This extension seems broken on beta 13, when posting a previously created draft, nothing happens, it's just gone. No error.

IanM

0.1.6

Improve UI of using drafts:

Load drafts list when opening the composer; this way, we avoid a situation where a new draft is being saved, no drafts have been loaded, and the user is presented with an empty draft list in the header.
Load draft count on page load separately from the draft list itself: this means that the count is always accurate.
Don't close the composer when saving drafts; this is behavior not used in any other product (imagine if Microsoft Word shut down whenever you pressed save).
When a new draft is created, save it as the composer component's stored draft, so that future saves will be treated as updates
Prevent duplicate save messages; ensure that the save message disappears and reappears when updating a draft so that the user clearly sees that the change was successsful, and not a left-over save message
Right now, the drafts dropdown is only shown if there are already cached drafts saved. However, this doesn't really work, since drafts aren't downloaded by default. Now, the dropdown button will always be shown, and the list of drafts will be loaded by clicking on it, as always.

Updating

composer require fof/drafts
php flarum cache:clear

Thank you @askvortsov for your work on this! 🙂

So there has a bug in 0.1.6.
Guest will receive the No Permission error while plugin trying to pull drafts list when they not logged in.

askvortsov

I'll open a PR to fix this, must have been introduced accidentally with the UI changes yesterday.

fakruzaruret

askvortsov Could you give an avarage time for the next release?

We get No Permission error 😀 I follow your improvements on github and you are great. Also next release solve the all problems.

askvortsov Can't uninstall it. It says something went wrong error.

sakibarifin

Can't remove the fof drafts extension via bazaar. When I try to remove it, it says something went wrong, please try again after refreshing the page. I tried that several times but the same error is returned. How do I solve this?

sakibarifin I guess migrations can't be run down (eg removing tables). You can either use composer directly or wait for the issue to be resolved. Filing an issue on the repository would speed up the process of getting issues resolved.

askvortsov

Hi! I'm not a member of FoF, so I don't know exactly when the next release is coming out, but there's only one PR left to merge, and that's ready for review. Hopefully that should be done soon. The release will also fix the migration issue.

0.1.7 - Features Galore!

This release brings a bunch of new features, UI improvements, and bug fixes.

💾 Drafts will now autosave every 6 seconds (this interval can be adjusted in user preferences) if any fields in the composer have change. Autosave can be disabled in user preferences.
⬅️ Full support for reply drafts and Byobu Private Discussion drafts has been added
⏰ The ability to schedule drafts to post at a later date has been added. This can be disabled by admins in site settings. To make this actually work, admins will need to enable a cron job to run the laravel scheduler script. Please note that validation DOES NOT happen at the time of scheduling: If your draft is invalid (missing content, not enough tags, not enough private recipients, etc...), it will fail to post, and an error message explaining the validation error will be shown next time you check your drafts. This will only happen after the scheduled time.
📱 Buttons for saving your draft have been added to the composer on mobile.
🗯️ Intrusive alerts have been repoaced with a nicer save button loading animation. This is largely to make autosave more user friendly and avoid spamming alerts.
❌ The annoying permission denied bug for non-logged-in users has been fixed, thanks to @wloot for that great fix!
🗑️ The UI for deleting drafts and closing the composer has been improved, see a full list of changes here

You'll need to disable & re-enable the extension for the scheduling assets to be copied over.

0.1.8

I just noticed a bug,
If you save drafts;
On desktop screen size, saved Drafts shows up on NotificationGrid and is working. But,
On phone screen size which involves drawer routing to ./drafts , the number of saved drafts is shown on the icon but it says "You haven't saved any drafts".

I enlarged the screen and noticed that the problem is that Drafts doesn't show up on routing to ./drafts

Recreate the problem on your end, by;
Saving a Draft, then route to yourforum.com/drafts, you would see "You haven't saved any drafts".

Operator This is due to some changes I made yesterday to improve the draft loading mechanic - previously they all loaded right after the page loaded. It will be fixed soon.

Operator When editing post reply that has already been posted before, the auto draft feature automatically saves a new version with empty discussion title.

I've opened a PR to fix both these issues here: FriendsOfFlarum/drafts27, thanks for reporting!

Operator

🤗 Many Thanks 👏🏽datitisev

datitisev Another bug, I don't know if it is a known issue as the previous one. But,

When editing post reply that has already been posted before, the auto draft feature automatically saves a new version with empty discussion title.
I thought pressing Send without filling any other details would update the reply, but, No, instead it tries to create a new discussion, and when I want to close the Composer editor, the close button becomes disabled.

ornanovitch

Thanks for those wonderful updates !
Unfortunately I have a « something went wrong » at the first auto-save attempt. The log is very long...
Does this seems easy to fix ?

IanM

ornanovitch you need to run

php flarum migrate
