Textpattern Support Forum

candyman, I’ve had a few ideas about this. I’m considering adding two or three new attributes to expand the plugin’s scope:

• page_files (boolean) — if true, look for css/js files with the same name as the current page (template)
• section_files (boolean) — if true, look for css/js files with the same name as the current section

and maybe even:

• category_files (boolean) — if true, look for css/js files with the same name as the current article categories

The plugin would do a file_exists() check in the default css and js directories (defaults as set in the plugin prefs), then output <link /> elements for existing files.

Is that the kind of thing you were thinking of?

Version 0.2 released

New features:

• per-page and/or per-section file loading
• use soo_required_files as a container tag containing additional files/forms to load
• use the above in combination with per-article loading

Docs and downloads

Correct: only section.css and/or section.js (where “section” is the section name). However, if you wanted to load multiple files and/or forms for one section and that section shares a page with other sections you could do something like this:

<txp:soo_required_files>
	<txp:if_section name="this_section">
		this_file.js, that_file.js, this_form
	</txp:if_section>
</txp:soo_required_files>

Tag contents get loaded first, then per-page files, per-section files, finally per-article files/forms.

I have installed the soo_plugin_pref. But I have no access to the preferences, because there is no Options link showing up in the plugin list. I have never seen such an Option link there. What I have done wrong? If someone could give me a cue, I would be thankful.

Version 0.2.2 now available.

Tag contents can now include other Txp tags, allowing e.g. Txp conditional tags for further automation options.

So you can add files to the soo_required_files loading queue based on category, custom fields, etc.
