XenLate 1.1.2

[LPH]

LPH submitted a new resource:

XenLate - Show WordPress Blog Post or Page Titles and Excerpt with a XenForo widget

This is my attempt at a first XenForo 2 addon. It is a Xenforo widget which will pull the lastest posts or pages from a WordPress installation. This addon should not require a bridge but the authors of the blog posts ID and user_id should match.

Options
Set the absolute path
Set the widget title
Set the number of blog posts to show (Default=5)
Set on offset (Default = 0)
Set the post type (Default = post)

It does not work, I uploaded the folder to /var/www/forum.formazioneturismo.com/src/addons

In addon I put TRN folder with all the content. Nothing appears in the panel

in widget_trn_xenlate_latestposts_items template
Can I show category of the blog post that it belongs to?
Category (category name and its link)

in widget_trn_xenlate_latestposts_items template
Can I show category of the blog post that it belongs to?
Category (category name and its link)

These are great suggestions. I was trying to match the style of XF2 widgets but think the categories would be pretty sweet.

I plan to release a new version. It's running on xendevelopment.com. Maybe I can try to add categories to that code.

When you click on Admin CP > widgets and add a widget then you don't see the definition XenLate: Latest Blog Posts?

That is great!

Also, there is a small issue more that I would suggest to improve.

I want to show username which I have set in "Display name publicly as:" from Wordpress than showing real admin username from Wordpress. (this option is in Wordpress wp-admin user account)

No I see nothing. I see nothing even in the addons

I'd double check that you uploaded it to the correct place.

Do you see the files located in the TRN folder?:
/src/addons/TRN

 

[F.Mongiello]

Yes..

 

[LPH]

Do you see the file LatestWordPressPost.php?

 

[F.Mongiello]

I see it here src/addons/TRN/XenLate/XF/Widget

 

[LPH]

Good. When you go to the Admin CP >> Addons then you don't see XenLate?

Try this zip file and let's see what happens.

 

[F.Mongiello]

I do not see anything, I've uploaded the new files and I do not see anything

 

[F.Mongiello]

my xenforo version is 2.0.7 if it can help

 

[LPH]

I'm not sure why this isn't showing in your Admin CP. I'm using XF 2.0.7 locally and have it on my site.

I'm working on another release. Let me finish it up and upload. We can try that version.

 

[F.Mongiello]

I do not know if it's a question of folder positioning.

I've tried both in /var/www/forum.formazioneturismo.com/upload/src/addons/

and also in /var/www/forum.formazioneturismo.com/src/addons/

loading the TRN folder complete with all the files
