Randomize and Limit options do not work

brainolution · April 2012

This discussion is related to the User List addon.

The Randomize and Limit options on this plugin do not work. It shows all the users in the forum irrespective of the Limit value and the list is not randomized.

Has anybody faced the same issue, and managed to resolve it?

Thanks

Am I the only one facing problems with this plugin?

Have you check js problem?

Thank you guys.

@Chanux - that link solved half the problem (randomize) and I solved the other half (limit) by adding this:

->Limit($Limit)

Thanks again

Dang... and here I am all excited to share my brilliant fix for the plugin, and of course it's already been solved.

To sum it up, the full-on query should be:

         $this->Users = $SQL
                    ->Select($Select)
                ->From($From)
                ->Join('UserRole r','u.UserID = r.UserID')
                ->Where($Where)
                ->OrderBy($Order)
                ->Limit($Limit)
                ->Get();

Can we somehow incorporate this into a 0.6 release?

@underdog how do we maintain plugins when the original authors havent been around for a good long while?

Thank you for the question. Indeed, that's a problem.

All I can think is of some solutions, nothing in detail:

Create a project on github so you can receive bug reports or use your own github account
Create your own version of the plugin and attach it to a discussion topic
Have someone add the new version to the current plugin page (tricky, I think)

Howdy, Stranger!
