Please suggest items for the Wednesday, September 26, dev chat.
Suggested reading: Countdown to 3.5 Beta 1 and Timeline for Twenty Twelve 1.0.
Updated. Agenda topics based on the comment thread:
- #21951 – Twenty Twelve – Conditionals in one template versus more templates but less logic
- #21101 – get_comments() – comment_approved versus status
- #18302 – theme_uri() with child theme inheritance
- #22002 – Plugin favorites via the plugin installer screen
An incomplete list of things that need to land before beta 1:
Welcome screen v2- Color picker (even if it is the initial pass; we can follow up after with @mattwiebe’s changes)
Retina spinners(more likely people can find bugs)- Page on front UI
- Multisite in a subdirectory

I think I am outnumbered on #21951 but I am curious what others think. Conditionals in one template versus more templates but less logic.

I hope after release Twenty Twelve will return to GitHub
It’s much more fun to participate over there than on Trac.

Sorry Trac isn’t as fun for you. Twenty Twelve, Eleven, and Ten will continue to be maintained on Trac for the foreseeable future.

Few things I haven’t marked 3.5 that have patches and might still be good candidates:
What’s up with this one (term cache semi-overhaul)? #21760 – also fixes #11531.
The RegEx for slurping URLs out of post_content for pings / trackbacks is old / ghetto / not robust, I replaced it here: #9064, also fixes #15549.
Meta Query doesn’t currently CAST order by value when meta_type is passed: #21621, related #15031
Post metadata action bug: #11683

Ryan and I might tackle #21760 during beta. #9064 seems pretty low priority. I commented to #21621. #11683 is news to me.

#21101 — get_comments(), comment_approved versus status.

#18302 — theme_uri() with child theme inheritance, etc. Do we want this? Need this? Do we know exactly what use cases make sense and we want to support? Or is this a punt?

Dialogue on #19956 would be nice. I seem to recall the link/button _used_ to say Add Media. Some people seem to think it should make a comeback.
Andrew Nacin 7:32 am on September 26, 2012 Permalink
@koopersmith is almost done with attachment inserting (into the editor) and editing (from the editor). The next step is to then add a new button for the 3.5 media workflow next to the old 3.4 button. (Obviously, only for beta.) So I’ve just been waiting for him to drop something in.
After, it’ll get covered in a UI chat and will be part of user testing by @lessbloat.

#21914 is simple enough that I’d like to get it into 3.5 if possible. I’ll be around to talk about it.
Andrew Nacin 4:50 pm on September 26, 2012 Permalink
This could use some basic unit tests, if only so the changes are clearly understandable with examples. I’m sold, otherwise.

#21632 – has anyone (@MarkJaquith?) contact Imgur about their maxwidth/maxheight problem? (Sorry, pot this comment in the wrong thread earlier)

#22002 – Plugin Favorites on the plugin installer screen

No ticket currently, but — addition of a “Location” post format, for post which are primarily centered around a location (likely indicated with the recommended geo_latitude and geo_longitude postmeta).
Andrew Nacin 4:48 pm on September 26, 2012 Permalink
Hmm. This sounds like a “Status” with geolocation. At the very least, a geolocation API should come first, I’d think.
John Blackbourn (johnbillion) 7:25 pm on September 26, 2012 Permalink
I wonder if we should discuss the post format issue again which didn’t make it into discussion the other week as we ran out of time. Twenty Twelve doesn’t support all post formats and either a) it should or b) we should consider the admin UI displaying all formats regardless of the active theme.

How about #19845? The base code works well but drag-drop in the editor uploading would need to be integrated with the new media after all of it gets in.
