The code I'm using go to the test domain, get the profile's information from a php call that returns JSON, and then the JSON can be pushed to the WordPress/BuddyPress database.
The only problem is that I'm a front end developer wearing a backend's hat, so I'm learning as I go.
How can I check to see if the user_id already has entries under field_id (value 1 & 2) that have filled in values? And if that exists, simply update the entries. If it doesn't exist, simply create them.
Code I'm working with:
$band_id = $_GET['band_id'];
$ch = curl_init();
// set url
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://test.yourocktheworld.com/getProfile.php?band_id=".$band_id);
//return the transfer as a string
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
// $output contains the output string
$output = curl_exec($ch);
$json_a=json_decode($output,true);
// array method
foreach($json_a[profile] as $p)
{
echo '
Band ID: '.$p[band_id].'
Band Name: '.$p[band_name].'
Band Latitude: '.$p[bandlatit].'
Band Longitude: '.$p[bandlongt].'
';
}
global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
echo '<br /><br />WordPress ID: ' . $current_user->ID . "<br /><br />";
// field_id 2 = Longitude
// field_id 3 = Latitude
$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO wp_bp_xprofile_data SET value=$p[bandlongt], field_id=2, user_id=$current_user->ID ON DUPLICATE KEY SET value=$p[bandlongt], field_id=2, user_id=$current_user->ID;");
$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO wp_bp_xprofile_data SET value=$p[bandlatit], field_id=3, user_id=$current_user->ID ON DUPLICATE KEY SET value=$p[bandlatit], field_id=3, user_id=$current_user->ID;");
curl_close($ch);Columns I'm working with
