Re: rah_wrach: select a section before writing an article
Just found this plugin and it looks perfect for a particular client. I attempted to install 0.4.0 on TXP 4.8.2 PHP 7.3 using the zip upload but got this… advice?

Re: rah_wrach: select a section before writing an article
This is an old plugin and the ids and classes on the back-end have changed since it was last updated. I’m not sure if this is the problem, but I would try to live without it.

Re: rah_wrach: select a section before writing an article
It is listed in the Plugins directory, so it is a working plugin in principle. Otherwise it should come out of the directory, I would think. The whole point of the new directory, if I remember, was to more easily show what plugins are actually relevant anymore, and that would seem to include working.
Maybe there needs to be a ‘staging’ area between the directory and anywhere else in space for plugins that are nearly usable (not quite cutting the mustard), but just need someone to tweak ‘em into compliance. Or at the very least a flag on plugins in the directory saying ‘non-compliant’, or something, with a link pointing to a possible description of the problem, such as a forum entry. Don’t know.

That’s happening to you at the install stage, right? That could have something to do with Jukka’s specific way of building plugins which doesn’t follow the same pattern as the Textpattern plugin template. He suggests installing using composer. Unfortunately, he stopped providing compiled txt installer files a while ago.
You can, however, compile his plugins into txt installers yourself for pasting into the install field using his MassPlugCompiler. That works when, for example, you can’t run composer on your online server but you have it running on your local computer/webserver.

Possibly. v0.4.0 on GitHub is txp 4.7+ and the backend hasn’t changed quite so much. They should be easy enough to edit in the plugin itself.

Strange…
I’m using this plugin within 4.x branches, even with the latest 4.8.4 version of Textpattern, without any problems.
