Advanced Plugin Manager - Reloaded v2.6


The original Advanced Plugin Manager was written by KirbyDE (found here). He expressed that this was not a release he intended to make into a full-fledged mod, and it also contained some bugs.
When I first saw the thread over at vB.com posted by Live Wire, he had photoshopped the Template Manager to indicate how Products and Plugins could work with this interface. I quite liked the idea, so I decided to make it so.
A week and one permission from Kirby later, I can present to you this Extension.

Features:
  • Mimicks the Template Manager in pretty much every sense
  • "Flag" Plugins for export/deletion
  • Remembers the expanded products indefinetely
  • Remembers the "flagged" plugins indefinetely
  • Automatically de-flags plugins when they have been exported/deleted.
  • Plugins that are subject to a disabled Product are marked as disabled themselves at runtime. Their TRUE state (as stored in the database) remains untouched.
  • Mass deletion of "flagged" plugins
  • Mass export of "flagged" plugins
  • Working "Save & Reload" button (Credits to Kirby for fixing it)
  • Shortcut to "Add / Import Product"
  • Fully phrased
  • NO Code Modifications needed!
Note:
This Extension will require page reloads for pretty much all its actions, as the Template Manager does. If you do not like this, please use Kirby's version.
Kirby does in no way support this version, nor do I support his.
Important! You need to uninstall Kirby's version before installing mine, should you choose my version.

Screenshots attached in 2nd post.

Install instructions:
  1. Click install (you want your precious support, don't you? ).
  2. Upload the files.
  3. Import the Product XML file through your ACP.
  4. Enjoy.
Upgrade instructions:
  1. Upload all files again.
  2. Import new product XML.
  3. Enjoy the improvements.

i find this very interesting, but wouldn't it be more efficient to simply create a complete new plugin system, instead of replacing some functions by others ?!... i don't like to add these replacements in "admin_global" ... even if we don't have to edit the files...

The main reason is that the more advanced functions, like Delete Product, contain much code beyond executing delete_product(). As such, any changes in the original Jelsoft code would force me to update this hack with the new code. And in every new version, I would have to cross-check the code.
Until Jelsoft puts all the advanced functions into one big function (like delete_post() etc) and makes it easier for developers to execute all neccessary code elsewhere, this is how it must remain.

This is the way that is should have always been. Jelsoft take note!

I have to admit, you pulled it off. Must have been the "I'll believe it when I see it", huh?

Good job!

This looks very nice. I think I'll wait a little bit on it though. See if anyone has any trouble. I still need to update to gold anyway. *holds head at the thought of the templates*
