Re: Plugin Requests

Hello guiguibonbon,

thanks for your write up, this is just a short reply so we don’t bog this thread down with too much detail. You are right about not limiting things to articles and that a lot of other static content needs translating. Both Graeme’s plugin and the prototype I have here do handle these situations but it seems in different ways from your language handler.

I simply have a new sed_if_language tag that allows the conditional output of the contained block on a language match. That allows articles, pages and forms to have multiple translations inside them. Seems to work fine on my test site and it supports searching without the need to make changes to support it. Graeme’s plugin handles things a little differently by switching in alternate content from an sql table according to the language selected.

I would like to hear more about your experiences so far though. Please feel free to contact me via the forum email and I will be happy to talk in greater detail about your scheme and experience doing this.

As for the permlinks, I understand that Graeme has a scheme to handle that.

Re: Plugin Requests

@ako , already downloaded and started to play with it, the real testing will take some time, since I will be off for a couple of days,
I’m having trouble finding a paypal link.

Re: Plugin Requests

Has anyone seen this?

http://www.alistapart.com/articles/magazinelayout

it allows for automatic resizing of a set of images within a defined area.
This would be very nice as a plugin.

Re: Plugin Requests

Yep, even commenters to that article think so.

(People always write “Text<strong>P</strong>attern”. Must be the all-caps of the logo that confuses the mind. I had the same problem in the beginning.)

Hi. I’m developing a commercial web site by using Textpattern. The site needs an exclusive area for clients. This plugin ign_password_protect almost suits my needs; however, I need certain modifications that my few abilities in Php and My SQL don’t allow me to reach.
I would like to know if there is someone (with a Pay Pal account) that could do that and how much it would cost.
This is what I need: the ign_password_protect allows creating new users with their own login and password. I would need to add a drop down with the site’s sections in order to associate to each user one particular section of the site.
Thanks,

José

This request should be coupled with the Section permissions. Without that, there is no reason to bind a user to a section.

Re: Plugin Requests

I’ll take a stab at the IMDB plugin. Didn’t even know IMDB had such features.

Re: Plugin Requests

Just a thought. I’m assuming that once claimed plugins are released, then pledgers make PayPal donations to the author, yes? So, since PayPal makes it so darn easy to create “donate” buttons, what if author’s created button code and we inserted it here next to the claimers name in the first post? That would make things a lot more streamlined. Buttons can be removed when author indicates pledges have been received.

Along the same lines, I’ve been thinking of adding a field in the plugin archive tables for a PayPal button, that way author’s get another focused line of support and incentive to update the tables with viable plugins. Anyone have feelings about that or see any problems? Let me know here. Thanks. Already done.

Re: Plugin Requests

I would like to see Jakob’s ideas for a plugin that helps to customize the appearance of the admin panels get added as a request. Seems to have quite some relevance too.
