Names of plugins in web interface uses output of getDisplayName directly
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:37:04 UTC
Changes between v5.4 and v6 changed the handling of 'getDisplayName' for plugins. The new behavious simply passes back the token, not the localisation. However... if a plugin registers a web interface... it's entry on the 'home' page of the web interface displays it's token, not the localisation of it's token.
do you mean the server home page? or the home page of the plugin's custom webpages?
Server homepage. It looks like this, currently: <Settings> * <Settings Items> <Plugins> * ALIENBBC_PLUGIN <Help> * <Help Items> Before I had to change the getDisplayName() function to return the token rather than the expanded form, that would have read something like: 'AlienBBC v<whatever>', instead of ALIENBBC_PLUGIN.
Created attachment 249 [details] stringify plugin additional links This patches the home page for Fishbone, Default and Lite. other skins may still need this, but I'll take care of them too once this one is confirmed.
fixed in 6.0 for EN, Default, Fishbone, and NBMU. These are all that have their own home.html for displaying plugin links.
There are 536 bugs in the database with targets of '---' that were fixed prior to new year 2006. I am setting them to targets of 6.2.1 to keep them from showing up in my queries.
