Hello!
I'm creating a plugin that adds an option to the native WP gallery.
When a new gallery is created (clicking the "Create Gallery" button in the media popup), a <select> is added, and I have a backbone event listening for the 'change' event of this <select>.
However, I only want to listen for the change event when the gallery is being newly created, rather than when editing an existing gallery.
My code so far is:
wp.media.view.Settings.Gallery = wp.media.view.Settings.Gallery.extend({
events: function() {
var the_events = {};
//NEED TO GET STATE (ie, 'creating gallery for first time' rather than 'edit gallery'....
var is_create_gallery = true;
//IF WE'RE EDITING, SET IT TO FALSE
//--here--
if (is_create_gallery) {
_.extend( the_events, { 'change select[data-setting="gallerytype"]' : 'gallerytypechanged' } );
}
return the_events;
},
gallerytypechanged: function( e ){
e.preventDefault();
var self = this;
var gallery_type = jQuery( e.currentTarget ).val();
if( gallery_type != 'native' ){
self.update.apply( self, ['gallerytype'] );
}
return self;
},
template: function(view) {
return wp.media.template('gallery-settings')(view) + wp.media.template('delight-gallery-type')(view);
},
});
Basically the --here-- code should be a check to determine whether we're editing an existing gallery, or creating a new one.
Does anybody know where to check which state we're in?
Thanks!
