action button after "Save Changes" was pressed

[ushay]

hello friend,

i have an action button in footer-extras.php to send an email, but i need it to be send only after the user pressed the "Save Changes" button.

is there a way to check if the button was pressed ?

thanks,

shay.

First, check if SelectedID is defined at all. Will only be set after very first save (after insert).

Additionally you can hide (or remove) the button in form.onChange event using javascript.

thanks for your reply Jan,


first i am using this code to see if SelctedId is set:

Code: Select all

$checkSelectedID = isset($_POST['SelectedID']) ? makeSafe($_POST['SelectedID']) : 0;

and then i try:

Code: Select all

if (isset($_POST['SelectedID'])) {				
		if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {	
			
			$mail = [
				"to" => "shay@qlc.co.il",
				"name" => "נשלח על ידי " . $Tname,
				"message" => "http://tasks.qlc.co.il:10501/tasks/inventory_report_view.php?SelectedID=" . $checkSelectedID,
				"subject" => "התקבל טופס הזמנת ציוד בתאריך " . $json . " מאת הטכנאי " . $Tname,
				"debug" => 4
			];

		   sendmail($mail);
		
		}
		}

but even when i dont press the save button it still sends the email,why?

Hi,

just a short question to understand you need. Why cant you put your code in the _after_update hook?
