[nodebb-plugin-forms] Request for feedback

@yariplus I'll give the plugin a try. Emailing might be good enough for my current purposes. I'm not familiar with saving to the NodeBB db yet, but I'm hoping to get to that soon for my own plugins. If @pitaj isn't interested in the plugin any more, maybe you should just fork it and finish it? Anyway, thanks for the info!

@yariplus So, I was actually busy, but my computer is out for about two more weeks and then I'll be able to focus more on my plugins and other projects. Sorry I can't be of much help right now.

In the meantime, if you could add some issues on Github detailing what you need done, I can start right away after I get my new PC set up.

yariplus

@pitaj Nice! I'll start working on adding tasks via github. I got a few ideas of what the final product should look like by examining some other form makers/designers. And I'll make sure the current designer still works properly on 0.7/0.8

jongarrison

Has anyone had luck with this plugin on 0.8.2? I loaded it up without any errors in the logs or in the browser console, but the admin pages don't seem to respond to input. I'm still poking around though...

yariplus

@jongarrison try one of the earlier commits before I started the redesign.

I'd really like to start working on this again, but I'm super busy right now and my other plugins are getting badly outdated...

jongarrison

@yariplus Thanks for the tip

flurryfish

looks like the development stopped on this plugin. Safe to assume not compatible with latest version?

We have a section on the form, where I would love all posts to follow a template. A form based submission would be a perfect answer

@flurryfish I don't think it actually relied on anything in nbb core, so it might just need filters renamed. I will take a look.

Thanks, appreciate the help

@yariplus just wondering if you had a chance to look into this. Thanks for all your efforts

yariplus

@flurryfish Yeah, it's definitely not usable as-is, I will take a closer look this weekend.

yariplus

Working on bringing it to functionality again. Going to take a bit though, lots of things have changed.

Giggiux

@yariplus do you need help?

@yariplus thanks for taking look into this bro

yariplus

@giggiux Thanks for the offer! At the moment no, I'm mostly fixing my ugly code and updating function signatures.

yariplus

I'm mostly done the rebuild, should be usable in another week or so.

@Giggiux Where I need the most help right now is with the less/css on the admin page. It looks ugly and there's a few bugs. Dragging an element is slow/delayed. Pop-overs don't always disappear.

faizanzahid

@yariplus thank you very much for your help in making this live again

Giggiux

@yariplus ugh, I can try something this weekend, but I don't really love css, more into the scripting part I'll let you know by monday

yariplus

@giggiux Right on man. There's still plenty of work JS side.

I need validators implemented. I'm using the forms package which has validators for the form object, but you need to do the implementation yourself (jquery etc..). Need to be on the client and server, as well as on the form builder.

I have an action setting for the forms (POST, new topic, email, etc..) but none of the functions are actually there yet.

flurryfish

@yariplus I am guessing this is a pain and I shouldn't expect this to be available anytime soon? Regardless, thanks a lot for looking into it
