Category: Feature request

Currently, Plugin LastMod displays the date and time a page was modified using the server's "Long Date Format" and "Long Time Format". While this is fine as a default, there are no parameters that allow this to be overridden (or at least, [https://doc.tiki.org/PluginLastMod|the documentation] doesn't show any).

I would like to suggest this be changed, and present two potential avenues to doing so:
#Provide parameters that allow to use either the 'long' format, the 'short' format, or to switch 'off' the date and time components respectively.
#Provide a parameter that allows to specify a custom date and time format string.

When using the SUGGEST FAQ feature, it would be nice to allow notification to the Admin, when a new FAQ was suggested.

Add feature to automatically build a non-editable contact list based on the registered users of a TikiWiki site

I would love if the Directory feature allowed one to enter an address. If using the directory feature for resources, this would then allow one to search for "local" resources based upon the address. e.g. Within 5 miles, 10 miles, 25 miles, etc.

The foreach / concat calculation that is possible to run on the itemList field is very useful for matching and advanced calculation. However itemList doesn't permit selection of items (row). So it is all or nothing.

We should add the same functionality on the dynamic itemList that populate on the fly (after user selection) and allow selecting all or part of the displayed items (rows). It will solve a lot of issues and avoid the creation of several trackers to force event cascading (creation / selection / report)

Use case: I need the user to select an activity then select dates from a dynamic item list (dynamic as dates are different for each activity) and on save to have the cost calculated (activity price * activity days selected). This would be easy if I could use the foreach / concat calculation thing but for now I need at least 2 trackers and 2 different steps for the users (and 3 to 4 extra fields).

When adding a folksonomy freetag to a page, it would be nice if Tiki automatically added the tags to the META KEYWORD tag for the page.

It's very easy to add manually by editing templates/footer.tpl, it would be nicer to have the _uacct saved in the database with the rest of the settings. Upgrades would be easier for site admins.

This would be similar to gmap.

Maybe this feature request could be even more generic to include easy ways to add other services and/or make it easy to use with open source apps like phpOpenTracker or phpMyVisites.

http://www.phpmyvisites.us also recommends putting the code just before /body>


Also, there should be a way to exclude certain or all groups from tracking. If I use 1 Tiki for a public website and and Intranet, I don't want my Intranet traffic to pollute my public site stats. I could just want anonymous users to be tracked.


Also, let's integrate more tightly with the new [http://www.google.com/analytics/GATCmigrationguide.pdf|ga.js] code so we can track downloaded files, and take advantage of other nice stats.

It's easy:

It will be very useful when TikiWiki is used as a combined portal & Intranet


The key (and link to permissions) is already on tiki-listpages.php (great!)

Now, a green key could indicate this page has special permissions.

And maybe even a third key (say blue) indicates that the item is inheriting permissions via the category.

You cant set it that individual polls can be set to viewed by only certain groups.

Add group watch to articles

This way we could also have all users informed about comunity news , etc. in tiki sites.

In fact, the best option would be what it's done with newsletters: subscribe that bunch of users from a group, and let them unsubscribe it they wish and when they wish, without admin action. But if no action is done, they all get the copy of the article at their email, etc.

Add Group Watches to Categories, so that ((Organic Groups)) can receive automatic notification on changes about their topics (e.g. Infrastructure Team when tracker item related with *.t.o sites).

add history & rollback capabilities to structures (record dump somehow when struct. changes, or allow saving structure dump for backup...)
This way, when the structure gets mixed by machine or human error, the structure can be rolled back to the previous state.

This way, we could be more open for registered users to manage http://doc.tikiwiki.org/Documentation (or others) without the risk of failure when nodes get moved to the wrong place (due to some bug in the code). Or due to mistake by benevolent newbies mixing things without bad intention.

UPDATE: Still desired for some LTS version. {sign user="xavi" datetime="2013-11-17T09:31:50+00:00"}

Add ip to syslog and/or action log, so that when anons (at least) are allowed to add content and it's spam (robots seem to be able to post with our current antibot captcha), there is way to identify the ip of the spammer.

So far, antibot captcha is added (in trunk, at least) to:
* wiki edit
* wiki page comments
* forum posts
* tracker item comments
* freetags
* calendar items
* newsletter subscription

The action of adding content on those features should be logged in syslog and/or action log and IP recorded.

Nowadays that JQuery has been added to 3.0svn, there is big opportunity ("low hanging fruit"?) for improving the usability of tiki spreadsheets, adding (optionally, of course) one better interface for spreadsheets through jquery plugins.

My proposal is __jQuery.sheet__:
http://plugins.jquery.com/project/sheet

http://jqueryplugins.weebly.com/jquerysheet.html

demo:
http://jqueryplugins.weebly.com/uploads/3/1/3/8/313814/jquery.sheet.html

This would improve the editing UI (for sheets), as well as big tables, if created and managed through the plugin SHEET directly from the wiki page, as drawing could be created previously.

Right now, all messages from tiki forums of the same tiki site have the same subject. Or all tracker items from different trackers from the same tiki site.
I suggest that notifications from each forum, or tracker, etc., have some label like in e-mail lists [[LABEL], that they look like:
* "[[TRACKERNAME] Current notification subject"
* "[[FORUMNAME] Current notification subject"

Or even better: allow an empty text field to be filled at tracker and forum admin screen where the admin can write the content of the label sent in subjects of notification emails from this feagture/site.

When I start the installation of Tikiwiki, I wondered why it is only in English.

Later I read the documentation and know, I should use

http://your_host/tiki/tiki-install.php?lang=XX

instead of just enter

http://your_host/tiki/

to start the installer.

But, why make this trick so difficult to be known?

It took me a while to figure out how to unsubscribe to the frequent "Make a wish" mailings. We should put this link at the bottom of those mailings:

Also, it is possible to copy paste a URL to PluginYouTube and it extracts what it needs. This should be updated to new URLs.

Problem with youtube url in the plugin.

youtube movie="alhy6RsH1h0" works

{youtube movie="alhy6RsH1h0"}

But not : youtube movie="http://youtu.be/alhy6RsH1h0"

{youtube movie="http://youtu.be/alhy6RsH1h0"}

When one of your users with permission to add calendar events created a repeated event and produces a bad entry (e.g. by the bug that creates duplicates of recurring events, but also with a wrong time setting or whatever, you possibly end up with the task of manually navigating to and deleting those events, and there is no multiple select.

If for whatever reason the event on the starting date gets lost or deleted, you may have to go through decades of future...

Therefore, a search feature would be handy, combined with multiple selection and deletion...

I find Google Alerts very useful - and they generate code in the format https://www.google.com/alerts/feeds/14597648580287617735/9526379150674439193

This URL doesn't seem to work in tiki-admin_rssmodules.php since the URL is not an XML file. I am however able to integrate a number of Google Alerts into an RSS Feed Reader like Feedly and output an OPML file - but this cant be read by rrsmodules.php either.

I gather that this module uses Zend Feed Reader and it doest have the functionality - so its probably an issue for them. Wanted to flag it as a really nice to have however - there must be lots of tiki sites out there like mine (eurafwiki.eu) which are trying to expose all available information and news on a small subject, and google alerts can really help in this. .

Thanks, Gerry Lawson

On the Admin: Freetags page, the "Number of Tags to show in Cloud:" field controls the number of tags to display in the tag cloud (such as on the tiki-browse_freetags page).

I would like a way to tell Tiki to show __all__ the tags.

For example, I would like to enter Number of Tags to show in Cloud = 0 to have Tiki show all tags.
