Domain Results
Version: 0.1
Author: Nick Ramsay
Created on: 2010/12/09
Last Updated: 2010/12/09
Tested on: Hotaru 1.4.1 ~ 1.4.2
Plugins Required: Bookmarking 0.5+
Plug & Play: Yes
Supported: No

Description
This plugin is an alternative to JonH's "More From" plugin. It displays the post's domain which links to more results submitted to your site from that domain.

The difference between this and Jon's version is this one doesn't use the domain as a search value. Instead, it uses the Bookmarking plugin to retrieve results based on the post_domain field in the database posts table. As a bonus, since it uses Bookmarking, it enables the filters for popular, upcoming, latest, all and best from.

Instructions
1. Upload the "domain_results" folder to your plugins folder.
2. Install it from Plugin Management in Admin.

Note: To get the filters working properly in Bookmarking 0.5, follow these instructions.

Nick, the attachment is empty.

Sorry, try again now.

Thanks Nick, this is just awesome. Not downplaying Jon's plugin, but this is giving the desired results.

Also, is there a way I could add the text, 'Source' before the link?

[Nick]

Sure, you can edit the language file (and then clear the language cache).

"Source" is not clickable in this example:

$lang["domain_results_pre_domain"] = " |   Source: ";
$lang["domain_results_domain"] = ""; 

"Source" is clickable in this example:

$lang["domain_results_pre_domain"] = " |  ";
$lang["domain_results_domain"] = "Source: ";

Thanks Nick.

I did away with the 'Source' text and replaced it with a tool tip (when a user places the mouse on the URL, the user sees what it is does).

For those interested in adding a tool tip just replace the following in domain_results.php (line 48).

echo $h->lang["domain_results_pre_domain"] . "<a href='" . $h->url(array('domain'=>$get_domain)) . "'>". $h->lang["domain_results_domain"] . $get_domain . "</a>\n"; 

WITH

echo $h->lang["domain_results_pre_domain"] . "<a href='" . $h->url(array('domain'=>$get_domain)) . "' title='ASDF'>". $h->lang["domain_results_domain"] . $get_domain . "</a>\n"; 

Replace 'ASDF' with 'whatever you want'

Nice work Nick! This plugin seems to find everything better. However it just gives me the Popular results. I can tell that's what you intended, and then if I click Upcoming or Latest I should get the results from that domain as well. However those buttons revert back to Upcoming and Latest for the entire site (without tagging the domain too). See an example here :

http://links.gunaxin.com/domain/uproxx.com/

I also noticed this method doesn't generate the RSS feed as the search did. That might be useful to have it possible.

[Nick]

@Gunaxin, you're right about there being no RSS feed. That would be a good addition in a future version.

As for the filters, you're right about that too, but it's easily fixed:

1. Open bookmarking.php in the Bookmarking plugin.
2. Find the theme_index_pre_main function (possibly around line 500?)
3. Scroll down to the very bottom of that function and add this plugin hook:

$h->pluginHook('bookmarking_sort_filter'); // allow custom filters 

before:

// display the sort links
$h->displayTemplate('bookmarking_sort_filter'); 

That hook will be in the next version of Bookmarking.

[Gunaxin]

hmmmm. Tried it, and it didn't work. So either I didn't do it right, or it doesn't work. Can anyone else test and confirm?

[Kenet]

I have question...
Is the a way to modify this plugin to work as direct source link.
I know that users can click the post title to visit source site (in Luciola Light) but I would like to give them visible original direct source link. Not to site but to actual url that user submitted in step 1 of post submission.
