Sillyness, werd

As for the preview on the manage page that is in the pipeline for the next release.

Also, did you read the instructions on the CJD Notepad page? At the bottom there are installation instructions.

Thanks, Chris!

I’ve been using the beta so far and never had a problem — except for what was known — so I’m sure this one will be great.

Okay…one more small thing. I wish I could preview my note without clicking edit or clicking convert to draft. Maybe something that I could click to preview it or something using some fancy javascript and stuff?

How about using AJAX to expand the notes in the ‘Manage’ section and having a ‘View’ button to trigger it?

Good stuff! It even has ‘Convert to Draft’, hah!

It just shows how much potential Wordpress has; I can foresee the Wordpress developers implementing some plugins into the core of Wordpress in the future.

Chris, I can definitely see your new plugin being incorporated into the next version of Wordpress. :-)

Yeah, so I was dumb… Upload the whole notepad folder and it works fine. :)
Sorry about that.

Okay…so do I upload the whole Notepad dir to /plugins? or just the files in Notepad? I know…I am dense.

But when I just upload the files, it does not work. It says it is looking for a folder called notepad inside my plugins folder. I dunno… I will mess around with it more. I am sure it is just my own dang fault.

Just making it very short and efficient: Thanks!

Hey thanks. I will see how quickly I can get an update out that has a preview on the management screen, since there are a few people who are looking for that.

I did, but I was dumb and rushed to install it like I do every other plugin not realizing it should be in its notepad folder (eventhough it is in the instructions to upload everything in the notepad folder). Great plugin. I will have a small note on my blog about it tomorrow morning as kudos to you. :)

*bows to your greatness*

I’ve been wanting a plugin like this since I first started using WP. Thanks a ton for releasing it :)

I seem to get some error messages when I go to the notepad page. I’m on WP1.6a:

Warning: main(/home/binarybo/wp-config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/binarybo/public_html/wp-content/plugins/edit-note.php on line 2

Warning: main(): Failed opening ‘/home/binarybo/wp-config.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/binarybo/public_html/wp-content/plugins/edit-note.php on line 2

VERY useful, however it doesnt work on a blog where the WP files are in a subdirectory, without manually editing the code.
My WP stuff is within a folder on my server but the actual site is outside of that. Does that make sense? My blog address is different to my wordpress address.

changing get_settings(‘home’) to get_settings(‘siteurl’) on lines 81, 97, 106 and 114 seem to fix that. Strangely though, the form action on line 126 is already set as that but doesnt seem to work unless I manually ad in the subdirectory so in my case its ; action=”/wp13/wp-content/plugins/notepad/edit-note.php”

I think it is more likely due to the /public_html/ in your path. I need to do some testing to fix it though.

I know I’ve seen this feature somewhere and it kinda stuck. Does pMachine have this notepad feature? Now I have it, I can write more comprehensible entries.

Chris, I solved most of my other 1.6a > 1.5 downgrade problems, do you think the problem is due to that or due to the plugin?

Michael,

That is strange, it seems that the dir loop is not going back far enough to include wp-config. I will look into that for you.

Matthew,

Good point about siteurl over home. I have updated Notepad with those changes. And that is really freaky that it didn’t work in the form…

Hmmmm.. that is most distressing. I am not sure what is up with the bonsai then.

You mentioned making some changes to the “dir loop” to address problems with the main page being in a different directory than the Wordpress files. It seems my set-up is different, so the newest version wasn’t a fix for me. Here’s how I have my Wordpress set up…

www.home-url.com/index.php (blog home)
www.home-url.com/blog/ (Wordpress files)

I went through and fixed it for myself (added /blog to the address in 5 places in edit-note.php), but I’m curious to know if there’s a way to set it up so that other people don’t need to manually edit their code if their set-up is similar.

I’ve got everything set-up and working for myself, just thought you would like to know this little glitch.

mine has public_html in the path and is fine.

Nice plugin but two litte bugs.

First one is when accessing:

/wp-admin/post.php?page=notepad/cjd_notepad.php

There is a script error in IE:

Line 553

Error: document.note.title is null or not an object

Line: 630

Error: Object required

And when clicking CJD Notepad on plugins page it takes me to my web site instead of your, so it things my site is the plugins home page.

Would be nice if you could fix.

Thanks a lot,
 Will

I like the cjd_note plugin. I install it and it works fine at admin account. Unfortunately my blog is multi-user, and when I login as an user (level: author), I can not find this notepad at top menu Write. is there anyway to fix it so my user can use it too? thanks alot, Franky.
