Contacts Plug-in

There's been (some) progress on the RapidWeaver plug-in that allows users to create a page using cards from Address Book.

I've been pretty busy working on the Church Hall conversion in my spare time so development of this plug-in has been painfully slow and I'm still far from finished but I thought I would release an early Beta for anybody that is interested in seeing progress.

Warning: this plugin is not for production use. It may look fine when previewed in RapidWeaver but things go downhill when the pages are exported and things get even worse when viewed in Internet Explorer.

Some notable omissions include (but not limited to):

  • No support for mobile telephone numbers
  • Incorrect handling of PNGs, Javascript and CSS in Internet Explorer
  • No visual feedback of 'Large Type' telephone numbers; just click them
  • Incomplete Microformat support
  • Dragging multiple cards, or groups, from the list or in from Address Book results in a single card being added
  • Broken pagination links in List view
  • Miscalculated pagination when some contacts are disabled in the list
  • The Appearance tab in Setup does nothing. Still not sure how I will handle changing the appearance (If at all).

and so it goes on… Anyway, if you haven't been put off and are still interested the download and have a look.
