[bd] Widget Framework 2.6.6

[Mouth]

I entered

$visitor['user_id'] > 0

into the expressions field for a widget (Birtdays) and when doing so it does not show for any users, regardless of being logged out of logged in.

Which position are you using?

Which position are you using?

Position: all

Position: all

Are you sure you have some birthday today?

 

[Mouth]

Are you sure you have some birthday today?

Yes, as soon as I remove the expression then the block returns with x5 users for today.

I think I know the root cause of this, can you try using the position "forum_list" or any other template name?

I do have version "2.0.6" installed.

Is there any specific reason I "need" to update this Add-on ?

Thanks a lot!

The Feed Reader is introduced in 2.1 Other than that nothing much.

Yes, it works appropriately then.
But I prefer to have it on all.

That will be looked into in the next release.

Hm, so I was messing around with this and I'm not sure what the issue is here.

This outputs nothing, however the PHP equivalent is outputting fine.

    public static function templateHook($hookName, &$contents, array $hookParams, XenForo_Template_Abstract $template)
    {
        if ($hookName == 'forum_list_nodes')
        {
            $params = $template->getParams();
            $contents .= $template->create('dark_taigachat', $params);;
        }
    }

Also is there a way to pass parameters to the template?

I'm not sure about the template "dark_taigachat" but it it depends on the template parameters to work, it will not work if you use a hook position. The reason for this is: for hook position, only hook parameters are available. Probably I will just forward all the template parameters...

It would also be nice if when specifying a hook if you were able to specify weather to append or prepend it to the hook.

Using a negative display order will prepend the contents.

Does anyone know how I might go about creating a recent threads widget that grabs recent threads from a different installation of XF? I'd like to have two on my sidebar, one displaying threads from the main installation and one from the other and vice versa. Both site's databases are on the same server.

Use Feed reader widget

Use Feed reader widget

Awesome. Having trouble finding how to really use it though. I got it to display a very ugly RSS feed and I've read in this thread that it can display XF stuff and make it look good, but I can't figure out how that happens. Is there any documentation that I'm missing?

I think you can use RSS feed from the other installation for the Feed Reader and posts from that site should show up as expected.

Ah, you need to put "<?php" at the beginning of your file. Something like this

Hey xfrocks, I think I know the answer to this one, is there ANY way of allowing XF conditionals in my php file that is a widget?

I don't understand your question
