I am creating a custom submit form (yes, its heavily customized to suit my needs) but the only problem is, when I try to upload the image (via Dropzone.js) or image url, the image doesn't upload and it is not set as featured image. The uploader can only upload images 1 at a time. Am I doing something wrong here? Unfortunately, I cannot link it to a website, as this is all done on localhost. Sorry if the code is messy, just making a basic functioning script before I secure it and clean it up.
Here's the code.
HEADING
<script src="<?php echo esc_url( get_template_directory_uri() ); ?>/js/ta.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/dropzone/4.0.1/dropzone.js"></script>
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/dropzone/4.0.1/dropzone.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script type="text/javascript">
Dropzone.autoDiscover = false;
Dropzone.options.myAwesomeDropzone = {
maxFiles: 1,
accept: function(file, done) {
console.log("uploaded");
done();
},
init: function() {
this.on("maxfilesexceeded", function(file){
alert("No more files please!");
});
}
};
$(document).ready(function() {
$( "#showurlupload" ).click(function() {
$( "#dropupload" ).slideToggle( "slow", function() {
// Animation complete.
$( "#urlupload" ).slideToggle( "slow", function() {
// Animation complete.
});
});
});
$("div#myAwesomeDropzone").dropzone({
url: "/file/post"
});
});</script>
</head>
