@Choccyhobnob Thank you for taking the time to write this up! |
I am keen to see this plugin become something useful. I have a couple of websites that offer creations using differing licences and its a pain to manage at the moment, this plugin looks like it could solve those problems so I'd like to help push it in the right direction. A good plugin will encourage more usage of the licences as well, that wouldn't be a bad thing. |
Thank you for the suggestions. I totally agree with you on 2 and 3. and they are already under progress. The widget options are also a good idea, noted. Could you elaborate more on the fourth point? It is possible to integrate the features in blocks, maybe by using Rich Text blocks. We can add these features to both the blocks and the widget and let the user decide the one. The idea is to support Gutenberg.
This can certainly be considered, I am not a fan of how the footer looks. Right now, I am re-writing the settings, thank you for your time, I will definitely consider these suggestions. |
Maybe I misunderstand how the blocks will be implemented. If I have a site licence set, and then set a licence for my page, the page licence overrides the site licence. What happens if I then add a licence to the body text using a block? does it remove the sidebar widget or change it? can I have multiple items on a page with multiple licence blocks (the 'useful' use case I imagine for a block based licence) if I can, what happens to the licence displayed in the footer/widget? |
Point 4. I think I am thinking about custom post types, not taxonomies. Gallery plugins, download plugins, portfolio plugins etc can implement custom post types that go along with posts, pages, media etc. It should be possible to set the licence for these post types as well as posts and pages |
You're right. The use case is multiple attributions to different content. If we include a block, the widget will not be affected. That is why we are including the warning before the license text that goes:
With the next release (will be out in a couple of days) I have removed the border of the blocks and made a few changes. If you have some input about the design of the blocks that will be welcome as well. |
OK I'll check it out. |
New version v2019.7.2 released. See the changelog for more. |
#74: Options added to the widget. |
Updated with completed suggestions. |
A couple more. Blocks don't have any formatting options other than fore/background colour. being able to change the alignment and font size would be good. I'd like to be able to change the widget text for each page. Ideally I'd like a footer with a sitewide licence, each page to be able to have an overriding page licence and then the content have overriding block level licences. I can't turn the CC off for other non-cc licences, I have some fonts that are SIL licensed. This gets us into the realms of being able to pick all the other open source licences, maybe not somewhere you want to go. Overall this is looking great now! well done :) |

There are a couple of things that need to happen before I can activate this plugin.
I don't quite see how you are going to integrate blocks with this. If the idea is to display the licence in the footer or in a widget, it would probably be better as custom meta on the page/post/taxonomy. If you want the licence to be included in the body of the page/post you don't need a widget/footer for it.
