Wordpress AJAX How to Implement Server Side Response
0
I'm attempting to implement an AJAX request and response all within one wordpress page. My request is getting a response containing the page's html contents, and not the data that my response function is supposed to output. Do I need to enqueue the response script from a separate file?
b.on("click", function(){
var data =
data = retrieve_hst()
console.log(data)
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "./wp-admin/admin-ajax.php",
data: { action: "recordData", hst_data: data }
}).done(function(response) {
alert (response);
});
<?php
add_action('wp_ajax_recordData', 'recordData' );
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_wps_recordData', 'recordData' );
function recordData() {
$data = $_POST['hst_data'];
echo $data;
die();
}
?>
})

Where is that PHP code located? It should go in your functions file, or some file that gets included on all pages, before any output at all.

I have this code written directly into one of my pages. I tried placing the server side php script into functions.php but it didn't seem to make a difference.

Youradd_actionhooks should be placed inside your theme'sfunctions.phpfile (or in a standalone plugin).

The ajax request isn't actually calling your page, it's calling./wp-admin/admin-ajax.php. I would also recommend removing the initial.from the path. It should work from the functions.php-file. If it doesn't then there's something else wrong (which we can't see here).

Thank you Magnus and Hector. I removed the initial dot from the path and put the action hooks into the functions.php file and it's working now. That was helpful, most of the tutorials I found online don't mention placing those in functions.php.
