This plugin seems perfect for my needs, but my question is… i have coded html that I need to add to this list, much like your last screenshot which shows your list. When I paste it in, it shows the formatted html instead of the actual code. I tried adding the code tag, but that did not make the output plain text. How do I make the list display the code and not the formatted html? Thanks in advance.
I actually insert a space in the tag e.g < a> instead of <a>. Need to do that for both opening and close tag.
Another option is to use the <xmp></xmp> tags. Though this tag is deprecated, it appears to work in FF2/IE6
I’ll look into how to make this as user-friendly as possible in the next version
As I feel there’s little need to style the reminder list via html, I updated the plugin to display php and html code, unformatted
Awesome.
Gonna check it out
Actually, you might consider adding some styles. For example, I might like line 2 highlighted in red text or a red background because I’m ALWAYS forgetting it. Or at least bold.
You could add on a few options to control the text color, background color, bold, italic, and possibly a border to frame the box to increase visibility. Very simple stuff that could be a checkbox of options.
I’m just thrilled to have this Plugin so I’ll be testing it out this week. Thank you thank you thank you thank you!
Another great plugin. Thanks!
Thank you Joe and Heather
Lorelle: will do my best to come up with something
Hi, thanks for the plugin. Any chance to change the location on the post screen? Is there an id that is responsible for the order of the elements in the sidebar? I’d really like the reminder to be on top of all other boxes, so it’s visible regardless of the screen size. If you know any resources about this, I’d be grateful if you could tell me, I’d look it up and change it myself.
Thanks again,
Tobias
You can actually re-arrange the sidebar boxes by drag’n drop. However it will remember the setting for that PC, meaning if you use another PC, you have to re-arrange again.
If I’m not wrong, the order of the elements are stored inside the cookie “dbx-postmeta”. If you can figure out how to write to the cookie, you may be able to force it to the top
After I move the reminder box to the top, the value in my cookie reads “grabit:7+|0+|1+|2+|3+|4+|5+|6+&advancedstuff:0+|1-|2+”
Do you mind telling me which version of WP you are currently using? I havn’t updated my WP for some time and from the screenshots of your writing platform, it looks different from mine.
I’ve left my email, would appreciate it if you could get back to me, thanks!
Kin: I’m running on WP2.1. And WP2.2 is coming real soon
Confusing. I just downloaded Pre-Publish and Announcements. I put them both in the plugins directory. But neither appear in the Plug-ins page. All of my other plug-ins appear in the list. :S
This is a new issue to me. I’d not bother the plugin author if I even had a clue on where to begin in figuring this out.
Figures. I got it figured out moments later.
The files, directly unzipped into my plugin directory, kept the same file permissions that you put on them. So… I didn’t have access. Changed the file permissions and it all works now.
Genkisan, thanks again for your great work and cooperation to keep the web alive
Cheers,
Michael
Hello
I am Lucy, I have found your website while searching for some info at Google. Your site has helped me in a big way.
Bye
Genkisan, just in case you want to know – the plugin also works ok with WordPress 2.2.1
Thankies
Very nice plugin – already in use at my blog. Thank you!
Really great plugin, thank you very much.
Cool =)
Great! very useful for me!
支持下,太棒了,这个插件,谢谢作者!可惜我英文不好!!

Great plug-in, although you should remove the nl2br from the code (or make it optional, e.g; radio of “I’m typing real HTML, or text w/ optional HTML text decoration) as it really clashes with the idea of accepting HTML input. It makes it impossible to render a clean & compact HTML reminder box, for instance, try adding a bulleted list…
I installed it but cannot save any reminders.
I am using WP 2.91
I’m on WP 2.9.1 too. No problem on my side.
Hi
cool idea, many thanks to share it. In the fur-ture, chekck box in front of the lines will be good
Thank you for the nice plugin
1- YOu say the reminder supports HTML. I added html code into it, but the code appeared in the “new post” window, as a raw html code.
2- I dont find the option where to include the reminder. did you remove it in latest verison?
3- THere should be a possibility to edit the added reminder, instead of having to remove it and add it all over again, including styling, in order to correct a spelling mistake.
Thank you again
I suspect you have enter invalid html code into the field, maybe a missing quote or something. Go to http://al-rasid.com/wp-admin/options.php, look for “genki_pre_publish_reminder_list”, delete the value and save changes.
I’d really like the reminder to be on top of all other boxes, so it’s visible regardless of the screen size.
Thanks for this, it is really a wonderful plugin.
great plugin but any chance this will be updated for wordpress 3.0 ?
sorry, I found out it does work for 3.0. Cheers!
Awesome plugin. This makes wordpress a lot easier to work with now. Thanks!!
I am running a multi author blog. My guest blogger always forget to update there profile. This plugin is really awesome, now i will show them a notification so that they can remember it.
Hey, thanks for the plugin update, Genkisan. Nice to see it’s not dead. Not that it really needs any changes—it does just what it says on the tin pretty nicely. Thanks.
Glad you like it
This is a great plugin (I’m using WordPress 3.2.1). Can it be made to show reminders on pages as well as posts?
In genki_pre_publish_reminder.php, look for
and below it, add
Great plugin!
I’m looking for the same functionality that Brian requested here; To have the reminder show up in a Page editor view, not just a Blog Post editor view.
I followed the instructions you replied with, but it did not seem to work.
Any other possible solutions?
Using WP 3.3.0
* on another note, I found an interesting conflict with this plugin and the SIMILE Timeline plugin. If you’re using both, and if you choose to display the reminder below the post text area, something breaks and only the SIMILE Timeline input displays really large in the post editor and the default post text area is hidden. However, it appears to work fine when displaying the reminder in the sidebar.
The single quotes was not formatted correctly. Try the above code again.
Layout issue fixed in latest version. Thanks.
Genkisan – Thanks for the quick reply!
And YES! that worked. I should’ve been able to catch that myself, but overlooked it.
Appreciate your time to help me.
Can you tell me minimum WordPress Version ?
2.5 or maybe even earlier. No harm trying.
Great plugin. However, I turned on error reporting and found a warning:
Notice: has_cap was called with an argument that is deprecated since version 2.0! Usage of user levels by plugins and themes is deprecated. Use roles and capabilities instead. in www.”fakesitehere”.com\blog\wp-includes\functions.php on line 3466
Very good this plugin roks! Thanks!
