Skip to main content

Why is my JavaScript/jquery code in my Functions.php file only working on the first loaded post on my WordPress site?

WARNING: I am new to coding so I apologize if some of this does not make sense

I am working on a WordPress site where the content will be replaced each week (any posts, media or files are wiped from the WP environment each week, and then repopulated with all new content, and so on).

One of the main features of the post pages, is that I will have to copy and paste local URLs from a Word document directly into the WordPress post. Since the original hyperlinks lead to a file saved on my local system, the hyperlinks obviously do not link properly on the WordPress site. I have created a small script for this using REGEX concepts to automatically change hyperlinks depending on the category.

This code snip-it is saved in my functions.php file (loads locally saved script that does the actual link change magic):

    Function load_js_assets_Tab2 () {
       if( in_category('10')) {
            wp_enqueue_script('tab2LinkReplace','https://hq-wpserver/wordpress/wp-content/tab2LinkReplace.js', array('jquery'), '', true);
       }
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_js_assets_Tab2'); 
      

THE PROBLEM:

For some reason, this script only works on the first post I load, then does not apply to all the following auto loaded posts. No matter which post I click first, the script works, but will not for any following posts as I scroll down through the posts. The 'auto load next post' feature is built right into my template Newsblock (https://newsblocktheme.com/).

I am assuming this has something to do with the fact that the auto load next post feature is done via AJAX loading, but I have no idea how to fix this.

If any one has any suggestions, work arounds or ideas on how to approach this differently... I would really appreciate it!

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
