Anthology of Ideas

Downloaded and installed AJAXed WP, looks interesting but I have to admit I am a bit lost as to how to use it and what it actually does. Do you have any kind of documentation I can read about this herculean effort?

   There is a sizable readme, but the biggest help will probably be the little hints inside the Admin panel. (click the [?])

   The documentation is still a work-in-progress, so if you have any questions outside of what the readme answers, I’ll try to explain them the best I can.

   I must agree. How do i use it? The things it is suppose to do are very attractive. I can’t download the readme file. Perhaps it is a Safari thing.

      Just read the posts in the linked forum. That is the readme. There is too much information to be stored in a single file.

Love the plugin! Thank you very much for your effort.

Wow, fast reply. Incredible support. Everything is working now. Thanks a lot, even when your plugin was not causing the problem. Be sure I will use PayPal for you in the next days (finishing current month, let me get the money). Thanks a lot again.

I have an idea and I’m wondering if this plug would make it work:

I’d like to have people be able to submit posts in the same way you can a comment. This would allow users to post without having to go through a separate login page and the wp dashboard or anything.

On this add post page/form, they could enter in their user/pass via ajax and the rest would look just like the add posts form.

Do you think this could work? It would be really nice to keep the posting simple with NO admin/dashboard, etc. Just like how the comment form is visible to everyone, this form could be too. They’d just have to enter the user/pass to be able to submit.

Thanks for any feedback or ideas.

   This would be an interesting project, but I don’t see a wide-spread demand for it, so I don’t think it will find its way into AWP.

   Valerie,

   There’s already a plugin for WordPress that will do this. It’s called TDO Mini Forms. You can download it here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tdo-mini-forms/

It is compatible will all of the latest WP versions.

I’m test this and I very impressed with it!
Thank you very so much and keep the great work. Cheers.

Aaron, Valerie is absolutely right. It would be incredibly useful to let authors (including me) log in and add, edit and manage posts from the front end of the blog, instead of forcing them (and me) to go through the back end process. It would rid everyone of a lot of unnecessary navigation for edits and updates, and getting rid of unnecessary work in a process is always worth a short term effort. For the record, I’d pay for that plugin in a heartbeat, just for the time and effort it would save me.

Also very importantly, it would make it easy for authors to build up blog communities that don’t require lots of training time and support. For instance, I just showed a friend a non-standard way that I use a blog, and he immediately mentioned that an organization he belongs to could really use that for their members. I can have a WP site with a custom theme up in 3 days once I’ve got their needs mapped and their template in hand. But there’s no way a single developer can help a modestly-sized (hundreds of members) organization roll a WP or WP-MU blog site because I’d have to run every user through training on using the backend for posts, and then support them over time too. They’ve got the budget for the site, but not for the training and support (and I don’t have the endless time it would take).

However, if the end-user training consisted of an tutorial email with instructions and a couple of pictures, such as “here’s your blog url, username and password. Click the login link and log in, then click the Add button on the front page, type your post and click Submit” …. that’s a whole WORLD of usability apart from where WP is now. All that backend training and support burden goes away for everyone.

If you need to see demand, how about posting an article that asks the simple Yes – No question-

“Would it be better if you and other authors could add, edit and manage posts on the front end of your site instead of through the Admin panel?”

Actually, just looking at the question, who’s going to say “No” to that? lol

   I second Valerie and DavidA. What a great idea! I immediately see a huge potential for such a function.

   DavidA,

   Check out TDO Mini Forms for users to submit content from the public side of your site. You can download it here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tdo-mini-forms/

   Also, if you want people to be able to edit items already posted on the public side, you should look at the Flutter Plugin. It’s not be best supported plugin and it has a lot of other things that you may not need (custom write panels, etc.) but it does allow users to edit content they’ve submitted on the public side. You can download it here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/fresh-page/ It has a setting that allows you to edit items on the public side in the Flutter Settings page.

I enjoyed your page. Keep up the good work! Feel free to visit my page. It\’s cool too.

Hi Aaron.

thank you for your wonderful plugin.

do you have any idea why my comment form stopped working correctly in firefox ?

click on “Ù?ظر دارÙ?” to see. if you right-click on any of controls, it works.

is it because of the old version of plugin?

It is compatible will all of the latest WP versions

well, i don’t understand what i was doing wrong – but i couldn’t get this plugin to do a damn thing

after an hour of banging my head on the wall and browsing the quite frankly useless documentation, i give up

for the record – this was with wp2.5.1 with virtually no other plugins active (certainly nothing that should conflict)

Forgot to mention: running on WP 2.5.1.

Btw: if you have a look at my webpage: by default my comment form is open on index.php. if you compare the top comment form with the following you might see that they have a different styling. Do you know why’s that different?

very valuable plugin I think, thanks for sharing

I recently moved from a hosted environment to my own Server. I setup the server so my setup might be different from the hosting environment. All my word-press plugins work, except for AWP which complains with :

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘AWP_inlineposts::post_paginate’ was given in /var/www/herowner.com/htdocs/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 311

I wonder what that is coming from? Google was not exactly helpful. If you need my php.ini, please let me know.

hey Aaron! long time huh? Guess what, I’ve decided to auto-update… and things got messy – as always =p I lost the commentform I was using, and I have no idea of where it’s gone… if it’s been deleted and all that… it had custom text and didn’t had those formatting buttons…

and yeah, I know I should have posted on the forum, but I forgot my password, and I can’t access personal email at work =( also, that’s why I’m using another email in this comment – if you can answer me on this I’ll be able to read =)

thanks and keep up the great work! as soon as I get my hands on a new card I’ll be sure to make a donation, Ajaxed rlz =D

I have WordPress 2.6 with the Cutline 3 Column Right theme. Even for a newbie there was no problem with installation but the comments are in a very small font and everything seems crammed together, even on a 22″ screen. At 69 years of age even a 10- or 12-point font would be helpful. Also, my comments are just simple type. They don’t have the nice blue header strip to each pos as yours does. Is it a matter of having selected a wrong option or two? I know a little html but no css or php. Is there hope for me?

This seems like a great plugin.

Hello bro, this plugins is so AWESOME!!, the last version worked perfect on my blog. I’ll give you a small donation for this great work.

nice plugin!

The features of this plug-in is tempting me to use it in my Wordpress installation. Will be trying it shortly. Thanks for the continuous efforts being made to improve it. Hats off to those who are involved in this effort.

I apologize for my ignorance but I am less than a rookie at this. I downloaded and installed aWP and when I activated it in WordPress I received the following:

Warning: AWP::include_once(/home/tellmeab/public_html/wp-content/plugins/plugins/control/aWP-upgrade.php) [function.AWP-include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/tellmeab/public_html/wp-content/plugins/aWP.php on line 73

Do I need to be concerned?

   It looks like you uploaded the stuff inside the AWP folder rather than the big folder itself.

   When you unzip the download, upload everything inside one folder.

Hi there.
I would love to use your plugin, but I read it might conflict with “subscribe to comments”, see:

is that the case ?

Great plugin, thanks a lot

Thanks! Your plugin is great!

I have done you a little donation for your work by PayPall.

So i hope in your sincere friendship.

But really can send to my blog 200 ore 500 visits?

I dont Know, but your work is wonderful and i hope in our future friendship.

With estimate.

Rob.

I have tried this Ajaxed Wordpress plug-in twice now – and both times it didn’t do anything!

Now I read that you suggest monkey patch modifications to core Wordpress files.

Is that really required to get this thing running? What am I doing wrong?

Can’t this plugin just be activated and go like other WP plugins?

Thanks
Rick

   I’ve never suggested hacking wordpress core files. I’m not sure where you read this, but whoever said it wasn’t me.

   Go to the actual website at ajaxedwp.com read the readme and the help in the admin panel. This plugin is bigger and more complex than most plugins so it will always be a bit harder than activating and just going.
