Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
i wanted to try upm_date_archive with 4.0.3. according to textpattern.org, this plugin is abandoned since mary stopped working on textpattern related stuff. i tried to install the plugin one can download from here according to this post, but i got an error after pasting the code in the plugin textarea. maybe it’s because the plugin text isn’t in this ominous raw format. can anybody help?
here’s the error i got:
<code>Notice: unserialize(): Error at offset 0 of 10 bytes in /Users/oliver/Sites/mainstream/www/mainstream/textpattern/include/txp_plugin.php on line 155</code>

I also received an error when trying to compile the source mary left. I would love it if someone could pick this up.

Try this version:
upm_date_archive v0.1.6
http://utterplush.com/download/txp/upm_date_archive.php
The upm_date_menu seems to work ok, but not the upm_date_archive. I didn’t play around with it long though.. give it a try.
I’m on TXP 4.0.3 btw.

Great plugin. But seems to have a minor bug. If in between months there are no articles, the month still show when i use [insert_empty_months=“no”] .
But it’s not a show stopper bug so it’s fine with me.

Hmm. I’ll look into it. I may need some details from you (your timezone, etc), but first I’ll do a preliminary check.

Try something like few articles in consecutive months in 2005, then jun2005-feb2006 no articles. mar2006 and apr2006 some articles. You will see that the 2005 June-Dec still show even tho there are no articles published for those months.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Hi,
I manage to fix this. The error was rather subtle. Look a function upm_date_menu (towards the end).
if ($insert_empty_months = ‘yes’ and $working_month < 12)
change to
if ($insert_empty_months == ‘yes’ and $working_month < 12)
Just a missing “=”. :)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
I’ve got <txp:upm_date_menu insert_empty_months="no" link_to="article" year_format="" month_format="%B %Y" sort="the_year desc, the_month desc" break="li" class="bullit" /> and it’s working great.
But i guess the ‘break’ attribute isn’t supported. Is it possible to replace the <dd> tags that the months are wraped in with <li> ?
Yes, I have tried turning it off and on.

Read the plugin help for what attributes are supported. That’s correct, “break” is not one of them.
Is it possible to replace the
<dd>tags that the months are wraped in with<li>?
Nope. It wasn’t meant to be a highly configurable plugin, just basic. There are any number of ways the year/month list could be marked up, so when I wrote the plugin I decided to just use arbitrary tags to keep it simple (to create and use). I’m open to suggestions on how to make this confgurable (but it needs to remain uncomplicated).

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Yep, I noticed that “break” was conspicuously missing.
I actually find the plugin very powerful and great. Unfortounately, all the other lists on my sidebars have bullets (I use a custom image), so my archives list doesn’t match when I use upm_date_archive. Now that I’m thinking about it, though, I can probably get what I want with article_custom and some conditionals . . .

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Oh, are you talking about the article list itself, and not the menu? ‘cuz that can use unordered lists and headings (the upm_date_archive tag, “smart” rather than “full” mode).

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
No . . i ‘m using upm_date_menu. It’s live on my site right now . . . you can tell ‘cause it’s the only sidebar list without bullets.
