Hello @raki

The asgarosforum_after_add_topic_submit hook should be the correct one. Here is an example:

function save_color($post_id, $topic_id, $subject, $content, $link, $author_id) {
    if (!empty($_POST['forum_color'])) {
        // Save it somewhere.
    }
}
add_action('asgarosforum_after_add_topic_submit', 'save_color', 10, 6);

The only thing you have to think about is where you want to save it. For example you can but it into an field in the WordPress options-table – accessible by an key based on the topic-id: asgarosforum_topic_1234_color.

Hi @asgaros

Thanks for your fast reply and your help! Gah, sometimes it’s just too easy 😉

One last question though: Is there a filter for editing the row-view? I’d like to add a custom attribute to the div.topic-element in the topic overview.

Hello @raki

Yes, you can add custom columns to a topic-row with the asgarosforum_custom_topic_column hook. It uses one parameter: The ID of the topic.

Hi @asgaros

I’ve found that hook (and I’ll use that if there’s no other option) – I was just wondering if there is a hook for modifying the div.topic itself (instead of adding another column into  it). 🙂

1. function save_color($post_id, $topic_id, $subject, $content, $link, $author_id) {
2. if (!empty($_POST[‘forum_color’])) {
3. // Save it somewhere.
4. }
5. }
6. add_action(‘asgarosforum_after_add_topic_submit’, ‘save_color’, 10, 6);

function save_color($post_id, $topic_id, $subject, $content, $link, $author_id) {
    if (!empty($_POST['forum_color'])) {
        // Save it somewhere.

Hi @asgaros

I’ve saved the new data with add_option(), but how do I associate it with the topic-id? Thanks so much!

Hello @jackfukushima

You can for example save the topic-ID with the data itself inside of an array:

$var = array();
$var['topic_id'] = 1337;
$var['data'] = 'Your data ...';

Hi @asgaros

Thanks for the reply! I was actually trying to save the option of a custom input field for that specific topic. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks so much!

@jackfukushima Of course, but it depends on your PHP-implementation. If you use custom database-tables for it you have to use a SQL-query. Otherwise you can save it inside of the options using an identifier based on the topic-ID and the custom input-name.

Here is an additional example:

function save_color($post_id, $topic_id, $subject, $content, $link, $author_id) {
    if (!empty($_POST['topic_color'])) {
        add_option('topic_color'.$topic_id, $_POST['topic_color']);
    }
}
add_action('asgarosforum_after_add_topic_submit', 'save_color', 10, 6);
