@ŽivaAkcija, what's WF?

 

[ŽivaAkcija]

Widget Framework https://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-widget-framework.297/

and new version have more options https://xfrocks.com/widget-framework/threads/bd-widget-framework-v2-6-0-beta.313/

 

[Siropu]

Well, this Add-on is focused on Recent Posts only and looks and does things differently. I've built this Add-on (like the rest of my Add-ons), for my community, using my own approach...

 

[ŽivaAkcija]

good for your community?

So? In my case I avoid to use wf and is really great have more options.

@Siropu, there are some additional db queries with this addon? if so, how many?
Thank you!

Yes, and best of all the widget framework is free, so you don't have to pay for a separate add on.

@rafass, the Add-on uses one query with or without cache. When cache is enabled, the main query is saved in the cache and a new query is used to check permissions. This query doesn't really meter because the permissions table is small and queries are very fast. I could cache results based on permission_combination_id but you could end up with lots of cache items and I don't think it will improve performance that much.

I'm using this Add-on on a board with over 600k posts with cache disabled and it works great.

@oman, use what's best for you.

I need this to work with Widget Framework. Please update. It would sell like hotcakes. Thx.

If you need it to work with the widget framework, just install the widget framework and use the block provided within it. It's basically identical to this, but you can add as many as you want.

If you need it to work with the widget framework, just install the widget framework and use the block provided within it. It's basically identical to this, but you can add as many as you want.

But this block has the options that I want, one being it will show the thread prefix and can set caching.

Can you please explain what do you mean by work with WF?

[sami simo]

Yes please, add WF support, or at least an option to display the widget over forum list.

 

[Siropu]

@PASS, What I don't understand is, how would you want this to work with WF? In what way?

 

[oman]

@xfrocks could probably explain better about making it work with the widget framework. It would involve you coding a block to import into the widget framework.

I agree I would be a buyer if it was Widget Framework compatible, there are others such as the one by Andy
but none are Widget framework compatible if this one was it would be a hit.
