Default status of new article to pending
Is there any way in txp 4.4.1 to set the default article status of a newly created article to “pending” without having to use
upm_savenew?
The site i am working on has a lot of admin theme work going, and upm_savenew would probably cause trouble there.
Thanx for a hint.

$('input[id="status-3"]').attr('checked', true);

Re: Default status of new article to pending
You might put it inside rss_admin_show_adv_opts’ code.

I wouldn’t put it there since that plugin interferes with Txp’s twisty remembering action in 4.2.0 and higher. I’d create a plugin like this:
if (@txpinterface=='admin') {
register_callback ('jay_default_status', 'article_ui', 'status');
}
function jay_default_status($evt, $stp, $data, $rs) {
return $data. <<<EOJS
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function() {
jQuery('input[id="status-3"]').prop('checked', true);
});
</script>
EOJS;
}(untested, but something like that)

Yes, rss_admin_show_adv_opts is orphaned.
Thanx Stef, will follow your suggestion right away.
EDIT: Works. (of course) Much appreciated, Stef!

Yep, sorry. Mine doesn’t contain any original code anymore :)
If you’re using bot_wtc you could paste this in the javascript section:
<script type="text/javascript">
$('input[id="status-3"]').attr('checked', true);

Re: Default status of new article to pending
Uli i followed Stefs suggestion. Just the least additional code. Thank you in any case!

Ha. It’s getting further. If i use your way, Stef, then any time i edit an already existing live article i will have to manually reset it’s status to live as well.
I guess i will have to get into database calls for the further use of that new plugin :)
Wish me luck.

Ah yeah. Bit of cleverness required. Again untested:
if (@txpinterface=='admin') {
register_callback ('jay_default_status', 'article_ui', 'status');
}
function jay_default_status($evt, $stp, $data, $rs) {
global $step;
$js = '';
if (in_array($step, array('', 'create'))) {
$js = <<<EOJS
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function() {
jQuery('input[id="status-3"]').prop('checked', true);
});
</script>
EOJS;
}
return $data.$js;
}Essentially we’re just checking to see if there’s no step (clicked on Write tab) or if someone is creating a new article and only adding the JS in that sitution. Might have missed one or two steps so you can add to the array if you like as testing dictates.

Re: Default status of new article to pending
Awesome. Didn’t know of step “create”. Apparently it is not in the core callback list on the wiki and my own knowledge is pretty limited.
