MOST WANTED NEW PLUGINS

  1. A new TABLE plugin that will let me define:
  • Column width
  • Summary text

SPLIT is much better than TABLE, try it. I think you'll be impressed! - Damian
Yes, but... a SPLIT is to create columns of text --- a TABLE is for tabular data. For accessiblity purposes, you cannot use a SPLIT to present tabular data. I simply would like a method to pass HTML attributes; similiar to the ability to pass an ALT attribute within an {IMG} wiki element.
SPLIT uses a html table for its output, you can now as of 1.9 use three @ signs to start a new row ๐Ÿ˜Š - Damian
So how do you assign table headings with SPLIT?

  1. What about a plugin to change the font size of the text. Hope its not a silly idea...

Available right here already ๐Ÿ˜‰

  1. I would like to use a CatSpider plugin:


I mean, a plugin which allows you to show objects in any category. Like a spider crawling the categories-tree !

So it should behave as the PluginCategory does, but in a fully customizable way. Example:

Image
Copy to clipboard
{CATSPIDER (-2, 2, 3)}{CATSPIDER}


How should it work?

Well, supose you are in a particular branch of your category tree and you want to display any objects located in another branch, let's say one of your cousin categories expressed as (-2, 2, 3) from your branch path.

First you will move to your granfather (-2) branch. Now you select his second child (2), i.e one of your oncles. Finally the plugin will show objects belonging to his third child (3) - that is your cousin, isn't it?

I think such a customizable category plugin would be really usefull when you run a fully categorised portal, as it happens when you try to offer some semantic sense for your visitors.
