Re: wet_quickopen: Open recent (and not so recent) articles quickly
wet_quickopen v1.6 is ready for Textpattern 4.9. Due to changes in the core’s admin-side markup, it probably won’t support any prior Textpattern version.

Works fine and fast. One thing you do to improve: add a <label for=""> before the search field. Everyone benefits, and that makes the HTML valid. You can visually hide the label, making it only “visible” to AT tools (screen readers, etc)
<label for="wet_quickopen_search" class="txp-accessibility">Search recent articles</label>
<input id="wet_quickopen_search" type="search" ………>The .txp-accessibility class does the job of visually hiding the label

Thanks for the report, Phil. This issue has been fixed.

Re: wet_quickopen: Open recent (and not so recent) articles quickly
Good and nice thank you. This makes a recent articles block much more useful.
I am always amazed at the speed of search in the Textpattern admin side.
Next step, when you have some energy left, perhaps you can make the plugin CSP aware, following the steps Jakob outlined in this thread. (other example, smd_thumbnails).
PS – As this plugin is Textpattern 4.9 only, you don’t need the if{} else{}

Will do, thanks for the pointers.
Phew, lots have happened since I made a living from webdev. lmddgtfm.

DDG search string: MDN CSP (for things web, the MDN prefix followed by $search term always returns the Moz. Developer site for me. Same for Brave search)

This sentence is a subtle riddle which I fail to solve ;)
Yeah, maybe a little cryptic… I was talking about another if{}/else{} actually.
If you look a Jakobs example (bot_wtc.php) the code for loading the styles/scripts is called this way:
if (class_exists('\Textpattern\UI\Style')) {
echo Txp::get('\Textpattern\UI\Style')->setContent($styles);
} else {
echo '<style>' . $styles . '</style>';
}the first if{} detects Textpattern 4.9, then the else part is the “old fashioned” way for older versions of Textpattern. If the plugin only supports Textpattern 4.9, that detection switch is not needed.
–^–
Textpattern 4.9 has a builtin method to use a strictish, nonce based CSP, activated through config.php, sample here. When included, Textpattern send the appropriate CSP header and applies a nonce to all scripts and style blocks on the admin side. See also how conforming admin themes load their script and style resources, e.g. theme Hive.

Thanks for the guidance! It gave us wet_quickopen v1.7.0.

Re: wet_quickopen: Open recent (and not so recent) articles quickly
I was stupid enough to load the plugin without wet_peex and was rewarded with a series of error messages when using PHP 8.4. It would seem that the old way of passing an error message is deprecated in PHP 8.4. It doesn’t seem to be related to your plugin, rather to Textpattern’s error handling. I filed an issue to this effect.
With wet_peex it, of course, works just fine.

Works lovely on this (strict-)CSP protected site. Thank you.

Despite having seen the GH issue report and read your quoted post I of course forgot it all the moment I wanted to test the plugin and forgot to enable wet_peex… I’ll blame the weather gods.

Re: wet_quickopen: Open recent (and not so recent) articles quickly
Just a general thought: what do you / people in general think about also including the next/prev buttons, which were also dropped alongside “Recent articles” in the update to v4.9, in your plugin?
“My” plugin jcr_writenav_buttons (I just turned a code snippet by Oleg and the core code into a plugin) restores both of them for users who would still like them, but your “Recent articles” search box adds a meaningful improvement. I would happily drop jcr_writenav_buttons and point to your altogether much more useful implementation.
