Is it possible to have Admin Plugins? Or are plugins only for the Site?
What I want is to have a notification system (not email) on the Admin side very much like Facebook. The trigger for such notifications is from the Site.
I've scanned through these events for Plugins and implemented a very simple content plugin (just testing onContentAfterTitle) for Site only.
Questions
Do these events also apply to the Admin side?
Is it possible to have an Admin Plugin that selects notifications from the database and displays them on screen?
Or if you guys can recommend an existing extension, that would be of great help. Thanks
The plugins are available for both side admin and site.
the difference is based on the events used inside the plugin.
for example onContentAfterSave event on the content plugin trigger when an article is saved.
its available in both side when an admin saves articles it trigger, also from site users post articles then also it will trigger.
Some events that are applied only on the site like
onContentPrepare,onContentAfterTitle, onContentBeforeDisplay,onContentAfterDisplay etc
so which event is choose based on that the plugin works!.
The notification plugins you are looking for is what does exactly ? then only we can suggest an event or plugin like its related to article, user or something else.
Hope its make sense..

I have a WordPress website that I use to introduce our Wedding company. I want to add the functionality that I can create/generate login credentials for each of my client. And when I give them the credentials and a url, they can login on that url using those credentials which can redirect them to a custom made page that displays only their photos/videos as a gallery.
Can you suggest how I can add this function to my site? Are there some plugins that can help me achieve this in free?
Thanks
I'd look into buddypress area for an MVP. At least you get decent profiles out of the box and can build some logic around private pages / communities there. Of course, it's totally possible to do with any membership plugin too, but they all are too bloated for my taste. Better try it with BuddyPress and then develop from scratch with the logic you want.
i manage my company website which runs WordPress. There are several chapters across the USA. I have pages setup for them so that people can view our chapters content. I was wondering, instead of them emailing me the changes they want. Is there a way where i can allow the users to only be able to edit a single page, without giving them access to the entire WordPress admin page/ website.
I would be willing to pay for a commercial plug if this option exists. Thanks for reading this.
There are Various Free / Paid Solution will be available for this based on your Model You can Choose any one of the following or there could be many other ways to get this done these are some of the way
You Can make them Editor and The Owner of the Chapter which they blong so in this way they will not have any rights to Edit other Chapters they will be only able to edit the Chapters which they own.To restrict other access in this case you can use plugin like User Role Editor and many other available at Wordpress repo.
You can also customize plugin like WP User Frontend to achieve the front end edit possible.
A Complete Custom Solution where use need not to login they simply submit the Changes which will be logged as article draft and you can later review and approve.
i think there will be much more way but it will be completely based on your applications nature so hope this helps to you.
I'm developing a site that allows signed-in users to create blogs posts. There needs to be an option to make it either public or password protected. It's being designed to allow users to stay on the front end of the site, which is absolutely necessary. I'm currently using DJD Site Post, which gives other options for post visibility in the admin console. I'm open to any other plugin, even, as long as I can upload videos using that plugin. Any plugins, code snippets, or other items of interest I can use? Thanks!
Are you trying to create your own module for user submitted posts? If yes, then please consider using existing plugins for the same purpose. It will cut down your work to nothing.
Visit http://wordpress.org/plugins/front-end-publishing/
This plugin provides a new front-end publishing module for registered users, you can control if the post gets published immediately or not.
I have a Joomla 1.5.26 website in which I publish events and conferences dictated by a company. Those are handled by categories (cities).
Until now, I follow this workflow:
Publish the event (by entering a new registry) or duplicating an
entry (if apply) with a component called Simple Calendar. It creates
in the frontend a page for each event and handle those by categories.
Then, because of the customization of my template, I have to publish an article in the front page with all the information of the current events. Double work.
Last: Go to a system (based in php and connected to my joomla database) that I created to manage the newsletter. I have to write again all the information of the events in a TinyMCE field and then choose in a select box the group of users, by state (I override the jos_user database and added "State" field. I also override the registration page, so users can select their state of origin).
In that system, I also create a page that let me send a newsletter to all the users in jos_user.
What I need:
I need to simplify this Workflow. I want to continue using a CMS (I'm thinking in Wordpress).
I need to migrate all the users registered in Joomla (with it custom field).
I will like to publish the events one time, and have the possibility to send a newsletter of upcoming events or category upcoming events to a specific group of user or to all of them.
What I have tried:
Wordpress + Event Espresso: this solution didn't work for me, cause' it didn't allow me to handle the newsletter as I need.
What I don't need:
A payment system.
Attendee Manager.
You might want to try out this plugin which I have been working for a long time. It's a good plugin to get the work done.
How can I let the visitors publish a post without registration in wordpress ?
Any programming modifications suggestions ?
TDO Mini Forms will do what you what you want without too much programming, if any. Here's part of the description from the plugin page:
This plugin allows you to add highly customisable forms that work with your Wordpress Theme to your website that allows non-registered users and/or subscribers (also configurable) to submit and edit posts and pages. New posts are kept in "draft" until an admin can publish them (also configurable). Likewise edits can be kept be automatically kept as revisions until an admin approves them. It can optionally use Akismet to check if submissions and contributions are spam. TDO Mini Forms can be used to create "outside-the-box" uses for Wordpress, from Contact Managers, Ad Managers, Collaborate Image Sites, Submit Links, etc.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the standard WordPress settings will allow you to open up the comments. Assuming you're using at least version 2.8, go to Dashboard > Settings > Discussion. Here you'll find the standard options, try this combo ('yes' and 'no' indicate if the boxes are checked):
Other comment settings:
no - Users must be registered and logged in to comment
Before a comment appears:
yes - An administrator must always approve the comment
no - Comment author must have a previously approved comment
Try this on for size ;-)
WordPress does have a 'post by email' feature:
WordPress can be configured to use
e-mail to post to a blog. To enable
this functionality, you need to:
Create a dedicated e-mail account to be used solely for posting
to your blog,
Configure WordPress to access that account, and
Configure WordPress to publish messages from the e-mail account
You can blog by e-mail using most
standard e-mail software programs or a
Weblog Client -- a program
specifically designed to send posts
via email.
Link to the documentation: http://codex.wordpress.org/Blog_by_Email
For this purpose, you can use the following plugins: gravity forms (one of the best, but not free) post from site and quick post widget.
TDO forms is a waste of time, in my opinion: it's very difficult to use and to learn.
