Hello Gavin G

Sorry for late reply to this,
Please find the answers to your queries below.
1. Issue with Like's displaying the wrong username in Easysocial notifications mentioned here already: http://stackideas.com/forums/easydiscuss-likes-showing-wrong-username-in-notifications
>> I believe Mark already answered in this thread http://stackideas.com/forums/easydiscuss-likes-showing-wrong-username-in-notifications

2. BBCodes are not being stripped from the text when the search summary text is created resulting in ugly summaries.
>> Is it possible provide us with some screenshot how to reproduce on this issues?

3. Discussions are not getting removed from the search index when they are deleted from within Easydiscuss front or backend.
>> Can you elaborate your question with more details, and include a screen shot of what you are referring to? So we can help investigate on this issues. Please advise.

2. Screenshot of search summary with bbcodes showing attached - notice how the [ b ] and [ /b ] are showing. How to reproduce? Run the search indexer in the backend and any posts with bbcode in it will show the raw bbcode in the search summary when you search.

3. I can't show a screenshot of this. To see what I mean, create a new discussion in Easydiscuss and notice that it gets added to the Smart Search index and the discussion will show up in searches. However, when you delete the Easydiscuss discussion it should get removed from the search index, but it does not, resulting in search results of discussions that no longer exist.

Hello Gavin,

I am sorry for the late reply. Please find your answers below:
1. I have done some fix on your site. I have put some codes in: ...components\com_easydiscuss\views\search\view.html.php line: 69. Please have a look.

2. About "Discussions are not getting removed from the search index when they are deleted from within Easydiscuss front or backend" we are still configuring this. We will include this fix in the next release.

I am sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Please be advise.
Thanks.

Hi Mohd,
Thanks but it's not actually fixing my issue. The code you added replaces any blockquote tags but doesn't do anything to bbcode tags.
Can it be fixed in the actual search plugin so that it strips bbcode out of the summaries so this is not necessary?

Hello Gavin G,

I am sorry but may I know is your issue "BBCodes are not being stripped from the text" is still there?

About "replaces any blockquote tags but doesn't do anything to bbcode tags.", Easydiscuss is already stripping out bbcodes but we overlook the "blockqoute" and it is a bug from our end. I am sorry for the inconvenience caused.

About "Can it be fixed in the actual search plugin", this Easydiscuss search is actually searching directly from database using query. It doesn't use search plugin to accomplished this.

If you have anymore question, please don't hesitate to ask us and I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Hope this will help.
Thanks.

Mohd I'm not referring to the Easydiscuss built in search, this problem is with the Smart Search (Finder) plugin for Easydiscuss.

Hello Gavin,

I am sorry for the really late reply.
Can you put this attached file into your site: /plugins/finder/easydiscuss/easydiscuss.php
Purge Smart Search: Manage Indexed Content
and then re-index it back. This is because, Smart Search indexing the content and saved in database.

I am sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Please be advise.
Thanks.

Sorry but it doesn't work. Now there is no summary at all for Easydiscuss entries. The description column of the jos_finder_links table is completely empty for all ED entries.
Can you please test it first because I just purged my entire search index and it takes a whole day to index it all again.

ok managed to find the problem.

Line 163 needs to be $item->content, not $post->content

			$item->summary	= $item->content;

Hello Gavin,

I am sorry for the late reply.
Thanks for updating us. May I know is your issue has resolved?
If doesn't resolved, can you provide us with backend access. We are getting this error: "You do not have access to the administrator section of this site."

Please be advise.
Thanks.

Yeh it's resolved I guess but the smart search plugin really needs an update so that deleted discussions are removed from the index.

Hello Gavin,

I am sorry for the late reply. Glad to hear your issue have been resolved.
We will try to improve this smart search plugin but right now our hands are tight with the development of EasyBlog 4. Maybe in the future release we will include this fix. If you have anymore question, please don't hesitate to ask us and please create a new ticket. I will mark this ticket as resolved.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Thanks and have a wonderful day.
