My Awesome Moments - REAP WHAT YOU SOW

WordPress add wp media

I want to add a media screen to upload photos to a custom post type. I did search the internet but found the solutions were bit an pieces.

What I plan to do – Add Media Screen to Custom Post Type

1) When click on the Add Media – media screen will apppear
2) User can select a photo and when a photo is selected, it will replace the previous photo.

wordpress - add wp media screen to a custom post type — when click on the add media button, a media screen will appear

wordpress - media screen appear on custom post type — media screen appears after clicking on the button.

wordpress - select new photo — wordpress – select new photo

wordpress - new photo replaced the previous one — wordpress – new photo replaced the previous one

How To Do It?

1) Add below javascript

(function () {
    window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
        var frame;

        // Open or create the the media frame
        document.querySelector('#media-handler').addEventListener('click', function (event) {
            event.preventDefault();

                
            //if frame has been create, reopen it.
            if (frame) {
                frame.open();
                return;
	        }
            /**
             * Please attach all the code below to a button click event
             **/

            //create a new Library, base on defaults
            //you can put your attributes in
            var insertImage = wp.media.controller.Library.extend({
                defaults :  _.defaults({
                        id:        'insert-image',
                        title:      'Insert Sizing Chart',
                        allowLocalEdits: true,
                        displaySettings: true,
                        displayUserSettings: true,
                        multiple : true,
                        type : 'image'//audio, video, application/pdf, ... etc
                }, wp.media.controller.Library.prototype.defaults )
            });

            //Setup media frame
            frame = wp.media({
                button : { text : 'Select' },
                state : 'insert-image',

            //on close, if there is no select files, remove all the files already selected in your main frame
            frame.on('close',function() {

                if(!selection.length){

            frame.on( 'select',function() {

    //the <img> tag where the selected photo will be displayed
    echo '<img src="" id="image-sizing-chart" width="0" height="0" />';

//the <img> tag where the selected photo will be displayed

echo '<img src="" id="image-sizing-chart" width="0" height="0" />';

}

Code Explanation

All the codes are self explanatory and with comments. I just want to highlight which code you can change the title of the media screen.

wordpress - wp media change its default title — wordpress – wp media change its default title

var insertImage = wp.media.controller.Library.extend({
                defaults :  _.defaults({
                        id:        'insert-image',
                        title:      'Insert Sizing Chart', //<< will change the media title screen
                        allowLocalEdits: true,
                        displaySettings: true,
                        displayUserSettings: true,
                        multiple : true,
                        type : 'image'//audio, video, application/pdf, ... etc
                }, wp.media.controller.Library.prototype.defaults )
            });

var insertImage = wp.media.controller.Library.extend({

defaults : _.defaults({

id: 'insert-image',

title: 'Insert Sizing Chart', //<< will change the media title screen

allowLocalEdits: true,

displaySettings: true,

displayUserSettings: true,

multiple : true,

type : 'image'//audio, video, application/pdf, ... etc

}, wp.media.controller.Library.prototype.defaults )

});

Airbnb Meridin Medini Review Near Legoland Johor

We stay at one of Airbnb unit at Meridin Medini from 27th January date to 1st February 2022.

Check In Process

It is standard in most airbnb unit where you need to pick your access card at mailbox. Thanks to not so many visitors so check in and check out process were smooth.

The Unit

The unit had 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with one king bed and one queen bed. Comfortable floor mattresses were provided.

Overall unit was OK but unfortunately the fridge was not cold at all. Aircond also not cold. I had to clean up the aircond filter only after that it started to be cold. Shampoo and shower bath are low quality.

Sofa was also felt so rigid not comfy. TV was small, I think it was around 40 inch.

Surprisingly the unit was not that hot even though outside was hot. What I like the unit had good WIFI and Netflix.

Common Facilities

I love the facilities even thought it was standard facilities in any condominium but there was no one or nearly no one who were using it. So the place was not crowded.

Besides it was easy to get lift as there were not so many visitors.

Rates

We were paying RM160++ per night. For me it was reasonable price but disappointed couldn’t use the fridge, sofa not comfy and aircond not functioning well.

Location

It was near to Legoland Johor which took only 5 mn drive to Legoland and 10mn drive to Puteri Harbour.

Latitude Longitude: 1.421212066934808, 103.62979159916857

Final Review

Cleanliness – 5 stars
Rates – 5 stars
Hosts responsiveness & courtesy – 5 stars
Common facilities – 5 stars
Lift – 5 stars
Unit amenities – 3 stars
Location – 5 stars
Overall – 4 stars

I gave 4 stars because fridge was not cold and sofa was not comfortable.

Google reCaptcha v2 Doesn’t Work using PHP on my Website

My website is a WordPress website. I wanted to create a form with a reCaptcha protection using Google reCaptcha v2 (tick box). Surprisingly it doesn’t work even though it works on my other website using same PHP code.

After Ticking the reCaptcha

It doesn’t work if use file_get_contents

$data = array('secret' => 'your-secret', 'response' => $_POST['g-recaptcha-response']);

$url = 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?secret='
               .$data['secret'] . '&response=' . $data['response'];
$result = file_get_contents($url);
$result = json_decode($result);


if(!$result->success):
 echo 'error';
 return;
endif;

echo 'success';

$data = array('secret' => 'your-secret', 'response' => $_POST['g-recaptcha-response']);

$url = 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?secret='

.$data['secret'] . '&response=' . $data['response'];

$result = file_get_contents($url);

$result = json_decode($result);

if(!$result->success):

echo 'error';

return;

endif;

echo 'success';

Google reCaptcha keeps sending me error.

It works if using curl

$url = 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify';
$data = array('secret' => 'your secret key', 'response' => $_POST['g-recaptcha-response']);

$verify = curl_init();
curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($data));
curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$response = curl_exec($verify);

$responseData = json_decode($response);
if($responseData->success):
 // your success code goes here
// echo 'success';
     return true;
                  
     else:
        // return error to user; they did not pass
        // echo 'fail';

        return false;
endif;

$url = 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify';

$data = array('secret' => 'your secret key', 'response' => $_POST['g-recaptcha-response']);

$verify = curl_init();

curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_URL, $url);

curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_POST, true);

curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($data));

curl_setopt($verify, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$response = curl_exec($verify);

$responseData = json_decode($response);

if($responseData->success):

// your success code goes here

// echo 'success';

return true;

else:

// return error to user; they did not pass

// echo 'fail';

return false;

endif;

Mindstorms Lego Workshop at Johor Legoland

This time around I went to Mindstorms Lego Workshop at Legoland. It is first time I played Mindstorms Lego.

You need to register in advance before you can join the workshop. Better register early to get your time slot.

For Mindstorms Lego workshop, Johor Legoland offers two workshops:

Cosmobot
Dr HeartBeat

Mindstorms Lego – Cosmobot

Lego instructor will explain that you need to do 2 tasks which are:

Setting up communication channel
Launch the rocket

You have to do the programming to make sure the robot do those two tasks correctly. It is simple programming for the kids. Just like a flow where you need to change the robot movement configuration.

It is exciting for kids who have passion in programming or robotics.
