I am building a custom registration form for users where they have to upload an image of government ID. Using AJAX for submission.

The handler function always returning a 404 status error, no matter what. Whereas, the user gets registered and the file gets uploaded. Please tell me where I am doing wrong?

Here are my codes..

Form HTML:

<div class="col-lg-6 offset-lg-3 mt-4">

  • If your handler does get executed, then it's probably a plugin or custom code that caused the error 404 - are you very sure it's 404 and that it's not actually from another request on the page? Try inspecting the network requests.

  • @SallyCJ I already inspected network requests. Cleaned the network request log before initiating the AJAX call. There are no other simultaneous request. I guess the problem is with the file upload part. If I comment out that section, the codes fully work.

  • Honestly, your code seems fine to me, so I suggest you to try deactivating your plugins to check if it's a plugin issue.

I can't find the define of the ajaxurl variable. The 404 is inevitable.

Usually, you need to define it in your function or directly in a wp_localize_script action.

Dont't forget to replace the wp_ajax_pn_reg_vendors, to make it work, even the user is not yet connect.
