Go to Extensions > Edit Link

Is the cookie set? I recently had to rename mine and reset it to get it to work.

YES! That worked! Wonder what made it unset itself?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_article_edit - public site edit link

Here’s another (simpler, but maybe I’m missing something) way to add a class option to this plug-in.

Dig down to the last few lines of the plug-in.

You’re looking for:
bc. extract(lAtts(array(

Once you find that you’ll see it has two lines of code after that:
bc. ‘prefix’ => ‘’,
‘suffix’ => ‘’

Add a comma to the end of the suffix line:
bc. ‘suffix’ => ‘’,

Add a new line after that one:
bc. ‘class’ => ‘articleedit’

Modify the code that follows in the plug-in to include the new class:

return isset($_COOKIE[$rss_ae_cookie]) ? $prefix.'<a class="'.$class.'" href="'.hu.'textpattern/index.php?event=article&amp;step=edit&amp;ID='.$thisarticle['thisid'].'">'.parse($thing).'</a>'.$suffix : "";
}

That’s it.

As for this Textile mess.. I give up. :(

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_article_edit - public site edit link

Is there a way for this plugin to move to the ‘write’ tab?
The reason is that I would like to allow staff writers and copy editors to utilise the ‘edit’ cookie.
The extensions tab contains plugins parsing sensitive information, rss_admin_db_manager, to mention but one which I would not want anyone else to reach.

Forget it… I figured it out:)

Prax, thanks for the hack! Works well!
If somebody copies and pastes the line frome above that is not marked as code (‘class’ => ‘articleedit’): won’t work as these are curly quotes. Use your keyboard for straight quotes.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_article_edit - public site edit link

Problem:
Users get confused about how to get back to the page they were on when they clicked the edit link. I know you can press the back button twice, but it’s a pain doing it for every article you edit.

Solution:
I’d like to add the capability to augment the action of the save button to also automatically return the user to the page they were on when they clicked the edit link. I think this could be done by writing and reading a cookie.

Anyone got the skills to code this, I don’t.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_article_edit - public site edit link

What you intend needs two article editing modes: one for single article editing, when the users are coming in from the rss_edit link, the other one for batch editing articles only on the admin side. If using the “view” link in mode one is too much for them, won’t switching to mode two and back again be even more difficult/theoretical for them?

Elliot, I think this has nothing to do with this plugin but with the way browsers administer cookies (or is this an FF only behavior?). Just try logging into TXP’s admin side the way you did with the plugin.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_article_edit - public site edit link

I’ve installed this set the cookie – put the code in my Footer form.

When I run it I get MySql errors.

Warning:

Error: ‘’ is not an integer

textpattern/include/txp_article.php:751 assert_int()
textpattern/include/txp_article.php:320 checkIfNeighbour()
textpattern/include/txp_article.php:50 article_edit()
textpattern/index.php:116 include()

The link from the edit text is as follows
http://www.mysite.com/textpattern/index.php?event=article&step=edit&ID=
it seems to be missing a value for ID? + any other vars passed after?

Thanks Geoff

The Solution is here

I’ve installed this set the cookie – put the code in my Footer form.

Not footer, article form is required! From the documentation: Add the rss_editlink tag to your article form
