   Saving Data

   Unlike quick edit’s data saving process, we’ll save via Ajax calls.

   add_action( 'wp_ajax_save_bulk_edit_book', 'save_bulk_edit_book' );
   function save_bulk_edit_book() {
   	// TODO perform nonce checking
   	// get our variables
   	$post_ids           = ( ! empty( $_POST[ 'post_ids' ] ) ) ? $_POST[ 'post_ids' ] : array();
   	$book_author  = ( ! empty( $_POST[ 'book_author' ] ) ) ? $_POST[ 'book_author' ] : null;
   	$inprint = !! empty( $_POST[ 'inprint' ] );
   
   	// if everything is in order
   	if ( ! empty( $post_ids ) && is_array( $post_ids ) ) {
   		foreach( $post_ids as $post_id ) {
   			update_post_meta( $post_id, 'book_author', $book_author );
   			update_post_meta( $post_id, 'inprint', $inprint );
   		}
   	}
   
   	die();
   }

   • Nonsense, you can use save_post hook, as stated in the More Information section above.

   Calling Ajax

   Our updated scripts/admin_edit.js from quick_edit_custom_box.

   (function($) {
   	// we create a copy of the WP inline edit post function
   	var $wp_inline_edit = inlineEditPost.edit;
   	// and then we overwrite the function with our own code
   	inlineEditPost.edit = function( id ) {
   		// "call" the original WP edit function
   		// we don't want to leave WordPress hanging
   		$wp_inline_edit.apply( this, arguments );
   
   		// now we take care of our business
   
   		// get the post ID
   		var $post_id = 0;
   		if ( typeof( id ) == 'object' )
   			$post_id = parseInt( this.getId( id ) );
   
   		if ( $post_id > 0 ) {
   			// define the edit row
   			var $edit_row = $( '#edit-' + $post_id );
   			var $post_row = $( '#post-' + $post_id );
   
   			// get the data
   			var $book_author = $( '.column-book_author', $post_row ).html();
   			var $inprint = $( '.column-inprint', $post_row ).attr('checked');
   
   			// populate the data
   			$( ':input[name="book_author"]', $edit_row ).val( $book_author );
   			$( ':input[name="inprint"]', $edit_row ).attr('checked', $inprint );
   		}
   	};
   
   	$( document ).on( 'click', '#bulk_edit', function() {
   		// define the bulk edit row
   		var $bulk_row = $( '#bulk-edit' );
   
   		// get the selected post ids that are being edited
   		var $post_ids = new Array();
   		$bulk_row.find( '#bulk-titles' ).children().each( function() {
   			$post_ids.push( $( this ).attr( 'id' ).replace( /^(ttle)/i, '' ) );
   		});
   
   		// get the data
   		var $book_author = $bulk_row.find( 'textarea[name="book_author"]' ).val();
   		var $inprint = $bulk_row.find( 'input[name="inprint"]' ).attr('checked') ? 1 : 0;
   
   		// save the data
   		$.ajax({
   			url: ajaxurl, // this is a variable that WordPress has already defined for us
   			type: 'POST',
   			async: false,
   			cache: false,
   			data: {
   				action: 'save_bulk_edit_book', // this is the name of our WP AJAX function that we'll set up next
   				post_ids: $post_ids, // and these are the 2 parameters we're passing to our function
   				book_author: $book_author,
   				inprint: $inprint
   			}
   		});
   	});
   })(jQuery);
