how to delete terms in plugin? woocommerce - database

i am creating a plugin with plugin hooks when plugin activate it creating product attributes it working fine also i adding attributes terms it also working fine and on plugin deactivate i am deleting it but i see only attributes deleting but terms not delete.
i using this code for deleting attributes it working fine
enter code here
// attributes parameters
$wpm_attributes = array(
array(
'label' => 'Size',
'name' => 'size',
'type' => 'select',
),
array(
'label' => 'Color',
'name' => 'color',
'type' => 'select',
)
);
foreach ( $wpm_attributes as $attr ) {
$attribute = array(
'attribute_label' => $attr['label'],
'attribute_name' => $attr['name'],
'attribute_type' => $attr['type'],
'attribute_orderby' => 'menu_order'
);
$wpdb->delete( $wpdb->prefix . 'woocommerce_attribute_taxonomies', $attribute );
delete_transient( 'wc_attribute_taxonomies' );
}

I recommend not deleting the terms at the point of deactivation.
Instead why don't you delete the terms at the point of uninstallation?
You can use the uninstall hook:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_uninstall_hook
Or bypass that.
The plugin should create a file named 'uninstall.php' in the base plugin folder. This file will be called, if it exists, during the uninstall process bypassing the uninstall hook.
This may be easier to manage code wise and sometimes people would like to deactivate a plugin and not lose all their data.

Drupal hook not being called

I'm new to Drupal making a plugin that hooks into the ckeditor widget. I absolutely can't figure out why my implementation of a hook that is defined in ckeditor is never called.
Here are some details
my module is enabled
I'm able to use more basic hooks like exceltohtml_plugin instead of exceltohtml_ckeditor_plugin and reach my test statement.
I'm can't think of any more troubleshooting ideas to reveal the issue so any help would be greatly appreciated.
exceltohtml.module
<?php
error_log("TEST: this will print to log");
// implementation of hook_ckeditor_plugin()
function exceltohtml_ckeditor_plugin()
{
error_log("TEST: but this will never run");
return array(
'exceltohtml' => array(
'name' => 'exceltohtml',
'desc' => t('Excel sheet upload'),
'path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'exceltohtml') .'/plugins/exceltohtml',
'buttons' => array(
'excel_to_html' => array('label' => 'Insert spoiler','icon' => '/images/image.gif' ),
)
)
);
}
ckeditor.api.php (the file in ckeditor that Im basing my hook on)
/**
* Hook to register the CKEditor plugin
*/
function hook_ckeditor_plugin() {
return array(
'plugin_name' => array(
// Name of the plugin used to write it.
'name' => 'plugin_name',
// Description of the plugin - it would be displayed in the plugins management section of profile settings.
'desc' => t('Plugin description'),
// The full path to the CKEditor plugins directory, with the trailing slash.
'path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'my_module') . '/plugin_dir/',
'buttons' => array(
'button_name' => array(
'icon' => 'path to button icon',
'label' => 'Button Label',
)
)
)
);
}
If the function in your module is new, then the slightly older version of your module code might be cached.

How to hide a custom user profile field on hook_disable in Drupal 7?

I have created a module that adds a field to the user profile. I used field_create_field and field_create_instance to do this. When I disable the module, I want the field to no longer show up on the user profile, but I do not want to destroy it. I want to be able to enable the module and have the field show up and the data to still be there as originally entered. Can anyone tell me how to accomplish this?
Here is the code I used to create the field:
$field = array(
'field_name' => $field_name,
'type' => 'text',
'visibility' => 1,
'category' => 'API',
);
$field = field_create_field($field);
$field_instance = array(
'field_name' => $field_name,
'entity_type' => 'user',
'bundle' => 'user',
'label' => t('API Token'),
'cardinality' => 1,
'translatable' => 0,
'description' => t('By using this API token, you agree to the site Terms and Conditions and to acknowledge that your submission does not include protected health information or personal identifiers.'),
'widget' => array(
'type' => 'text_textfield',
'weight' => 10,
),
'formatter' => array(
'label' => t('field formatter label'),
'format' => 'text_default'
),
'settings' => array(
),
);
When you have created field using drupal entity like user, node etc then on that entity crud operation automatically apply.
As you have used api to "field_create_field" field then it automatically create field using api of entity vise verse its delete field when you uninstalled module.
First tell me when you uninstall your custom module then your custom field deleted from profile.? If yes then it's difficult to handle your use case. If no then in system table of Drupal you get status of your module whether it's disable or enable if status is 0 then used form alter hook of user profile and hide field
I was not able to accomplish exactly what I wanted, but I ended up installing the field extra widgets module and hiding the field completely on the edit form. Then, I used hook menu alter to create a local task tabs and I display the field on that tab.

How to know webroot in core.php

I'm using CakePHP 2.3.1.
Our server has some independent applications in one server. So I want to change session.cookie_path setting following the Cookbook :
Configure::write('Session', array(
'defaults' => 'php',
'ini' => array(
'session.cookie_path' => '/app/dir'
)
));
I could change it successfully with this. But here is a problem. I need to set session.cookie_path value to webroot dynamically (without string literal value such as '/app/dir').
I've tried to use $this->webroot following this Q&A, but of course it does not work because there is no controller in the file app/Config/core.php.
Any ideas?
I realized a php variable is available : $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].
So I could solve the problem.
$requestURI = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$webroot = preg_replace('/(^\/[^\/]+\/).*$/', '$1', $requestURI);
//echo $webroot;
Configure::write('Session', array(
'defaults' => 'cake',
'ini' => array(
'session.cookie_path' => $webroot // looks like '/app/'
)
));
But this solution does not have reusability enough : it would not work for apps located in deeper directories such as /apps/app1/.
I'm still awaiting a better solution.

Error Loading Views After Changing Route Value of module.config.php - Zend Framework

This question is regarding Zend Framework application version: 2.1.3. I, the developer, am new to Zend Framework and would greatly value your assistance.
I was making a module for a 'Donor Management System' of a church. The module I am working on is called the 'QueryBuilder'. Previous modules were fine and works great. I use the Zend Helper for Sublime Text and it generated some thing similar for the module.config.php
<?php
/**
*
* #package QueryBuilder
*/
return array(
'controllers' => array(
'invokables' => array(
'QueryBuilder\Controller\QueryBuilder' => 'QueryBuilder\Controller\QueryBuilderController',
),
),
// The following section is new and should be added to your file
'router' => array(
'routes' => array(
'querybuilder' => array(
'type' => 'segment',
'options' => array(
'route' => '/querybuilder[/:action][/:id]',
'constraints' => array(
'action' => '[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*',
'id' => '[0-9]+',
),
'defaults' => array(
'controller' => 'QueryBuilder\Controller\QueryBuilder',
'action' => 'index',
//'action' => 'search',
//'action' => 'recent',
),
),
),
),
),
'view_manager' => array(
'template_path_stack' => array(
'querybuilder' => __DIR__ . '/../view',
),
),
);
?>
Determined to have a little bit of fun after making some successful modules, I changed the router as follows.
<?php
/**
*
* #package QueryBuilder
*/
return array(
'controllers' => array(
'invokables' => array(
'QueryBuilder\Controller\QueryBuilder' => 'QueryBuilder\Controller\QueryBuilderController',
),
),
// The following section is new and should be added to your file
'router' => array(
'routes' => array(
'querybuilder' => array(
'type' => 'segment',
'options' => array(
'route' => '/query-builder[/:action][/:id]',
'constraints' => array(
'action' => '[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*',
'id' => '[0-9]+',
),
'defaults' => array(
'controller' => 'QueryBuilder\Controller\QueryBuilder',
'action' => 'index',
//'action' => 'search',
//'action' => 'recent',
),
),
),
),
),
'view_manager' => array(
'template_path_stack' => array(
'querybuilder' => __DIR__ . '/../view',
),
),
);
?>
Note: Only the route value was changed from /querybuilder... to /query-builder.... When I tried to access the route http://konnections/query-builder I got some error but I didn't go through it.
Wondering why I wan't to be a hero, I changed the value back to its defaults. And tried to load http://konnections/querybuilder but it also gave an error.
Zend\View\Renderer\PhpRenderer::render: Unable to render template "query-builder/query-builder/index"; resolver could not resolve to a file
No where in the code of the module you could find the words query-builder. So common sense says there can be no way query-builder/query-builder/index needs to be accessed.
Thinking it might be some caching, I looked for it in the entire application folder. Then I restarted Apache, the computer, deleted and made a new Module with the same name QueryBuilder and still the error is there.
Note: This is a plugin that was done nothing with. I only changed the route value thinking it will make the URL look neater.
Here is what I end up with [Image]:
Nope, this is not IE, because I tried in Chrome (which didn't access the query-builder url) as well.
The whole of Zend Folder (the root of the website) has no reference to query-builder. Where does it come from and how can I change it?
Thanks in advance.
from ZF1 series (http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.controller.basics.html), ZF2 is the same but not found this description on manual.
Case Naming Conventions
Since humans are notoriously inconsistent at maintaining case sensitivity when typing links, Zend Framework actually normalizes path information to lowercase. This, of course, will affect how you name your controller and actions... or refer to them in links.
If you wish to have your controller class or action method name have multiple MixedCasedWords or camelCasedWords, you will need to separate those words on the url with either a '-' or '.' (though you can configure the character used).
As an example, if you were going to the action in FooBarController::bazBatAction(), you'd refer to it on the url as /foo-bar/baz-bat or /foo.bar/baz.bat.
I am Ziyan, the one who asked the question in the first place.
After not finding a solution in Google, I wondered in to making another module and ended up with the same plight. Confused I made a new installation of Zend Framework and made a module with the same name.
Zend\View\Renderer\PhpRenderer::render: Unable to render template "query-builder/query-builder/index"; resolver could not resolve to a file did not go away.
Knowing it is not some thing like reconfiguration, I looked closer.
It seemed to put a dash between every word. I was like Zend is insane! But no, it seems to be splitting the Module name from each upper case letter and adjoining them using a '-' (dash).
In my case QueryBuilder becomes query-builder or plugin named HelloModules would be hello-modules.
So the view manager seems to be looking for ../views/query-builder/query-builder/index.
In my case, ZF Helper for Sublime text needs to look in to the situation. If you could fix the plugin at GitHub it would be great. I will give a try my self.
I couldn't find any proof for my claiming and no time to go through the source codes. Would be glad if some one provide some links.

The requested URL /drupalhr/drupal/employee/add/ was not found on this server

I have created a custom module in drupal with entities. I have installed the entity api module. I have created my database schema with just two columns (employee_id, first_name) through the help of employee_management.install file (where as employee_management is my custom module name) and employee is my entity name.
I have also written the requisite functions employee_management.module but still it shows me the error , Whenever i tried to add a new entity in the admin/structure/employee it shows me the following error: "Not Found".
The requested URL drupal/employee/add/ was not found on this server.
function employee_management_entity_info() {
$employee_info['employee'] = array(
// A human readable label to identify our entity.
'label' => t('Employee Entity'),
// The controller for our Entity - extends the Drupal core controller.
'controller class' => 'EmployeeController',
// The table defined in hook_schema()
'base table' => 'employee',
// Returns the uri elements of an entity
'uri callback' => 'employee',
// Fieldable that we can attach fields to it - the core functionality will
// do the heavy lifting here.
'fieldable' => TRUE,
// The unique key of our base table.
'entity keys' => array(
'id' => 'employee_id',
),
// FALSE disables caching - caching functionality is handled by Drupal core
'static cache' => TRUE,
// Attach bundles - i.e. alternative configurations of fields associated with a main entity.
'bundles' => array(
'employee' => array(
'label' => 'Employee',
// Information below is used by the Field UI - they "attach" themselves here and lets us
// do the standard field management that all the core entities enjoy.
'admin' => array(
'path' => 'admin/structure/employee/add',
'access arguments' => array('administer employee entities'),
),
),
),
// View modes allow entities to be displayed differently based on context. We simply have one option
// here but an alternative would be to have a Full and Teaser mode akin to node.
'view modes' => array(
'full' => array(
'label' => t('Full'),
'custom settings' => FALSE,
),
)
);
return $employee_info;
}
EDIT
function employee_uri($employee) {
return array(
'path' => 'employee/' . $employee->employee_id,
);
}
And here is the complete list of function in the file employee_management.module
You don't automagically get the route and form to create your entity, you'll have to implement that yourself. See hook_menu and this guide.
