[Plugin: Custom Field Template] Preview image for textarea

  • Hi,

    I’ve been playing with the Custom Field Template and what I’ve trying to do is to use a textarea with mediaButton to insert an image into a custom field. It kind of works; but when the image is displayed (on click in the case below) the code in the text area disappears. I’ve tried to write it back in this case.

    [Photo]
type = 	textarea
mediaButton = true
label = Photo
rows = 5
cols = 25
onclick= var image = this.value; this.parentNode.parentNode.innerHTML +=image; this.innerHTML = image

    I’ve also noticed that when this code is run the textarea becomes unusable. I wonder if it is possible? Otherwise I’ll stick with the complete tinyMCE view.

    Found out it was better to use a select drop down. For anyone looking for something similar see below:

    [Photo]
type = select
code = 2
after = <div></div>
multipleButton = true
onchange = var start = (this.value).indexOf('<'); this.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[0].innerHTML = (this.value).slice(start);

    code 2:

    global $wpdb;
$values = array();
$attachments = $wpdb->get_results('SELECT * FROM ' . $wpdb->prefix . 'posts WHERE post_type="attachment"');
foreach ($attachments as $attachment) {
    $str = $attachment->post_title;
    $str .= '[' . $attachment->ID . ']';

	$img = wp_get_attachment_image($attachment->ID, $size='thumbnail', $icon = false);
     $str .=  $img;
$values[] = $str;
}

    The only issue I get now is the multiple button does not save multiple entries ??
