Had a mail session with polkin. Works with Widgets on Pages.

For those of you who want to put the Quick Post Widget on a page, here is a step-by-step mini-guide:

– Download the ‘Widgets on Pages’ plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/widgets-on-pages/ (can be done from your site)
– Install the plugin (can be done form your site)
– Activate the plugin (can be done form your site)
– Go to the Appearance – Widgets menu
– On the right you see a ‘Widgets on Pages 1’ box
– Drag the Quick Post Widget from the left to the ‘Widgets on Pages 1’ box on the right
– Optionally configure the Quick Post Widget in the ‘Widgets on Pages 1’ box
– Create a dedicated page and put in the page body only the shortcode [widgets_on_pages]
– Publish the page
– Optionally tune the appearance by changing some styles in the Quick Post Widget admin panel in the ‘Widgets on Pages 1’ box
(for instance you may want to put ‘width: 200px’ in the ‘Captcha input’ and ‘Captcha image’ fields unders styles.

As said, the are several other plugins to put a widget on a page.

Good luck,

We had a mail-session and it turned out to be a problem with the permissions on folders.

This weekend I tried two plugins to put a widget on a page:

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/widgets-on-pages/

and

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/page-blocks/

They both work very well together with the Quick Post Widget. As soon as I have figured out how to use a shortcode in a widget to put itself on a page with a shortcode, without the use of a separate plugin, I will build an option for that.

For now, try for instance Widgets on Pages. Does the trick!

I just installed multisite and buddypress on one of my testsites and experience no problems using the tinybrowser.
Could you be a bit more specific? You say it doesn’t work. Do you mean that:
– tinybrowser doesn’t display at all?
– tinybrowser throws errors?
– uploading doesn’t work?
– …
– …

Did you try a different browser?
Do you have sessions enabled (you should)?
Does the blogs.dir directory have sufficient permissions?

Feel free to mail me, it’s a lot easier than using the forum. You can find the mail-address on line 12 of the quick-post-widget.php file.

I was able to help some others by logging into their site and do some debugging. If you trust me on that, please create an account for me and mail me the name and password.

By the way, I think that when a certain part of a plugin doesn’t work in a specific situation, it doesn’t mean the plugin is broken…

Thanks for your kind words.
The next version will have custom fields (at last) but it isn’t finished yet. In a couple of weeks I will upload it.

Please let me know if everything is OK now.

Had some mail contact and testing with Jollence. Turned out to be a small misunderstanding.
Only profiles Author, Editor and Admin for registered users can post.

You can find it in on line 12 of the quick-post-widget.php file.

@jollence
Could you post the link to your site and perhaps create a temporary account for me (please mail it, don’t post).

The next version will have custom fields. They are working now but I’m still working on some other issues before I can release this new version.

You’re welcome! Glad everything is OK now.
I seem to be unable to update this topic to resolved. Could you close it please?

There is another trhread about this.
On your site I can see you make use of the CollabPress plugin.
The CollabPress plugin uses the jQuery-UI script and stylesheet from Google CDN. The Quick Post Widget uses the jQuery-UI shipped with WordPress. Obviously these two cannot coexist with each other.
I don’t know why CollabPress doesn’t use the WordPress jQuery-UI but you can avoid conflicts by changing one line of code in the quick-post-widget.php file.

Change:

wp_enqueue_script('quick-post-script', $plugin_url . 'js/qpw.js', array('jquery','jquery-ui-dialog'));

to:

wp_enqueue_script('quick-post-script', $plugin_url . 'js/qpw.js', array('jquery'));

Worked for me (but the Quick Post Widget is now white instead of black because the jQuery-UI stylesheet from Google CDN is used).

Thanks for the reply.
Considering the FCKEditor plugin: this plugin updates all user profiles by disabling the WYSIWYG editor.
But…, the Quick Post Widget also uses this information to enable or disable visual editing on a user level.

If however you want visual editing for everyone in the Quick Post Widget you can comment or delete two lines of code:

if ( $guest_info->rich_editing == 'true' )
for anonymous submissions

and

if ( $current_user->rich_editing == 'true' )
for registered users

By commenting or deleting these lines the FCKEditor plugin can be activated and used while the Quick Post Widget does offer visual editing.

Today I uploaded version 1.7.3 which has the option to include or exclude certain categories, as well as defining a default category. If only one category is permitted and the default category is that one category and the option to create a new category is disabled, the complete category section hides itself.

Today I uploaded version 1.7.3 which has a fix for the 301 errors.
