I am trying to make new portfolio item for every json item from external api. I am working on WordPress and placed my code in functions.php of the theme used. When i run my code, it creates portfolio items more than necessary. The items seem to randomly get duplicated even tho i have made validation statement and made sure that each post lug is unique. I want it to stop when the array in json file finishes. Unfortunately I can’t share the api link because it is not supposed to be open-source. It consists of one page. $ model and $ results get correct info. I am new to these WP functions and API thing and got really confused at this point. Hope someone can help me out!:
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_get_3dmodels_from_api', 'get_3dmodels_from_api'); add_action('wp_ajax_get_3dmodels_from_api', 'get_3dmodels_from_api'); function get_3dmodels_from_api(){ $ results = wp_remote_retrieve_body(wp_remote_get('<api-url-here>', array( 'timeout' => 120, 'httpversion' => '1.1', ) ) ); $ results = json_decode($ results); //print_r($ results); foreach($ results->scenes as $ model) { $ model_slug = sanitize_title($ model->name. '-' . $ model->id); $ existing_model = get_page_by_path($ model_slug, 'OBJECT', 'portfolio'); if ($ existing_model === null) { $ inserted_model = wp_insert_post([ 'post_name'=> $ model_slug, 'post_title'=> $ model_slug, 'post_type'=> 'portfolio', 'post_status' => 'publish', ]); if (is_wp_error($ inserted_model)) { return false; } $ fillable = [ 'field_605dcef7001bc' => 'name', 'field_605dcf01001bd' => 'description', 'field_605dcf09001be' => 'category', 'field_605dcf13001bf' => 'preview', ]; foreach($ fillable as $ key => $ name) { $ model_content = $ model->$ name; if ($ name == 'preview') { $ model_content = '<img src=' . $ model->$ name . '" alt="">'; } update_field($ key, $ model_content, $ inserted_model); } } wp_remote_post(admin_url ('admin-ajax.php?action=get_3dmodels_from_api'), [ 'blocking' => false, 'sslverify' => false, ]); } Thank you!
