Automatically move Wordpress post from one page to another after date has passed

I'm designing a website for a local performing arts venue, and I would like to add some code so that specific event posts on the "Events" page will automatically be moved from "Events" to a different "Past Performances" page after the date of the event has passed. I've looked around for any existing solution to this query and haven't yet found one.

Create a child theme or add page-events.php and page-past-performances.php, you may copy/paste your current theme page.php code.
Here you may choose 2 options:
Create a special loop for each template. For page-events.php:
<?php
$today = getdate();
$args = array('date_query' => array(
array(
'after' => array(
'year' => $today['year'],
'month' => $today['mon'],
'day' => $today['mday'],
),
'inclusive' => true
)
));
$query = WP_Query($args);
//Here goes the loop
For page-past-performances.php:
<?php
$today = getdate();
$args = array('date_query' => array(
array(
'before' => array(
'year' => $today['year'],
'month' => $today['mon'],
'day' => $today['mday'],
),
inclusive => false
)
));
$query = WP_Query($args);
//Here goes the loop
The second option uses the action hook pre_get_posts, it could look something like this (inside your functions.php file):
<?php
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'date_filter');
function date_filter($query) {
if($query->pagename == 'events') {
$query->set('date_query', [[
'after' => //same as above
'inclusive' => true
]]);
}
if($query->pagename == 'past-performances') {
$query->set('date_query', [[
'before' => //same as above
'inclusive' => false
]]);
}
}
?>

Inserting a array of php values into a select options via javascript

I have multiple select elements, and each select form is either a block type or a block content. So in total i have around 10 select elements, 5 of which are block type and 5 are block content. The select options of block content will be determined by what the user select in block type.
I have 3 arrays (property, blogs, message), which have the values needed for block content.
So what i need to do is-
check what the user has selected for block type- which i have done.
Populate the block content with the relevant values- this is where i am having problems.
Here is my javascript code so far
$(".blockTypeWrapper .blockType").change(function() {
var currentBlock = $(this).val();
var blockContent = $(this).parent().siblings('.blockContentWrapper .blockContent');
if (currentBlock == '1') {
var option = document.createElement("option");
var propertyData = <?php echo $properties; ?>;
$.each(propertyData, function() {
options.append(new Option(option.text, option.value));
});
};
if (currentBlock == '2') {
$(this).siblings(".blockContent").addClass("active");
};
if (currentBlock == '3') {
$(this).siblings(".blockContent").addClass("active");
};
});
Ignore the currentBlock == '2' and 3 code, i am just trying to get it working for one first.
If there are any other easier way of achieving this then i'm all ears.
EDIT
echo $this->Form->input('main_block_type',
array(
'options' => array(
1 => 'Property',
2 => 'Blogs',
3 => 'Message'
),
'label' => 'Main Block Type',
'empty' => 'Please Select',
'class' => 'blockType',
'div' => array(
'class' => 'blockTypeWrapper'
)
)
);
echo $this->Form->input('main_block',
array(
'options' => $blogs,
'label' => 'Main Block Content',
'empty' => 'Please Select',
'class' => 'blockContent',
'div' => array(
'class' => 'blockContentWrapper'
)
)
);
Thanks

You can't access Array with echo. You need to access with:
<?php echo json_encode($properties); ?>;
try below code:
if (currentBlock == '1') {
var propertyData = <?php echo json_encode($properties); ?>;
$(".blockContent").empty(); // You can remove all the options by using empty() function.
$.each(propertyData, function (i, item) {
$('.blockContent').append($('<option>', {
value: item.value,
text: item.text
}));
});
}
PHP Array of properties should be like this:
$properties = array(
'item1' => array('text' => 'item1 text', 'value' => 'item 1 value'),
'item2' => array('text' => 'item2 text', 'value' => 'item 2 value'),
'item3' => array('text' => 'item3 text', 'value' => 'item 3 value')
);

How to get value of checked gridview column

Hi guys i have a gridview like below
and i want to get the 'user_id' of the checked column
how can i do that???
I could easily get the checked column id but i dont know how to get data of those checked column in gridview
i want to get it via javascript so that i can pass it to service
<?= GridView::widget([
'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
'filterModel' => $searchModel,
'showOnEmpty'=>true,
'columns' => [
['class' => 'yii\grid\CheckboxColumn'],
[
'attribute' => 'event_id',
'label' => 'Event Title',
'value' => 'event.title'
],
[
'attribute' => 'user_id',
'label' => 'Email',
'value' => 'users.email',
],
'user_type',
],
]);
?>
and here is my javascript to get ids of checked column
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
btnCheck = $("#send");
btnCheck.click(function() {
var keys = $("#w0").yiiGridView("getSelectedRows");
}
});
Let me tell you the flow of this
On homepage is a gridview like this
Now user will click on that small user sign and that will open the page you can see below
Thats when i want to send messages to all selected users
Because in my case title is from different table and name and email are from different table so i want ids of user table
For that i want user_id but i am getting some random values
What can i do here???
I tried this but its returning some random string
public function search($params)
{
if(!isset($_GET['id'])){
$id='';
}
else{
$id=$_GET['id'];
}
$query = Checkin::find()->where(['event_id'=> $id]);
$query->joinWith(['event', 'users']);
$dataProvider = new ActiveDataProvider([
'query' => $query,
]);
$this->load($params);
if (!$this->validate()) {
return $dataProvider;
}
$query->andFilterWhere([
'id' => $this->id,
'created_date' => $this->created_date,
'created_by' => $this->created_by,
'updated_date' => $this->updated_date,
'updated_by' => $this->updated_by,
]);
$query->andFilterWhere(['like', 'user.email', $this->user_id]);
$query->andFilterWhere(['like', 'user_type', $this->user_type]);
$dataProvider->keys ='user_id';
return $dataProvider;
}

Update your DataProvider set $dataProvider->keys ='userId' then you will able to get all keys of user_id
data-id of GridView and get allSelectedColumns

You need to just replace this code
['class' => 'yii\grid\CheckboxColumn'],
with below code
[
'class' => 'yii\grid\CheckboxColumn',
'checkboxOptions' => function($data) {
return ['value' => $data->user_id];
},
],

wordpress custom query - orderby title will not work

I am having a problem getting a custom query to alphabetize. It keeps defaulting to displaying in the order of the date it was posted. Below is my php function.
function json_info2() {
// The $_REQUEST contains all the data sent via ajax
if ( isset($_REQUEST) ) {
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
// get values for all three drop-down menus
$status = $_REQUEST['status'];
$industry = $_REQUEST['services'];
$state = $_REQUEST['state'];
// array of values for each of the three drop-downs
$statusAll = array('complete','incomplete');
$industryAll = array('mining','textile','machinery');
$statesAll = array('SC','TX','WA');
// set $statusArray dependent on whether or not "all" is selected in the dropdown menu
if($status == "all") {
$statusArray = array( 'key' => 'status', 'value' => $statusAll, 'compare' => 'IN');
} else {
$statusArray = array( 'key' => 'status', 'value' => $status, 'compare' => '=');
}
if($industry == "all") {
$industryArray = array( 'key' => 'industry', 'value' => $industryAll, 'compare' => 'IN');
} else {
$industryArray = array( 'key' => 'industry', 'value' => $industry, 'compare' => '=');
}
if($state == "all") {
$stateArray = array( 'key' => 'state', 'value' => $statesAll, 'compare' => 'IN');
} else {
$stateArray = array( 'key' => 'state', 'value' => $state, 'compare' => '=');
}
$pages = array(
'post_type' => 'page',
'orderby' => 'title',
'order' => 'ASC',
'paged' => $paged,
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'meta_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND',
$statusArray,
$industryArray,
$stateArray,
array(
'key' => '_wp_page_template',
'value' => 'template-individual-project.php',
'compare' => '='
)
)
);
// query results by page template
$my_query = new WP_Query($pages);
if($my_query->have_posts()) :
while($my_query->have_posts()) :
$my_query->the_post();
<li>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</li>
<?php
endwhile;endif;
wp_reset_query();
} // end of isset
?>
<?php
die();
}
add_action( 'wp_ajax_json_info2', 'json_info2' );
add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_json_info2', 'json_info2' );
?>
This above function is called by the ajax function that follows:
function do_ajax() {
// Get values from all three dropdown menus
var state = $('#states').val();
var markets = $('#markets').val();
var services = $('#services').val();
$.ajax({
url: ajaxurl,
data: {
'action' : 'json_info2',
'state' : state,
'status' : markets,
'services' : services
},
success:function(moredata) {
// This outputs the result of the ajax request
$('#project-list').html( moredata );
$('#project-list').fadeIn();
}/*,
error: function(errorThrown){
var errorMsg = "No results match your criteria";
$('#project-list').html(errorMsg);
}*/
}); // end of ajax call
} // end of function do_ajax
Is there something simple that I'm missing here? I have a similar custom query on the page when it loads (although that initial load query doesn't have the select menu values as args), and they display in alphabetical order just fine. It's only after the ajax call to filter the list that they are no longer in order.

I have found the issue after googling the problem for quite a while. I read that some of the people who were having this problem found that their theme was using a plugin called Post Types Order. It overrides the ability to set the orderby arg.
I looked at the plugins, and sure enough, Post Types Order was there. Everything I read said that the problem could be solved by unchecking "auto sort" in the settings for the plugin. However, I did that, and orderby still didn't work. I had to completely deactivate the plugin to get orderby title to work.

get all IDs of selected checkbox in Yii using javascript

I am trying to get the IDs of all the selected check boxes in yii using JAVASCRIPT. Now i am able to get only the first element ID. Can anyone please suggest the correct code to get all the check box ID.
My View:
<input type="button" value="Multiple Host Date Entries" onclick="act();" />
<div id="grid"></div>
<?php
//zii.widgets.grid.CGridView bootstrap.widgets.TbExtendedGridView
$obj=$this->widget('bootstrap.widgets.TbExtendedGridView', array(
'id'=>'host_grid',
'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
'type' => 'striped bordered',
//'filter' => $model,
//'type' => 'striped bordered condensed',
//'summaryText' => false,
////'afterAjaxUpdate'=>'\'changeTRColor()\'',
//'itemView'=>'_view',
'columns'=>array(
array(
'id' => 'selectedIds',
'class' => 'CCheckBoxColumn',
'selectableRows'=>2,
'value' => '$data->host_id',
'checkBoxHtmlOptions' => array('name' => 'idList[]'),
),
array( // display 'create_time' using an expression
'name'=>'host_name',
'value'=>'$data->host_name',
),
array(
'name'=>'host_serviceid',
'value'=>'$data->host_serviceid',
),
array(
'name'=>'status',
'value'=>'$data->status',
),
array(
'class'=>'CButtonColumn',
'template'=>'{edit_date}{update}{delete}',
'htmlOptions'=>array('width'=>'95px'),
'buttons' => array(
'update'=> array(
'label' => 'Update',
'imageUrl' => Yii::app()->baseUrl.'/images/icons/a.png',
),
'delete'=> array(
'label' => 'Delete',
'imageUrl' => Yii::app()->baseUrl.'/images/icons/d.png',
),
'edit_date' => array( //the name {reply} must be same
'label' => 'Add Date', // text label of the button
'url' => 'Yii::app()->createAbsoluteUrl("NimsoftHostsDetails/View", array("id"=>$data->host_id))', //Your URL According to your wish
'imageUrl' => Yii::app()->baseUrl.'/images/icons/m.png', // image URL of the button. If not set or false, a text link is used, The image must be 16X16 pixels
),
),)
),
))
;
?>
I must select some check boxes and click on multiple host date entries button to go to the specific controller.
My JavaScript:
function act()
{
var idList=$("input[type=checkbox]:checked").serializeArray();
var jsonStr = JSON.stringify(idList);
/* Object.keys(idList).forEach(function(key) {
console.log(key, idList[key]);
alert(idList[key]);
});*/
var a=$("input[type=checkbox]:checked").val();
alert(a);
if(idList!="")
{
if(confirm("Add Dates for multiple hosts?"))
{
var url='<?php echo $this->createUrl('Nimsoft/Date_all',array('idList'=>'val_idList')); ?>';
url=url.replace('val_idList',jsonStr);
//url=url.replace('val_idList',json_encode(idList));
//alert(url);
window.open(url);
/*$.post('Date_all',idList,function(response)
{
$.fn.yiiGridView.update("host_grid");
});*/
}
}
else
{
alert("Please Select atleast one host");
}
}
I need to pass the IDs to NIMSOFT controller so that I can have a for loop to process each one of those.

you can retrieve the checked column in client side (javasctipt):
var idArray = $(gridID).yiiGridView('getChecked', columnID);
// or
$.fn.yiiGridView.getSelection(gridID);

For all checked row ids we use this
var id = $.fn.yiiGridView.getChecked("your-grid-id", "selectedIds"); // array of seleted id's from grid
