Add Button to Users Page (jQuery) WordPress
- SOLVED
I need to insert a code snippet onto the Users.php page (i.e. /wp-admin/users.php)
I am trying to insert the code directly after the 'Add New' button. If you view the users.php file in wp-admin directory this is around line 434.
However, I of course can't just leave it in the file because it will be constantly overwritten by updates so I am hoping for some jquery that will insert my code snippet (or to insert with a hook if anyone knows of a way to do that). I am not even 100% sure this is possible...
Code snippet:
<?php if(isset($_POST['spue_action'])) {
if($_POST['spue_action'] == 'export_now')
{ global $spUserExport;
$message = $spUserExport->spue_daily_cronjob();
echo $message;
} } ?>
<form method="post" action="">
<p class=""><input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e("Email Aging Report Now", 'spue'); ?>" class="button" /></p>
<input type="hidden" name="spue_action" value="export_now" />
</form>
Thanks for your time

Place this inside functions.php, or something like that should do it, or put you on the right path.
add_action('user_admin_menu', 'custom_menu_item');
function custom_menu_item() {
if(isset($_POST['spue_action'])) {
if($_POST['spue_action'] == 'export_now')
{ global $spUserExport;
$message = $spUserExport->spue_daily_cronjob();
echo $message;
} } ?>
<form method="post" action="">
<p class=""><input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e("Email Aging Report Now", 'spue'); ?>" class="button" /></p>
<input type="hidden" name="spue_action" value="export_now" />
</form>
<?php }

I believe that is the admin panel on the left sidebar isn't it.

It is. I am not aware of any hooks to insert directly into the page. I'm sure it's possible.
Mine is an alternative solution if you can't figure it out.
The only other thing I can think of is using a hook to the users table maybe, inserting the button beside each user? I know it's not ideal, but may work.
add_filter('manage_users_columns', 'pippin_add_user_id_column');
function aging_report($columns) {
$columns['aging'] = 'Aging';
return $columns;
}
add_action('manage_users_custom_column', 'aging_reports_content', 10, 3);
function aging_reports_content() {
if(isset($_POST['spue_action'])) {
if($_POST['spue_action'] == 'export_now')
{ global $spUserExport;
$message = $spUserExport->spue_daily_cronjob();
echo $message;
} } ?>
<form method="post" action="">
<p class=""><input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e("Email Aging Report Now", 'spue'); ?>" class="button" /></p>
<input type="hidden" name="spue_action" value="export_now" />
</form>
<? }

replace first line
add_filter('manage_users_columns', 'aging_reports');

Thank you for the tips, yeah inside the table is less desirable but I will keep it in mind.
Dbranes answers:
You can try the <strong>in_admin_header</strong> or <strong>the all_admin_notices</strong> hooks:
add_action('in_admin_header','my_admin_header');
function my_admin_header(){
if($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] == "/wp-admin/users.php"){
echo "<div>hello world</div>";
}
}
but it will be above the wrap class, so this will be displayed above the h2 title.

Thanks this is closer, still not ideal but getting warmer

Hi Kyle
Have you looked at the "restrict_manage_users" action?
It's not what it was intended for, but it allows you to put a button (or whatever) next to the Change button on the bottom left of your grab. Not quite the same place as you want, but not far and - with a bit of neat CSS - you could easily space it away from the Change button and thus make it it's own man.
function my_report_button(){
echo 'My button';
}
add_action('restrict_manage_users','my_report_button');

For jQuery solution:
add_action('admin_head', 'spue_user_export');
function spue_user_export(){
if($_POST['spue_action'] == 'export_now'){
global $spUserExport;
$message = $spUserExport->spue_daily_cronjob();
}?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
if($('.users-php').length > 0){
var message = '<?php echo $message ?>',
button = $('<form method="post" action=""><p class=""><input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e("Email Aging Report Now", 'spue'); ?>" class="button" /></p><input type="hidden" name="spue_action" value="export_now" /></form>');
if(message != '')
$('.wrap .subsubsub').before($('<div class="updated"><p>'+message+'</p></div>'));
$('.wrap .subsubsub').before(button);
}
});
</script>
<?php
}
