I have a problem in getting url of featured image post. I’ve created a function with wp_insert post to post data and set featured image for them. everything works fine except displaying the url of featured image. here is my code :
$newpostname=$movie['title'];
global $wpdb;
$id_ofpost_name = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_name = '$newpostname'");
$id_ofpost_title = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_title = '$newpostname'");
if ($id_ofpost_name || $id_ofpost_title) {echo 'post Exist';}
else {
// Register Post Data
$post = array();
$post['post_status'] = 'publish';
$post['post_type'] = 'post'; // can be a CPT too
$post['post_title'] = $newpostname;
$post['post_content'] = '';
$post['post_author'] = 1;
// Create Post
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
// Add Featured Image to Post
$image_url = $movie['urlPoster'];
$upload_dir = wp_upload_dir(); // Set upload folder
$image_data = file_get_contents($image_url); // Get image data
$filename = basename($image_url); // Create image file name
// Check folder permission and define file location
if( wp_mkdir_p( $upload_dir['path'] ) ) {
$file = $upload_dir['path'] . '/' . $filename;
} else {
$file = $upload_dir['basedir'] . '/' . $filename;
}
// Create the image file on the server
file_put_contents( $file, $image_data );
// Check image file type
$wp_filetype = wp_check_filetype( $filename, null );
// Set attachment data
$attachment = array(
'post_mime_type' => $wp_filetype['type'],
'post_title' => sanitize_file_name( $filename ),
'post_content' => '',
'post_status' => 'inherit'
);
// Create the attachment
$attach_id = wp_insert_attachment( $attachment, $file, $post_id );
// Include image.php
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/image.php');
// Define attachment metadata
$attach_data = wp_generate_attachment_metadata( $attach_id, $file );
// Assign metadata to attachment
wp_update_attachment_metadata( $attach_id, $attach_data );
// And finally assign featured image to post
set_post_thumbnail( $post_id, $attach_id );
}
post inserting works perfect .the problem is i want to get the url of featured image after wp_insert_post and featured image uploaded.
any clues ?
You already have the attachment ID, so you can simply use
wp_get_attachment_link()
