[Resolved] Javascript on custom archive

[Author]

Hello,

I have a custom archive type and I'm adapting it. I wanted the article layout to match the theme and I managed to do that.

However, I'm having a problem with the "heart" (like) under each article.

The "heart" comes "red" when I like the post post, as it should. However, if I refresh the page it reverts to "unliked" mode - white heart. I have attached a screenshot of it.

I have this html code in the page which I have copied from the theme and just adding the custom elements that I needed.

Would you be able to help me?

<a class="penci-post-like" data-post_id="[wpv-post-id]" title="Like" data-like="Like" data-unlike="Unlike"><i class="fa fa-heart-o"></i><span class="dt-share">0</span></a>

Do I need to add some javascript to the custom archive?

Note: This worked fine with the theme, but it's not working with the custom archive.

Thanks.

Dear Jorge，

It seems to be a compatibility problem, please provide detail steps to duplicate same problem:
1) How do you setup the "heart" (like), is it a custom field? if it is created with other plugin/theme, please provide a downloadable URL for it
2) How do you setup the custom archive? Are you using Views wordpress archive to setup it? if it is, please take a screenshot for it.

I need to duplicate same problem and debug it in my localhost, thannks

Hi Luo,

Thanks for the reply.

1) How do you setup the "heart" (like), is it a custom field? if it is created with other plugin/theme, please provide a downloadable URL for it

This comes as default in the theme and I just grabbed the code from the theme and added it to my custom wordpress archive. Original theme is here: hidden link

2) How do you setup the custom archive? Are you using Views wordpress archive to setup it? if it is, please take a screenshot for it.

I'm using a wordpress archive template.

I'm happy to give you access to the site if it makes it easier.

Thanks.

So it is a compatibility problem between your theme and Views wordpress archive, please provide a copy of your website, also point out the problem page URL and layout URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

Please provide the file installer.php too, then update this thread, thanks

[JorgeE7101]

Sorry. I've added the installer link.

Thanks.

It needs some custom PHP codes, for example you can try these:
1) Add below codes into your theme/functions.php:

function user_liked_post(){
	$post_id = get_the_ID();
	$res = penci_AlreadyLiked( $post_id );
	return $res;
}

2) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> Front-end Content
option "Functions inside conditional evaluations", fill above custom PHP function name: user_liked_post

3) Edit the wordpress archive "Categories, Tags": ID 1787
Edit this line from:

<a class="penci-post-like" ...

To:

<a class="penci-post-like [wpv-conditional if="user_liked_post()"]liked[/wpv-conditional]" ...

Hi Luo,

Thanks for the reply.

I have tried that and it doesn't work. It is still not keeping the likes. As soon as I refresh the page it goes away.

I have this code now:

<a class="penci-post-like [wpv-conditional if="user_liked_post()"]liked[/wpv-conditional]" data-post_id="[wpv-post-id]" title="Unlike" data-like="Like" data-unlike="Unlike"><i class="fa fa-heart-o"></i><span class="dt-share">0</span></a>

The "liked" word is in red, which usually means that something is wrong with the code (see screenshot).

UPDATE: I have removed the inverted commas and the "red" liked error is gone. I now have:

<a class="penci-post-like" [wpv-conditional if="user_liked_post()"]liked[/wpv-conditional] data-post_id="[wpv-post-id]" title="Unlike" data-like="Like" data-unlike="Unlike"><i class="fa fa-heart-o"></i><span class="dt-share">0</span></a>

However, it is still not working..

Thanks.

Hi Luo,

I've just tested it and I can see two problems:

1- I got an error at the top of the page showing weird numbers: "329732463230328132883163300229873196318229673190814
"
2 - It's not working on the home page.

Thanks.

[Luo Yang]

1) I got an error at the top of the page showing weird numbers:
That is the PHP codes I added for debug, I have reversed it back:
from:
echo $post_id = get_the_ID();
To
$post_id = get_the_ID();

2) It's not working on the home page.
That means your home page is using another wordpress archive,
Dashboard-> Toolset-> WordPress Archive
Edit "Home/Blog", ID 1771, in section "Loop item in Home/Blog"
Then apply same change as I mentioned above:

step 2) Edit this line from ...
