Plugin Dev: Catching the upload as an event? Upload by any editor.

Sun, 21 Sep 2014 12:43:29 +0000

Hi all, for a new plugin I am devleoping I thought I could catch the image upload somehow. My plugin needs to collect all Blobids from all uploaded files this day, though, I am think about a mysql workaround now. Nevertheless, the question is quite interesting for developers and upcoming plugins.

Each editor uses a URL for the upload. So I could look for the matching request like that:

        function match_request($request)
       {
           return ($request=='sceditor-upload'); // or another editor URL
       }

Problem is that each plugin has another $request URL. So using my plugin I do not know what the editor URL is and cannot catch the upload "event".

Any idea how to overcome this?

Thanks,
Kai

email notifications on user profile change

Thu, 26 Sep 2013 07:14:38 +0000

The user receives an email notification only when there is a transition from "registered user" to "expert" (I'm doing my tests editing the user profile as an admin).

The user does not receive any email notification when there are other transitions (eg : from "expert" to "editor").

Why ?

Is it correct ?

Do you have the same behaviour ?

pause during process_event?

Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:19:30 +0000

I am working on a plugin that uses facebook logins to post information to a user's facebook wall. If the user has not already approved the publish_stream permission, I'd like to request it whenever they make a new post.

As far as I can tell, it doesn't look like process_event has a way to pause the processing of any of these events. Is there another way, either through process_event or through some sort of override that I could request said permission and wait for the user to respond before I continue?

Parameters for c_post event?

Sun, 28 Jul 2013 22:44:46 +0000

I can't seem to find a full list of parameters for any of the events for event modules. Is there a way to see everthing contained in c_post $params inside process_event?

Can't just echo or print_r, because it won't display anywhere in the page.

Please tell us event type that increased in V1.6.

Thu, 04 Jul 2013 08:05:52 +0000

Is there the event added to V1.6 other than "u_wall_post" and "u_wall_delete"?

Event module not listening?

Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:05:28 +0000

1. Have an event module registered through qa-plugin.php:

qa_register_plugin_module('event', 'qa-prevent-simultaneous-edits.php', 'qa_prevent_simultaneous_edits', 'Simultaneous Edits Preventer Module');

2. Have an event module with:

    class qa_prevent_simultaneous_edits {

        function process_event($event, $userid, $handle, $cookieid, $params) {
            if($event == "q_edit") {
                $userid = qa_get_logged_in_userid();
                qa_db_query_sub('INSERT INTO ^edit_preventer (postid, accessed, userid) VALUES ($, NOW(), $)', $params['postid'], $userid);
            }

        }

    }

3. Clicking on edit button of a question is not inserting anything in my db-table, nor do I get an error message!
