All I understand that this plugin is up for adoption, requiring someone to maintain etc. I would like to take this over as I use it alot. My current version allows you to search through your notes and Colour code them. Is this plug-in still up for offer What do I need to do Thanks Daivid |

I think there have been some rather detailed feature requests outlined on this or the squirrelmail-users mailing list for this plugin. As I recall, there may have been more than one person that had already implemented some improvements to the code. It'd be nice if you could track them down and try to integrate them into your version. You can also ask here and on the users mailing list for input, and maybe some people will come out of the woodwork. After that, please review the plugin development guidelines (not 100% finished -- if you have questions, ask) before sending the new version for approval via the guidelines therein. You should also subscribe to at least this list. Thanks! |

Tomorrow I'll see if I still have my notes on those discussions. The biggest improvement that many users wanted is to get rid of the current inflexible "sticky notes" layout and return to the more space-efficient layout of the previous version which was more like a message listing. |

Back in 2003, I collaborated with the original plugin author to improve this plugin, adding import and better usability in released version 2.0.3. In 2006, I had an idea for some enhanced functionality. Fredrik Jervfors coded that new functionality (thanks Fredrik!), and posted two updated files to replace those in the Bookmarks archive. The new code: - Enables deletion of a folder with recursive deletion of any subfolders. - Enables function to delete all bookmarks (to prepare to import a fresh set). Fredrik's updated files were never added to the SM site. His update makes this a much more useful tool, so I think that a revised package containing these new files should be added to the SM plugins site. How can we get this "latest" Bookmarks plugin package added to the site? (Perhaps it doesn't conform to current plugin release standards, but it is nonetheless the most recent release with better functionality than what's currently on the plugins page.) I also have ideas and code regarding a possible new and improved Bookmarks plugin. Another author and I had produced a working prototype that was very encouraging. I've contacted him to see if he wants to resume our work. (I had also contacted the original author, who said she isn't interested and hoped someone else would take ownership of the plugin.) |

I'm back. Sorry to say I left for a while to try out Horde. After intense psychotherapy I'm pleased to say that I missed SquirrelMail so much I had to go back. There are two plugins that I expressed intent to take over a while ago. I plan on doing some coding this week to release new versions asap. Please see my notes below and let me know your thoughts, dreams and hopes for their progress. *************************************************** Notes: Current Version 1.2 http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=79 Confirmed by author to be "abandoned" - up for adoption. Features/Changes: - Re-code for SM Plugin Development Guideline adherence - Change "stickies" interface to table-based - Option to store data in separate "flat" file or PostgreSQL/MySQL DB --------------------------------------------------- Bookmarks: Current Version 2.0.3 http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=93 Confirmed by author to be "abandoned" - up for adoption.

I wondered what had happened to you. Please be sure to work from the true latest Bookmarks plugin. The one on the SM site is not the latest. I had worked with the original author on developing the plugin. Later, after the author bowed out, Fredrik Jervfors made some modifications for me such as to add a Delete All Bookmarks function (to use as a precursor to doing a fresh import). I suggested that this latest version should get added to the SM downloads page, but that never happened. I can send you this latest version if you like. I also have somee development versions that another person worked on with me a couple of years ago. They were fairly ambitious, creating live clickable and expandable bookmarks and folders in the folders pane, via javascript. |

Most likely Alan sent you the code I wrote by now (I not sure I still have it anyway). Use it or discard it as you please. Currently I don't have time to help out myself. Sincerely, Fredrik |

The plugin should have fallback code/functionality in case JavaScript is not available. |

Naturally. As that version of the plugin was never completed, it's moot at this point. |

Can you send me the latest code you have for Bookmarks? I appear and disappear at random. My day job can be demanding, as you all can understand I'm sure :-) Thanks! Randy |

My day job can be demanding, as you all > can understand I'm sure :-) Here are the modified Bookmarks files. Use them to replace the same named files in the official release. That will result in the latest version, with functionality as I described. As for Notes, instead of a deprecated fixed TABLE layout, please consider moving to modern accessible coding using CSS and more flexible elements such as DIVs with CLASS or ID values. That will allow for better rendering and customization of Notes' layout. |

If you'd like me to email them to you, or want a co-developer on this job, let me know. Also, another upgrade that I think would benefit this plugin is the ability to move folders/subfolders to other folders. And perhaps changing the database structure from listing subfolders like this: "folder|subfolder" to a child id#/parent id# setup. Though I don't know how hard it would be to maintain backwards compatibility if this were done.
