[geeklog-devtalk] GL API documentation

[Dirk Haun]

Wim,

For the Plugin Developers Guide, it's probably the best thing to contact
Blaine or Tom, since they wrote it: <http://gplugs.sourceforge.net/pluginman/>

Ideally, this should one day be included with Geeklog and replace the
much too short <http://www.geeklog.net/docs/plugin.html>.



>PLG_notify_user('type_of_notification') for sending specific email


Hmm, what exactly is this supposed to do? As of Geeklog 1.3.9, plugins
can easily use COM_mail to send emails.



>PLG_render_story('story_text') for extra runtime amendments of the 

>story, f.i. adding links (glossary) or applying styles.


Sounds like an interesting idea. It could be implemented similar to what
we've introduced for extending the user profiles in 1.3.8.



>Please instruct me how to cope with these and to whom to post.


When the project site is back online (Toooony!), you could submit it as a
feature request there. Doing a prototype implementation would probably
help, too :-)



>Third, in search of examples in order to complete plugin_moderation, 

>I'm missing quite a ot in the universal plugin. I would make that up to 

>date as well.


Hmm, can't help you here. I'm not sure if there even is a plugin that
uses this.

bye, Dirk
