Yootil 1.1.2 [Updated: 8th Dec, 2018]

[Thesealion]

I still cannot seem to replicate the issue...

Could you try clearing your cache and cookies?

[Chris]

Considering yootil does not execute any code, I really don't see how this could happen unless you attempted to edit the plugin...

Also, please open your error console and post any errors here. That's going to be the most helpful for us.

No attempt was made to edit plugin.

Cleared error cache, then reproduced problem. Here is the code:

I had tried clearing cache and cookies but still had issue.

[Chris]

It looks like Avast is blocking it. Please disable Avast (temporarily) and see if it works then.

I disabled all Avast shields, disabled the Avast Webrep addon in Firefox, and the issue remained.

Here is all the error code from the FF error console after refreshing FF and trying to create a Thread with formatting:

That was the only error.

There were a lot of warnings dealing with css in the Global Styles.


There were several warnings dealing with:

Just wondering but why are there two functions that seem to do the same thing? This is under location check

conversation_new Are we currently creating a new conversation?
convertation_create Are we currently creating a new conversation?

Also, could you guys possibly create storage functions for storing things in local storage and whatever other type of storage works with IE 7 that will stay longer than just the one session??


Boy am I smart...I should probably read the last post on a thread before posting Do you think you could post an example of setting storage that will not end at the end of a session? I don't think i quite understand how it works

One last thing, do we have permission to download the JS file? I am interested in trying to add a few functions myself which I would then submit to you guys (don't worry I will NOT claim the code  ). Chances are I'll never actually get anything, but I at least want to try

Edit: Since this sorta got buried I am gonna tag you guys to make sure you see it. Sorry for the inconvenience  Chris Peter

Sorry for the delay in responding, am so busy I don't really even have time to respond lol.

There is a valid reason for the 2 conversation checks, but I can't remember how to duplicate it (Chris will likely know).  Hopefully ProBoards may fix this for consistency.

Sorry, storage docs hasn't been added yet, I wrote the storage stuff but it's not fully tested yet.  Once I get time this week to go over it, I will update the docs.

It should be as simple as...

yootil.storage.set("key", "value");

There is a 3rd and 4th param.  3rd = json, 4th = persist

yootil.storage.set("key", "value", true, true); //json and persist

yootil.storage.get("key", true, true); // last 2 params = json and persist (I might change this and call get directly from the storage class, not sure yet).


As for adding your own stuff.  I suggest learning how to use GIT, as that is what the project is using, that way you can commit and push to the rep. and then we can decided if we wish to merge it into the master branch.

Can you install this dev plugin for me, and then post the error console again, as I would like to see the real line number for that error.

I installed plugin, disabled Avast WebRep, cleared error console, then clicked on Create Thread in a board. Here is the error report from FF error console, minus Warnings:

Peter, I now have 2 yootil plugins showing, both same size, neither indicates it may be a dev plugin. Is this correct or am I doing something wrong?

[Thesealion]

Peter - I see how you can edit the code, but I don't understand how I would test it to make sure what I am trying to do actually works...without installing the JS file on a forum that is...

Disable the other plugin, just use the one I posted and enable it.  problem at the moment is due to a cached file.

Maybe a link to your forum open for us just to verify the plugin is using the correct JS file, which should not be the minified version.

Done. URL is smashwordstest.freemessageboards.com/  The V5 Beta board is open to anyone.

If you require admin access let me know and I'll PM you.

You need to clone the project.  Have a read of this...

help.github.com/articles/duplicating-a-repo

Get a clone for yourself for testing.  If you are creating a new namespace (i.e yootil.something), then you need to create a new file, and then merge it into the src file which you would then upload to your host so you can test it.

If merging isn't possible, just open up yootil.src.js and add your object / methods to that.  If you do this, don't push it to the repo, you will need to modify the file in the src folder and push that, or create your own in the src folder and push it.  We can do the merging and minifying our end, though would be helpful if you could mimic our setup.

Chris pushed his build folder, and depending on your environment, I can push my build folder as well, which contains php scripts for the merging and minifying (we use UglifyJS which you will need to clone).

Everything looks good my end.  Just do a hard refresh and post anything from the console relating to Yootil.

I also noticed you are using my Global Messages plugin.  Look for an update at the weekend for that, I noticed there was some debug code in there that is writing out to the console (nothing that should break cause an issue though).
