Plugin: [REL] Signature
-
Hi,
Heres my first plugin which was pretty much copied from the Avatar plugin, but hey, now I can contribute my 2 cents
(Thanks to the guy who made that too)To install you must open functions.php (in bb-includes, line 1388) and add:
'sig' => array(0, __('Signature'))to the end (before last closing bracket)
This is the code:
<?php/*
Plugin Name: Signature
Author: veb
Version: 1.0
*/
function post_sig() { // function to use in page php to get the sig
if ( get_sig( get_post_author_id() ) )
echo get_sig( get_post_author_id() );
}
function get_sig ( $id ) { //function to return sig lfrom database
global $bbdb, $bb_current_user;
$user = bb_get_user( $id );
$profile_info_keys = get_profile_info_keys();
if ( $id && false !== $user )
if ( is_array( $profile_info_keys ) )
foreach ( $profile_info_keys as $key => $label ) {
if ( 'sig' == $key )
return $user->$key;
}
}
?>
Save as bb-signature.php in my-plugins.
Have fun

“or there is a large demand.”
well, I’m not large but I do demand
“It’s very easy to apply filters to the signature just like the post text, smiles, auto-close tags and a whole bunch of other tweaks and security could be easily added.”
and all these too
Dumb question: What should I add to post.php?
Nothing. My version of this plugin requires absolutely no template or core edits. It’s why I made it
It’s optional to put the style in your style.css to prevent an extra stylesheet but that’s trivial and not necessary.
Note that I’ve turned on the default options of “one signature per user per page” and “only moderators and above can have signatures”. You can edit this in the plugin (change “moderate” to “participate”)
There are still many, many things not checked in this, like they could trick it to post 100 lines in a signature or use a HUGE image if you have “allow images” installed. This for now comes down to moderators doing their job.
Thanks guys, I figured it out.
Dumb Question #2: How does one use quotes or apostrophes in their signatures? Forward slashes are inserted before each instance.
By having ck stripslashes on it. It seems to be something he’s gotta fix.
None of these are dumb questions … just ask ’em and don’t worry about it.
Thanks fel!
In the meantime, I’ll just edit HTML special characters in my user’s signatures.
Well why wait for tomorrow when you can put off other work and do it today
I now have per-post signature disable ability on v0.07 though sadly you must edit two templates to get that ability, there is no way to hook the form from the plugin, at least none that I can find in the API.
What’s really ironic is that I will most likely never use this plugin on my own forums, ha!
