Re: Creating Plugins
You should make this post a sticky. I totally missed it the first time around, and it’s got some great information.

Re: Creating Plugins
I have the power! Now you’ll all be sorry…
I’ve stickied it. Hopefully no one has any objection (and if so, please let me know).

Re: Creating Plugins
I posted a Textpattern Plugin How To about 6 months ago and its consistently been one of the most popular on my site (for whatever thats worth). But it looks to be getting a bit out of date so I’ll have to look at posting an update.
Some of the most useful posts I’ve found are 2 having to do with Global Variables and Accessing Global Variables.
I also just posted a bookmarklet that I use to search the Textpattern Source Code.

Re: Creating Plugins
So I’ve been wanting to write some plugins but have found myself hitting hurdles in understanding how TXP works.
I know mary has posted plenty of resources that people have compiled together to help other txp’ers and I wanted to throw in something you guys might like. I knew that I had once seen a website for Wordpress that helped me a lot in understanding how it works and I finally found it. It uses an app called phpxref, so I figured we could throw TXP through it.
Check it out here
You can peruse each file and it’s source. From the source you can lookup any function and see where else it’s called. Let me know if you guys find it useful and what you think of it. I know there’s no standard documentation procedure in TXP but PHPdoc is something I wonder if you guys considered, because it would also really help in understanding what each function does.
Update: Finally got around to putting up the files for TXP 4.0.3 and moved the location of the site to here

Re: Creating Plugins
There has been a modification, according to Dean, in the 4.0.1 release. Added article.edit.own.published status, that isn’t included in your list of permission level. I don’t really know what it means and what roles have that power, but it worths explore it. :)

Re: Creating Plugins
Could someone post explanations to the items as some of them are a bit vague.
Such as which line to change to give the Managing Editor privileges to add/remove authors and/or grant and restrict privileges?
