[Release] Update: PunBB Text/File Editor plugin 1.1.2 (Page 1 of 3)

Very nice CodeXP. Thank you. I think though, that I would prefer to restrict its use to a particular area of my site.  Perhaps a directory with files NOT capable of breaking pun.

I don't know if this is effective or not but it "SEEMS" to work for me.

// Let's configure what directory we'll be working with initially
$curdir = './files';

I really think you have done an excellent job with the AP interface.  It's easy and intuitive to use.

Installed!

CodeXP.... fair play mate.
I have been using a web2ftp site for even the smallest of edits... So this is a very VERY VERY useful plugin. Thank you.

suggestion:

when editing a file have it say something like... 
"Editing file: filename.php  in  .../website/subdir/"

maybe a "Download file" option too?

@Dr. Jeckyl: I'll probably add that in the next release...along with a file backup function (meaning it'll keep a backup of any file you edit)

Happy to see someone finding this useful

Oh, and the next version should not be that far away from release now, so here's a screenshot of the backup function I've added. Everytime you save a file, a backup copy will be created, which you can restore by just pressing a button The pink rows indicated that the backed up copy is identical to the one currently loaded in the editor (md5 checksum match). The table itself is displayed below any file you're currently editing.

EDIT:

Almost forgot to mention, I've improved the file browser navigation a bit as well. It now displays your current location as before, but you can now click the folder names to back to whatever level you wish.

Yes, that's exactly what happens It creates an a new entry in a backup index file, with the filename, original path, time etc, and creates a backup of the original files content, before it finally writes the new file. Quite useful actually

Thanks Rickard, I'll be sure to do so

I've just prepared a new archive of version 1.1 of this plugin. It works fine now, so I decided to release it now. The code could still use some cleanup, but I don't think there should be any (serious) bugs.

Some changes from v1.0:
* Backup & restore function!
* Improved navigation in the file browser.
* Ability to set allowed files to edit, even if the file extension is disallowed (example: If you've disabled editing of .php files, you could, let's say, allow editing to the config.php file). See line 47 if you want to add file to the allowed array.
* Several minor & not-so-minor changes to the code.

Installation:
1. Extract the contents of the archive to your PunBB folder.
2. Set write permissions to the ./plugins/AP_Text_Edit_Backups/ folder (chmod 0777).
3. Add the contents of the supplied stylesheet to your existing one(s).

Let me know if there's any problems, or if you have any suggestions. I did not add a download file function (yet), as the headers are already sent out by header.php, thus causing some problems doing it the way I intended.

CodeXP: E-mail it to me when/if you're done. I'll probably forget otherwise.

@Rickard: I'll do so, but I think it would be best with some more feedback first from those testing it, just so that there won't be any nasty surprises

@habana: Well, although not exactly the same, that's kinda what the backup/restore function does really...

Hehe, don't worry about it

atleast ported to 1.3.
