In reply to: Anybody know when tdo mini forms problems will be resolvedIt won’t!

I used to use TDO Mini Forms a lot but to be honest it was always a bit buggy and futsy – but great considering the cost!
However, I’ve now switched to Gravity Forms which although a paid-for product, has been worth its weight in gold. The only thing GF doesn’t do yet is allow you to edit existing posts via a form. But I’m sure that’ll come.
Note, I’m nothing to do with TDO or Gravity Forms – just a normal WP developer
Just manually create a user with the minimum of permissions and then assign that user within the TDO Mini forms option.

In reply to: SVN: directory missingYeah, I’ve checked and I don’t have a media directory there either. One for trac?

In reply to: SVN: directory missingAh, gotcha! So will this error never go away? Surely if a directory is deprecated on the server, then it should be reflected in the local copy as well?
If only penance was always that easy!
Errrmmmm…it appears to have been me being a bit dense!!!
My colleague was testing comment notifications on a post that he had already submitted himself (so he was the author of the original post as well!) Clearly you don’t need to receive a notification on a comment left by yourself!
And then on the other site, an address wasn’t being added to the table because I wasn’t ticking the Notify tickbox underneath the comment form!!
So regardless of whether a commenter is logged in or not, it definitely seems to work as expected.
What a wally – really sorry about that.
I’ve just got so many automated notifications going backwards and forwards that its confusing me some what:
• onscreen notification when form submitted
• email to the moderator and submitter upon form submission
• email to the submitter upon form approval
• email to original submitter upon new comment approvalas well as your checkboxes to allow commenters to receive updates.
Oh and of course a whole load of Mailchimp alerts to various people based on changes in the category RSS feeds.
Multiply this over 7 subdomains and its no wonder I’m getting confused!
Right, I’m going to lie down….
Can I PM you or summat? I don’t want the web address to be spidered in search results etc.
Yes, the tables have been created in each site.
I’m not using Proper Network Activation because I’ve not network-activated the plugin – I activate it on an individual site basis as and when I need it.
Hi
It definitely looks like something unusual is happening.
Namely when any logged in user is leaving a comment, the comment seems to automatically get approved (which is srange to start off with), and the person who has left a comment doesn’t get added to the reloaded table and therefore receives no notifications.
This is happening on two totally separate, unrelated sites (both Multiuser setups) where we’re using this plugin.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
Yes, I’m in the multiuser environment.
Anyway, I’ll do some more testing and come back if there are still issues – it may be that the author of test post was indeed the same person as the test comment I was leaving 😉
I have voted! Thanks man!
Well cover me in egg and flour and bake me for 14 minutes. It’s worked!
global $post; $email_to = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Author Email', true); $_status = "Y"; .... $instance = new wp_subscribe_reloaded(); $instance->add_subscription($email_to, $_status, $post->ID);Now happily adding a new row to the subscribe_reloaded table! Also wrapped all my code in an IF statement to ensure a new notification message doesn’t keep getting sent if a post is then republished/updated again – that would annoy submitters!
Anyway, thanks for your assistance/comments! Seems to be fine now…
So, I’ve already written a function which sends an email (using the address in the custom field) to confirm that the submitters post is now published. I figured I could bolt on your suggestion to this function.
I also thought I could modify one of your own functions to take advantage of code further down your plugin and to keep it compatble with any plugin updates. The one I spotted was
add_subscription($_email, $_status, $_post_ID);So, I pasted your function into my themes functions.php and changed those variables to match ones I’m already calling in my own function (namely referencing the correct custom field and retrieving the post ID). Briefly these exra lines in my functions.php file are:
global $post; $email_to = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Author Email', true); ......... include 'http://<nameofdomain>/wp-content/plugins/subscribe-to-comments-reloaded/subscribe-to-comments-reloaded.php'; add_subscription($email_to, $_status, $post->ID);I thought that this would work, but depending on where I put thos last two lines (the include line and add_subscription, it either white-screens come publishing, or simply ignores that code. Mmy other custom function continues to work fine, so its definitely the monkey-business I’ve been doing with this!
This should work in principle though shuoldn’t it – over-riding one of your functions with my own values?
Any thoughts much appreciated!?!?!
Awesome thanks! As simple as that. I’ll post anything back once I’ve worked out how to do it.
Many thanks

In reply to: wp-cron causing excessive processesNo I’ve not gone to WP 3.1 yet, as the sites that were causing me grief are all using TDO Mini Forms and from what I understand, that plugin no longer works with 3.1. Grrrr….
However, on the other sites, I’m maintaining the installs via Subversion, so upgrading those shouldn’t be a problem, right?
