Edit Post Locker is no more
Friday, April 4th, 2008With the release of wordpress 2.5, edit post locker is no longer needed. I’ll still provide support for those that can’t or don’t want to upgrade to wordpress 2.5.
Thru my partnerships, I deploy custom plugins and designs in wordpress to meet the site goals of my partners clients.
With the release of wordpress 2.5, edit post locker is no longer needed. I’ll still provide support for those that can’t or don’t want to upgrade to wordpress 2.5.
My first plugin was for a client who needed to be able to lock posts for editing. They were having issues with overwriting each others changes. I am pleased with how this came out considering that it was my first real wordpress plugin. Using javascript, ajax, and php sessions variables, I successfully made it such that when a editor/author opens a page or post for editing, it locks the post using that user’s id. If others try to open the post for editing, a alert box pops up telling them its locked for editing by “user” and then kicks them kindly back to the manage posts screen.
If you are interested in this plugin, please contact me.
Plugin should work on WP 2.3+ or WPMU 1.3+
