Cookies?

  • Hi,

    This looks like a nice one of these gadgets.

    Would be even nicer if we could set cookies though.. ??

    I am going to try doing so anyway I think, using this:

    https://github.com/carhartl/jquery-cookie

    What do you think? Something to add to the features list for a future release?

    One of the irritating things with these little pop-ins, is that unless they can be switched off by the user, they can end up having the opposite effect to the desired one.

    Something like the well known Foobar has a cookie option, but haven’t managed to find one like upprev out the box with this.

    Thanks for reading, and thanks for creating the plugin too ??

    This might work:

    // Add script in footer for trigger close button click and call ajax function

add_action('wp_footer', '__script_upprev_close_click', 100);

function __script_upprev_close_click() {

?>

<script type="text/javascript">

var ajaxurl = '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>';

</script>

<?php

	echo '<script type="text/javascript">

jQuery( document ).ready(function() {

    jQuery("#upprev_close").click(function(){

		jQuery.post(

			ajaxurl, 

			{

				"action": "__callback_close_click",

				"data":   "hideit"

			}, 

			function(response){

				jQuery("#upprev_box").remove();
			}
		);
	});
});

</script>';

}

// Reading ajax call, and set cookie

add_action( 'wp_ajax___callback_close_click', '__upprev_set_cookie' );

add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv___callback_close_click', '__upprev_set_cookie' );

function __upprev_set_cookie() {

	if($_POST['data'] && $_POST['data'] == 'hideit')

	{

		if (!isset($_COOKIE['hide_upprev'])) {

			setcookie("hide_upprev", 'true', time()+3600, COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN);

		}

	}

	die();

}

// Hide upPrev  Box if cookie is set

add_action('init', '__hide_iworks_upprev_box',100);

function __hide_iworks_upprev_box()

{

	if (!empty($_COOKIE['hide_upprev']) && $_COOKIE['hide_upprev'] == 'true') {

		add_filter( 'iworks_upprev_box', '__callback__iworks_upprev_box' );

	}

}

function __callback__iworks_upprev_box()

{

   	return '';

}

    Dear gecko_guy

    Good idea. I added this to ToDo list.

    Cheers,
