1.7.2 is coming - memo requests

Post by axew3 »

Before the 4.8 release (08 Giu) would be nice to release 1.7.2.

Resolve/add on plugin:
1) Fix correct code flow, if registration on WP for the WP user fail (maybe due to a thrown WP error), but in true 1.7.1 actually downloadable have been patched already about this on file class.wp.w3all-phpbb.php.
2) Buddypress profile fields update.
3) ...

About iframe
1) Remove modal login screen. Since addition of the latest js code on overall_footer.html, it is no longer needed: the modal login can be substituted by vars passed through js between phpBB and WP. In WP forum page it is so just required to detect the phpBB user state, and reload page to update WP state if/when requested.
2) Fix append iframe=true to url for links when opened on new window/tab on browser, and to be rewrite by htaccess: this need to be only for links that belongs and point to the phpBB forum.
3) ...

Please report more bugs and additions requests that for sure i've forget in the while. Or why not, ready coded feature to add. I'm ever optimist!

2) Buddypress profile fields update.
sometime i'm too hurried on conclusions ... in fact, while it is easy to customize in a singular install: i mean for example, for a site where we know already, fields we need to add/update. This is very easy code.
But since any install, could add custom fields, how to do a code that will be good for anybody and to be a plugin feature? ... it is necessary to take decision about how to achieve.
Both phpBB and WP allow custom profile fields (WP on buddypress, phpBB on default core) ...
How to resolve this, good for any install, and have profiles fields update for phpBB and WP?
thinking on it there are several ways, really many ...
so the one logic/code i think can be good for all is this (maybe not so smart, but that will work!) ... we could ...

1) do an option on wo_w3all config, to activate this feature if on buddypress
2) while this option active, on page reload, WP buddypress profiles fields are deleted, and all phpBB profiles fields pushed in place of WP buddypress fields in WP. Thinking now, if ... maybe better the contrary? WP profiles fields pushed into phpBB fields?

1.7.2 release has been delayed due to some little overwork here, i'm sorry ...

Fix for email notification on iframe:
If you want to view the post, click the following link:
viewtopic.php?iframe=true&p=2138#p2138
this kind of link fail to be pushed and redirect to index forum instead.

@Goofkop
Request: change the the font (lettertype) of the login form and last forum messages (widgets).
sorry i didn't have well understand this, can you please give me a better explain!?
the font you want can be declared into css inline code for the widget, or better, into css file of the theme (but normally it should assume the others widgets fonts by default).
By the way, i see that if the widget isn't with links for iframe, than the widget row distance display in not so elegant/correct way.
Of course it can be changed with easy, but better to have something better by default.
Still not sure if better add a separate css, to be added into custom config folder (so when plugin update the css isn't lost) ... While the option into wp_w3all config about css, seem to be far from the plugin scope. So better a custom css in case.

secondary (but important) security fixes
...

simplify install that is now very easy and clear
fix correct redirect to iframe for some links
improve page-forum (that do not need to edited about domain js settings)
