Link images from multi upload field (Gravity forms) to WP gallery WordPress

  • SOLVED

Hello,

we want our users to be able to upload posts to our blog from the front-end (using the great gravity forms) and we are facing two issues that need to be resolved:

1) We need the images (up to five) that have been upload using the <strong>multi upload field to be linked to the WP gallery</strong> so we can make changes to them in the edit mode and display them smoothly on the articles. The first picture should be the featured image and the other 4 should be attached to the gallery. Some code for the functions.php would be great!

2) We are using a "<strong>list field</strong>" in Gravity forms for our users to show their sources and links. We need the field to be linked to three seperate ACF custom fields to be displayed in the articles.



Some ideas for code:

1)

public function migrate_post_meta(){

#Verify authorization and authentication
if ( ! $this->verify_request() )
return;

global $wpdb;

#Retrieve all featured image postmeta rows from prior theme
$query = $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT post_id, meta_value FROM $wpdb->postmeta WHERE meta_key = %s", $this->meta_ );
$results = $wpdb->get_results( $query );

if ( $results ){
foreach( $results as $result ){

#Check if meta_value is a path
if( preg_match( '/\//', $result->meta_value ) ){
$this->get_attachment_by_url( $result->meta_value, $result->post_id );
continue;
}

#Check if meta_value is an ID
if( is_int( (int)$result->meta_value ) )

#Add a native WordPress featured image postmeta row
if( update_post_meta( $result->post_id, '_thumbnail_id', $result->meta_value ) )

#Send a message to the screen
show_message( "Post #$result->post_id - Featured image was set properly." );
}
}




2)

<?php

add_action('gform_after_submission', 'show_me_everything');
function show_me_everything($entry) {

$list_values = unserialize($entry[6]);

Hi there, I use this all the time for multi file upload

Kyle comments:

You need to update 3 things there: Form ID, Field ID, and Post ID


robork comments:

Hi Kyle,

thanks for your quick reply.

A few quick questions:

1)If I add the code to my functions.php it stops working - anything I'm missing here?
2)Where do I need to add the post ID? As a new post is generated each time the GF ist being filled it should be linked to that new post
3) add_filter("gform_after_submission_52", "my_add_post_attachements",10,2); //Your form ID
My GF ID is 10 but there is a 10 and a 2 - which one needs to be replaced?
4) Any idea for the list field?

Many thanks! We are getting there!
Tim


Kyle comments:

For the list field, are you limiting it to one row? So you are setting a post ID, or are you using the same post ID as the images?


robork comments:

List field has up to three rows - so three different values are being stored.
The list field is in the same GF form as the images


Kyle comments:

1) My fault when I added a comment I removed a row, use this: [[LINK href="http://pastie.org/8701611"]]http://pastie.org/8701611[[/LINK]] just change your field ID on line 12
2) Okay, in that instance you can use $entry["post_id"], I added it to the new pastie
3) Change the 52 actually so 3) add_filter("gform_after_submission_10", "my_add_post_attachements",10,2);
4) Want to hit the image first and then do the list? I will hit it once we get the image right for you


robork comments:

Hi Kyle,

it still seems to break my functions php when I just copy and paste the entire code and the update the file in WP editor.

Sorry, hard to check code in the small space here, change this line

to this

robork comments:

YEEEESSS! You are brilliant Kyle! I have been working on this issue for a few days and couldn't solve it!

How about the links? Can we get that solved as well (see screenshots below)

We have a few more jobs for you - do you wanna run this via wpquestions or should we PM?
