• Hi Kreg !

    I found two issues which were strange for me

    1) Tweet box

    I don’t understand the use of TweetBox with out any submit button or API integration which is at ‘/wp-admin/admin.php?page=dk_speakup_edit’ page

    2) How the option ‘Allow signers to edit message’ is usable? I understand the purpose. But I didn’t find it as useful as what I thought . I don’t know if I am missing something

    Thanks !

    Twitter Message box:
    This lets you provide a pre-written tweet for your users to submit to Twitter. After you sign the public petition form, you’ll see buttons for Facebook and Twitter appear. If you click the Twitter button then the message field in the pop-up window will be pre-filled with whatever you entered in the Twitter Message box when creating the petition. You can see this working on my demo page.

    Allow signers to edit message:
    I plan on removing this option in a future release, so you can safely ignore it. The way it works is if the option is selected and a user edits the text in the petition message textarea, then their customized message will be sent rather than the one you provided for them. If the option isn’t checked, then the contents of the textarea are ignored and only your original message will be sent.

    I like the purpose and Idea behind the feature. I love to use the feature

    The way it works is if the option is selected and a user edits the text in the petition message textarea, then their customized message will be sent rather than the one you provided for them.

    I know how to use the feature. But what is confusing me is…I could not able to view the edited petitions or even Petitions column in signatures section or Downloaded copy of Petition signatures. If there is no column or way to see the petitions …how else the option is usable to me? That’s the thing I don’t understand

    I have singed the petition in demo link you given. I have singed editing the petition. Please check it if it is working in the way it meant. I hope you will understand what I mean

    Thanks for your kind help . Sorry if I am troubling you

    The Twitter box on the backend and the Twitter box on the front end are connected. If you enter text in the box on the backend when creating a petition, it will appear in the box on the front end when the petition is signed.

    Messages that users customize are not saved in the database. They are simply sent out in the email.

    I can see that the option was removed in the new version. I what’s wrong having the feature. It quite a useful option too .

    Thanks !

    Allowing the petition message to be customized causes a conflict with the email confirmation feature that I’m adding. For now, email confirmations are the higher priority. I may revisit making the petition messages customizable in the future if I can think of an elegant way to do so.
