WP 4.2.2, PB 3.1.2, PBT 2.1.2, PmPDF 1.0.1

Symptom:
No TOC generated with PDF even though all system configurations are correct.

Workaround Solution:
Go to Open Textbook Theme Options > mPDF Options tab > Table of Contents > disable, then Save Changes, then re-enabled

Now generates TOC in PDF

Circumstances when this happens:
Migrating from one server to another. Everything appears fine across Pressbooks system and sites, except TOC is not generated in PDF.

After 'copy book' button has been pushed and new book as been created

• use the WP-API to:
• copy the book content
• copy the book metadata
• define the copyright and set the attribution
• copy some of the recent editing history
• retain a connection back to the original copy

Workaround for epub display seems to be converting large tables into images with link to larger content.

The following appears to be a potential solution for Site visit display:

Themes > Editor > Open Textbooks > style.css > #content table {

CHANGE display:table to block

Example:
/*******************************

content table {

border-spacing: 0;

Hello
After updating Pressbook Textbook download formats options disappeared. I'm using the pluging with wordpress with the last version.
Does anybody know how to solve this issue?
Thanks so Much
Aureliano

Brad,
I created a fresh install on a test site as described below, but received an error.

• New WP 4.1.1 site and database, set to multisite
• Installed PB 3.1.2 from GitHub release, and successfully created a test book
• Installed PB 2.1.2 from GitHub release
• Network Dashboard error: "PBT cannot find a Pressbooks install"
• Also, the Pressbooks Textbook theme does not appear in Network Dashboard > Themes
  Let me know if you would like privileges to explore this public test site.

thanks,
Jack

Tested: WP 4.4 + PB 3.0 + (all default themes + PBTextbook)
Parse Sections Enabled a two-level TOC

Result: TOC working correctly on pointing to subheadings except PBTextbook theme

PBTextbook Result - link of sub-heading goes to top of page, not to 2nd level heading.

Example of issue: http://epub-fhd.athabascau.ca/clinical-teaching

Creative commons configurator plugin has filter hook to rewrite the message, currently this is solved in a child theme, but needs to move and be able to receive arguments.

/**
 * Completely replaces the CC text with best-practices for derivatives text

 * @return string The new, best practices CC text for derivatives
 */
function pressbooks_copyright_notice_to_cc_text( $license_text ) {
    // we want to replace the entirety of auto-generated text, so 
    $license_text = '';
    $blog = get_bloginfo('name');

    switch ( $blog ) {
        case "Introduction to Sociology":
            $attribution = "<a href='http://cnx.org/content/col11407/latest'>".$blog."</a>";
            $author = "Dr. William Little";
            break;

        default:
            $attribution = "an original";
            $author = "an author";
            break;
    }
    $extra_text = "This work is a derivative of ".$attribution." by <a href='http://www.rice.edu'>Rice University</a>, used under <a href='http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/'>CC-BY 3.0</a>. "
        . "This derivative is licensed under <a href='http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/'>CC-BY 4.0</a> by ".$author.".";
    return $extra_text;
}


add_filter( 'bccl_cc_license_text', 'pressbooks_copyright_notice_to_cc_text', 10, 1 );

Hi, can you include this snippet (or something similar) above Line 403 in pressbooks-textbook.php please?

// Minimum PB requirements
if ( ! @include_once( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/pressbooks/compatibility.php' ) ) {
    add_action( 'admin_notices', function () {
        echo '<div id="message" class="error fade"><p>' . __( 'Cannot find Pressbooks install.', 'pressbooks' ) . '</p></div>';
    } );
    return;
}
elseif ( ! pb_meets_minimum_requirements() ) {
    return;
}

It's a new file that can be used for plugins that depend on the PB plugin. It will prevent PBT from running if a user upgrades and gets bitten by the PHP version change in the next release.

After a 'copy book' button has been clicked

• check if the user is authenticated
• if no, retain the value of the book location when redirecting user to log in screen
• check if the user is registered
• if no, check if the site allows user registration
• if yes, allow them to sign up
• if user is logged in, check if the user has enough permissions to create a book

Oh right, Thanks @bdolor. h3 being always centered can be solved at

Would it be possible to tag master with tags that correspond to releases on wp.com?

That would make it easier to track releases from git, as opposed to wp.

A few issues with rendering ordered lists (and nested OLs) and the discrepancies between Pressbooks preview and browser rendering.

The following is the code used:

1. Why do economists use the ceteris paribus assumption?
2. In an analysis of the market for paint, an economist discovers the facts listed below. State whether each of these changes will affect supply or demand, and in what direction.
   1. There have recently been some important cost-saving inventions in the technology for making paint.
   2. Paint is lasting longer, so that property owners need not repaint as often.
   3. Because of severe hailstorms, many people need to repaint now.
   4. The hailstorms damaged several factories that make paint, forcing them to close down for several months.
3. Many changes are affecting the market for oil. Predict how each of the following events will affect the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for oil. In each case, state how the event will affect the supply and demand diagram. Create a sketch of the diagram if necessary.
   1. Cars are becoming more fuel efficient, and therefore get more miles to the gallon.
   2. The winter is exceptionally cold.
   3. A major discovery of new oil is made off the coast of Norway.
   4. The economies of some major oil-using nations, like Japan, slow down.
   5. A war in the Middle East disrupts oil-pumping schedules.
   6. Landlords install additional insulation in buildings.
   7. The price of solar energy falls dramatically.
   8. Chemical companies invent a new, popular kind of plastic made from oil.

   A screenshot from the PressBooks Visual panel view of this code:
   

   A screenshot from the rendered version (same in all major browsers) of this same code:
   

   Issues
   The rendered browser version lacks hanging indents, and when nesting the lists there isn't enough space to differentiate between the two levels of hierarchy.

   Also, rendering seems to not like the lettered lists, and converts them all to numbers (e.g. a, b, c becomes 1.1, 1.2, 1.3) despite the inline code stating otherwise.

Brad, thanks for adding Google Analytics code for tracking download events. However, it's still not working for me, and I suspect that this may be caused by Google's recent upgrade from Classic to newer Universal Analytics:
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/upgrade/reference/gajs-analyticsjs

See also these references:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25506115/does-not-display-track-record-in-google-analytics
and
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26754109/google-analytics-universal-event-tracking-code-not-working

in line 98, you suggested that Google Analytics users insert this code:

$tracking = "_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','exportFiles','Downloads','$file_class']);";

This version did not work for me, probably because my GA accounts have all been updated from Classic to Universal. My understanding is that newer event code should follow this general format:

ga('send', 'event', 'category', 'action', 'opt_label', opt_value, {'nonInteraction': 1});

But I can't figure out the correct syntax to insert into your code. My failed attempts looked like this:

$tracking = "_ga(['send','event','exportFiles','Downloads','$file_class']);";

Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I doubt this is a truly github worthy "issue" but I'm trying to get set up with the PressBooks TextBook plugin/theme.

I set up a multisite WordPress install and installed the PressBooks plugin successfully (I believe). I see the basic PB WP themes available and have created a book.

http://jeremydean.org/pressbooks/ananthologyofmyown/

http://jeremydean.org/pressbooks/ananthologyofmyown/chapter/chapter-1/

I've added the PB Textbook plugin and network activated it.

BUT I'm not seeing the "Textbook theme" available at the network or book appearance admin levels.

Again, apologies that this is not likely a bug/feature issue, but any support would be appreciated.

I work with professors who want to do have annotatable PressBooks and want to be able to properly guide them through the process.

Long URL wraps in editor but not in webpage output:

The source of the issue is with the pressbooks-textbook plugin:

1. starting on ../wp-admin/options-general.php?page=pressbooks-textbook-settings
2. select Book Info link in "Two easy steps, using built-in functionality (recommended)
   Select your 'Copyright license' from the drop down menu in the Copyright section on the Book Info page."
3. goes to a blank info page (/wp-admin/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=metadata) - saving this page will delete previous book info

I'm not an experienced coder, as you know, but I have managed to create WP child-themes in the past.

Is there something about pressbooks-textbook plugin that prevents me from successfully uploading a child-theme (or is it just my lack of skills?).

Here's the link to my attempted child-theme (with some modified style.css, also in prince export folder, for my publisher) https://github.com/JackDougherty/opentextbook-webwriting-child

Here's the "broken theme" error message I receive on PB

My workaround, which is not ideal, has been to clone and modify your entire plugin

We are looking into starting to migrate some features from Pressbooks Textbook into the core Pressbooks plugin so as to make them available to all users of Pressbooks. First and foremost is the MCE Table Editor (pressbooks/pressbooks#154) and the MCE Superscript and Subscript buttons (pressbooks/pressbooks#157). I have introduced a couple of commits into pressbooks/dev that bring the MCE Table Editor plugin into Pressbooks core—however, it causes an error when the current version of Pressbooks Textbook is installed and the Open Textbook theme is active. How would you like to coordinate this? I can submit a pull request which removes the table editor from Pressbooks Textbook, and then going forward as I migrate features from Textbook I can submit pull requests to handle the switch similarly. At this point the MCE Table Editor and the superscript and subscript buttons are the two features we are looking to move over. Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this. (FYI, @hughmcguire.)

replace default search functionality with relevanssi plugin

Dear sir:

My name is Toni Devís.

I´m the founder of on-lingua.com. A libre web site for learning second languages.

I want to use PressBooks with my books. And also pressbooks texbooks in one of my installation. Because i want to allow the people to download and share the content.

We have content in many languages, and we hope we will open the site soon. But we have now a problem with your plugin, because it´s easy to download our content from other site.
<<
Search against the following domains.
(You can manage the list of domains to search against at any time:)
Reminder: You are responsible for adhering to all licensing and copyright restrictions.

That is not a problem for the open content, but sometimes we have restrictet content (because we need also charge money some times to our users) . If somebody from other installation can download our premium content, we have not busines. And i think is it not fear for the users if they do not want to share

Can you make a modification and just autorice download a book or chapter if the material is under Creative Commons license, please and if is with copyright do not allow to download?.

thanks

I'm running Wordpress 4.2.2 with Pressbooks 2.5 and PB Textbooks 1.2.8.
I'm using the search and import to search titles of chapters and books and that produces a list of chapters to import. I then select the chapters I'm interested and hit the start button. That quite quickly jumps me to the text organize dashboard page of the book but the chapters I selected for import are not visible in the list of posts included in the book.
