Issues with acp/filtering/dropdown_args hook
Hello Support
Today we upgraded the plugin from an older version to 6.4+ which means that the dropdowns is now populated through AJAX.
Unfortunately we are no longer able to modify the dropdowns anymore with the dropdown_args hook.
We follow the procedure as outlined here: https://github.com/codepress/admin-columns-hooks/blob/master/acp-filtering-dropdown_args.php
Here is our code that is no longer working:
function acp_custom_7it_dato_sortering( $args, AC\Column $column ) {
if ( $column instanceof AC\Column\Meta && 'dato_for_levering' === $column->get_meta_key() ) {
$new = $args['options'];
uksort($new,function($a,$b){
$au = strtotime(str_replace("/","-",$a));
$bu = strtotime(str_replace("/","-",$b));
return $bu <=> $au;
});
$args['options'] = $new;
unset($args['order']);
}
$args['limit'] = 1000;
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'acp/filtering/dropdown_args', 'acp_custom_7it_dato_sortering', 10, 2 );We are only receiving 500-ish results with AJAX, even with the
$args['limit'] = 1000;
This implies that the hook is not working at all. Are there new hooks implemented for the new AJAX methods?
Best regards,
Patrick @ 7it ApS
Since 6.4, our Filtering logic now works on top of our Smart Filtering logic. The old method that filtering used to populate the drop-down boxes was very heavy on performance. The list of options can now be searched on the fly. Depending on the column type, we use the WordPress queries to fetch the available options. That said, there is no uniform way to alter the options in the drop-down, because every query might be different. I don’t see an alternative to what you’re trying to do in your example.
