I used this hacky sed-command (run it from your GNU Social root, or change the first grep's path to where it actually lies) to do a rough fix on all ::staticGet calls and rename them to ::getKV
sed -i -s -e '/DataObject::staticGet/I!s/::staticGet/::getKV/Ig' $(grep -R ::staticGet `pwd`/* | grep -v -e '^extlib' | grep -v DataObject:: |grep -v "function staticGet"|cut -d: -f1 |sort |uniq)
If you're applying this, remember to change the Managed_DataObject and Memcached_DataObject function definitions of staticGet to getKV!
This might of course take some getting used to, or modification fo StatusNet plugins, but the result is that all the static calls (to staticGet) are now properly made without breaking PHP Strict Standards. Standards are there to be followed (and they caused some very bad confusion when used with get_called_class)
Reasonably any plugin or code that tests for the definition of 'GNUSOCIAL' or similar will take this change into consideration.
Issue #3125 at http://status.net/open-source/issues/3125 (and its duplicate 3127) describe buggy behaviour when trying to create a new group - i.e. the group is still created but with nickname NULL.
The reason the group is created is that when failing Nickname::normalize, the function trySave() in actions/newgroup.php doesn't call 'return' - meaning it just keeps going despite the error thrown. It a
So the simple solution to this bug was adding a return call at line 128, inside the catch just after the showForm(...) call.
Group edit page is at /group/:nickname/edit. There's also a form
parameter named 'nickname'. The two were conflicting.
I changed the form parameter to 'newnickname' and it works.
I'm not sure how this ever worked before, though.
* adds Right::CREATEGROUP
* logic in Profile::hasRight() checks for silencing
* NewgroupAction checks for the permission before letting you see or process the form in the UI
* User_group::register() logic does a low-level check on the specified initial group admin, and rejects creation if that user doesn't have the right; guaranteeing that API methods etc will also have this restriction applied sensibly.
Added code to add and save group aliases. Like tags, aliases are
free-texted in to the group admin page. configurable max number of
aliases, default is three.
After fixing the redirect code output, there are a lot of weirdnesses
with e.g. form handling. Try to add explicit redirect codes where
needed -- principly when handling a POST.
