jwFacebook Comments 2.0!

User Rating: / 78
PoorBest 

As I come up to the last few projects I will probably be working on before I take a very long break (or rather crawling through trenches and being yelled at by the Boot Camp Instructors), I have taken a few hours out to work in the newest permutation of the jwFacebook Comments plugin.

And I am happy to say there are a shit load of bug fixes, some new functionality, and (tada) support for seeing comments on Blog Layout, Frontpage, and Article views! What's more, I have taken some of the functionality I wrote into the jWarlock.com version of the plugin (a great deal of it was custom) and have implemented it into this version!

New Design, New Functionality

So you may have noticed the new design utilising some interesting graphics related to both my alter-ego jWarlock and my Scottish heritage.

But more interestingly you should have noticed the inclusion of some jQuery extensions being used to hide the Facebook Commenting section into a lightbox system.

Take a look, open the full article view and click on the 'Facebook Comments' link at the bottom to get some new ideas of how to position your commenting Cool

I have had a few people email me recently about configuration settings for the jwFacebook Comments plugin. To be honest it has been a great deal of time since I wrote the plugin, and time is a premium for myself right at the moment.

However I have taken a few screenshots of the Facebook App settings I recommend (if you are using the plugin without a true Facebook App running), and a few screenshots of my own plugin configuration (which you see running here on this site).

Joomla 1.6 Alpha

A fair few Tweets have been flying around recently around the Joomla Core Team's progress on the Joomla 1.6 Alpha release.

It just so happens you can download it now, however there are errors. But it will give those of us who are curious to see what is and isn't working a whirl.

The most notable thing I can note on at the moment is the inclusion of the ACL layer. Meaning, you can now set permissions for individual user groups - in effect User Group A can access Virtuemart, and User Group B cannot.

Very cool stuff, and I will be keeping an eye out on it for future developments.

   

jwFacebook Comments 1.5

I have finished a base up rewrite for the jwFacebook Comments plugin. This new rewrite gets the plugin ready for integrating the jwFB component I am working on (in effect the component will bridge the gap between what you see already, and what the Facebook API does).

Also.... I have fixed the Allowed Sections and Allowed Categories logic, and the { jwcomments-off } is also working too!

I'd like to take this opportunity to as well to thank everyone for supporting the project. You know who you are ;-)

The whitelabel version of this plugin is also available for the support subscribed people too.

There is lots more to come :)

   

So what's going on?

It has been a while since I last updated something on the jWarlock website, and for the most part it is because I have been busy working, and then on the side working on my physical fitness.

So what is the long end of the story?
