Re: Plugin Requests

Request: Anonymous file upload with description and category

Bounty: $20 from me, anyone else?

I need a plugin that would create a form to allow anonymous uploads to the files directory of a txp install. Ideally the form would have the following fields:
  1. browse/upload field for the file
  2. description field
  3. optional category field (with an attribute to allow a default category applied to all uploads from the form)

The form would upload the designated file to the files folder and post the description and category information to the txp database.

Re: Plugin Requests

similar to mrdale’s request

More flexible xhtml forms. ie a form which can either upload binary files and text fields or send them by email to an address specified.
User controlled form fields.
I recently had to create a page for a call. I would have loved it to be in my main site but as far as i could figure out txp was not able to handle it.
here is the <a href=“http://imca.neme.org/call2006”>form</a> I ended up configuring provided as an example.

Re: Plugin Requests

request 2:)
A conditional plugin which can be placed in the head tag of a template. Function: checks article id(s) and, if that article, a js/css/whatever script loads which is relevant to that article. something like <code><txp:if_article_id id=“20,43,58”><script type=“text/javascript” src=“myscript.js”></script></txp:if_article_id></code>

>I’m aware of the txp existing tag and a similar plugin but they do not work in the head of the article.

i’ve just tested ras_if_article_id and it works just fine in the head element of a single article page, txp 4.0.3 rev. 1310. What are you trying to achieve?

Re: Plugin Requests

Robert and colak: yes, in the current stable version, in order to make use of it in the head of your page, you’d need to turn off comment auto-append and use the article tag to call a form that contains the plugin tag. Alex just recently checked in changes to svn (what will be 4.0.4) so that this will no longer be necessary. :)

Re: Plugin Requests

mrdale re #2 above,

How much customisation are you looking for in the upload form?

I mean, apart from the optional field, do you want to be able to use a TXP form to specify the layout (like the way the comment form can be customised) or are you happy with a fixed layout set out by the plugin author as long as it meets the requirements you posted above?

I’m kinda interested in taking this one on but that’s not for sure – yet.

Re: Plugin Requests

Re: Anon file upload.

I am willing to claim it on the following basis…

  • I’ll do it without a ransom/bounty but, as my family need to eat too, I will accept any donation the TXP community cares to make for its development.
  • Requirements as per mrdale’s first post for the initial version.
  • Possible extension to TXP form parsing for more custom layout for a later release.
  • Possible extension to emailing for a later release.
  • This doesn’t form a legal contract! I will attempt it, if what you get passes your evaluation, then feel free to donate or not, that’s up to you.

Re: Plugin Requests

Net-Carver> Great! I’ll crank up my paypal account, and thanks.

  • Since it is a pretty simple concept, I don’t need form custimization yet. CSS styling the elements will be fine, so an id for each of the pieces would be appreciated.
  • An email response to sender and admin would be really great. In fact It’d be nice to have in the first version.

Anyone else who could use this capability could add something too.

Re: Plugin Requests

Re Paypal. I know it is very popular out there but it <a href=“https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-approved-signup-countries-outside”>does not clear cypriot credit cards</a>. I would be willing to contribute but do offer alternative services.;)
