?id=%1$s" data-id="%1$s">Create PDF%1$s</a>', htmlspecialchars($post->ID) );

    $(".create-pdf").on("click", "a[data-id]", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); alert(`button${$(this).data("id")}`); });

2. Or, extract the id from the params in the URL fragment

    $(".create-pdf").on("click", "a[href]", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); const url = new URL(this.href); const params = new URLSearchParams(url.hash.slice(1)); alert(`button${params.get("id")}`); });
