(I really wish they had RSS for individual discussions here! I'm sorry I didn't see your message until now.) If your installation isn't an unusual one, the URL for the cache should be: http://hostname/path/to/vanilla/extensions/vLaTeX/cache The …

I forgot. The other thing that I had to do was fix the permissions on the directory. For some reason, the extension directory got permissions 700 and the files in it got 000 (!). However, if you get to the settings page then clearly this isn't a …

Tested on vanilla-1.1.9: works fine. In testing, though, I discovered one or two things that maybe weren't so clear from the documentation. The simplest way to get it working is to use the standard formatter and make the change indicated above. I…

The second of those should have read: $$2^2$$ becomes >vlatex/vlatex

I haven't tested it on 1.1.9 so I'll have to do that to be sure that there's not an incompatibility there. When you say "2^2 gets parsed to $$2^2$$", are there some missing tags there? Depending on how much of vLaTeX is working I would expect you …

Just upgraded my test version of Vanilla to 1.1.6 and the plugin seems still to work.

Minor security issue: it is possible for a user to be able to access 'settings.php' without having permission to change system settings (say, if they have permission to muck about with categories). So the script should explicitly test for $Context-…

Oh hang on, just figured it out. "Guest" is the user name displayed when the user doesn't have a name. Thus testing for "Guest" is daft, whereas testing for a name fixes it. Thus my line 49 now reads: if(!$AccountUser || !$Context->Session-&g…

I'm getting the same errors as sherem and dkodr. It happens when I look at a user's account when not logged in (i.e. as a guest). I tried adding a bailout to line 49, adding '$Context->Session->User->Name == Guest' to the list of conditio…

That's odd, I thought I replied to your comment but it doesn't seem to have appeared. My apologies. And my apologies as well for the impression I appear to have given. The "not rating it very highly" didn't refer to your documentation but to my m…

Stash, I wouldn't rate it very highly. One of the reasons for these forums, I guess, is as a place to extend the documentation. Hopefully, if anyone else makes the same mistake as me then they'll see the comment here and realise what to do.

I did see this, but didn't realise exactly how to do it! What I didn't realise was that the order in which one selects extensions in that menu corresponds exactly to the order in which they are invoked. I read the "before" as in "vanilla must incl…
-
Tip (that would have saved me a few minutes of grief had I known it): to get this plugin listed *before* any that need it, de-select (from the "extensions" menu in the "settings" menu) those plugins that need it, select JQuery, and then re-select th…

Warning: it is simple to insert malicious code with this plugin as is. The inbuilt sanitiser only sanitises tags that aren't in code blocks. Unfortunately, it doesn't always get it right as to what is and isn't a code block, thus letting through h…

Try setting the permissions on the `conf` directory to 755. I think that, depending on the security settings, PHP won't allow files to be accessed if it thinks that their permissions (which might actually be the permissions of the directory) are to…

One advantage of a central repository which has been alluded to above deserves more emphasis. If the original author disappears off the face of the earth, the add-on is still around. It's really frustrating to find the "perfect" add-on that does e…
