According to the documentation you link to Julián, wet_quicklink only works for 4.2.0+.

Not really I’m afraid Julián. My PHP knowledge is such that I can read the code and understand what it is doing to the point where I can probably modify existing stuff to do what I want but adding or creating new stuff is mostly beyond me. Having said I’m going to have to learn PHP because I’m looking at a completely new plugin to do the same kind of thing but installing the variables as “preferences” so that I have things like “selects” and “radio buttons” available to me but don’t hold your breath. It will take a while. ;)

Why are you trying to combine them?

Hi Adi
Thanks for this update. With the previous version I’ve successfully edited the adi_variables form to reorganise/group the variables in the admin view but now if I make any edits directly in the form, the admin view breaks. If you need more info please let me know.

Version 0.3.1 available, which fixes the “manually edited adi_variables form” scenario. Thanks to woof for testing the fix.

Hi Adi et all.

Here is a mod to v0.3.1 that makes adi_variables to update the “lastmod” preference when a variable is added/modified/deleted.
This mod makes adi_variables play nice with aks_cache, in the sense that, with this mod, the “Reset cache if site was updated” will be triggered (when visiting a page in front end) if you added/modified/deleted a variable.

           if ($step == 'update') {
		$new_name = trim(ps('new_var'));
		// validate new variable name
		if (strpos($new_name,' '))
			$message = 'spaces not allowed in variable name';
		if (strpos($new_name,'"') || strpos($new_name,"'"))
			$message = 'quotes not allowed in variable name';
		if (ps('ps_name')) // then other variables exist (i.e. this is not the first)
			if (array_key_exists($new_name,ps('ps_name')))
				$message = "$new_name already exists";
		// add new variable to form
		if ($message == '') {
			$new_form = adi_variables_form_update(ps('ps_name'),ps('ps_public'),$new_name,ps('new_value'),ps('new_public'));
			$ok = adi_variables_update(join("\n",$new_form));
			$ok ?
				$message = "updated" :
				$message = "update failed";
		}
                // MOD: update value for "lastmod" preference when a variable is successfully added/updated.
		if ($ok) {
			update_lastmod();
		}
                // END_MOD
	}
	if ($step == 'delete') {
		if (has_privs($admin_privs)) { // double check privileges because this operation uses GET VARS
			$new_form = adi_variables_form_delete($this_variable);
			$ok = adi_variables_update(join("\n",$new_form));
			$ok ?
				$message = "$this_variable deleted" :
				$message = "delete failed";
		}
		else
			$message = "insufficient privileges";
                // MOD: update value for "lastmod" preference when a variable is successfully deleted.
		if ($ok) {
			update_lastmod();
		}
                // END_MOD
