I am not sure if this is the correct way as it post repeatedly but does the work so far.
In my JS:
//GET SELECTED POSTS/PAGES FOR DELETION
$("#delete_selection").click(function(event) {
/* stop form from submitting normally */
event.preventDefault();
$.each($('input[name="delete_selection[]"]:checked'), function() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'post_delete_selection',
data:
{ selected: $(this).val() },
success: function(data){
setTimeout(function () {
window.location.href = window.location.href;
}, 1000);
$('#ajax_message').show().html('Successfully deleted.');
},
});
});
});
My Controller:
public function post_delete_selection(){
$selectedIds = $_POST['selected']; //THIS GRABS THE VALUES FROM THE AJAX
$this->posts_model->delete_post_selection($selectedIds);
}
My Model:
function delete_post_selection($selectedIds) {
$this->db->where_in('post_id', $selectedIds)->delete('posts');
return true;
}
THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE NOW IS THE CONFIRMATION BECAUSE RIGHT NOW IT JUST DELETE THE SELECTED CHECKBOXES. =)
