I made a custom widget for my template, which has an image upload section
For the first time, I upload an image, it displays correctly, without any problem, but when I want to change the image, it does not change, it displays the same image as before, that part of the image cannot be updated.
Thank you for your guidance

I followed a guide to create a WordPress plugin, which shows a youtube sub button on your page.
In the guide it works perfectly, but for some reason it doesn't work for me.
This is my problem:
When I var_dump($instance) in widget() it prints out an empty array, but when I try to print_r($instance) inside of my form() it prints out the correct information
Here is the widget file:

I have this hooked up with my plugin file in where I register the widget:
// Register Widget
function register_myplugin() {
register_widget('Youtube_Subs_Widget');
}
// Hook in function
add_action('widgets_init', 'register_myplugin');
I hope someone knows what is wrong and can help me correct my mistake, thanks in advance
I tried to reinstall my WordPress file and it worked afterwards
A day before tomorrow, I developed a custom widget for my Recent WordPress theme. In that widget, have an image upload field with some other fields. I have done everything and the widget is working very well except one problem. When I am dragging the widget in sidebar and giving the information needed in all fields, its showing fine in front-end. But after that when I am trying to change the image from that widget back-end then the save button remain saved. Image doesn’t change.
Codes are below:
class Themeslug_About_Widget extends WP_widget{
public function __construct(){
parent::__construct('author_info', esc_html__( 'About Info Box', 'blogista' ), array(
'description' => esc_html__( 'About Info Box contain brief about Author/ Company.', 'blogista' ),
));
}
public function widget( $args, $instance ){
echo $args['before_widget'];
echo $args['before_title'] . $instance['title'] . $args['after_title'];
?>
<img src="<?php echo $instance['author_box_image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $instance['title']; ?>" />
<div class="widget-content">
<h3 class="title">
<?php echo $instance['author_name']; ?>
</h3>
</div>
<?php
echo $args['after_widget'];
}
public function form( $instance ){
$title = '';
if( !empty( $instance['title'] ) ) {
$title = $instance['title'];
}
$author_box_image = '';
if( ! empty( $instance['author_box_image'] ) ) {
$author_box_image = $instance['author_box_image'];
}
?>
<p>
<label for="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('title'); ?>"><?php _e( 'Title:', 'blogista' ); ?></label>
<input type="text" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $title ); ?>" name="<?php echo $this->get_field_name('title'); ?>" id="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('title'); ?>" class="widefat">
</p>
<p>
<button class="button button-primary" id="author_info_image"><?php _e( 'Upload Image', 'blogista' ); ?></button>
<input type="hidden" name="<?php echo $this->get_field_name('author_box_image'); ?>" id="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('author_box_image'); ?>" class="image_link" value="<?php echo esc_url( $author_box_image ); ?>" >
<div class="image_show">
<img src="<?php echo $instance['author_box_image']; ?>" width="200" height="auto" alt="">
</div>
</p>
<?php
}
public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
$instance = array();
$instance['title'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['title'] ) ) ? esc_attr( $new_instance['title'] ) : '';
$instance['author_box_image'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['author_box_image'] ) ) ? esc_url( $new_instance['author_box_image'] ) : '';
return $instance;
}
}
function themeslug_admin_enqueue_scrits(){
wp_enqueue_media();
wp_enqueue_script( 'admin_custom_script', get_theme_file_uri() . '/js/libs/admin_scripts.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0', true );
}
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'themeslug_admin_enqueue_scrits' );
Then added the below jQuery code:
(function($){
$(document).ready(function(){
$('button#author_info_image').on("click",function( e ){
e.preventDefault();
var imageUploader = wp.media({
'title' : 'Upload Author Image',
'button' : {
'text' : 'Set The Image'
},
'multiple' : false
});
imageUploader.open();
imageUploader.on("select", function(){
var image = imageUploader.state().get("selection").first().toJSON();
var link = image.url;
$("input.image_link").val( link );
$(".image_show img").attr('src', link);
});
});
});
}(jQuery))
Every thing is working fine first time but when trying to change the image then Widget save button remain saved.
Please Help.
Thanks in Advance.
I will Suggest you to follow my way to create your custom widget using image upload system.
public function widget( $args, $instance ) {
// Our variables from the widget settings
$title = apply_filters( 'widget_title', empty( $instance['title'] ) ? __( 'Default title', 'text_domain' ) : $instance['title'] );
$image = ! empty( $instance['image'] ) ? $instance['image'] : '';
ob_start();
echo $args['before_widget'];
if ( ! empty( $instance['title'] ) ) {
echo $args['before_title'] . $title . $args['after_title'];
}
?>
<?php if($image): ?>
<img src="<?php echo esc_url($image); ?>" alt="">
<?php endif; ?>
<?php
echo $args['after_widget'];
ob_end_flush();
}
And the form function will be:
public function form( $instance ) {
$title = ! empty( $instance['title'] ) ? $instance['title'] : __( 'New title', 'text_domain' );
$image = ! empty( $instance['image'] ) ? $instance['image'] : '';
?>
<p>
<label for="<?php echo $this->get_field_id( 'title' ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Title:' ); ?></label>
<input class="widefat" id="<?php echo $this->get_field_id( 'title' ); ?>" name="<?php echo $this->get_field_name( 'title' ); ?>" type="text" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $title ); ?>">
</p>
<p>
<label for="<?php echo $this->get_field_id( 'image' ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Image:' ); ?></label>
<input class="widefat" id="<?php echo $this->get_field_id( 'image' ); ?>" name="<?php echo $this->get_field_name( 'image' ); ?>" type="text" value="<?php echo esc_url( $image ); ?>" />
<button class="upload_image_button button button-primary">Upload Image</button>
</p>
<?php
}
And here is the update function:
public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
$instance = array();
$instance['title'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['title'] ) ) ? strip_tags( $new_instance['title'] ) : '';
$instance['image'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['image'] ) ) ? $new_instance['image'] : '';
return $instance;
}
As you can see, I’ve added a button underneath image input field with class “.upload_image_button”, but it will not work for now and to make it work, need to add our custom admin JavaScript.
First need to create javascript file and put it into your theme, let’s create a file, called our_admin.js in assets/js under your theme folder.
Next you will need to register and enqueue our script to make it load in the admin panel, so lets add few lines to widget class constructor function:
function __construct() {
// Add Widget scripts
add_action('admin_enqueue_scripts', array($this, 'scripts'));
parent::__construct(
'our_widget', // Base ID
__( 'Our Widget Title', 'text_domain' ), // Name
array( 'description' => __( 'Our Widget with media files', 'text_domain' ), ) // Args
);
}
And you will need then “scripts” function in our widget class:
public function scripts()
{
wp_enqueue_script( 'media-upload' );
wp_enqueue_media();
wp_enqueue_script('our_admin', get_template_directory_uri() . '/assets/js/our_admin.js', array('jquery'));
}
As you can notice, I added wp_enqueue_script( ‘media-upload’ ); and wp_enqueue_media(); to enqueue media library popup scripts.
And finally, here is js script, that will call WordPress media library popup and put selected image into the input field:
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
$(document).on("click", ".upload_image_button", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var $button = $(this);
// Create the media frame.
var file_frame = wp.media.frames.file_frame = wp.media({
title: 'Select or upload image',
library: { // remove these to show all
type: 'image' // specific mime
},
button: {
text: 'Select'
},
multiple: false // Set to true to allow multiple files to be selected
});
// When an image is selected, run a callback.
file_frame.on('select', function () {
// We set multiple to false so only get one image from the uploader
var attachment = file_frame.state().get('selection').first().toJSON();
$button.siblings('input').val(attachment.url);
});
// Finally, open the modal
file_frame.open();
});
});
Now compare your code and you will see the error.
I will suggest to use Plugin to show author information to save your time.
I'm trying out wordpress widgets, and I took this code from https://vedmant.com/using-wordpress-media-library-in-widgets-options/. The widget is supposed to let you upload your own images via the wordpress media library. The code works to open up the media library, upload an image and choose it, but the image won't change to show the new image.
Here's the code (also on the site):
I read some other treads on similar things, and tried to look up refreshing widgets, but I can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for. I think the problem is that the textbox will fill with the image URL but it won't refresh because Wordpress thinks nothing changed. Any ideas on what I can do?
<?php
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'myw_init' );
function myw_init() {
register_widget( 'my_widget' );

public function form( $instance ) {

$image = ! empty( $instance['image'] ) ? $instance['image'] : '';

<?php
}
/**

public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
$instance = array();
$instance['title'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['title'] ) ) ? strip_tags( $new_instance['title'] ) : '';
$instance['image'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['image'] ) ) ? $new_instance['image'] : '';
return $instance;
}
}
And for the jQuery:
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
$(document).on("click", ".upload_image_button", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var $button = $(this);
// Create the media frame.
var file_frame = wp.media.frames.file_frame = wp.media({
title: 'Select or upload image',
library: { // remove these to show all
type: 'image' // specific mime
},
button: {
text: 'Select'
},
multiple: false // Set to true to allow multiple files to be selected
});
// When an image is selected, run a callback.
file_frame.on('select', function () {
// We set multiple to false so only get one image from the uploader
var attachment = file_frame.state().get('selection').first().toJSON();
$button.siblings('input').val(attachment.url);
});
// Finally, open the modal
file_frame.open();
});
});
You can add a query parameter to the image URL to force it to be unique, e.g.:
<img src="<?php echo esc_url($image); ?>?<?php echo time() ?>" alt="">
I have done this widget. In the admin area, when I change the value of the variables number, small and large are not saved. And in the frontend i have this notice:

The same for all variables except the title variable.

I dont know what is bad, i have done other widgets and i haven´t had this problem i think i have write the same code. Any help this?
You need to assign a value to variables before calling them. Do not always assume a user will give you all data required.
function widget( $args, $instance ) {
extract( $args );

Place this at the top of your function like so:
class My_Widget extends WP_Widget {
protected $defaults;
function _construct(){
$this->defaults = array(
'title' => '',
'number' => 5,
'small' => 1,
'large' => 10,
);
}
// etc etc rest of class functions ...
}
Then include this extra line at the top of your form function kind of like so:
function form($instance) {
$instance = wp_parse_args( (array) $instance, $this->defaults );
// etc etc, rest of form ...
}
Obviously it may make sense for you to setup real defaults, but empty ones may at least remove the warnings and notices you receive.
I just updated my widget plugin. It had the same issue as yours. Here is the example to use that goes with my answer:
http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/sm-sticky-featured-widget/tags/1.2.5/sticky-featured-widget.php
The code below is an attempt to take the WP_Widget_Categories class and use it as the basis for a custom categories widget based on the default categories widget.
I'm getting no output however and the widget is not showing up in the "Available Widgets" listing. What am I doing wrong?

You'll need to use register_widget rather than register_sidebar_widget, as that function is for the old style widgets (that didn't extend WP_Widget or were just functions). You should to do this from a function hooked into the widgets_init action. See the Wordpress widgets API documentation for more info: http://codex.wordpress.org/Widgets_API
The following plugin works for me in WP 2.9.

I think you can use built-in wp function using this.
<?php
$args = array(
'name' => $this->get_field_name('category'),
'show_option_none' => __( 'Select category' ),
'show_count' => 1,
'orderby' => 'name',
'echo' => 0,
'selected' => $category,
'class' => 'widefat'
);
echo wp_dropdown_categories($args);
?>
