Fix for TDO Mini Form’s drag’n’drop issue in WordPress 3.0 coming

Got to the bottom of not being able to drag and drop in my TDO Mini Forms plugin after WordPress 3.0 upgrade. The fix will take a bit of time to do as it requires a little re-engineering of the Create Forms screen.

The problem occurred because with WordPress 3.0, they also updated their jQuery libraries and re-engineered how you load them. To be honest, I didn’t expect a jQuery update would break existing jQuery-based code, but sadly it’s nothing more than I would expect.

I’ll get a proper fix out for it something this week.

  3. Hi @playrl, no nothing more specific. I might be able to get sometime today on my lunch break, but I really can’t be more specific than I’m currently being. Sorry.

    Thank you for the excellent work.
    I came across with one bug (I think so)
    When I try to insert a custom field and save the form that custom field vanishes. Oh well back to 2.9.2

  7. @novotraco And this is something you noticed with WP3.0 only? I didn’t notice this, but I wasn’t doing extensive testing. Okay I’ll have a look shortly.

    Yes it is only on WP3.0. In the meanwhile i exported a form with 7 custom fields from WP 2.9.2 and then imported it into WP 3.0 and the custom fields appear. But if I edit the form on “form creator” and hit “save form” puff! they all go away.

  9. Thanks for the clarification @novotraco. I’ll have a look into it tomorrow. I have a good idea what might be the culprit.

    Hey, finnaly you’re back :)
    What a great plugin, don’t let it die :D

    But still, if I may report a few bugs.

    1. Saving a hacked form doesn’t work for me (when I make changes and click save, the form goes back to default)
    2. Geo Mashup releases after version 1.2.10 doesn’t work (the map won’t load)

    Again, great work, and thanks for coming back to work on plugin, we all appreciate it.

    Regards, Igor.

    I’m sure you are aware, but the behavior that I am seeing is that after you build the form uing the widget, it does not save. You can preview the form, but as soon as you save it, all the fields move from the form back to the available fields column.

    Desr Sir:
    Tdo mini forms 0.13.8 is still some problems with my WP3.0. “Who am I” cannot be added. And form hacker can not be used.

    no worries bro,

    we know you will make TOD work on wp3 soon :)

    Cheers

  15. I have committed v0.13.9 to WordPress/extend so it should be appearing shortly. This will resolve some widgets not saving. If you want to know why it was happening, you can check the changelog. :)

    FYI: Form Hacker is working in WP3.0. It wasn’t broken by the upgrade. If you’re having problems with Form Hacker you may be having problems with your DB. I never found a solution to it, but I do remember someone posting on the forum some fix.

    @Igor As for Geo Mashup integration, are you using the latest Geo Mashup? If you’re not, then you may be hitting a CSS issue (which I noticed during my initial integration). Make sure your content area in your theme is big enough. Too small and it may not work (I think).

  16. Hello Mark,
    Thank you for the v0.13.9. =)
    I’m working with the plugin in this project: http://www.mundosebrae.com.br/territoriosemrede and i need to translate for portuguese. What do you think about internationalizing the plugin? Do you think about using the file “.po”?

    Sorry for my English.

    Monday, June 28, 2010 at 2:15 pm #

  17. Hi @Guilherme Aguiar, there is already a “.pot” for TDOMF available. If you create a Portugese “.po”, I can add it to the project.

    Hi Mark:

    v0.13.9. works in English.
    but It still cannot be saved if I use Chinese language. Form Hacker doesn’t work in Chinese language,too.

    Hi!

    Version 0.13.9 has a minor typo.
    when you have a hacked edit form the style id(and js) at header don’t match the id on post. Something like
    would appear within html as id=”tdomf_form2-2222″.
    As a result I can see the form at the end of the post as it never gets hidden.

    I searched a bit and found this.
    In tdomf-form.php line 1281 the ‘-’ should be ‘_’
    $form_name = ‘tdomf_form’.TDOMF_MACRO_FORMID.’-’.TDOMF_MACRO_POSTID;

    $form_name = ‘tdomf_form’.TDOMF_MACRO_FORMID.’_’.TDOMF_MACRO_POSTID;

    Worked for me and i didn’t found any consequence for changing the plugin core files.

    I get the blank screen of death when I activate 0.13.9 in wordpress 3.0 and 3.0.1. I’d really like to use the plugin! Any advice on where to begin looking? No other plugins are installed. Thanks!

    Hi Mark, I’ve extended the categories widget to support custom taxonomies. Where can I send it to you so you can see if it’s useful for TDOMF?
    Best,

    Using the latest version of both TDOMF and WordPress, I cannot save a Hacked Form; WordPress simply refreshes the page.

    Any ideas?
