Quote1.02-
Fixed problem with replies.  Only allowed to save drafts of new topics (not replies).

Does this mean you *removed* the ability to save drafts with replies?  Actually, I'd prefer it to work with replies also.  Can you tell me how to manually add that back?  I haven't looked, but I assume it would just be a small change to Post.template.php?
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on June 24, 2008, 04:13:45 PM
I will add that functionality eventually... but at this time it would require a bit of work... most likely have to add columns to the drafts table.  Topic ID/ Message ID is not saved with the draft.  So if you loaded a draft that u saved originally as a reply, it would load up again as a new topic not a reply.

Don't worry I'll add it eventually.  :)

This is a cool mod Charles! I installed it by the package manager with the DS-Natural designed by DzinerStudio theme and it works great. No edits at all!

I will try it on the DarkBreak designed by DzinerStudio theme next and see what happens. EDIT: It worked with this theme also!

Hello,

Looks super!  This is just what I need when writing up outage notices and procs.

A draft management question:

If a member is deleted, what happens to his drafts?  Do they get purged?  How do I clear them out if the member is already deleted?

Grazie,

Cal
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on June 25, 2008, 01:22:50 AM
Ahh I hadn't thought about when users are deleted.  I will likely modify some additional sources files to handle this.  You should note that when you load a draft and then post it, it is deleted from the drafts table.  So you won't be able to load a draft and post it multiple times, if that is what you intended to do with outage notices.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Cal O'Shaw on June 25, 2008, 01:27:01 AM
Hello,

No, I'd continue to cut and paste.  What I like is that I can prepare all the text in advance, what steps will be performed, but hold it until I'm ready to announce.  And if I have to change dates I don't get that "last edit" line.

When I tried creating notices in an Admin Only area and moving them to Public I had to add a second post to bump it up, or do cut and paste.  You offer a much cleaner option.

Grazie!

Hi Charles,
just changed to the last version and there is one problem.  Images attached.

If I post using the "old" method (modify and post) it is ok.
But if I post using the new option "Post it" smiles are not shown.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on June 25, 2008, 11:13:05 PM
Thank you all for the kind words.  Also, thank you for the dutch translation.

About the smilies issue... When you post things using the Post it! link from your profile, the post is created in default topic and message options (and smileys disabled).  I could add additional columns to the drafts table further detailing information about the draft (various settings you have selected when saving the draft), and then use those when you use the Post it! link.  I will do this eventually, as it would make for a more complete experience when using the drafts feature.

Hello,

When the MOD is installed, what is the setting?  Is it off for everyone, on for everyone, on for Admin only?

I'd rather start with just Admins and another group being able to use it, and maybe later roll it out to everyone.  If it starts as "on" to everyone, I'll need to go to Maintenance Mode, install it, restrict it, and then leave Maintenance Mode.  And that involves giving notice, scheduling an outage, etc...

Grazie,

Cal

Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on June 26, 2008, 12:10:42 AM
There are no settings with this mod.  There is just a permission (save_drafts).  When you give users this permission, they can use the drafts feature.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Cal O'Shaw on June 26, 2008, 12:18:50 AM
Okay, but how do I give it, or withhold it?  Or does installing the MOD give it to everyone?  I'm sorry if I seem thick here, but that isn't clear.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on June 26, 2008, 12:20:27 AM
When a permission is added, no membergroups have it (except the admin, because admins can do everything by default).  You have to enable the permission for a membergroup for members in that membergroup to use whatever that permission allows.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Cal O'Shaw on June 26, 2008, 12:27:01 AM
Ah, so I go to Admin > Membergroups > Modify and click on a checkbox in that Membergroup's panel, yes?

If it's not a bother, maybe add a screenshot of that panel or a line in the MOD description saying how to enable for specific membergroups?

Grazie mille!

Post by: ilikeitalot on June 26, 2008, 12:28:22 AM
Thx for adding the reply capability.  This mod is amazing.  Lots of fun even just playing around with it lol.  Such a great yet basic feature should be built-in to SMF imo.

The smileysEnabled defaulting to 0 with the Post It! is um... annoying.  Is there an easy way to hardcode that to be 1?  If not, that's OK, I'll just disable the Post It! link.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on June 26, 2008, 12:34:45 AM
I will be adding lots columns to the drafts table that store all possible post settings that you had when you saved the draft.

@Cal O'Shaw

I'll make the save_drafts permission be in its own permission group called Drafts (so that it's easier to distinguish from other permissions).  I guess I could make a screen shot of where to enable it also.

Hey Charles,

This mod is so useful for us.
Great Mod. you have upgraded version to 1.04 , did we have to reinstall and install .  :-\

And if you have a automatic Timer which stores the composed message as draft for every 30 sec.

So in case of network problem or some power supply problem , our message will be saved as draft.

Hope this could be very useful.

May be once the post is done, let the draft be deleted.

And even need the stats on Profile page says how many draft they made totally so far and limitations for each draft.

If possible seperate link in stats page for admin to see all the drafts page and no of drafts used and pending so far for guest users.  ;)

Thanks & Regards,
Sudhakar, IT Acumens

Besides a lot of work on Mr. Hill's part, I would think you'd start chewing up bandwidth as every person composing a post or pm is sending sending and receiving every 30 seconds.  You may have ISP capacity issues.

Drafts are deleted when you post them.

QuoteAnd if you have a automatic Timer which stores the composed message as draft for every 30 sec.

This might be possible.  I will look into it.  I am currently in the process of moving, so I won't get much done for a couple days.

QuoteAnd even need the stats on Profile page says how many draft they made totally so far and limitations for each draft.
I could add a settings page for this mod (in the admin area) where you can set the maximum number of drafts any one user can have.  I doubt having stats on how many drafts users have in their profile would be useful.  Seems like that would just be useless bloat.

QuoteIf possible seperate link in stats page for admin to see all the drafts page and no of drafts used and pending so far for guest users.
Guests can't use the drafts feature btw.

Post by: Cal O'Shaw on June 27, 2008, 11:24:00 PM
I noticed with 1.04 that everyone who is authorised to save drafts now has the "Show Drafts" link in their profile.  But unless one clicks on the link, one doesn't know if one has any drafts pending.  So it would really be helpful if there was some indicator to remind the member they have drafts (a count might be nice, but any sort of an indicator would be nice).

For Admins, it might be nice to know how many drafts are pending, maybe even counts of who has them, but to be honest, since the smf_drafts table gets compacted along with the other tables, and you purge drafts when a member is deleted, well, we don't get such stats on PMs either and seem to do just fine...

I'm getting good feedback from my test group, so at the risk of sounding like a broken record... Grazie mille!

We have installed this on version 1.1.5 and then applied this to the packages and when we goto find the link for the blog, we are unable to find it at all showing up, is there are reason why this might not work on a fresh install, also we are using the default template as well. what could be causing these issues.

Although I don't feel up to trying to install this right now due to the number of mods installed I have, the likelihood of many manual edits being have to made, and the coming upgrades to 2.0 and 2.0 mod updates, I think this or some variation of user/moderator/admin rough drafts should be a base feature of 2.0 at all costs.

Cheers

Post by: Cal O'Shaw on June 30, 2008, 12:43:45 AM
Hi,

My test users really like the drafts feature (judging by the size of the file savings when I optimise the tables :) ).

Any chance the next release will include an indicator in member profiles when they have one or more drafts pending?  Whether the link is in bold, or a number (3), or number and max (3 of 10), or in the page header (You have 3 of a maximum 10 drafts pending), any are fine, just something to remind people they have drafts pending.

Admin info such as "xx drafts pending for yy members" is a "nice to have" but not really needed.  As long as members know they have drafts pending.

Grazie!

I changed my mind and installed this mod since it looked just so totally cool, and it is totally cool! Everything seems to be working great but I got this error in my log when I ran it through its paces. I think it happened when I posted the draft from my profile. I have many other mods installed including the topic description mod which it looks is causing this conflict and being bridged with Mambo through Orstio's bridge. Thank you very much for this great mod and any info on this would be great.

Ya you must have missed something in Post.php.  Check the install.xml file for the edits made to Post.php and make sure you have them all and in the right places.

@weightman...

It sounds like the topic description mod is causing a problem here.  If you could also post for me the part of your Post.template.php (default theme) that shows the input field for the topic description, I think I can add the necessary code to the drafts mod to make it work for those who are using the topic description mod.

Yes you will have to uninstall and then reinstall.  Don't worry, all the stuff in your database will be unchanged by the uninstall and reinstall.

Hey Charles,
You made this update so cool.

I have uninstalled and installed and now its working perfectly.

But i have two suggestions for you,

One - drafts_smf11x.zip - old & new file name or same. So i have to delete that package and reupload.
If i have some bugs in this update, then for time being i have to reupload the file and have to install it again , instead you could change the name of update.

Second - Updates : Additional post data now saved with drafts: blog categories, topic description.
Kindly Add Tags field also if possible.

And i have already asked to make the post saved every 2 minutes, and hope you have added it to your todo list.

Thanks for this Excellent Mod.

You should probably download it again.  I left one bit out related to topic description mod compatibility and I think I forgot to update the zip archive to 1.05 anyways.  1.06 is correct.  Sorry about that.

Just now done.
Anyhow, thank you for it Charles.
Will Delete and Reupload once.

Hey Charles,

Installed 1.06 - Went to profile and click on Post it button.

And it showed me this error.

Unknown column 'topicDescription' in 'field list'
File: /home/itacumen/public_html/forum/Sources/Profile.php
Line: 3712

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 1.1.5, while your database is at version 1.1.1. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.


Any suggestion.

Yea I see what the problem is.... I forgot to add something to the add_settings.php file.  Sigh.... this is what happens when I try to do stuff when I'm really tired :(

I'll update it to v1.07 with the corrections to add_settings.php.  One minute.

I've tried to make a poll and save it, but it only saved the post - that would be a nice addition to a future version of this mod.

Also, if you can (this might be a little too much, I don't know) but it would be neat to be able to save private messages as drafts as well. If you could work that into a future release that would be great, but if not, no biggie. :)

It's sounding like you didn't uninstall the previous version of the drafts mod when you installed v1.07.  Delete the older instance of template_showDrafts() in your Profile.template.php file.

The problem is resolved now. I did actually uninstall the previous version. At least I did automatically. But some stuff in the files you mentioned were somehow not automatically removed. I've done that manually now and installed the latest version. It is working ok.

Its mostly adding <br /> and its doing it when there are multiple things put in the post such as images and text. Its putting the code after each place there is a line break (or each place it "thinks" there should be one). It appears that part of the draft mod code may not be handling line breaks correctly so its trying to add the break in html format and the tags are showing up because html tags are not accepted in posts.

Also, when you use the character "&", it is adding this instead "&amp;"

I dont know that much about coding but it appears it thinks that whatever is being posted is in html format and it should treat it as such.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on August 14, 2008, 04:52:55 PM
Ok I just looked at the code around where the posting of drafts as new topics/replies from the Show Drafts page and seem to have come up with a solution for you.

Find in Sources/Post.php:
// sanitize and prepare for entry into the database
$msgOptions['body'] = addslashes($func['htmlspecialchars']($msgOptions['body'], ENT_QUOTES));
$msgOptions['subject'] = addslashes($func['htmlspecialchars']($msgOptions['subject'], ENT_QUOTES));

Note: the comment may be different

Replace with the following:
// sanitize and prepare for entry into the database
$bodyText = addslashes($func['htmlspecialchars']($msgOptions['body'], ENT_QUOTES));
$subject = addslashes($func['htmlspecialchars']($msgOptions['subject'], ENT_QUOTES));

And in the INSERT INTO database query AND the UPDATE database query after that... Replace $msgOptions['body'] with $bodyText... and... Replace $msgOptions['subject'] with $subject


Now in Sources/Profile.php....
Find:
// let's set some variables before we create the post
$posterOptions['id'] = $memID;

$msgOptions['body'] = $row['body'];
$msgOptions['subject'] = $row['subject'];

Replace with the following:
// let's set some variables before we create the post
$posterOptions['id'] = $memID;

$msgOptions['body'] = un_htmlspecialchars($row['body']);
$msgOptions['subject'] = un_htmlspecialchars($row['subject']);

That should do it.

Presently all my free time is going towards finishing v1.12 of Blog: Community.  About a month ago I did look at the code of SMF to get a rough estimate of how much of a pain supporting PMs would be..... It didn't look good...  I doubt I'll ever support PMs with drafts.  The only way I'd ever add PM support would be if someone paid me to do so.  Sorry :(

No need to apologise, truly.  This MOD is great for posts.  I've held off rolling it out to my general membership only because I was waiting to see what you decided about PMs and polls.  If you have the time to put the fix into the MOD I'm going to wait to uninstall the 1.07 version, install 1.08(?), and then announce it.

Thanks for all your hard work on this :).

no problem. I will just make sure and remind staff they need to keep a close eye on posts for a bit longer. I have attached both those files so you can look at the edits I made. I am always careful whenever I make edits however, that doesnt mean mistakes cant be made lol

Is it possible to make the ;sa=showDrafts -page viewable to everyone? For my site, that would be really useful. :D What changes do i have to make to the code for this to be possible?
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on August 23, 2008, 04:10:17 PM
Do you mean make a member's show drafts page viewable to other users?   Hmmm, because of how the profile page is structured in SMF, you would have to modify several parts of the Sources/Profile.php to affect the overall permission of a profile page.  Then there are a few things you'd have to edit in the show drafts page itself to make sure only the profile owner can see certain links.

I suggest you open up Sources/Profile.php and do searches for the word "draft".  This should show you all the bits of code in the file that have to do with drafts.  There are lots of comments.  Just remember that in the showDrafts function you HAVE TO prevent users who are guests, are not the profile owner, or are not allowed to save drafts from using the delete, modify, post drafts bit of that function.  Also you will want to make only the edit, delete, post links visible to the profile owner.

Yes! ^^ That's it. :) I'll take a look at the Sources/Profile.php then, ^^' The links and that, do i edit that too in Sources or is that in themes? :)

Also, if possible, could you tell how you made sa=showdrafts? I've been trying to create a new sa=x page in the profile viewable for other users for showing information from customfields without success. I of course do understand if you prefer not to explain since it's of topic but I've been trying to solve this for months so it would be greatly appreciated. A PM would be fine if you would like the topic free from of topic-talk. ^^

Thanks in advance.

Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on August 24, 2008, 12:02:26 AM
The edit, post, modify links for the show drafts page you will have to put flags on.  A flag is a condition that determines whether or not to display something (if then statement).

It took me a while to figure out how the profile pages worked too.  It's very different from the rest of SMF.  If you want to add a new page of your own... just find the place where the draft code is, and you should be able to figure out how it works.  It's all in the Profile sources folder.  The template function is just what you want to be displayed by the function you make in the Profile page.  HINT: whatever your new sub-action (sa) is... your template function and your new function in the source folder should use that subaction name.... template_subAction() and subAction($memID)

Hope that helps :)

Hello,

I've just had two of our moderators report that when they are working on a sticky topic and create a draft, when they post it the sticky attribute is lost.

Have you encountered this, or is this mayhap an attribute not currently captured?

I'm pretty sure that all those basic topic attributes were saved with drafts in v1.07.... I am unsure, though.  I'm going to revise this mod after I release Blog Community 2.0.1 Beta.

Both for the rapid reply as well as planning to look into this.  We're running on 1.07, btw.

Not to press in the slightest, but to give our moderators feedback, do you have any sort of time frame in mind (weeks or months works quite well)?  It's appreciated that you volunteer to do this sort of thing.

I just did a test save of a topic with the sticky this topic checkbox checked... then went to the show drafts page... went to modify and it was still checked.  Then I went back to the drafts page and posted the draft as a topic from there.  It was stickied.  So I guess it didn't need addressing :)

Went into a sticky topic and did the following (text of the post, used as a test progress):

test of 1.08.  Using REPLY to create a post. (done)  Then using save as draft. (done)  Then checking to see if topic is still sticky. (done)  Then going into draft and posting draft. (done)  Then checking if still sticky. (fail)

I understand that.  I did not do that.

-went to a sticky topic
-went to last post
-clicked "reply" button
-typed the test message as above, without the () results.
-clicked "save as draft"
-went to board index
-checked topic was still marked as sticky (yes)
-went to my profile
-clicked on "Show Drafts (1)"
-clicked on "Modify"
-edited the draft, adding in () result data.
-clicked on "post"
-went to board index
-checked topic was still marked as sticky (NO)

Do you get the same results with these steps?

Well, if I reply in a sticky topic and just hit post, the topic stays sticky.  If I save the reply as a draft, then finish it and post it, it makes the topic unsticky, requiring manual "make sticky".

I don't think that should happen.

Hi you have came with 1.0.8 Draft Version. Could  i know the 8 edits you have did so that i could manually upgrade the package with mod parser.

Hi Charles, I have tried to install 2.0.2 beta in my smf 1.1.6

Noted two error test failed fails.

11.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/Recent.php   Test failed
22.   Execute Modification   ./Themes/default/index.template.php   Test failed

Used the parser to manually check the files and found these simple errors,

In Default/Index.template.php file,

Find : <meta name="description" content="', $context['page_title'], '"

Present in my file as :    <meta name="description" content="', $context['page_title'], (!empty($context['description']) ? ' - '. $context['description'] : '') , '" />', empty($context['robot_no_index']) ? '' : '

So that gives me a issue.

In Source/Recent.php file,

Find : WHERE ml.ID_MSG = b.ID_LAST_MSG" .

Present in my file as : WHERE ml.ID_MSG = b.ID_LAST_MSG" . (!empty($modSettings['recycle_enable']) && $modSettings['recycle_board'] > 0 ? "

Find : WHERE b.ID_CAT IN (" . implode(', ', $_REQUEST['c']) . ")

Present in two lines : Line 237 & Line 1375 So conflict occurs

Give me a solution for the above errors.

I have attached the index.template file and recent file.

Kindly help me to modify it, i will install with errors and then replace the edited file charles.

Help me with the felblog conversion tool also.  :)


I have mistakenly posted in drafts mod instead of Charles Blog Mod.

Post by: Charles Hill on September 13, 2008, 12:58:37 PM
This is the drafts mod thread.... You are asking about the Blog Community mod.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: jkrlvgn on September 13, 2008, 02:38:11 PM
First off, Mr. Asudhakar, let me say that you've missed the topic (as pointed out by Mr. Hill).  This isn't the support thread for Blog Community.  The Blog Community support threads are:

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=244848.new#new (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=244848.new#new)
and
http://degreesofzero.com/index.php/board,6.0.html (http://degreesofzero.com/index.php/board,6.0.html)

so please, in the future, refer to the correct support thread to allow the correct answers to your questions.

Granted, I'm not the developer for this Simple Machines modification, but I have to say that I do use it, and had no trouble installing it.  I might add that I've got a fairly heavily modified forum, most of which were manual edits for things other than Blog Community, because they didn't seem to fit in well with eachother.  Most often, if you're looking for support, you want to go ahead and list what you've got, such as a COMPLETE list of installed modifications so that it can be determined where the problem lies.



As for your particular issue, it's actually not that hard of a problem to fix.  If you take a moment and open your eyes to what you're looking at, you'd see that you've already answered part of your first question.

Find : <meta name="description" content="', $context['page_title'], '"

Your file has:

<meta name="description" content="', $context['page_title'], (!empty($context['description']) ? ' - '. $context['description'] : '') , '" />', empty($context['robot_no_index']) ? '' : '

Well...all you're looking for is:

<meta name="description" content="', $context['page_title'],

That is what you want to change.  Right there.  The other stuff, obviously, stays where it is.  I know that it's not the easiest thing to do...you know, reading and comprehending, but that was one that was staring you in the face.  Try to take a few steps before you decide that you need someone to hold your hand for you.


The second error...well...it's obviously going to be the same as the first.

You found the string that needed to be found:

WHERE ml.ID_MSG = b.ID_LAST_MSG" . (!empty($modSettings['recycle_enable']) && $modSettings['recycle_board'] > 0 ? "

And you're changing the part that says:

WHERE ml.ID_MSG = b.ID_LAST_MSG" .

OMFG!  HOW DID THAT GET IN THERE?  It must have been hiding, you know, between the lines of text that you were looking at, but didn't recognize.

As for the last, if you pull up a copy of recent.php on my system, there's only one instance of that string.

Look for the rest of this:

$request = db_query("
SELECT b.ID_BOARD, b.numPosts
FROM {$db_prefix}boards AS b
WHERE b.ID_CAT IN (" . implode(', ', $_REQUEST['c']) . ")" . (!empty($modSettings['blogMode']) && !empty($modSettings['hideBlogPostsFromForumRecentPosts']) ? "
AND b.blog_board != 1" : '') . "
AND $user_info[query_see_board]", __FILE__, __LINE__);
$total_cat_posts = 0;
$boards = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($request))


In your file, you've got the same thing twice.  Change the first one, and see why you have a second one in there as well.  I doubt that it's there on purpose, as I don't have it on mine.

There you go.  Easy problems, easy fixes.  Requires a little thing called thought.

Just started seeing this error:

8: Undefined index: description
File: /home//public_html/Sources/Post.php

Line 1743 is part of the draft mod:

Quote// are we modifying a draft? weird huh?
      if (isset($_POST['draftID'])) {
         
         if ($context['is_draft_author']) {
            db_query("

               SET boardID = $topicOptions[board],
                  topicID = '$topicID',

               WHERE draftID = $draftID
                  AND memberID = $ID_MEMBER
               LIMIT 1", __FILE__, __LINE__);
               
            $context['draft_saved'] = true;

Not even sure why that is even in there because Topic Descriptions is not a default feature of 1.1.5 and I do not have the Topic Description mod installed either. Do I need to remove that line?
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on September 13, 2008, 07:33:35 PM
Ya you can remove that line... I kinda hastily made changes to this mod :(   I'll add flags to make sure variables are set before it tries to use them.  Also I'll figure out how to fix the issue of posting reply drafts to stickied topics (makes them unstickied apparently).

Hi you have came with 1.0.8 Draft Version. Could  i know the 8 edits you have did so that i could manually upgrade the package with mod parser.

Because when i try to uninstall 1.0.7 Draft, it show two error.

1.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/ManagePermissions.php   Test failed
5.   Execute Modification   ./Themes/default/Post.template.php   Test failed

That just means that you have other mods that have affected those files. Uninstall it using the package manager and then manually remove the code from those 2 files and the mod will be entirely uninstalled

If I uninstall the older version and then reinstall the newer version will it retain the data or will any drafts saved up to that point be deleted during the uninstall?
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on September 14, 2008, 11:21:42 PM
The install/uninstall only affects the files not any of the rows in your database tables.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: ddarrell on September 15, 2008, 08:32:41 PM
this is truly a nice, and needed Mod.

I installed with no problems and left it up a couple of days.
Yet I discovered one worisome aspect, and that is that the
only way to delete a draft is to post it, then delete the post.

I thought that some users might not figure this out, so
I un-installed it.

It would really be nice if you could alter it so that a user could
bring up his/her saved drafts, and have a way of deleting the
ones that are no longer relevant, without having to post-then-delete same.

Thank you for your excellent work!

Title: Re: Drafts

You can delete them.  From your Profile > Show Drafts page.  I think you're referring to the table that shows a brief summary of your drafts below the post box on the post page?

The mod installed without errors and works fine for me as admin. My members are reporting that when trying to save a draft they are getting the error 500. I understand this is a permission function.

I Checked all file and folders on my server and they are set to 755, no reason my members should be getting error 500.

Any thoughts?

Hi Mate :)
Excellent job with this mod!!

How or would it be possible, to have your draft be able to post in any topic?
Say I made the draft in the SMF 1.x.x support thread, then went over to the SMF 2.x.x thread and wanted to use it there. If I click on "Load Drafts" it would post it in the SMF 1.x.x thread instead of the SMF 2.x.x thread.

Anyway to change this?

Or to have some drafts stay to be repeatedly used over n over again.
Like here when you explain how to use the "Package Parser".
Instead of retyping it over n over again, you could have the "repeat draft/template" to continuosly use when you click "Load Drafts".
Just an idea ;)

Thank You in advance mate :)

After an attempt at installing a different mod, my Profile.php code became royally fouled up.

Now, I've got the profiles back, but I'm getting this error:

8: Undefined variable: drafts_counter
File: /forums/Sources/Profile.php
Line: 211


Line 211

$context['profile_areas']['info']['areas']['showDrafts'] = '<a style="white-space:nowrap;" href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $memID . ';sa=showDrafts">' . $txt['showDrafts'] . ' ' . $drafts_counter . '</a>';

And of course, the counter isn't there anymore - and I do have some drafts saved.

I manually reentered this mod's code in the Profile.php and have combed through this code until my eyes just about crossed. I don't even know exactly what I'm supposed to be looking for anyway. I'm thinking that the Profile.php file might be fine - maybe there is something in another file that controls this?

If you have time, would you mind looking at the attached and let me know what's wrong? I'm not in a huge rush since the mod does work everywhere else.

Thanks in advance!

Ah, nevermind. I switched over to SMF 2 Beta 4 and can't use this mod at all.

I am hoping when a stable version of 2 is released, the mod will be upgraded and can be installed there.

Charles, do you have any plans to make this available to SMF 2 users? Out of all the mods I had installed, this is one of the few that I've missed since the move.

I receive the following error when trying to add an attachment:

Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow.

Please consult your server administrator for more information.


Neither is the case.  No issues using attachments in the normal posting environment.

Hi Charles, i found the Zcommunity blog mod is been upgraded to 2.0.4.

Is there any chance for us to have an Update of Drafts mod with 2.0.4 Compatibility.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Charles Hill on January 24, 2009, 04:09:07 PM
I'm going to revise this mod to work with both SMF 1.1.x and SMF 2.0.  I don't know how long it will take, though.

Hello,

It's been awhile so I thought I'd ask if you've had the opportunity to look at fixing the "unsticky topic" problem and would be releasing a fix under 1.1.8.

Grazie,

I updated for my friend(Alpay) but it was when 2.0 Beta 4 wasn't released yet. So it shouldn't be compatible with RC1... And it wasn't totally compatible with 2.0, I didn't know anything about 2.0's coding.

If anyone does look at updating this for SMF 2.0 this would be great.

There's a little feature I'd like to see implemented to automatically save a draft of a post if you submit it and then it fails, perhaps because somebody else posted first, or you forgot to enter a title. Either way, it does give you a chance to resubmit but I've found some people close the window too quickly to realise, and thus lose their post. If the re-posting is successful the draft could be deleted, it just avoids the possibility of the post being lost if they don't re-post it.

I'd love to do this myself, but unfortunately I don't have the time to look after mods right now

Mr. Hill,

Do you think you might be looking into the 'unsticky topic' bug any time soon, or will it be after 2.0.0 goes Gold?  I know we plan on staying on 1.1.x for a few months after the 2.0.0 release, waiting for all the MODs to migrate (and those last shy bugs to be squashed with 2.0.1...)

Charles,

In another thread (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=316788.0), you said:  "The Drafts Mod does most of what you want.  Though there were a couple minor issues... and it doesn't have the full organizational abilities you describe."

Your comment above about minor issues and organizational abilities that your Drafts Mod might lack is what I'd like you to clarify if you will.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: CarpeDiem on June 13, 2009, 11:30:29 PM
I'm suggesting that SMF make drafts a normal part of the next release of SMF 2.1.

I've started a thread in the Feature Requests section at this link (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=317405.new#new) and if you want to see it as a regular part of SMF and not a Mod, please feel free to add your support!

REMEMBER:  If it's not a Mod, then there will no longer be a need to manually install and fiddle with inserting code hither and tither.  If it makes it into the next release, it should always be there for us and our website forums for the future forward (and it's our users about whom we should be concerned).

Please support!  Charles has done a great job, but he no longer has time and energy for this it seems (he's got other irons in the fire!).  He hasn't responded to anyone here since January (and it's now June).  I'll bet people are not even checking back in this thread since they're discouraged.  Have courage!

SUPPORT DRAFTS AS A REGULAR FEATURE OF SMF HERE (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=317405.new#new)!

Post by: Cal O'Shaw on July 22, 2009, 02:15:39 AM
Mr. Hill,

Will you be revisiting this MOD?

Also, it won't install in 1.1.10 because of a bug when using "1.1.99" in the INSTALL or UNINSTALL verbs.  Bug has been reported here (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=325849.0).

Post by: Cal O'Shaw on July 22, 2009, 03:22:21 AM
I have had it installed for some time (see my posts earlier in this topic about a bug regarding sticky posts).

I was reporting that there is a problem if someone is installing it on 1.1.10 for the first time as well as hoping Mr. Hill would perhaps address the bug in this MOD.

Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: gbsothere on August 05, 2009, 09:10:15 AM
Just wanted to add, Sabre™, that I browsed the smf_drafts table and found two drafts that looked very familiar and, sure enough, I looked on my forum and there were two threads matching the titles of these drafts that a poster still was showing as "Saved".  I don't know how the drafts counter functions but it seems to me that, at least in this case, drafts that were posted weren't released from the "saved" category.  I would guess that this could mess up the counter?   I deleted them from the DB to see if we're still getting errors, so I'm in the "wait and see" mode.

I doubt this mod itself will be updated to 2.0 because the author doesn't appear to be particularly interested; I even asked if he would like help in making it 2.0 compatible (in 2 separate PMs) but this went unanswered.

I will be developing a mod for this once RC2 is available, not before. As you're all aware there are huge changes afoot in RC2 and I will not be developing and maintaining two separate versions of code.

THANK YOU in advance!! This mod was used alot on my site when I was using the 1.X version of SMF and is missed BADLY..lol. Cant wait for your release!

I was trying to argue this for SMF 2.1 but no-one seemed to listen at the time.

I guess we won't see this MOD updated soon, right?

This is, like, way way way way more useful (and cool).

The Cust. team is pretty busy, given that Nas is on hiatus and in recent times, Fustrate, JBlaze and myself all stepped down.

I know it, Nas and DIN1031 are both On Hiatus and there are only 5 more customizers and I'm not sure but I think of Antechinus is dedicated on Themes so there are too much mods for only 4 people. I was not saying that they should approved soon just let it know the people that a 2.0 RC2 version exists but they need patient if they want to use it.

I've attached a new version which will fix the error or you can just go into your /themes/default/language/index.english.php (or whatever you base language is) and find the $txt[show_drafts] and change it to $txt['showDrafts']

I did gave a shot on this MOD, but my reply didn't worked anymore.

Unknown column 'board_id' in 'field list'

Is it a bug with other MOD?

Sure. Sorry haven't made it yet, I did uninstalled it on the fly, but now I have the time.

Line 1143 it's the end of this code:

if (allowedTo('save_drafts') && !isset($_REQUEST['msg'])) {

// now load the list of drafts this user has
$request = $smcFunc['db_query']('', '
SELECT board_id, topic_id, subject, draft_id, timestamp
FROM {db_prefix}drafts
WHERE member_id = {int:member_id}
ORDER BY timestamp DESC',
array(
'member_id' => $user_info['id']

);

Well, the answer for your both questions are: TONS of it.

Perhaps I should try investigating about this error... How can it be Unknown column 'board_id'? Shouldn't this be a default column on SMF RC3 (my version)?

Unknown column 'board_id' in 'field list'
File: /***/Sources/Post.php
Line: 1143


I had this MOD installed on my forum years ago, when we used SMF 1.1.9.

I upgrade the forum to SMF 2, perhaps this should be some old column of Drafts mod?...

QuoteI had this MOD installed on my forum years ago, when we used SMF 1.1.9.

Bingo! ... If you had the old version of the mod on 1.1x and upgraded to 2.0 you would have an old copy of the database table drafts.  Normally this would not be bad but 2.0 uses a different naming syntax for column names, so while on 2.0 its board_id on 1.1 it would have been boardID.

So what to do ... well guess I need to write an update script as part of the install so if it finds the old table it updates it to be compatible  :P

You can do one of two things in the meantime
1) drop the old drafts table from your database, could be some old drafts in there but who cares at this point really. Then do a fresh install of the mod.
2) Or you can modify the old table by opening the table and changing the column names as follows.
draftID => draft_id
memberID -> member_id
boardID -> board_id
topicID -> topic_id
categoryID -> category_id
isSticky -> is_sticky
smileysEnabled -> smileys_enabled
topicDescription -> topic_description

That's a pity having read the whole caveats accompanying the official release like it will not be supported or no new features will be added and stuff. I will suggest you keep working on your version and maybe you can keep helping others that way. You have my support whatever you do.

Hello,

Just want to understand, there is no enhancements for SMF 1.1.x users?

I think it's super Spuds has provided a path to 2.0.0 for 1.1.x users of this MOD (fantastic work there!).

Since I've heard comments about work on RC4, I'm presuming a final release late this year, early nest year.  And running Production sites is not recommended by SMF, a lot of people will still be on 1.1.x next year.

Any chance that at least the "sticky" problem I've been asking about for well over a year might be fixed for 1.1.x users?

Grazie

Cal

Just wanted to add a comment here:  I have my (1.1.11/default) users copy and paste the contents of the drafts they've been saving, rather than click "Post".  Clicking "Post it" or even clicking "modify" and then posting causes sticky threads to become "un-sticky".  I hate asking my users to do this, but not more than I hate running around re-stickying topics.   :)

Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: gbsothere on August 01, 2010, 09:04:59 AM
Spuds, thanks for that!   :)

I'll give it a go, today, on my test site and let you know.  I appreciate your efforts.



Edit:   Sadly, there's no change but I'll tell you something interesting (and this happened yesterday, before applying your edits, but I guess I thought it was a fluke and didn't pursue it):  When I click "Post It" (from within my profile/saved drafts) it's not returning me to the sticky I created a draft on.  It's returning me to the "Welcome To SMF!" thread (which is the original "first" thread on my test board).  It is "unstickying" the Sticky thread I post to, and it is posting there; it's just not returning me to that thread, but to the board's original thread (actually within that thread).  I don't know if Cal O'Shaw is experiencing this as well, but I do find it odd.  I'm always returned to the thread I post on (having set that option in Profile) unless I'm posting a draft, in which case, I'm returned to that old thread I mentioned.  Odd behavior, and I don't know if it's a contributing factor to Sticky threads losing their sticky?  (Testing on a plain unstickied thread doesn't affect the Sticky threads but it still returns me to that original thread, instead of the one I'm posting on and, again, only when posting a draft, not when posting outright.)

All this jabberwocky in the hopes that it might shed some light on why this is happening.  I know you don't want to get bogged down in troubleshooting the 1.1.x version and I quite understand and respect that, Spuds.

Hello All,

Sorry I've been gone for so long.  The past couple months I've finally had a bunch of time to get things done that I've been too busy to do for a while.  As I told Spuds, I now had time to revisit the drafts mod.  I've been working the past few days on it.  Here are the changes as of now:

! Fixed Sticky problem
! Fixed breaking-spaces and general html entities problems
! Log actions, notifications, member post count updates, and mark read now done properly after posting a draft using "Post it!"
! Improved redirects (after deleting / posting drafts)
! Minimized edits to SMF Source files by separating Drafts source code into its own source file
! Eliminated edits to SMF Language files by separating Drafts txt strings into its own language files
! Minimized edits to SMF Template files by separating Drafts templates into its own template file
! Eliminated inline css
- Dropped support for other modifications
+ Polls now supported
+ Added board select on post form for new topics
+ Support for SMF 2.0 added

Additionally, the install package will allow those of you already using version 1.08 of the drafts mod to upgrade to the latest version.  Obviously, if you are using SMF 2.0 you will have to install (as drafts 1.08 did not support SMF 2.0).

You should expect to see version 2.0.1 of the drafts mod within a couple days at the most.

My version is not available yet.  Also,  I couldn't get the upgrade script to behave properly.  So if you have an  old version of drafts installed, you'll have to uninstall first before installing 2.0.1.  Your current drafts will be retained.

Got it working well on both SMF 1.1.11 and SMF 2.0 RC3.  Additionally I tested an installation of drafts 2.0.1 on a SMF 1.1.11 forum that had previously had drafts 1.08 installed and then uninstalled.  Worked great.  Going to run a few more tests and I just sent an email to Spuds requesting a detailed description of the database table(s) he used for his version of the drafts mod so that I can write in the necessary code to upgrade the db properly (and successfully transfer over existing drafts).

Mr. Hill,

Welcome back!

Testing out your MOD on our 1.1.11 site right now.

Just wondering if at some point it might be possible for Admins to know how many drafts are in use.  Not who has how many (although that could help), and certainly not be able to look at them, but just to get an idea of how much the feature is used.  I would think the call for a count of how many drafts are in the drafts table would not require a lot of resource, but then I'm not writing the call :).

If not, no worries, but it would be helpful if possible.

Again, welcome back, and grazie mille!

I re-read this topic front to back when redoing this mod... I did notice your request for some kind of admin area.  It'll take some time to develop it, and I wanted to get what I had already done out to you guys as soon as possible.  I'll be out of town for 3 weeks starting next week, but I will try to get this done.  If you can think of specifics for what you'd like to be able to do with the admin area, that would helpful.  Thanks!  :)

I do very much appreciate any and all feedback that you guys have to share with me.  I do read it, and I will do my best to provide you with a solid modification for your forums.

You can delete drafts via the list of drafts that is displayed in your profile and on the post page.  If you are an administrator, you can view the drafts of your users in their profile page as well.  You should also be able to delete, edit, and post any of your users' drafts.

If you experiencing what you think is a bug with the mod, please post any errors from your logs that you think are related and a detailed description of what you are doing when you experience the would-be bug.

Post by: Cal O'Shaw on August 07, 2010, 02:45:13 AM
Mr. Hill,

Again, thank you for updating this MOD.  Looks really good.  An unintended side-effect has been when members have clicked REPLY and see all their pending drafts, they noticed that some have been waiting since 2008 and they go and delete them.  That is really helpful! :)  Grazie!

As to administrative features, as I noted earlier it would be helpful to know about how many drafts are in the database.  If you were to go further, being able to have a list of members and how many drafts (or just that they have drafts) would be helpful.  Each member name would be a link to the Show Drafts sub-function that displays the list of drafts for that member.

It might also be nice to set a post minimum before members can access the Drafts feature.  Just to preclude people coming in, creating a bunch of drafts because they don't know what they're doing, and then wandering on, never coming back and leaving drafts to age and fill the table.  (We would probably set it to something like 5, as we do want members to take advantage of this great MOD and if they post 5 messages, they are likely to stay around).

And, based on the above, if you're feeling really adventurous, in the AdminCP be able to set an age, in days, where drafts older than that age raise a flag on the AdminCP.  It might only list members who have one or more Drafts, or it might be a warning on the Post Reply page or Profile of the member to let them know they have some really old drafts that they probably will never send and could perhaps delete.


Hope this list isn't a bother, and that others will chime in, both in their view whether such things are useful or not, as well as their own suggestions.

Hope your three weeks away is for something enjoyable (holiday or such).

Grazie mille,

Cal
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: Cal O'Shaw on August 07, 2010, 01:13:20 PM
I would agree with Spuds on adding a Save as Draft on the Quick Reply option.

I disagree with Spuds about collapsing the Drafts List by default.  Out of sight, out of mind.  So, might I suggest the following two checkboxes on the AdminCP:

- "By default, collapse the Drafts List"
- "Allow users to collapse Drafts List"

Hope these are useful.

Yup that's the fix to the bug Spuds was talking about (the problem deleting drafts).   Easy fix.  :)  Should be noted that bug is only for SMF 2.0.  Drafts for SMF 1.1 doesn't have that bug.  The fix will be included in the next release of the mod.  I'm leaving for my trip tomorrow, but I should be able to get started on incorporating some / possibly all of the suggestions put forth by Spuds and Cal O'Shaw.

@ sonicfetish

After looking at the description for Anti-Spam Verification Questions, it seems as though that mod only messes with registrations (not posting).  Could you post a copy of your site's current Post.php so that I can figure out what is possibly the problem with your site in particular?  Could help find a conflict with another mod.  Could also just be your site.



@ Everybody

I've been super busy since I got back into town, so I haven't had much time to make a second release.  This is what I've got so far for 2.0.2:

! Fixed problem with deleting drafts (SMF 2.0)
! When posting a new topic with a poll via "Post it!" and loading a draft that has stored poll information... now verifies poll related permissions and forum settings
! Added checks for things like trying to post a draft of a reply to a locked topic (using "Post it!")
! Approval attributes for topics and replies now done properly when using "Post it!" (SMF 2.0)
+ Added "Save as Draft" button to Quick Reply
+ Added keyboard shortcut (alt+d / shift+alt+d) to "Save as Draft" button (all instances)

Haven't added an admin area or any draft related settings (yet).  And I still have to look into making the draft page of the user profile area consistent with the rest of the user profile pages (for SMF 2.0).

Not sure if this mod is still being supported but I am trying to install it for a friend of mine on his SMF 2.0RC3 forum with the revontulet theme and am having some issues.

Install seems to go fine, but the Save as Draft buttons never show under a new topic or reply.  Additionally, when trying to make a normal new post, all users get a session timed out error.  So I had to uninstall the mod and users can now make new posts again without any problem.

My error log shows

http://www.identitycrisistg.com/index.php?action=post2;start=0;board=70
8: Undefined variable: drafts_template_loaded
File: /home/ident8/public_html/Themes/default/Post.template.php
Line: 571


and line 571 is as follows

==>571: if (!$context['make_event'] && $drafts_template_loaded !== false)
572: template_drafts_post_save_as_draft_button();


If anyone has any insight into what the issue is I would be very appreciative.  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

i installed this mod for SMF 2.0.1 .

installation was smooth.

sorry, if this version is not compatible .

but, i have some problem, if i save a post as a draft,  any user who visits my profile can see it and he can post it without my approval.

after other user posts my draft, the following error is getting logged in the errorLog -

"The database value you're trying to insert does not exist: id_topic
Function: notifymembersboard"

is there any other modification should i do inorder to avoid other users to post other users drafts..

edit is working fine - other users are not able to edit the draft(But,  if other user clicks on the edit button of the other members draft,  an empty editor is getting displayed. if i click on my draft edit button, editor is getting loaded wit the desired content).

this should be useful also to me. I tried to install drafts on smf 2.0.2, some minor problem (like when you use "post it!" you have an error message about "id_topic" on db, but the topic is posted), but the real big problem is the delete function not working.
The only way is to post the topic and remove it manually after.
In this way the mod is unusable.
any help very much appreciated

Ok two things,

When I delete a member from my forum I am getting the following message:

Unknown column 'id_member' in 'where clause'
File: /***/Sources/Subs-Members.php
Line: 373


after looking at the line of code it refers to it's complaining about my drafts not the actual members, which is why I am assuming I get an error but it will still delete the member from the database.. SMF is working fine and deletes the member then the drafts mod is called and wigs out..

    if (file_exists($sourcedir . '/Drafts.php'))
    {
        $smcFunc['db_query']('', '
            DELETE FROM {db_prefix}drafts
            WHERE id_member IN ({array_int:users})',
            array(
                'users' => $users
            )

Hi.
A member wanted to delete his account, so his delete was pending at my "awaiting approval" list.
After I accepted his request and deleted the account, I received the bellow error:

Unknown column 'id_member' in 'where clause'
Αρχείο: /home/www/******/*******/www/Sources/Subs-Members.php
Line: 373

(The note of this error is at Greek language, so I will try to translate it as best I can)
Note: Your data base probably needs update. The forum's files are in version SMF 2.0.4, while the database is in version 2.0.2. The above error probably it will be fixed if you run the last version of the upgrade.php.

The member's account seems to deleted, but this error needs a solution as I see from the log file.

The line 373 at "Subs-Member.php" file is the " ); " text.


if (file_exists($sourcedir . '/Drafts.php'))
{
$smcFunc['db_query']('', '
DELETE FROM {db_prefix}drafts
WHERE id_member IN ({array_int:users})',
array(
'users' => $users
)
);
}




As it seems, this must be affected from this "Drafts" mod.

I use this mod for long time and I have accustom the way that it shows the saved topics, every time you open the reply editor, so I would like to continue using it.

So is there any way to fix this problem?



Ps: I know this problem have been posted 2 times before at other topics, but it seems it was not the right topics, so I hope to not created any confusion to the members.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: emanuele on November 28, 2013, 08:25:33 AM
Replace the code above with:

$smcFunc['db_query']('', '
DELETE FROM {db_prefix}drafts
WHERE member_id IN ({array_int:users})',
array(
'users' => $users
)
);

Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: jm_araujo on December 25, 2013, 02:31:43 PM
I'm using SMF 2.0.6.
There's a missing string in the language file:
$txt['permissiongroup_simple_drafts'] = 'Drafts';"
Without it in the simple view of permissions it won't show a title.

Also when you add the line to Profile.php:
$profile_areas['info']['areas']['show_drafts']['label'] = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $memID . ';area=show_drafts">' . $txt['drafts'][2] . '</a> <span class="smalltext">(' . $num_drafts . ')</span>';

It should be:
$profile_areas['info']['areas']['show_drafts']['label'] = $txt['drafts'][2] . ' (' . $num_drafts . ')';

This way it displays much better in my forum.

Also had to change  in "Drafts.template.php":
"area=showdrafts" to "area=show_drafts
to be able to delete drafts as explained by msauser2

I also include a Portuguese (from Portugal) translation.
Title: Re: Drafts
Post by: jm_araujo on December 26, 2013, 06:28:20 PM
And line 627 in Drafts.php should not be:
'topic' => $topic
but
'topic' => $topicOptions['id']

Or else you will get an error when posting a new topic from a draft.

(this one took a bit longer to find and solve)

Quote

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

<smf>
    <shoutbox>11</shoutbox>

As you hit the back button in the browser the actual draft message has been deleted, so it works, but is is just that screen with the text that comes up.

Can someone help?

Hello live627...

I don't know if this will help or not, but I just realise that if you save a draft and just after you have saved (you can still see the green message that confirm that you have save it), you click on the checkbox and select delete, you always get that page with that text.
But if you try to delete the same draft from the Profile page, then it works fine without showing the other page with the text.

To make that bold and in the center just change this line in Draft.english.php

From this:

'Your work has been saved as a draft.',

To This:

'<center><strong>Your work has been saved as a draft.</strong></center>',

I wouldn't make the text any bigger than bold...

How to edit this line
"Your work has been saved as a draft."
when we save draft,..the line appears in left,...
so i want to modify this line,...
i want to bold this line and adjust it in center and also make it little big !!
live627 atleast reply to my problem !!
waiting for your reply willingly...... :-\

To make that bold and in the center just change this line in Draft.english.php

From this:

'Your work has been saved as a draft.',

To This:

'<center><strong>Your work has been saved as a draft.</strong></center>',

I wouldn't make the text any bigger than bold...

Hi there...

Now, You have understood how it works, but I said "by using the right Syntax"

So in this case use this:

'<strong><center><span style="font-size: 16px;">Your work has been saved as a draft.</span></center></strong>',

You can then change the size of the fonts to what ever you like. If you like to experiment, just make a copy of the original file and just play with the other till you are happy with the results. You should also try to google these kind of questions, as the answers are already all out there....

Now go and play with all the other language text.php file that are inside the folder...  :D

Hi there!
I think i found smt strange in the new version. After the update every user can see how much drafts have any other user. Also there is info about the topic subject, the board and the last saved time. Is that a normal behavior and can I stop it from showing that kind of information to any registered member?

I'm running SMF 2.0.7 at http://gardenerschat-shed.net/forum (http://gardenerschat-shed.net/forum)

I've just downloaded & installed the Drafts 2.0.5 mod so that members can save a draft for future editing before posting.

The mod seems to have installed OK BUT I now have two 'Save as Draft' buttons:



Whichever one is pressed after an editing session the message just gets posted as if the 'Post' button has been pressed.

Can anyone help me resolve this please?

Thanks for that live627, but I find your 'minimalist' style answers a little vague. I've read the contents of the link you provided, but do I edit ALL those files to get the Draft mod to work? That's a hefty exercise. A short little explanation would help so that I don't have to continually come back to try and squeeze more information out of you! In the long run it takes longer than providing sufficient information to begin with.

I now find that if I uninstall the Draft mod then I get an error message that the Drafts 'template' cannot be loaded to open the site up at login. So I'm stuck with double 'Save as Draft' buttons that only post comments rather than save them for editing later.

Can you provide a bit more comprehensive support for me please?

thanks.

You need to FTP in, edit post.template.php Find the code it is looking for, and add the code it says to after it. Make sure you download a copy of that file before you make any changes. If you make a mistake you can reupload the file before it was changed so you will be back to where you started from.

Referring to this (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=525857.msg3757965#msg3757965) I might suggest a new feature/improvement/whatever-you-want-to-call-it ;)

It will be a bit different since I am supposed to work with the default theme so... Here we go.

Sources/Subs.php
Code (find) Select

'show' => allowedTo(array('profile_extra_any', 'profile_extra_own')),
),


Code (add after) Select

'drafts' => array(
'title' => $txt['draftsninja'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=profile;area=show_drafts',
'show' => allowedTo(array('save_drafts')),
),


And also languages/drafts.english.utf-8.php (or even non-utf, whatever it's the same in both files)
Code (find) Select

?>


Code (add before) Select

$txt['draftsninja'] = 'Drafts';


Refer to the message I linked above to see what it does (well in this case it will only be added below the "Forum profile" sub-menu since it's the default modification, if you install also the other one then the edits should be different).

First off, great mod! I'd been wanting something like this for a while but kept forgetting to check and see if it existed, eventually got around to it during my massive overhaul of our site.

One thing though that I'm confused by, you mentioned that you'd added a "save draft" option to the quick reply box but it doesn't appear to be there and from looking at the install xml file, you don't modify the display.template at all to even attempt to insert the button so is that a feature you haven't actually implemented or did you forget to include the code for it?

Though I'm now suspecting that he's not related to this mod and thus shouldn't really have been posting updates about what exists in this mod's thread? Clearly I wasn't the only one confused by that post though as I ran a search of the topic looking for details of a quick reply save function and did see a lot of people quoting that post asking why it wasn't working haha.

Do you have any plans on adding it to the quick reply box? The only other drafts mod on the mods page seems to add it, but it has other short comings which are greater such as the inability to save polls and it doesn't seem to have any permissions for who can use it.

On a more serious note, I just install the 2.0.5 version and every time you try to delete a draft it goes to a new page with the following:


Quote

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

<smf>
    <shoutbox>11</shoutbox>
    <updated>0</updated>
</smf>


As you hit the back button in the browser the actual draft message has been deleted, so it works, but is is just that screen with the text that comes up.

Can someone help?

Thanks

Hello,

I wanted to bump this issue because I'm having the same problem with Drafts 2.2 (previously had 2.0.5 and 2.1).  And it appears the conflicting mod is Shoutbox (and Shoutbox Pro).  If I disable Shoutbox, I'm able to delete drafts with no issue.

This line is causing issues in the post template.
is where it's at!
if (!isset($context['draft_saved']) || $context['draft_saved'] !== true)
echo '


What is happening here is the preview section is excluded after saving a draft. If a member decides to preview, the page is reloaded. Afterwords if they save again a duplicate is created.

A simple fix would be to just exclude the content of the preview div or display:none instead of excluding the entire div. This would give the JavaScript something to hook onto if the user decides to preview after saving.

On forum 2.0.19 I was using your mod. I updated the forum to 2.1 but I don't want to lose drafts that are saved in user profiles. Do you know how to properly transfer the saved drafts from this mod's table to the SMF 2.1 drafts table?

smf_drafts table in 2.0 where drafts are stored



smf_user_drafts table in 2.1 where drafts are stored


Perhaps this query could help. You'll need to truncate user_drafts first.

INSERT INTO {db_prefix}user_drafts
(id_draft, id_member, id_board, id_topic, body, subject, poster_time, is_sticky, locked, smileys_enabled, icon)
SELECT draft_id, member_id, board_id, topic_id, body, subject, timestamp, is_sticky, locked, smileys_enabled, icon
FROM {db_prefix}drafts

Since id_draft is autoincrement, why not just insert without even that (no need to truncate the current table if you're not porting draft ids over and you don't need to)

He will not do it, or at least not anytime soon.

Post it publicly, there's a shot someone can help you. I do not do private support except for money and I'm pretty sure my rates will be unaffordable at this point.

It may not be unaffordable. Will you PM me your rates?

My consulting rates vary, starting at $2500/hour, minimum 4 hours, with no guarantee of resolution of issue in that time.

Or you could post whatever it is publicly.
