Really struggling to think of a solution to this problem. I have thought anchor links might help (using the #example on the end of a link to scroll to a position on the page) but not sure how best to implement them.
So on the homepage of my site I have a list of links, that correlate to tabs on another page.
The links on the homepage:
(What is e-Bate, What are rebates etc.)
Links
When you click one of the tabs on the other page, it activates a script which shows a certain div below:
Tabs
This is how the tabs are shown:
HTML:
<div class="page-links">
<ul>
<li>What is e-Bate?</li>
<li>What are rebates?</li>
<li>e-Bate features</li>
<li>How e-Bate works</li>
<li>Case studies</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="page-contents">
<div id="whatebate" class="hideshowdiv">
<?php echo CFS()->get('whatisebate'); ?>
</div>
<div id="whatrebate" class="hideshowdiv">
<?php echo CFS()->get('what_are_rebates'); ?>
</div>
<div id="ebatefeat" class="hideshowdiv">
<?php echo CFS()->get('e_bate_features'); ?>
</div>
<div id="howebate" class="hideshowdiv">
<?php echo CFS()->get('how_e_bate_works'); ?>
</div>
<div id="casestud" class="hideshowdiv">
<?php echo CFS()->get('case_studies'); ?>
</div>
</div>
jQuery:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery(".page-contents div.hideshowdiv").hide();
// Show chosen div, and hide all others
jQuery("a").click(function (e)
{
//e.preventDefault();
jQuery("#" + jQuery(this).attr("class")).fadeIn().siblings('div.hideshowdiv').hide();
});
});
So when one of the links is clicked on the homepage, for instance, the 'What is e-Bate?' link, I want it to go to the other page, and click the corresponding tab, showing the content for that section. Is this possible? Thanks in advance.
This is very possible and you had half the equation with the anchors. Now you just need to write a small function to parse out the URL and check for a certain tag.
So something like this:
$(function(){
if (location.href.indexOf("#example") != -1) {
//This is where you put your function to show the tab
}
if (location.href.indexOf("#anotherexample") != -1) {
//This is where you put your function to show the tab
}
})
Well, if you can use PHP, then it is indeed pretty easy:
First, you need to create a PHP file, obvious with an input parameter, preference, two GET variables, the first one being the link of the page you want to visit and the second one can be, well that depends on how you want it to be, it can be a div id, or a div class or pretty much id of anything you want to click on the second site (You MUST KNOW which button/link you want to click on the second site)
Then first in your php code, store these two things into variables, Let us take $Path and $DivToClick,
Now, use this PHP function:
file_get_contents(path,include_path,context,start,max_length)
Here, the path is an required field, rest is all optional.. and then after that, echo a JQuery code which will do something like this
function ClickTheButton ()
{
$('#divId').click ();
}
Now, let me explain what we are doing here... First, you are sending link to a php script that get all the contents of that webpage and display it on my screen, and then when you are echo-ing the JQuery code, you are telling browser, that yes, this is the part of the page, execute it and simulate the action of click on this page, and thus the click action is simulated and things are done as per your need...
Hope this helps... :)

I have a JSON object which store data about a website RSS feed:
var varNameSpace = <?php echo json_encode($article); ?>;
and I'm on the way to develop a Ticker, I need to display all objects elements on <li> tags and add the effect of scrolling dynamically.
Before I have used a javascript function to do that scrolling my javascript function look like:
<script>
var boutton=document.getElementById("start");
function startTicker(){
$("#news li:first").slideUp(function(){
$(this).appendTo($("#news")).slideDown();
});
}
boutton.onclick=setInterval(startTicker, 3000);
</script>
my HTML page look like:
<div>
<?php
foreach(getFeed() as $article){
?>
<ul id="news">
<li><h3><?php echo $article['title']; ?></h3></li>
</ul>
<p>
<?php echo $article['description']; ?>
</p>
<?php
}
?>
</div>
Once I execute this page, it was just the first element of the list which scroll the other list elements was considered as a unique element.
So, how can i scroll over all the list elements ?
I haven't tested your code, but I suspect the li:first has something to do with only selecting the first element.
No need to reinvent the wheel with this though, there are some great plugins out there that can achieve what you're asking for with minimal effort.
One such example that I've used before is http://richhollis.github.io/vticker/
It was quite easy to implement, and as you're already using jQuery won't require you to load any additional libraries.
On the other hand, if you're set on writing your own, this CodePen by Noel Killebrew looks like it would be a good starting point https://codepen.io/noelietrex/pen/ZGGoZM
I am writing a simple Wordpress child theme.
There is a portfolio feature which uses flexslider to display the thumbnail from the most recent posts and, when clicking on them, it uses ajax to open up the post content in a div on the page.
I have written a category page based on this, which pulls out all the post categories and displays the thumbnail for the most recent post. However, when I click on the thumbnail, I need the page to go to a new page and not open up in the content div.
The problem is, I am reusing code which looks a bit like this:
<?php while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="flexslider">
<ul class="slides">
<li>
<a href="http://the-url-here">
<img src="<?php echo $thumb[0]; ?>" />
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
But there is custom js within the parent theme global footer as follows which handles the opening up of the content, rather than redirecting to the location specified in the tag as usual.
$(".flexslider ul.slides li a").live('click', function(e){ e.preventDefault();
/*Set Function Variables */
$this = $(this);
$selectedthing = $this;
$postId = $($this).attr('data-url');
// and so on...
return false;
});
So, I need to disable the javascript attached to .flexslider ul.slides li a on that one single page template only, preferably without having to change the classes, as I think thatwould open up another can of worms around the css. Remember the theme loads the javascript in the footer, so I assume any changes Imake in the page template will be overridden in the footer.
Any ideas on the best way to approach this?
Just remove click live listener in your child theme. Add this javascript only for that specific page template.
$(".flexslider ul.slides li a").die('click');
I have a static website, but I have included different bits of the page (head, header, image slider, footer) by php's include function, to make the website manageable.
Now the problem is that the current page's name in the menu-bar must have selected="selected" to show the current page's name pressed in the front end.
I made a solution of giving every menu-item an id and than injecting the following code to end of every page and setting that page's id (the home button id selected in the example code).
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#home').addClass('active');
});
</script>
Now the problem is that I must include this script in every page and to change the id to that page (eg in the above script I have pasted the code in the home page,
I wanna have a solution where I add only once chunk of the code to my footer.php and it automatically detect the current page and set the select="selected" for that menu-item.
Thank You all in advance...
In PHP, you can put the active class on your menu definition (if it's the same on every page), if you know the current page visited:
<ul>
<li <?php if($current_page == 'home') echo 'class="active"'; ?>>Home</li>
<li <?php if($current_page == 'blog') echo 'class="active"'; ?>>Blog</li>
<li <?php if($current_page == 'contact') echo 'class="active"'; ?>>Contact</li>
</ul>
and so on... You don't need Javascript for this (which is disable by some users). The only need is to get the $current_page variable, which can be based on the URL or the ID of the page, depending on your current website architecture.
The solution I discovered for my (specific) problem is,
I gave id(s) to all the menu-items, and those ids were the namesake of the related files (the files to which they'll link), for example the button which links to the home.php was given the id of "home" and the button which was linking to the profile.php was given the id of "profile" than included the following code in the footer
<?php
$php_self = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$basename = basename($php_self);
$id = basename($basename, ".php");
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#<?php echo $id; ?>.addClass('active');
});
</script>
( jQuery used, but if the website doesn't have jQuery already, than the document.getElementById must be used ).
Thank You all for Your time..
You can use js and php together:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#<?=$current_page?>").addClass('active')
})
It's shorter than Maxime Lorant's code...
Or if your url is something like site.com/#home , this is the solution:
Get css id from url (without php/js)
I'm working on a WP single page portfolio that loads post content with AJAX. I read that WP doesn't need #! URLs to make it crawlable by Googlebot. If I understand it correctly, since Googlebot won't interpret ajax, it will just follow the link and index the article page.
So I removed #! from my URLs and when a post is opened I update them with .pushState.It's working fine, but if I hit F5 or if I try to load a specific URL (not the home) I fall into the page of the post (single.php).
To prevent it, I added a javascript redirection in single.php that leads users to the homepage. Then I need to open the content of the article on the homepage.
Here is the address of my site: http://www.youpiemonday.com/ (the redirection isn't online yet).
How can I tell the browser "if you're coming from this page (the referrer), trigger a click on the thumbnail which href is corresponding" (the click will load the content)?
I'm digging around this but I have no idea how to target the thumbnail correctly...
<script type="text/javascript">
$referer = document.referrer; // where we come from
$LinktoRef = $('.ProjectWrap').find("a").href; // the href in the thumbnail
console.debug($LinktoRef); // still undefined...
if ( $LinktoRef == $referer ){
find("a").trigger('click');
}
</script>
Here is what the html markup looks like:
<div id="portfolio-list">
<div class="ProjectWrap">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<div class="contentProject">
<h4 class="ProjectTitle"><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
</div>
</a>
</div>
<div class="ProjectWrap">//same as above</div>
<div class="ProjectWrap">//same as above</div>
// and the list goes on...
</div>
I'm not really a programmer so any help would be very appreciated. And if you can comment your code, that would be invaluable to me.
Because you are probably trying to reference the element before it is rendered on the page. Use document ready or window onload and reference the link there.
i am working on my first Ajax Project and i cannot find a solution for this problem:
This is my Ajax Code:
$(document).ready(function(){
var seite = $('div.ipadSeite');
$('a').on('click', function(e){
var href = $(this).attr('href');
seite.load( href );
e.preventDefault();
});
});
And this is the index.php:
....<div id="ipadHeader">
<nav>
<ul>
<li>100% |=|</li>
<li>
<?php
echo date("h:i a");
?>
</li>
<li>TWT</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</div>
<div class="ipadSeite">
<img src="../images/homescreen.png" id="homescreenImage" />
<div id="appIcon"><p>TWT</p></div>
</div>
</div>....
When first starting the Application the Link: a href="seiten/1app.php is working! So I created an Home Button to go Back to the index.php. This is the File wich is loaded trough Ajax to go back "home":
<img src="../images/homescreen.png" id="homescreenImage" />
<div id="appIcon"><p>TWT</p></div>
It simply loads the same content in "ipadSeite".
My first Question: This is wrong right? It should be easier? But when linking to index.php it loads the whole site (header, footer ..) and the functionality breaks.
Second Question: My Solution works, but when i click on the button another time, it dont makes an Ajax Request. Instead it opens a regular link but without CSS. I really cannot find any solution for that. I hope you guys understand my problem and my explanation.
Thank you very much!

Delegate function:
$(document).delegate('a','click',function(){//Write your function here})
'On' I find very situational. 'Delegate' and 'live' both work well with asynchronously load elements.
Robert
First I think you reference the div by class while you have it in id
var seite = $('div.ipadSeite'); => var seite = $('#ipadSeite');
As far as I can see from a cursory glance you are not using AJAX but simply utilising jQuery's functions.
What exactly are you trying to do? If you lay out a point by point run through of what a user journey is then I am sure someone can help you.

[Edit]
have you tried accessing a specific section on the homepage:
<script>
$("#new-nav").load("/ #jq-footerNavigation li");
</script>
The above code says get some data from homepage '/' and load it into the '#new-nav' element
In your case it should be .load('/ .ipadSeite' )
