On another note, how many of you are still using PHP4? I was wondering if I can remove PHP4 support by moving everyting to PHP5 OO?
I run sites on one server that still uses PHP4, but most of my sites, including both that use glz_cf, run on a more professional setup that supports PHP5. I vote for removing PHP4 support.

Re: glz_custom_fields
I use PHP5 in all my sites, but I found that a lot of servers still use PHP4.

Re: glz_custom_fields
Can you change the height of custom field textareas on the write tab? I found where I think the size is specified in the plugin code (css selector #add_edit_custom_field p textarea), but for some reason I can’t update the code. When I click Save, I get a white browser screen and my changes aren’t saved.
EDIT: Ok, I just realized I can do all my styling through the textpattern.css file, sorry for the noob spam.

Re: glz_custom_fields
PHP 5 alone is fine by me.
BTW, I’m really happy with this plugin. It’s made things so much simpler for me and I’ve learned a lot about how TXP works as a result. Thanks One Zillion!
- One more small suggestion. :) A TimePicker akin to the DatePicker. There are a few jQuery ones hanging around the webs. If that is too specialized an addition then I wonder how I might plug that in myself… hmmm
- Ok one large suggestion too. Maybe too intense but if there was a routine that would update all modified values per custom field then one could change: bugz to bugs and all articles assigned that value would have that custom fields column updated. Would make for a nice addition to a maintenance screen?

Re: glz_custom_fields
Sorry if this has been covered before but as this thread is now 60+ replies long I can’t find reference to it…
Is there a way to make the textarea custom fields use textile markup (same as you can do for the excerpt field)?
Thanks,
Phil

I had to do this too, on a project I’m currently working on. My solution was to use upm_textile in the template, where the custom field is displayed:
<txp:upm_textile><txp:custom_field name="my_textarea"/></txp:upm_textile>Offline

Re: glz_custom_fields
The drawback of this method is that there is no switch you can toggle in the back-end when you want no Textile parsing.

Thanks John, that method will work great for me. I don’t need an on/off toggle in this instance as the textbox in question would only ever contain textile markup anyway.
Cheers,

Re: glz_custom_fields
Hmm, on testing it seems upm_textile plugin is not suitable for my needs, can’t get it to format links within the textarea for some reason – neither raw html nor textile links parse properly.

Re: glz_custom_fields
Oh my. I’m having the same problem— I didn’t notice before because I didn’t have any links in the text I was testing. I shall report this on the upm_textile thread.

Re: glz_custom_fields
Problem solved: Add the attributed escape="" to your custom field tag. Hope this helps!
