Yet another "just to bring you up to speed" post

16th Jul 2006 ¥åßßå

Due to my crap internet connection I've not done a lot of serious work on the web :( (sorry Scott, I'll get round to converting your rands_blab soon)

Minor shit I've done includes adding the info and geek things to the toolbar. I did it the quick way by just adding it to the buttons array and then spitting out the whole toolbar again (hence why you'll see double in admin). When I get a chance (and my connection sorts it's shit out) I'm gonna look at creating a toolbar plugin and converting the current quicktags and smilies plugins to use them. If it all works then I'll submit it to cvs to see if we can get it in the core.

I've also added (another) post to OnDeck, You'll probably want to fluff it out a tad Scott, but I'm actually happy to publish it as is ;). If you do fluff it, or if you decide it doesn't need fluffing, can you make a post on the forums as well?

Danny : I still haven't got round to converting all the forms in your democracy plugin. Is this something you're working on or do you want me to do the conversion?

EdB : I've uploaded (and installed) your cc plugin. I made a couple of minor changes to it
1/ I moved the plugin.php into the cc_plugin folder and changed the 3 file references to suit. This was just to make it easier when I'm browsing the folders on the server.
2/ I added the AM update code which means we can add it to our update manager (when I finish recoding/testing it for 1.8)
If you want to make a post (here) about it and link it to your blog (or we can handle the download as well, whichever you prefer) then feel free ;)

If you want to make the plugin (or any plugin) AmUpdate aware then you just need to add this line to it :-

	[bg=#ffc]function am_update( & $params ){ $params = array( 'name' =>$this->code, 'version' => $this->version ); }[/bg]

}
?>

Not that it'll do anything until after I finish the update manager plugin, but once I do users will be able to tell if there's a newer version of the plugin available from the tools tab

Have fun,
¥

The poll plugin is on my list, but it's near the bottom. If you get time, go ahead and fix it up and release it.

1: In my v1.8 install, the HTML checker is barfing on the usual "style", "id", "mouseover" and such. Rather than edit the _formatting file directly, is there a way to create something (plugin, hack file, etc.) that will either mod _formating on the fly, allow user-defined XHTML tags/subtags/attributes? (Just an idea).

2: Does the new post on OnDeck (bypass comment mod) actually work now? :p If so, then I'll fluff it and get it posted.

3: The collapsing archives look great. One problem ... the months are still links and they only regenerate the front page. :| (Is it a plugin or an AM-specific thing, added directly to _main)?

Danny : no prob, I'll get on with it as soon as my connection sorts its shit out :(

Fluffer :-
1/urm, possibly, but it won't be pretty (should be doable from a plugin)... syaing that, I just hacked formatting.php for here :p
2/ assume you know the answer from your unmoderated comment ;)
3/ ffs - I really shouldn't show you shit 'til it's finished. I just swiftly converted the 1.6 version of the plugin but, since then, I've pretty much decided to recode it from the ground up so I'll cure that at the same time (although I'm "fairly" sure that it's the custom stuff we have running here that's clashing)

Scott, I just tried the month links and they appear to work for me?

I'm still considering recoding the plugin though. At the moment it's pretty much just a copy of the current archives plugin with a tad of extra functionality, whereas all that's really needed is the extra functionality.

PS ... It looks like the ARchive JS is messing with the enhanced "
