Petitions Improved

[Lalolyen]

And here we go...

http://emu.norrath.info/petitions-1.0-beta.zip

So far there is no script that will upgrade from alpha to beta... If you need manual instructions, let me know. Any features you would like to see added or optionally (by switching on or off) taken away, let me know.

Though its not in the readme.txt file yet, if you are using peq admin, change the table in include.php to peq_admin and it will authorize from your PEQ Admin install =). BUT you must add one column to the peq_admin table called "account" varchar 255.

Some screenshots (being there is not demo):

Admin System


User System

Will be posting beta2 later on =).

So far the newest features are:
1. User/Admin manager cleaned up (will be adding a delete option).
2. Addons System created*

New Addon's System
This pretty much makes the script very versitile. So far I have two addons pre-packaged:
1. News Manager - For the Allakhazam clone
2. My Petitions - Admin side petitions that are invisable to the game*

My Petitions
This is a useful little addon that will allow admins to create esclalations webside to allow a petition to be resolved without the origional admin having to drop rights to it. This may be implemented for the users later on, (at least letting them create or submit an online petition, though I don't know why they just wouldn't use email =( ).

The other thing in the works is allowing the admins to have a profile, at least for editing a signature so they don't have to go...

In eveyr petition. This of course will be an addon =).

Add-on's can be very simply added/removed by editing one file or by simply deleting them... includes/addons.php will disable preinstalled addons.

You can add your own by dropping them in the directory pages/*/ where * is "user" or "admin" . Depending on what your access level is, is which folder the addons are pulled from.

For example, you can create a page, that has javascipt of the current time, place it in admin and user and name the file time.php . Then just go to index.php?page=time and it will display your clock within the site (within the headers and footers and it will keep the authorization for the logged in user).

Beta2 is up...

[Lalolyen]

Beta3 is up

http://emu.norrath.info/petitions-1.0-beta.3.zip

That is where I rest...

1. Security has been tightened down, a lot.
2. Version information is on all files now.
3. CAPTCHA image verification for user registrations and can be disabled in the config by setting $gd_installed to 0 instead of 1. I would suggest keeping it on 1 if you have the GD library =) (thinking about doing the same for admin logins).
*EDIT*
4. The ability to preview news (before posting) and delete users has been added =).

And whos ever in charge of the wiki, please and by all means use that CAPTCHA! He he.. That system by itself is very hard for most bots to guess =),

Great job, keep up the work.
