   for the suggestion! I have released v3.7 of the Restrict Usernames plugin, which
   includes the implementation of the suggested improvement.

   a note to consider implementing the suggestion in the future. As you can probably
   imagine, there are a lot of formats to take into consideration for phone numbers(
   especially internationally) and their variant representations.

   you using to get your the “Upcoming Events” widget? Auto-hyperlink URLs is generally
   compatible with widgets, but it really depends on what the other plugin is doing
   to generate its widget content.

 * [@princebhalani143](https://wordpress.org/support/users/princebhalani143/): Thanks
   for the suggestions! You should be pleased to learn that v1.3 of Published By
   has been released. It includes a fix so that the “Published By” column appears
   even if the listing of posts is being filtered. It also implements your suggestion
   for a dropdown to filter the listing of posts by the published-by user.
 * It does not implement your suggestion to be able sort the listing by the published-
   by users. I’m not sure how useful that would be for most users. Being able to
   filter posts by published-by user is handier and should hopefully suffice.
 * Cheers!

   since your request but I thought I’d let you (and anyone else who happens upon
   this thread) know that the just-released v2.2 of Never Moderate Registered Users
   facilitates your request.
 * The following code (if put into your active theme’s functions.php file, or ideally
   in a site-specific plugin) will allow the plugin to permit registered users to
   comment without being moderated unless they post a full URL.
 * `
    /** * Always moderate comments by registered users if they mention "Google".**
   @param bool $approved Approval status. Accepts 1, 0, 'spam', WP_Error. * @param
   array $commentdata Comment data. * @param WP_User $user The commenting user. *
   @return bool */ function c2c_moderate_registered_user_comments_with_url( $approved,
   $commentdata, $user ) { if ( $approved && ( false !== stripos( $commentdata['
   comment_content'], 'http://' ) || false !== stripos( $commentdata['comment_content'],'
   https://' ) ) ) { $approved = 0; } return $approved; } add_filter( 'c2c_moderate_registered_user_comments_with_url',

   a site-specific plugin).

       	$caps[] = 'mbactive';

 * [@crawlinson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/crawlinson/): Thanks for the
   review!
 * Do you happen to know which login widget you were using? WordPress itself doesn’t
   include a login widget, so the widget you’re referring to was likely provided
   by a plugin or theme.
 * I’ve recently released v1.7 of the plugin which adds support for login widgets
   provided by some popular login widget plugins:
 * * [BuddyPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/)
    * [Sidebar Login](https://wordpress.org/plugins/sidebar-login/)*
   [Login Widget With Shortcode](https://wordpress.org/plugins/login-sidebar-widget/)
 * Also, could you elaborate on the “extra white space and… gap”? Is this for the
   widget you’re talking about?

 * Hey [@beaulebens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beaulebens/)! Thanks for
   reporting the issue!
 * You were correct; one of the CSS rules omitted a plugin-specific specifier that
   was needed to prevent the rule from affecting other widgets. Fixed and released
   in v1.2.1 of the plugin.

 * Ashod,
 * The email option provided by the plugin is completely separate from the email
   options provided by WordPress itself.
 * The email settings on the Settings > Discussions admin page, consisting of the
   two checkbox options in the “Email me whenever” section (“Anyone posts a comment”
   and “A comment is held for moderation”) are provided by WordPress and are unrelated
   to anything handled by the plugin. Those options are provided even if the plugin
   is not installed, and are not affected by the plugin when it is installed.
 * The plugin only provides the option “Email me whenever a comment is submitted
   to the site.” in a user’s profile (in the section “New Comment Emails”).
 * If you want the test user to receive email notifications for new comments, the
   user must visit their own profile (or you as the administrator need to edit their
   profile) to check the “Email me whenever a comment is submitted to the site.”
   setting.
 * The Settings > Discussions admin page only relate to the designated admin email
   address getting email notifications. (Which, again, is separate from anything
   this plugin handles.)
 * Does that help clarify things?

 * Hi [@oanhtran1804](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oanhtran1804/),
 * The plugin has no settings page. It just works once activated. However, it only
   works for specific (documented) places: for post content, post excerpts, and 
   widget text.
 * It does not work for text in menus. The Visual Composer plugin you appear to 
   be using sounds like it enables shortcodes to work in menus, which is not default
   behavior for WordPress.
 * A few lines of code could be added by you to customize the Hide Broken Shortcodes
   plugin to work in other places (such as for menus), but it requires knowing the
   most appropriate hook for the field where you have put in shortcodes. The documentation
   for the filter ‘hide_broken_shortcodes_filters’ provides an example for what 
   the code should be once the hook is known (which I don’t know enough about based
   on what you provided).
 * Cheers!

 * Hi [@dylanfitzger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dylanfitzger/),
 * Thanks for the report! However, I believe the issue being reported is actually
   a shortcoming of the script or tool doing the validation.
 * The plugin file does not use the /e modifier, only /i, /u, /S.
 * ):
 * `$text = preg_replace( "~{$regex}~{$preg_flags}", $new_text, $text, $limit );`
 * The code scanner is likely seeing the “e” in the variable `$preg_flags` (which
   appears in the position a modifier is expected for `preg_replace()`). But that’s
   simply a character in a variable.
 * What code scanner are you using?
 * I have not encountered compatibility warnings or errors while running the plugin
   under PHP7. (There are some warning that will be fixed in the newest version,
   but aren’t due to PHP7.)
