[IDEA] Default search criteria

    Currently there is a hard-coded search criteria in ideaboard-shortcode.php

    Could you add support for shortcode default configuration like this:

    [ideapush board=”503″ status=”all-statuses” showing=”recent” ideas=”yes”]

    The last parameter is to enable and disable ideaform on page. It means I could only force people to vote on one page. And allowed to submit the new requests on another page. Of cause both of this pages will be available based on some “access restriction” by other plugins. Ex: only client who bought the product could submit the new requests or somebody who finished the course… or some other criteria.

    Hi Denis,

    I believe this is covered by the query sting URL’s we provide. You can set the default via the query strings. Please see the FAQ item: How can I change the status or filter shown on the board by default?

    Thanks,

    Yes. I’m using this, but it’s not enough. I would like to give the url to the user without $_GET parameters. Just clean URL like – http://mysite.com/ask

    I could not turn off the form by URL too.

    Hi Denis,

    I will need to consider this feature for the future. I would say the URL is not too bad because you can set the query strings in your WordPress page as well so it really is the default all the time.

    You want to be able to turn the form off all the time or just for certain people?

    You can disable the form by either CSS, or you can enable the form just for logged in users on the board setting: “GUEST VOTES/IDEAS”

    Yes, I need to show the form or remove based on some parameter.
    Shortcut parameter will be the best option, it’s ok to have a hook.

    There are plenty of cases. I have LMS system and if person started the course he should see only voting options. But when he close to the end. He could suggest his own improvements for the course.

    Actually I could make changes and send you for review. Not sure that it will be quick 🙂
