I have a section for "tours" in my page.

The tours have 2 filters (select inputs). "destino" and "duracion" (location and duration)

So far I made one of the filter work with ajax, and update the "#result" id with the new tours once you select a "destino".

But i also want to update the "duracion" select with the new options (based on the destino selected).

Problem is, i have no idea how to execute two actions and have the response on two different places.

Html part: (here I have both actions, its only executing the last one)

<form class="filtros righter" action="**********/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php" method="POST" id="filtro">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="filtertoursajax">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="filterduracionajax">
<input type="hidden" name="filtrodestino" value="salar-de-uyuni">

        <div class="select-holder">
        <label class="">Categoría</label>   
            <select name="categoriafilter" id="categoriafilter">
                <option disabled="" selected="" value="0">&nbsp;</option>
                <option value="0">Todas las categorías</option>
                <option value="11">Clásicos</option>
                <option value="33">Elite</option>
            </select>
        </div>
        <div class="select-holder"> 
        <label>Duración del viaje</label>
            <select name="duracionfilter" id="resultselect">
                <option disabled="" selected="" value="0">&nbsp;</option>
                <option value="0">Todas las duraciones</option>
            </select>
        </div>
</form>

Js part:

<script>
jQuery(function myFunction(){
$('#filtro').change(function(){
    var filter = $('#filtro');
    $.ajax({
        url:filter.attr('action'),
        data:filter.serialize(), // form data
        type:filter.attr('method'), // POST
        beforeSend:function(xhr, data){
            filter.find('button').text('Processing...'); // changing the button label
        },
        success:function(data){
            filter.find('button').text('Apply filter'); // changing the button label back
            $('#response').html(data); // insert data
            console.log(data);
        },
        error: function(req, err){ console.log(err);
        }
    });
    return false;
});

});

Im very new with Ajax, this code is made by pieces of tutorials i found. The code is mostly made following this tutorial: https://rudrastyh.com/wordpress/ajax-post-filters.html
I just need both php actions to execute on "form" change and update the "tours" on #response div and also update the select input with #resultselect id.

Thanks!


Thanks to @lewis4you I’m able to get the data on the 2 divs at the same time. But i fail to understand how to execute both actions at the same time, but with different actions from functions.php

This

add_action('wp_ajax_filterduracionajax', 'filterduracionajax'); // 
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_filterduracionajax', 'filterduracionajax');

has to return data to #resultselect

and

add_action('wp_ajax_filtertoursajax', 'filtertoursajax'); 
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_filtertoursajax', 'filtertoursajax');

has to return data to #response div

My main problem is that i dont know how to select the action i want to execute in

$.ajax({
          url:filter.attr('action'),
          data:filter.serialize(), // form data
          type:filter.attr('method'), // POST

  1. I didn’t read the question fully but I think you want something like this:

    $('#filtro').change(function() {
        var filter = $('#filtro');
        ajax1(filter);
        ajax2(filter);
    });
    
    
    function ajax1(filter) {
     $.ajax({
        url:filter.attr('action'),
        data:filter.serialize(), // form data
        // ... further code
    }
    
    function ajax2(filter) {
     $.ajax({
        url:filter.attr('action'),
        data:filter.serialize(), // form data
        // ... further code
    }
    

    The scenario where you send the data to the same controller from one $.ajax call:

    $('#filtro').change(function() {
        var filter = $('#filtro');
        ajax1(filter);
    });
    

    in controller you have to store the data into array with keys so you can access it later in ajax success() function

    public function someFunction($dataFromAjax) {
    
        // do something with $dataFromAjax
    
        $dataForDivs = [
            'div1' => 'some data',
            'div2' => 'some data2'
        ];
    
        return $dataForDivs;
    }
    

    then in your $ajax in success:function(data) you can access that data with

    success:function(data) {
        let div1Data = data.responseJSON.div1;
        let div2Data = data.responseJSON.div2;
        filter.find('button').text(div1Data); // changing the button label back
        $('#response').html(div2Data); // insert data
        console.log(div1Data, div2Data);
    },

  2. Have you thought of using JS’s Fetch API instead of jQuery’s Ajax? Fetch returns a promise then it can execute a chain of .then() blocks where you can put another fetch() to your PHP url.

    See an example here:

    using a fetch inside another fetch in javascript
