Improvement of Static Page plugin

Garvin am um :

Reinhard asked, if this change is backward-compatible.

The answer is, as mentioned in the posting: Yes. The old view is still available. Already created staticpages can be viewed/edited/created in both the old and the new view.

Backwards compatibility is always very important to me. :-)

Well, of course - if you have no forum account, feel free to comment here. The forums sadly are often spammed, and since phpBB does not have that good antispam methods like s9y has, we required user registration. Sorry for the inconvenience. :)

Did you try the "assign categories" event plugin? This allows you to bulk-assign categories to multiple entries?

I cannot also check on a seperate wiki page, my time is limited. I would like you to ask to discuss your ideas on the forums or here, and I (and the community) can comment on the ideas and eventually put them on the Wiki list (http://www.s9y.org/238.html).

Thanks, Garvin

In fact, the media library does handle PDF files, it should also insert a link to your entry when you call the media manager. So I believe there is more likely some sort of usage error or bug in your installation. For more help/support, please come to the forums where we can work this problem out.

I think it's a good idea about automatic link detection, but it comes with great problems: What with sites that temporarily are not available? If a link is down at one time, it must not neccessarily mean that it will be no longer valid at all. If you then remove the link, you can never get it back.

Another thing: The more entries you have, the longer the search will take. Many hosts have 30 second execution limits which would make the plugin fail all the time, as connecting to a single link can often take 3-4 seconds. Take 100 blog entries with 120 links - this will take ages, and also cause a lot of traffic.

Marcus, about entries via mail: We have the popfetcher and mail2s9y plugins for this a long time already. :-)

Entering tags could be difficult in the email, you need a specific format. However, the plugin could be enhanced with this of course. And you can set different categories already. mail2s9y is something else, you need procmail or qmail server access.
