Dashboard: Pending Review

WordPress 2.5 introduces a widgetized dashboard and some people had been wanting to see a list of all posts pending review on the dashboard, so I wrote this widget.

I love this Plugin ! Since WP 2.7 this is a must have. For WP2.7 you have to remove this line “extract( $args, EXTR_SKIP );” from dashboard-pending-review.php to work without errors. Don’t know what this do for but works fine without this line. Greetz from Germany.

Hi,

I got the same error as Martin and then removed the line and all is working fine now.

Man… It’s plugin is simple and very nice. Any chance to generate a .pot file. I want to translate to pt_BR.

I’ve apparently had an updated version of this sitting on my computer for quite a while (rewritten for WordPress 2.7). I’ve committed it and included a translation template while was as it.

If you send me the translation file, I’ll include it.

Nice plugin. Is it possible to extend it to Pages in pending review also?

Works great, but I do need it to display Pages pending review as well as just posts. Is that possible? Otherwise it’s no good because the pages will be forgotten…

Edit the plugin and remove this line:
```
'post_type' => 'post',
```

Thanks a lot for that tip – I’ll try it. Thanks for the quick response.

I’ve tried that, but it still just returns posts. I also tried changing ‘post’ into ‘page’, which does work, but (as you’d expect) only returns pages.

What I’m after is an OR, but I’m not sure of the syntax. I tried
```
'post_type' => 'post' || 'post_type' => 'page', 
```
but that crashed the dashboard. Am I close?! Sorry to have to ask, but I’m at the limits of my coding knowledge here…!

Oh, try this:
```
'post_type' => 'any',
```
I guess it defaults to “post” if you don’t pass that parameter.

I should just update my plugin to do this without any modifications.

I’ve spent the last hour trying to make the translations work to no avail. I can assuredly tell you it doesn’t work.

Alright, I’ve got things to work, but it wasn’t a bump-free ride.

The .pot template is not up to date. I generated a .mo file from the .php page. One of the sentences was not translating because the line showing it was wrong.
```
_e( 'There are no pending posts at the moment', 'dashboard-scheduled-posts' );
```
had to be replaced by
```
_e( 'There are no pending posts at the moment', 'dashboard-pending-review');
```

Heh, seems you found out what plugin I used as a base.

Thanks for catching that error.
