I have a generic HTML + PHP question that has been driving me crazy for the last few hours. I have a form on one on my plugins that uses an HTML form and upon hitting the submit button does some processing and updates a timestamp in one of my tables. Once the submit finishes it returns to the form ...

Thanks Garvin! that solved the issue.

I created a plugin and when installed and checking in the Configure Plugins section the name says 'Sample!' but the description from my lang file is still preserved.

When i go to install a new plugin through the Install a new event plugin everything looks correct and the name is correct. Where is ...

The second part of my question I have managed to get working. I am not correctly grabbing the right entries using fetchEntries by setting $serendipity['GET']['category'] to the category ids that I want. The first part on what the field id for the category is when the fetchEntries array is returned ...

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I have not been able to figure it out as of yet. What is the field id for categories that are associated with an entry?

I am doing further parsing on the entries array and it would be very useful to find this out. Obviously I can get the selected entries by ...

No, at this point I am not all that much concerned with the comments. Our scenario is we have a production server and a server that is used for testing and vetting ideas and potential entries. So once good entries are created on the testing machine the goal is to "somehow" get them onto the ...

Ran out of room with the initial post..

My issue with this is that I obviously can't be a straight insert into the other database because the primary keys on my entries may be different and overlap the entries on the other machine. If I removed the entry ids then I create a whole mess of how to ...

I am in the position where I need to share entries between two serendipity boxes. I need to be able to synchronize the data from one to the other. I have looked at a few options such as using the RSS syndicator and creating mysql dumps and parsing out the relevant insert statements but I am unsure ...

How do I go about giving a user permissions to view entries submitted by another user? I have set up two users for different purposes and both essentially have the same privileges.. they are not allowed to publish but can store an entry as draft. Unfortunately, right now from what I see when ...

Garvin,

No, when I publish an article it isn't displayed either. It just seemed weird to me because filtering through the entries in entryproperties i found other types of properties that I can successfully display using entries.tpl. For example I can display a custom field that I added and I just ...

I updated entries.tpl to include some of the extended properties for the entries in the RSS feed I am aggregating. But for some reason I am not having luck displaying this information. I have tried multiple things but to no avail.

For example I added the following to entries.tpl ...

Thanks again..

Yeah I looked at the IP-based account login which was cool and would fit the bill if we were in a static environment.. unforunately we have to deal with DHCP :x, so the plugin would just end up creating way too many user accounts that weren't distinguishable. I will keep my eye out ...

Garvin,

Thanks.. Yes it is sort of like a suggest entry, but that is not the only part. We are using the RSS aggregator plugin to combine feeds that content contributors look at when looking for articles/entries to submit to the site. So the goal was to allow users access to view the compiled RSS ...

Garvin,

Thanks for the quick reply! You know.. sometimes I surprise myself with how easily my mind scatters. I have already used the extended properties plugin to add additional fields.. I don't know why that option just didn't click in my head!

Anyway, I guess my problem is trying to figure out ...

I was going through some of the code to modify it to my needs and have not been able to figure out where the actual event hooks reside. I was looking to edit the Edit entries display to include additional information and got stuck while looking through the functions_entries_admin.inc.php code ...
