Thanks for the help!

Would we use the sidebar plugin or the config.inc.php file to set the cookie?

What we'd like to do is set up a poll then include it into an entry. That way for each new poll, we have a new entry for it. This would also allow us to run several polls at once.

Has anyone experimented with adding a php poll (other than the polls plugin)?

If so, were you successful, and if you were successful, would you share how you did it?

Thanks

We were having the same problem but found a possible solution. When we set up the user account we neglected to enter an e-mail address. Once we gave the account an e-mail address the problem went away.

What does the e-mail checking option do in the Spam Protector plugin? I thought it might verify that an e-mail address exists, but it appears that if a user just enters string@string.string it will allow a comment to post.

Is this correct?

We're looking for a plugin that would send an e-mail to ...

Could I use the "Forbid Creating Entries" status instead of the publishing rights status?

If so, instead of 'right publish' what would I use for that data field?

Is it possible to deactivate a user, making them invisible in the author list sidebar, without deleting their account? We have some authors who haven't written for us in a while and so we don't want them showing up in our authors sidebar for now. They might be doing some postings in the future, so ...

I think I figured out the download thing. But I updated all of the files and it still isn't showing the option for target.

Maybe because I'm still on version 1.0? We're waiting to upgrade to 1.1 until it's the recommended release.

So I need to update all of the foreign language files? They all had modification dates much older than the two files I updated.

Also, is it possible to download the entire plugin at once instead of file by file on the berliOS site?

I'm not sure if these are feature requests or template changes.

How would I make the overline on the comments admin page (Comment #, In reply to ______ , on Aug 28 2006, 13:38) link to the actual entry? I'm using the carl_contest template, but I don't know if one of the other templates has this ...

I'm so accustomed to Spartacus, I'm not sure how to update a plugin by hand. I uploaded the serendipity_event_bbcode.php and the lang_en.inc.php files to the serendipity_event_bbcode, but I'm not sure what to do next to get the system to recognize them and give me the radio or checkbox to change the ...

Oh my god. You are right. I'm terribly sorry for sounding so rude, and also being wrong with my statement.

No worries. Thanks for all of your help.

I'm not sure if it is a browser setting, though. I inserted links using html and BBCode, and the html ones stay in the parent window, but the BBCode ones open new windows.

Does BBCode by default open a new window for links?

As a fix, we've added a perl script on a 10-minute cron that reads the output from the js files and creates a flat file that a new js call on the external site can pull in to show the entries.

This might be something worth exploring as a plugin. It doesn't allow for the immediate display of new ...
