Hi,
I can definitely understand your frustration; I’ve added more documentation in example_hooks.php and functions.php to make things a little more transparent. However, I’m unfortunately externally swamped with work and don’t really have time to implement lots of UI-based settings that you can manipulate without touching any PHP. Customizing views and integrating views within a theme is really best done by using PHP and not through abstracted settings, anyway, IMHO (this is exactly how BuddyPress does it, for example).
If you have any questions about how to do something specific, though, definitely just let me know.
Best,
Tom
It’s actually a robust potential with fantastic potential but I agree, it’s no accessible to all. It’s not so much that I can’t figure out the hook and function demonstration, it’s that I don’t have the time. I think plugin users are looking for specific instructions for custom page templates. We’re used to being pampered.
We need a “copy and paste” example of the function that outputs the “edit profile” form on any template page. It should also allow for the exclusion/addition of individual fields.
Hooks are daunting for non-coders.
Thanks, this is helpful feedback.
I’ve added a function in the recent update to version 1.2 that will output the settings page:
feu_display_settings_page();
If anyone would like to modify what shows up on the settings page, the current most straightforward method would be to copy and paste the contents of views/settings.php into your template and modify them as need be (see Dominor’s 4-step directions here).
The cleaner, slightly more advanced way would be to set a custom FEU views directory as described in example_hooks.php (see set_custom_feu_views_directory()) and modify the settings.php within that directory.
I may add some arguments to feu_display_settings_page() that allow for modification of what shows up there when I find some time.
Thanks again,
Tom
