Does this module allow for Iframe embedding? It is working with simple photos and html code but it doesn't work with html embedding code from Soundcloud or Mixcloud.

For example posting this code gets me nothing in the preview.

[code="html4strict"]

www.mixcloud.com]; frameborder="0" height="180" width="660">

www.mixcloud.com]; target="_blank" style="color:#808080; font-weight:bold;">Transitions with John Digweed and Nick Warren (2015) by www.mixcloud.com]; target="_blank" style="color:#808080; font-weight:bold;">John Digweed on www.mixcloud.com]; target="_blank" style="color:#808080; font-weight:bold;"> Mixcloud

[/code]

thanks guys.

Just for others to know.

I went to admin panel>under global settings I clicked on cache settings and made the change there.

Preferably in reverse order ;-) (first create the writable directory and then change the admin interface setting)

like maurice said:
"If this is the case, then you could change the cache directory path for your Phorum install to a different directory to prevent the collision."

Go to the admin area, general settings and change the cache path there. e.g. to "./cache" (yes, with the . in the beginning) and make the cache directory in your phorum install writable, e.g. by using your ftp client and its chmod function.

Hi there,
It's a shared server on dreamhost, so it could be. I wouldn't be able to change that though. I went into my own root and don't have a /tmp folder

Is there any way around this? This is the only mod that doesn't work after the I updated everything to the latest versions.

The error specifically complains about the directory /tmp/html_purifier not being writable. Looking at the HTML purifier code, it seems you can get this message in case /tmp/html_purifier does exist, but isn't writable for the web user.

Are there other websites running on the same server and using this module in Phorum? What could be the case, is that some other server already created the directory using a different user, making it inaccessible for your site's user (just a big guess) If this is the case, then you could change the cache directory path for your Phorum install to a different directory to prevent the collision.

hey there guys,
so I finally got around to upgrading to 3.0 but I keep getting this error

Warning: Directory /tmp/html_purifier not writable, please chmod to 777 in /xxx/xxx/iloveqatar.net/forum/mods/html/htmlpurifier-4.0.0-standalone/HTMLPurifier.standalone.php on line 11159

I'm probably being thick, but the read-me didn't say much about changing permissions and I tried changing everything in the folder to 777 but no luck.

Hi,
This module seems to be so powerful and friendly that I am wondering, how can I start using some WYSIWYG Editor along with it. Is it possible? How can I do it? (May be this is a wrong place to post such a query or may be the right place.) With this module the fear of ill-formed html would be gone, and with a WYSIWYG HTML Editor editing will also become easy and clutter free!
Regards,
Sreenadh

Phil, I overlooked this message in the list. Thanks for the updates that you did. They surely sound useful to me and I am very willing to incorporate those into the repository for this module.

The legacy messages don't sound like an issue to me. Apparently, those users weren't meant to use HTML in the first place. The same "issue" would occur when downtuning the permissions after a while.

Hi,
I have updated our group with "html.proposed.3.0.zip" and it is working fine. Thanks for this excellent module.

@Maurice:

I wanted to support HTML in messages only for a very narrow set of use cases, and since this module operates in an all-or-nothing mode, I added some enhancements to provide me (administrator) with the ability to control which users or groups have permission to use HTML code in messages. It has been working great for me and so I want to make it available here. The core of the module is still "HTML in Messages" so it doesn't make sense to me to create yet another module that does the same thing but only with optional permissions. So I have attached it here and feel free to use it as a next release for HTML in Messages. But if you would rather it be its own module, let me know and I'll release it that way.

In a nutshell:
The rules processing of my module is only enabled once the administrator goes into the module's admin settings and configures the permissions. Until then, it remains in the legacy mode of "everyone has permission". But once my version's rule processing is enabled, the new default permission is only administrators can enter HTML. Admins can choose to enable HTML for everyone, or for users with some additional optional conditions like moderators, members of groups, members of a group attached to the active forum, days since registration, and number of posts. One cool optional condition is tied to the User Tagging module (if it is present): conditions can be defined that say a user must be tagged by designated user tagging rules in order to be allowed to enter HTML.

So basically, rather than a forum-centered enabling/disabling of HTML, I took the route of a user/group permission scheme, which might be a little more complicated, but allows admins to control which forums get HTML-ified by configuring groups and user-group memberships, or by tagging users. I would discourage "anyone" permissions for HTML, although that is an option in my version.

On the presentation side, I hooked into posting_custom_action and process the conditions for posting HTML, and store an authorization flag true or false in the message meta structure which is now checked in the existing format hook: if the authorization is false, the HTML is not restored. If the authorization flag is not present (legacy messages pre-dating my version) then the format hook proceeds just like it did before, so my version is backwards compatible with legacy messages. As I typed that it just occurred to me that I didn't account for users editing their legacy messages though...

Anyway, here it is....

nope.

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

sazaraki — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 15:28:29 -0500

does this module allow for permissions? so that it can be added to a group (admin) or a single user can have HTML posting privs, but not anyone else?

Sorry I didn't make myself clear. I was referring to this code:

[code="javascript"]

[/code]

Works really well but like I said I was wondering if a method of bypassing the above for certain links can be had.

Maurice Makaay — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 16:53:08 -0600

By not using a target in the code? This is the thread for the HTML module. As far as I know, you provide the HTML code here, so you control what the hrefs look like. If the code is adding targets on its own, then you'll have to dig into the HTML Purifier library to see if it's configurable or so.

This code works perfectly - but! I am now showing downloadable trial software titles and it would be a heck of a lot neater if the trial download links didn't open in a new window. This is a bit messy as the window collapses then for the download to occur. Anyway for me to stop certain links from opening a new window?

Try adding:

&& !ahref.match("javascript")

to the line:

if (!ahref.match("http://bluesplayer-shops.hopto.org") && !ahref.match("http://bluesplayer.co.uk") && !ahref.match("http://ukshopping-hopto.org") ) {

Hi

[code="javascript"]

[/code]

The above code works great but I have a problem with javascript return to previous page code. The above code stops it working. The code I am referring too is this:

[code="javascript"]
[Go Back 1]
[/code]

You can see this occuring here:

[bluesplayer.co.uk]

Is there any way to make the 2 scripts work together?

Hi

Where & is in an url it is being added too so that it shows as &. This is causing my links to fail. Any idea how to fix it?

Regards

Edit: I notice this is related to the plugin to embed images. The urls added to the images are displaying the extra code.

Thomas Seifert — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 04:33:45 -0600

all of the html in a message body is working, irregardless if its in formatted code blocks or not.
The module is global, it can't be disabled per forum (at least no in the interface, probably with another module).

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

Bluesplayer — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 04:20:32 -0600

Does this module affect the fomatted code box as the code I am entering in as examples seems to be running instead of displaying? If it is can it be disabled for certain forums?

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

Bluesplayer — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 08:32:45 -0600

1st Question: Yes the first site is opening new windows - 2nd site is ok.

2nd Question: Yes I altered the domain name as the UK Shopping was to be a separate site initially but on reflection I decided to use the same look as my main site and incorporate the shopping into it. The new name has bluesplayer in it so it doesn't look so out of place. The UK Shopping domain still works though.

UPDATE: Apparently the UK Shopping domain doesn't work! I will sort that out now.

Working now. The domains are free ones off no-ip and I hadn't ticked the box on the software I have on my computer to update the ipaddress of the domain.

Another UPDATE!

Sorry! I can see now why you referred to UK Shopping as it was the domain on the first part of the code and not my new domain. Now I have altered the domain setting the code works! Doh! Cheers.

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

Joe Curia — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 08:27:11 -0600

A couple of questions:
First, this if clause is designed to ignore to the listed sites, thus the "and" is necessary (ignore site 1 links and site 2 links and . . .) so can I assume that by "working" for the second site you mean that the links to that site are being ignored by this code and by "ignoring the first site" you mean that links to the first site are actually not being ignored and thus opening in a new window?

Second, I noticed that in other posts you have changed your sites domain from the ukshopping site to bluesplayer-shops. Did you change this bit of code to reflect the new domain?

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

Bluesplayer — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 08:16:08 -0600

Oops there is a problem with the code. It seems that only the 2nd site is working. The code is ignoring the first site now!

[code="php"]
if (!ahref.match("[ukshopping.hopto.org"];) && !ahref.match("[myothersite.com"];) ) {
[/code]

Shouldn't the code be 'or' or something?

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

Bluesplayer — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 07:22:36 -0600

Works great! Thanks

Re: Module: HTML in Messages

Joe Curia — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 07:05:23 -0600

To skip multiple domains, try:

if (!ahref.match("http://ukshopping.hopto.org") && !ahref.match("http://myothersite.com") ) {

You can add as many

&& !ahref.match("http://myothersite.com")

as you need.

Bluesplayer — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 06:46:21 -0600

Hi

Is there a way to add an extra domain to this code?

[code="php"]

[/code]

I just noticed that my top links are all opening new windows as they are pointing to a different domain when reading the post.
