short.ShortStory

[Faizan]

This is an amazing plugin FI-DD. Extremely simple and perfect!

[marcusmagalhaes]

not working... the image not show .... I want show image, but not count characters..

FI-DD.. You might wanna update this plugin to

Code: Select all

<?php
/*
Plugin Name:   Short.ShortStory
Plugin URI:      http://cutenews.ru
Description:   Adds a {tag} to the templates to show n characters of the Short Story.
Version:      1.0
Author:         FI-DD
Author URI:   http://english.cutenews.ru/forum/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2
*/

add_filter('news-entry', 'shortShortStory');
function shortShortStory($output) {
   global $row, $output;
   preg_match('/{sShortStory\|(\d+)}/i', $output, $temp);
      $short_tmp = strip_tags($row['short']);
      $row['short'] = $short_tmp;
   $output = preg_replace('/{sShortStory\|(\d+)}/i', strlen($row['short']) > $temp[1] ? substr($row['short'], 0, $temp[1]).'...' : $row['short'], $output);
   $output = run_filters('news-entry-content', $output);
   return $output;
}

add_filter('template-variables-active', 'shortShortStoryTemplate');
add_filter('template-variables-full', 'shortShortStoryTemplate');
function shortShortStoryTemplate($template) {
   $template['{sShortStory|n}'] = 'Shortens the Short Story to "My short story ..." (n = number of characters)';
   return $template;
}
?>

This way it gets rid of all HTML before counting. So it won't ever screw up your page

[marcusmagalhaes]

the short story is even counting the numbers of images link (<img width="70" height="53" border="0" align="left" alt="" style="width: 70px; height: 53px;" src="/XXXX/XXX/XXX/XXX/XXX/ic_camara.gif" />), can we exclude the images link from the count?

Hmm try this:

Code: Select all

<?php

*/

add_filter('news-entry', 'shortShortStory');
function shortShortStory($output) {
      global $row, $output;
      preg_match('/{sShortStory\|(\d+)}/i', $output, $temp);
        $short_tmp = ereg_replace("/<([^<>]*)>/", "",  $row['short']);
      $output = preg_replace('/\<img(.*?)\>/si', '', $output);
      $output = preg_replace('/{sShortStory\|(\d+)}/i', strlen($row['short']) > $temp[1] ? substr($row['short'], 0, $temp[1]).'...' : $row['short'], $output);
      $output = run_filters('news-entry-content', $output);
      return $output;
   }

add_filter('template-variables-active', 'shortShortStoryTemplate');
add_filter('template-variables-full', 'shortShortStoryTemplate');
function shortShortStoryTemplate($template)
{
   $template['{sShortStory|n}'] = 'Shortens the Short Story to "My short story ..." (n = number of characters)';
   return $template;
}
?>

I'm not sure about the syntax so it needs to be tested, there might
be other variations but I can't test it now so if it doesn't work tell me
and I'll try to play with it, hope it'll help

Edit: oops i had a mistake, fixed

This one will work

add_filter('news-entry', 'shortShortStory');

function strip_tags_content($text) {
    $htmlstrip = preg_replace('@<(\w+)\b.*?>.*?</\1>@si', '', $text); // Strips the HTML
    $bbstrip = preg_replace('#\[(.*?)\](.*?)\[/(.*?)\]#si', '', $htmlstrip); // Strips BBCode, you need to strip it cause bbcode will turn into html and therefore - if not taken care of - could potentially screw your page up
    return $bbstrip;
}

function shortShortStory($output) {
   global $row, $output;
   preg_match('/{sShortStory\|(\d+)}/i', $output, $temp);
   
      $short_tmp                         = strip_tags_content($row['short']);

   $temp[1]                           = $temp[1] + $add;

   $output                              = preg_replace('/{sShortStory\|(\d+)}/i', strlen($row['short']) > $temp[1] ? substr($row['short'], 0, $temp[1]).'...' : $row['short'], $output);

   return $output;
}

add_filter('template-variables-active', 'shortShortStoryTemplate');
add_filter('template-variables-full', 'shortShortStoryTemplate');

function shortShortStoryTemplate($template) {
   $template['{sShortStory|n}']            = 'Shortens the Short Story to "My short story ..." (n = number of characters)';
   return $template;
}

/* NOTE:    Function is still incomplete. {nl} should somehow be accounted for. If you got multiple
         paragraphs you use more space then when you don't. Somehow that should matter, but it does'nt yet.
         
         To make it complete it should count the number of {nl} in $bbstrip and then multiply that amount
         with a - yet to determine - agreeable amount of charactars(depends on the amount of charactars that fit in one line).
         
         That amount needs to be deducted from $temp[1].
         
         LOL the only person who probably understands what i'm saying is FI-DD, so cheers mate :P I can't figure it out
         she is al yours.

I need put in short-story only image, without text in a section of my site... in my short-story i have a image and text, but when put {sShortStory|n} I want only image...


<img align="left" width="133" height="100" alt="" src="http://www.sinpojud.org.br/UserFiles/Image/%7B894C0979-D601-43E9-B5F3-C65A2609158F%7D_bandeira_do_brasil.bmp" />No dia 21 de outubro as atividades....

I had the exact same problem a while ago.
You don't have to change any core files in CNR
Just give a class to an element where you don't want to see the images.
Take a look at my site.
http://bit.ly/91ev80
When you scroll down, you'll see a headline with these words in it:

Laatste nieuws: Is e-mail achterhaald in het tijdperk van Twitter, SMS

This is a short line of an article in the news section. The original article has an image in it.
So i made:

Code: Select all

<div class="no_image"><img><p>Your news article...</p></div>

And in your style sheet i did:

Code: Select all

.no_image img{ display:none; }

But be sure you make a unique class. Because you don't want effect something else on the website, right?
It's pretty easy actually.

Nice and simple solution there smart use of a css

Nice and simple solution there smart use of a css

css is really wonderfull if you know what to do.
with css3 there are many new possibilities. Unfortunately there are some browsers where there is no suport for it yet.
With good css design we even can make tabbed content, accordions, text shadows etc
A while ago these things were only possible with javascripts.
if you understand the basics of css, css can be really simple, smart, lightweight and interactive

[Hawk]

CSS3 also doesn't pass validation still, which is pity.

Hello,

How I use this plugin ?
I would like do a resume of my news (just the tittle) ; Is it adaptded ?


Regards

[manu]

thank you to help me !

I don't know how I can to use this plugin ....

[DarkSlim]

thank you to help me !

I don't know how I can to use this plugin ....

You use it like this: {sShortStory|n}

you just change the n to the number of characters you want ot show in the short story,
for example: {sShortStory|70}

Will show your first 70 characters of the short story.

[manu]

Thank you ; but I don't uderstand where I write this code.

In a web page html ?

or in a story ?
