I have this button:
<a href="http://my-site/checkout/" target="_blank" class="dt-sc-button">bla bla</a>
This button is located on my homebage and is generated by a page builder. What I want to accomplish is when somebody click on the button, it will take them on the checkout, and add a product to the cart. I know that this can be accomplished via a URL, but I need to have this button do other things as well(client idea).
So right now I'm stucked here:
JQuery
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
$(".remove-all").click(function(){
$.ajax({
url: "wp-admin/admin-ajax.php",
data: 'myajax'
});
});
});
PHP
add_action('wp_ajax_myajax', 'myajax');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_myajax', 'myajax');
function myajax() {
global $woocommerce;
$product_id = 264;
$woocommerce->cart->add_to_cart($product_id);
die();
}
I'm a javascript noob, so can you please point me to the right direction, or maybe give me a hint on what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in advance!
As I mentioned in the comments, you can pretty much borrow from core WooCommerce functions.
First, here's the button we'll be trying to ajaxify:
<a href="http://local.wordpress.dev/checkout/" class="button test-button">bla bla</a>
Secondly, we'll load our custom script and pass it important variables such as the admin ajax and checkout urls.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'so_load_script', 20 );
function so_load_script(){
wp_enqueue_script( 'so_test', plugins_url( 'js/test.js', __FILE__ ) );
$i18n = array( 'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' ), 'checkout_url' => get_permalink( wc_get_page_id( 'checkout' ) ) );
wp_localize_script( 'so_test', 'SO_TEST_AJAX', $i18n );
}
Now we will write our ajax callbacks, which is copied almost verbatim from WooCommerce core with only a few small modifications:
add_action('wp_ajax_myajax', 'myajax_callback');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_myajax', 'myajax_callback');
/**
* AJAX add to cart.
*/
function myajax_callback() {
ob_start();
//$product_id = 264;
$product_id = 34;
$quantity = 1;
$passed_validation = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart_validation', true, $product_id, $quantity );
$product_status = get_post_status( $product_id );
if ( $passed_validation && WC()->cart->add_to_cart( $product_id, $quantity ) && 'publish' === $product_status ) {
do_action( 'woocommerce_ajax_added_to_cart', $product_id );
wc_add_to_cart_message( $product_id );
} else {
// If there was an error adding to the cart, redirect to the product page to show any errors
$data = array(
'error' => true,
'product_url' => apply_filters( 'woocommerce_cart_redirect_after_error', get_permalink( $product_id ), $product_id )
);
wp_send_json( $data );
}
die();
}
And finally the contents of test.js
:
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
$(".test-button").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault(); // Prevent the click from going to the link
$.ajax({
url: wc_add_to_cart_params.ajax_url,
method: 'post',
data: {
'action': 'myajax'
}
}).done( function (response) {
if( response.error != 'undefined' && response.error ){
//some kind of error processing or just redirect to link
// might be a good idea to link to the single product page in case JS is disabled
return true;
} else {
window.location.href = SO_TEST_AJAX.checkout_url;
}
});
});
});
You likely need to cancel/prevent the default action of clicking the link, and then redirect once the AJAX call finishes (this is just one way to do it):
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
$(".remove-all").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault(); // Prevent the click from going to the link
var $redirect = $(this).attr('href');
$.ajax({
url: "wp-admin/admin-ajax.php",
data: 'myajax',
success: function () {
window.location.href = $redirect;
}
});
});
});
PHP
add_action('wp_ajax_myajax', 'myajax');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_myajax', 'myajax');
function myajax() {
$product_id = 264;
// Avoid using the global $woocommerce object
WC()->cart->add_to_cart($product_id);
die();
}
