Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download

I agree – at least if I am thinking what you are.

Correct me if I’m wrong – wasn’t asv_pluginfeed a start towards this?

But it didn’t seem to gain much traction…. maybe it was the wrong approach? Or maybe it does something different from what you meant? (I admit I might be totally clueless ;-P)

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download

Hey Gocom, this plugin’s ace. I’m using it on my (slightly) revamped home site, which I should be ready to unleash in the next week or so.

Got a couple of minor issues with the plugin though:

  1. I get Notice: Undefined index: 3 on line 71 because some of my plugins are of the recent ‘Type 3: Admin side’
  2. Could you possibly add $plugin['order'] to the plugin output and add a "Recommended load order: N" to the plugin header?

I add item (2) when exporting from the plugin composer so anyone who upgrades from an old version of a plugin can see if the author has changed the recommended priority. Upgrading a plugin won’t alter the load order of course, but it’s a visual clue that the user should check the load order they have already.

Thanks man. This plugin is going to save me heaps of admin hassle when I move my site to TXP.

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download

Muchos speedius :-) Nice improvements, thanks. The combined SQL statement makes a big difference on the slow arse MySQL 4 in use on my hoster.

Installed and live on my site. One thing: recommended load order: 1???!!! Really? ;-)

That plugin is mass-murderer ;) It wants to kill, die and exit from the scene before others wake up.

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download

Again new version released. Comes with a tiny bug fix. Version 0.5.2 changelog:

  • Fixed: added missing comma (,) to the install script.

Bug only effected new rah_plugin_download installs, not updates. Sorry for that accidently deleted comma.
