I recommend

Hello,

The plugin works as expected.

Before detailed attribution information is displayed in the license text, you have to enable the Extended License Text Block option. I think this is very clearly stated in the help text under the Creator Attribution Name format selection box.

I would appreciate it if you had posted your question in the forums before writing a review in order to confirm that this is an actual issue of the plugin.

Now, not only you have added a very bad rating for a reason that is 100% invalid, but you are also confusing potential new users with this false information and I’m not happy at all about it.

I would appreciate it if you updated the rating and edited your review. The plugin works as expected and this review contains false information.

Thank you in advance for taking care of this problem.

Kind Regards,
George

I know, nevertheless is no version of the author’s name does not appear. Only ” Copyright ? 2015 – All Rights Reserved”

Sorry, but the plug-in to me just does not work.

I’m sorry to say that you have made some invalid assumptions about the license text and the attribution in general.

You’ve been talking about the ‘All Rights Reserved’ statement all this time. This statement is not a license. It does not support republishing of the work, hence the template is intentionally left as simple as possible. Write whatever you like or filter the template programmatically and add a fixed statement according to your needs and rights.

The extended license information is there for statements that permit re-publishing of the work. The ARR statement is there just as an extra addition for completeness.

This plugin is about Creative Commons. The Creative Commons templates are complete according to the official license texts. The extended licensing information works as expected.

I’d appreciate it if you updated this review and rating, since you are judging a plugin about Creative Commons licenses by its All Right Reserved statement template! The plugin works as expected.

Feel free to use the forums for your support requests. Please do not use the review system for this purpose.

Kind Regards,
George

By the way, what would be a suitable template for an All Rights Reserved statement? What attribution text did you expect to see? There is no default way to do it like it happens with CC licenses. Hence the simple template. Nevertheless, I’m open to any ideas about it.

Looking forward to your reply and your review update.

You have rated a plugin about Creative Commons licenses with 1-star because the supplementary ‘All Rights Reserved’ statement does not follow the extended text template of the Creative Commons licenses, which you have interpreted as ‘the plugin does not work’. Well, this is by design, because, to my knowledge, there is no default way to express attribution of a Work using the ARR statement. Nothing more than ‘Copyright 1990 All Rights Reserved’ is required. Even this statement is not necessary as it is implied, if it does not exist in the document. But, as I’ve mentioned earlier, it just exists for completeness. It’s not a feature.

This plugin is not about All Rights Reserved. You do not even need a plugin for this. You can append the statement at the end of each post with 5 lines of code!

I keep wondering what kind of attribution text you expected to see. I’m interested in the exact phrasing you would consider as ‘the expected behavior of the plugin’.

This is clearly an invalid review that is based on invalid assumptions. I’d highly recommend posting your questions in the forums in order to confirm that the potential issue is actually an issue of the plugin before writing reviews that can mislead new users. I find this kind of reviews unacceptable and I’m not happy at all when I see one.

I rewrote review. I’m sorry! Ceasefire, please ??

In the settings is a option “All rights reserved.” (as one of the many). From this I concluded that plug-in is able to also write:

“Copyright ? 2015 [Firstname] [LastName]. All rights reserved. [link to terms of use]“

That’s usual formulation.

To explain: I was looking for a solution for the websites, where various authors publish articles under different licenses (various version CC and ARR).

Once again I apologize for the misunderstanding. Good bye!

Jiri,

Thank you for updating the review. I highly appreciate it.

I also apologize for getting nervous about it.

Now, back to your support request.

“Copyright ? 2015 [Firstname] [LastName]. All rights reserved. [link to terms of use]”

That’s usual formulation.

To explain: I was looking for a solution for the websites, where various authors publish articles under different licenses (various version CC and ARR).

I see and I fully understand the need.

The plugin’s main focus is Creative Commons licenses, but it can also support custom licenses or clauses like ARR. Internally, the plugin uses two templates (short/long) for the displayed text. Currently, due to lack of any official guidelines, both the short and long ARR templates are the same:

Copyright © #year# - All Rights Reserved

Of course, I am open to ideas about improving this and what you have written above is a good idea for improvement.

I’ll consider changing the long ARR template according to your suggestion. It still lacks a reference to the Work, which makes it a little different than the CC long template, but it is certainly an improvement over the current long ARR template.

Apart from this, it is very easy to customize those templates by adding some code in the theme’s functions.php file. I’ll try to post some sample code about how to do it at some later time.

Again, thanks for updating your review and for the useful feedback in your last post.

Kind Regards,
George

OK here is some sample code that can be used to customize the ARR long template and also the template that is used for the ARR extra permissions clause according to your suggestions above:

function bccl_custom_arr_long_template() {
    // Supports: #work#, #creator#, #license#, #year# variables
    return 'Copyright & copy; #year# #creator#. All Rights Reserved.';
}
add_filter( 'bccl_license_text_long_template_arr', 'bccl_custom_arr_long_template' );

function bccl_custom_arr_extra_perms_template() {
    // Supports: #page# (hyperlink) variable
    return '<br /> For more information, please visit our #page#.';
}
add_filter( 'bccl_extra_permissions_template_arr', 'bccl_custom_arr_extra_perms_template' );

This code should be inserted in the theme’s functions.php file or in a custom plugin. If you need more help about how to do it, please feel free to post your questions.

I’ll also add this sample code in the description page as an example of customization. I’ll also consider changing the default ARR long template of the plugin, but this needs some more thought, because there is no official template.

Hope this helps.

Kind Regards,
George

Update: In the code snippet above, & copy; should be written without a space after the & symbol. I’ve added a space in the snippet so that it does not get converted to ? by the www.ads-software.com forum post parser.

Thanks!
