Administration,17861,Bug on WordPress Credits page,nacin,Administration,normal,normal,WordPress.org,defect (bug),reopened,,2011-06-21T15:56:56Z,2012-11-28T00:15:31Z,"Hi,

There are a couple of bugs on WordPress Credits page.

1.- There is a problem with usernames with dot, for example my username ""j.conti""

I'm on translators list, my name and avatar are correct but the link to my profile is wrong. Now, the link is http://profiles.wordpress.org/users/jconti but my profile is http://profiles.wordpress.org/users/j.conti the bug is deleting the dot.

2.- There is a problem with my name, my name is ""José Conti"" but is showing ""JosÃ© Conti""

attached pic

Thank you",j.conti
AtomPub,7301,AtomPub interface should accept new categories provided by clients,josephscott,AtomPub,normal,normal,WordPress.org,enhancement,reopened,,2008-07-15T04:54:22Z,2012-10-31T16:25:19Z,"The AtomPub interface successfully exposes access to the existing categories of a particular blog, via the URL:

http://[myblog]/wp-app.php/categories

But the category listing is identified as ""fixed"", and this pans out. When a  client attempts to provide a category term with a name that has not been seen before, the interface just ignores it.

It would be a nice enhancement to change the category collection to an editable one, and support provision of arbitrary new category names on supplied posts to the wp-app interface.

As it is now, there is no way to add categories via the AtomPub interface.

Symptom: When importing a blog from Movable Type to a blog in WP, you are asked to assign (or map) WP authors to MT authors. But, it turns out that the first author on the list is assigned to all posts. The other authors selected are neglected. Therefore, all of the posts end up belonging to one author.

Fix: I found the problem in wp-admin/import/mt.php. Specifically, ""$mtnames"" is not properly populated with authors from MT. So, I changed the code in function get_authors_from_post() as follows:

function get_authors_from_post() {
$formnames = array ();
$selectnames = array ();
$this->mtnames = $this->get_mt_authors();

I just added the last line shown above and then finally the import properly assings authors as intended.

Namely, many TypePad files are saved without file extensions, which prevents the existing importer from importing those files into the wp-content/uploads folder.

In order to import and rename these otherwise ignored files, we've created a patch for the WordPress importer that does the following:

1. If there is an attachment in the WXR and the importer is not able to determine the file type from the file name (ie missing extension), the patched version will make a light (body-less) request to the web server where the file is hosted for information we can use about the file.  The things we're interested in are file type, size, and filename.

2. If the importer is processing an attachment under the above situation, and it is able to determine the file type, then it will rewrite the local version of the file to have the appropriate file extension.

This is a simple bit of code, but it makes a huge difference as TypePad saves without file extensions quite regularly.

With a little luck, my current code should work fine once that server starts functioning again, but for the time being I would highly recommend not committing this into core.

Instead, I'm hoping people can look over the code and offer suggestions for improvement, test results, etc. While the Summer of Code is officially over today, I will be working on this until the job is done.

Alright, now to what this is. As some of you may know, I've been working on an Atom Publishing Protocol ([http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5023.txt RFC 5023]) based importer this summer for the Google Summer of Code. The diff attached is the latest version of my work.

The advantages of using the Atom Publishing Protocol are as follows:

 * Nothing has to be done in the old blogging software to prepare for import (no export files, etc). Users just enter their blog URL, username, and password and the importer grabs all of the data using AtomPub.
 * More data is imported compared to the old importers, especially with TypePad. Post slugs, comments, trackbacks, tags, categories, excerpts, etc are all imported. Everything used for posts in MT/TypePad is imported using AtomPub.
 * The Atom Publishing Protocol is an established standard. With the exceptions of tag additions (which don't necessarily need updates), the importer should not have to be changed and should continue working well into the future.

I should mention there is one drawback to using the Atom Publishing Protocol. For the time being, it appears pages can not be retrieved using AtomPub. They were retrievable a few weeks ago, and I'm currently talking with Six Apart to see what happened.

I would greatly appreciate any and all feedback. Let me know your suggestions, and I'll be happy to incorporate them.",cavemonkey50

Import,5678,Respectfully strip newlines in some importers,hansengel*,Import,normal,normal,WordPress.org,enhancement,accepted,,2008-01-16T11:20:02Z,2012-09-10T09:44:42Z,"Filing this as an enhancement because it could do with some discussion and insight from wiser and more experienced heads before being labelled ""defect"". :-)

I noticed while helping some users import their blogs that importers of HTML content (such as the RSS importer) don't tidy up superfluous newlines in the import format, which results in unnecessary {{{<br/>}}} elements after {{{wpautop()}}} filtering for display. They turn up in the editor too, which reinforces the problem.

I've adapted one of the filter functions to strip superfluous newlines, and changed my RSS importer to use it. The results have been warmly welcomed by users, who no longer have to clean up their imported blog content. ;-)

{{{strip_newlines()}}} should probably go into {{{wp-includes/formatting.php}}}, if there isn't already a function that already serves this purpose. I couldn't find one, so I adapted this. 

Given that similar HTML block/inline-savvy string-replacement code exists in other formatting functions, perhaps there's an opportunity for some refactoring here? I feel kind of silly proposing a function that is almost entirely duplicated from other code in the core.

I've used it immediately before the ""Clean up content"" section in {{{wp-admin/import/rss.php}}}'s {{{get_posts()}}}, and in an Advogato importer that I've written (which also uses HTML as the content format).

{{{
function strip_newlines($text) {

A few things that I know need improving:

'''Results and feedback'''
Currently you will either see ""All done. Have fun!"" or a list of errors and ""All done. Have fun!"". Clearly this isn't really enough information. The old importer listed every single item being imported and associated errors, which I thought was too much information for a large import. My thoughts was to do something like show the red error message block if any errors occur and have a JS enabled link in this to show a more detailed list of items that were not imported, followed by a table of results displaying the number of succeses, failures and skips (for content already present) for each of the separate sets of data imported.

'''Error strings'''
These need to be useful, there's not much point in saying something went wrong but not giving enough information to diagnose the real issue. They also need to be displayed well (see above), an example of a weird one is trying to import a WXR 1.0 file with an author with a display name non-[a-zA-Z].

'''Other'''[[BR]]
The fix for #13627 needs to be done properly. The role a new user will be imported as is now being displayed but I don't think it's prominent enough yet. You'll see that it's mentioned on step two when choosing how authors will be imported, but if you're someone like me who often only skims instructions it is pretty easy to miss. Maybe some bold/highlighting and another reminder on the final screen?

Anything else people notice as not clear enough when giving the importer a test.",duck_

The importer strips out double '''\n'''s and replaces with a single '''\n'''. This causes paragraphs to lose their distinction upon import.

It does this because the '''$line''' variable was created by '''$line = $this->fgets($handle)''' (line 339). Then '''$line = trim($line)''' (line 340) strips out several characters, including '''\n'''.

Lines 455 and 456 add back the '''\n''' ''except'' on blank lines:
{{{
   if( !empty($line) )
   $line .= ""\n"";
}}}

So if a '''$line''' was nothing but a '''\n''', it's stripped by the '''trim''' function and becomes a 0 character line. Then the '''if( !empty($line) )''' declines to add back a '''\n'''.

Presumably, such a plugin would be added to the importers list on wp-admin/import.php.

Trac is best when it is used to discuss implementation. If you want to discuss the general idea, please do so on [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2012/12/16/antsy-for-3-6-to-start-and-need-a/ make/core].

Some initial thoughts on implementation:
 * It should use the JSON-formatted data that comes with a downloaded tweet archive. The importer should take the entire zip, extract it, and loop through the monthly files. Anything more is an unnecessary burden on the user.
 * The plugin should import the tweet as actual content. A filter is good idea, if someone wishes to toggle this to instead insert links to tweets (and thus rely on oEmbed). It should also store the JSON-serialized array of data (directly from 1.1 of Twitter's API) in postmeta.
 * It should import posts as a post format. Status makes the most sense; 'link' could also work for links, then there's also 'aside'. The post format to use should be filterable on a tweet-by-tweet basis. The post type to use should be filterable, as a 'tweet' type may be desired.
 * It should handle importing an archive over an existing archive, by looking for the existing tweet (probably IDs as a meta key). I don't think deleted tweets should be removed in this process, though.
 * Remember that tweet IDs are going to be bigger than 32-bit integers, so they must be treated as strings, and we should not try to set a post ID as we might with other importers. This importer should be tested on a 32-bit environment.

Beyond that, there are other ""nice to haves"" that would likely be left to plugins of this plugin, given they are beyond the standard role of an importer. Beau Lebens, for example, has done some/all of this already:
 * Tagging based on hashtags, and a separate mentions and/or in-reply-to taxonomy.
 * Filtering over raw (no-HTML) content to add things like links to hashtags, links in tweets, etc., on display, rather than doing all of this on save. (Should a hashtag link go to the internal tag, or to twitter.com? Maybe the internal tag's description links to twitter.com?)
 * A cron to import new tweets using the same importing methods.

One thing I will suggest: decisions, not options. Note I said ""filter"" a bunch of times, but never the word ""option."" Not that there won't be a need for any user decision here, but we should make a plugin that works well for the common use cases, and leave the rest to other enterprising developers.

This causes unwanted hassle with eg. bookmarks, showing which pages were or were not visited and so forth.

An example of the steps to reproduce:

1. Go to a https URL (eg. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q= with the search string appended after the ""="", this being the only way to search on WordPress.org via https as all the forms redirect to http).
2. Type anything in any of the search forms.
 -> A warning is shown that you're being redirected to an unencrypted page.

OR

3. Go to a https URL (eg. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/types/ ).
4. Bookmark the page. Imagine a few months happening before the next step.
5. Click the Description tab (when browsing normally you'd click another tab in between but it's not a necessary step here).
6. You're now on a page that you haven't bookmarked. Bookmark it, because you like this page and don't remember having bookmarked a rather identical page months ago.
7. You end up having multiple bookmarks for the same pages.

The fix for all these is rather easy on paper: have all links on wordpress.org that point to wordpress.org automatically use the protocol used for loading the page currently being viewed. Start with having forms' targets use this, then navigational links, and later consider either auto-converting links in page contents (eg. plugin descriptions) or mentioning the possibility of using `://` links for this next to editors.",Daedalon

I wrote a script here a couple years ago to update the core WordPress application through subversion, coz I am tired of tracking my own modifications (if there is any)

https://github.com/timdream/wp-script

However, starting v3.3.1, I am not be able to update mo/po files through wordpress-i18n svn repo. According to the localization site here https://tw.wordpress.org/, I would have to export the files through GlotPress myself.

That leave me two choices with my script:

1. Hack my way through GlotPress, curl the GET requests to download the l10n files. The script would have to figure out 3.5.1 comes from 3.5.x first, and zh_TW -> zh-tw.
2. Download http://tw.wordpress.org/latest-zh_TW.tar.gz, extract and discard everything except the language directory.

Neither approach is optimal. So I would like to propose some possible approaches here:

A. Export the po/mo files back to subversion. I think this must have been discussed somewhere with people against it.
B. Provide latest-zh_TW-language.tar.gz package.

I am not aware of whether (B) is already exist or not, nor I am aware of where the packaging script is being maintained. If the script is somewhere publicly available through subversion, I am more than happy to provide a patch to it.

Until then, I would probably need to find some time to implement (1) in shell script :-/ Thank you for reading the bug report.

For example, I release a new version of a plugin via SVN. The plugin update appears on .org, and the download link downloads the new version. 

The update also appears in a WordPress install shortly after (assuming transients are deleted for the fastest way to get the update to show). If I then Upgrade the plugin from the, WordPress install the Upgrader Skin does the usual Downloading Plugin... and the package (zip) that is shown to be downloading is the previous version. Of course, it does download the previous version and again shows an update is available.

After about 5-10 minutes this usually fixes it's self.

I don't know how the .org side of things work, is it possible that the updated version will show up, but whatever is responsible for getting the latest package is relying on a different cache or something?

WordPress.org site,22770,Tweak Browse Happy so it doesn't jump the gun with out-of-date browser messages,,WordPress.org site,normal,normal,WordPress.org,defect (bug),new,,2012-12-06T01:28:44Z,2012-12-06T06:44:20Z,"Browse Happy is a useful tool for encouraging WordPress users to keep their browsers current. 

However, sometimes Browse Happy jumps the gun.

For instance, on GNU/Linux distributions like Ubuntu, users can choose to install Chromium directly from the repository (as opposed to downloading Chrome from Google's site). 

Chromium, when installed this way, is kept up to date by the operating system's package management tool, not manually. Users receive notifications from their operating system prompting them to upgrade when new versions of the browser are available. 

It makes no sense to show a Chromium user a ""your browser is out of date"" message when their browser is, in fact, up to date - as provided by their distribution. 

Unfortunately, that is what it happening now. 

Similarly, Microsoft has not yet released Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7, so it is not appropriate to tell users of IE9 that their browser is out of date. IE10 is available for Windows 7, but only as a release preview - similar to a WordPress release candidate. We wouldn't prompt users to upgrade their production WordPress installations to a release candidate, so why is Browse Happy telling Windows 7 IE users to upgrade to IE10 when the final version of IE10 has yet to be released?

Browse Happy should be tweaked so it does not jump the gun with out-of-date browser messages before browsers are really out of date. Users should only get a prompt to upgrade if there is in fact a newer version of their web browser available to them that is out of beta and suitable for production use.",avcascade

When setting up a CMS-based website, two of the most critical—if not the two most critical—decisions are:

 *  publishing platform
 *  web host
 
For the first you can pick at random among the best-known offerings and you won’t go much wrong.  (Or you can pick the most popular one, and, in most cases, you will have made the best choice! :-D)

But the second is different — or so my little experience tells me:  Fame and familiarity do not seem to be directly correlated with quality in the case of shared web-hosting, which is the best type of hosting for the majority of WP users.

And that’s unfortunate, because bad web hosting can ruin the experience of web publishing.

In addition, evaluting web hosts is not easy for a single individual, even for individuals who have the technical understanding, because it takes time and also money.

We, the people involved with WordPress development, are in a better position to offer some insight into the problem:  We are many, we have collective knowledge, and also collective experience.  So, here is my idea:

 *  Set up a team
 *  Set up a set of criteria
 *  Start evaluating services for a period of two or three months
 *  Publish the final recommendations on the WP.org page (along with the criteria used)

WordPress.org site,23256,Mitigate Plugins SVN Exponential Storage Growth,,WordPress.org site,normal,major,WordPress.org,defect (bug),new,,2013-01-21T23:41:56Z,2013-02-03T21:02:40Z,"We all know Subversion is terribly inefficient with storage compared to most modern version control systems, however I've noticed a pretty serious problem that goes way beyond this in the plugins SVN repo. Please forgive me if some details are slightly off as obviously anything running WP.org infrastructure is mostly a black box that no-one outside of Automattic or Audrey has any insight into (and I'm lucky to have found this problem in the first place).

If you take a look at the attached graph, you can see that the plugins repository is growing exponentially by disk usage regardless of what rate commits are coming in (but that has always been growing too, making this worse). I am assuming the repository is using FSFS, though this is actually still a problem if it were using BDB. All SVN repositories suffer from this weakness if used the same way the plugins SVN repo is being used.

The problem is that every SVN commit stores off node IDs of every sibling node of every parent node of all nodes that have changed in that revision. This means that a single commit to `/myplugin/trunk/readme.txt` contains references to all files and directories (and their related revision) in the `/myplugin/trunk` directory, the references to the `branches`, `tags`, and `trunk` nodes in `/myplugin`, and finally references to every directory in the root node (`/`) which means every single plugin in the repository.

Since the root node is related to any changed node in every single commit, and the list of plugins is constantly growing, this means that even though the repository is somewhere around 450GB right now, the actual data in the repo, including the full history, is only about 30GB. You can confirm with a simple dump of the repository. The other 420GB or so is entirely wasted space by SVN overhead.

If nothing is done in the next two years, the SVN repository is expected to double in size to about 900GB, and it’s performance will quickly degrade as the server takes longer to read revisions and the filesystem cache can no longer be used (which I suspect is already the case now). Another four years, and we could be looking at a 2TB Subversion repository with every single commit being required to write about 8MB to disk even if it's a one line change.

I know that any solution to this is going to take years to fully implement mostly because I believe this is going to require plugin SVN URLs to change during a migration at some point most likely. However, at the least, we should be heading up this problem by getting new plugin submissions started in their own repository rather than creating new directories for them in the current plugins SVN repo. This would at least stop the exponential growth of the plugins repository, extending it's lifespan significantly.",bpetty
WordPress.org site,19011,Support forum topics with Cyrillic titles cannot be found via Google,,WordPress.org site,normal,major,WordPress.org,defect (bug),new,,2011-10-20T02:22:19Z,2011-12-23T04:25:14Z,"None of the topics with Cyrillic titles on ru.forums.wordpress.org can be found via Google. Topics with Latin slugs are indexed properly. Same for the other forums in Cyrillic (bg.forums.wordpress.org and sr.forums.wordpress.org).

This wasn't a big issue three years ago when there were just a few posts, but now that more and more questions are asked and answered each day, it's hard for users to find previous topics and solutions.

[http://lists.automattic.com/pipermail/wp-forums/2011-February/006773.html According to Otto], there's no `robots.txt` or anything else blocking Google from indexing them.

This is probably a Google bug, but I've tried to ask on their Help forum, and no one replied.
