coming 2.6.8 logs and requests
Posted: Sat Dec 17, 2022 9:11 am
2.6.7 has been released to fix a common login issue, and to fix just little more things.
A 2.6.7 request was about phpBB Groups/WP roles integration.
The old long time request never coded may will be considered to be done in some way on next 2.6.8.
Anyway this morning, dedicating some little time to look around this possible feature and how it should be efficiently coded, and effective for any configuration, it result to me that i have very clear how it can be done for a specific configuration, but not so easy to imagine something simple for all uses.
Maybe an array. A configurable array of values where a role/membership in WP will correspond to Groups in phpBB and viceversa.
As said, it is very easy to be coded for specifics, much less for all plugins together- We'll see if it can be surpassed some way.
p.s note that the groups/roles integration will NOT be provided by adding options into plugin admin. I will never code (i think, if not payed almost 100.000$) the UI of something like this, but i think will be easy to be modified and used for any scope by the cool people!
Code: Select all
