I have started some blogs using Weebly now I want to do several changes to the blog UI, everything went well until I wanted to do this. I wanted to get the image path from the image inside blog-content and set it on the blog-post-image. In my head, this jquery looks logical, but somewhere error lays.
Few things to care about, I should use each because there are many of the blog posts and I cannot use ids because of the same reason, cannot use the same id multiple times.
HTML:
$('.blog-post-image').each(function() {
var $me = $(this);
var blogPostImage = $me.siblings('.blog-content').children('img').attr('src');
$me.attr('src', blogPostImage);
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="blog-post-746510653886732592" class="blog-post">
<div class="blog-header">
<div class="blog-post-container">
<h2 class="blog-title">
</h2>
<p class="blog-date">
<span class="date-text">
15/6/2021
</span>
</p>
<div>
<img class="blog-post-image" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="blog-content">
<div>
<div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center">
<a>
<img src="/uploads/7/7/9/0/77909082/820610853.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:100%;max-width:1100px">
</a>
<div style="display:block;font-size:90%">
</div>
</div>
</div>
Two things:
1.) .blog-content
is not a sibling of .blog-post-image
2.) .children()
only looks one level deep to find the element you are looking for.
What you need to do is traverse upwards to find a sibling of .blog-content
and then use the .find()
function to do a deep search of the given DOM node to find what you're looking for.
$('.blog-post-image').each(function() {
var me = $(this);
var blogPostImage = me.parent().parent().parent().siblings('.blog-content').find('img').attr('src');
me.attr('src', blogPostImage);
});
