This extension doesn’t seem to work with the clone entries plugin. Is there any fix for this?

I get the error message “invalid entry data” when trying to save a cloned draft.

How many drafts are stored and is there a way to “clean up”?

I’ll look into this today and push a fix for the next version.

Deleting of drafts is planned for a future version. The latest version in development allows you to view previews in LG Live Look so saving drafts will be less frequent. I’m preparing a screencast today to show off the new features.

Quick question; is it possible to use an entry field as the “comma separated list of emails” used in notifying a status change?

Basically, a tell a friend field of comma separated emails used in a SAEF for entries that are Pending until Open, and when changed to Open, we’d like to notify the emails that were submitted with the SAEF.

Like using entry tags in the notification email itself, can we use entry tags in the notification emails field (ie. {tellafriend_emails}?

Hey Peter,

It’s not possible to do that at the moment. I’ll try to think of a way to add the functionality in but I can’t promise anything.

Cheers

Hi Leevi,

Thanks for the awesome extension. I have one question. Currently, permission is assigned to a specific weblog, is there a chance where the permission is set to category/entry specific?

Say I have 3 weblogs and for each weblog I have multiple categories/entries. Is there a way where I can assigned permission for a member just for that specific category/entry?

Hear from you soon. Thanks!

Deleting of drafts is planned for a future version.

Until it is implemented, would deleting the draft entries in this table work? (After backing up my database of course)

exp_nsm_entry_drafts

Love this plugin so far, stumbled across it in the forums and it was exactly what I needed for a current project.

Thanks, John

We have installed the newest version of NSM Publish Plus version 1.1.0 and we are using version 1.6.7 of Expression Engine.

We have run into the following issues using Publish Plus:

1. If NSM Publish Plus is not enabled for a site, (we have multiple sites) the following error message is displayed in the CP:

Notice: Undefined index: kill_preview in serverpath\system\extensions\ext.nsm_publish_plus_ext.php on line 1280

2. We setup several fields with the format set to none. I discovered that if these fields contain text with characters that are not readily identified - such as the dash character created by Word - when that field data is saved with the draft, it causes an error in the CP the next time you attempt to edit that entry. After further investigation using the var_dump on the data retrieved, the Draft_Data field contains the classic black diamond with the question mark where those unreadable characters occur. The draft(s) affected are displayed with incomplete information and the following error messages are displayed in the CP:

Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 1149 of 3181 bytes in server\system\extensions\ext.nsm_publish_plus_ext.php on line 951

Notice: Undefined index: title in server\system\extensions\ext.nsm_publish_plus_ext.php on line 969

3. Attempting to preview a new entry resulted in the following error – this consistently occurs whether or not any playa fields are present. Because this is a new entry, I’m not sure why this SQL is being created, since the entry_id is not yet set:

MySQL ERROR: Error Number: 1064 Description: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘LIMIT 1’ at line 1

Query: SELECT * FROM exp_weblog_titles WHERE entry_id = LIMIT 1

4. The last item I noticed does not appear to be an issue, but the Site_ID field is not being populated in the table used to store the draft data.

I have followed the instructions contained in the documentation for NSM Publish Plus and I believe we have everything setup correctly. Is anyone else using NSM Publish Plus 1.1.0 and experiencing these same issues?

My manager is anxious to start using this feature and I need to resolve these issues first.

Anyone? Leevi? Is this the proper place to go for Commercial support for this Extension?

Curious about that myself.

Any news on the cloning issue? My site relies very heavily on this function and not to have it is a big problem.

Thanks.

When an entry is cloned on both ‘Save Draft’ and ‘Submit for Approval’ it comes back with ‘invalid entry data’

Is anyone having issues with the latest version (1.1.0) and IE7? Everything works perfectly in Firefox… but pretty much everything is seeming to break down in IE7. Notifications don’t go out. Drafts don’t get saved. Live View doesn’t work. Entry Status always goes to close.

Hopefully it is just an easy fix… or maybe an extension incompatibility.

Anyone else test it out and have issues?

Otherwise I do love this extension!!!!
