JMP User Community Add-In

5 Kudos

Description

If you've ever wanted to check out the JMP Community without leaving the comfort of your JMP application, this is the add-in for you! The JMP User Community add-in allows you to view the latest 20 posts in the discussion forums, the File Exchange (Add-Ins, Scripts, Sample Data), JMP Blogs (JMP Blog, JMPer Cable, Uncharted), and now the JSL Cookbook!

Settings

You can manage which forums and blogs appear in your window by changing your selections in the top-right corner. These settings are maintained across JMP sessions, so there is no need to adjust each time.

Removing unneeded forums and blogs decreases the amount of time it takes for the add-in to load. Changing the Display Type between "Browser Box" and "Display Boxes" changes the way posts are shown. However, only the "Display Boxes" option is available on Mac.

System Requirements

This add-in works in JMP 13 on Windows and Mac operating systems.

Amazing, @Justin_Chilton!

@Justin_Chilton This add-in seems not to work (anymore?) in JMP 17.1 or 18.2 if the display type "Display Boxes" has been selected. The disply type "Browser Box" works without error.

With display type "Display Boxes" there are many error messages if an entry is selected e.g.

/*:
Unable to read data from "https://community.jmp.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/105848iC6FF718877316561/image-size/medium?v=v...":
Internet Error: 403 in access or evaluation of 'Open' , Open/*###*/(XML Attr( "src" ))

@Justin_Chilton
First: In your add-in in file "Community RSS Feed Viewer.jsl" the line 13 contains obviously an error:

The line:

Try( here:prefs[prefGroup][key], here:getPrefs( 1 )[grprefGroupoup][key] )

should read:

Try( here:prefs[prefGroup][key], here:getPrefs( 1 )[prefGroup][key] )

Second: The line 305 results in an warning that WebPageBox does not recognize the message "Set Size":

 wbb << Set Max Size( 10000, 10000 ) <<Set Min Size( 500, 500 ) << Set Size( 1000, 600 );

Maybe you should wanted to use "Set Window Size" here.

=> Object 'WebPageBox' does not recognize the message 'Set Size'; perhaps you mean one of these: <<Get Size <<Set Window Size ...
