Snippet Plugins

Bleistivt

This aims to be a complete collection of plugins that have been posted in a discussion but are not available in the addons repository.

These are mostly small plugins that solve very specific problems, but they might be useful for other people as a learning resource.

Note that the authors probably don't intend to support these plugins.
Not all of these are full functioning plugins but templates for a plugin.

Always read the other comments on these threads as there might be more important or useful info regarding these snippets.

There are probably many more, so feel free to answer with a plugin you know or made (or edit in in, if you can).

here's one

inserts a "Stay Focused on: Title of discussion inserted in each and every comment."

may keep discussants on track with discussion title. if you are the sort of forum owner that wants to avoid meandering in threads and suggest to participants to start new threads if primary subject changes.

<?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit();


$PluginInfo['StayFocused'] = array(
   'Name' => 'Stay Focused',
   'Description' => 'Places Title in all comments to keep discussants focused.',
   'Version' => '1.0',
   'MobileFriendly' => TRUE,
   'Author' => "The focuser"
);



class StayFocusedPlugin extends Gdn_Plugin {


public function DiscussionController_BeforeCommentBody_Handler($Sender) {
            $Discussion = $Sender->EventArguments['Discussion'];
            echo T("Stay focused on: ") . $Sender->Title($Discussion->Name);
            }

}

feel free to change case and indentation.

I took the Spoiler plugin and modified the code and CSS to behave like a WordPress "More..." function. I think @Linc indicated that there is an outstanding request for that (in github?), so probably some people asked for it.

I described how to modify the plugin in this discussion.

If anyone wants, I can paste here the entire modified version (which I renamed for my purposes).
And of course, credit is due to Tim Gunter- the original developer of Spoilers.

217583 CheckRoleSmarty - Add smarty function via plugin with example check role

I'd totally love that! My discussions would only have titles like "Distraction", "Smurfette", "Currywurscht", "The Mosquito on your forehead", etc.
