mysite 5.x-2.5

New Features

5.x.2.5 adds a Comment plugin. This option lets users select track the comments attached to individual posts (nodes).

Content locking is now available for administrators who wish to force some content to be displayed on all user MySite pages.

Default reset allows users to reset their personal content to the default settings provided by the administrator.

For developers, 5.x.2.5 adds two new functions designed to let you call MySite data from external locations like themes, blocks, and panels.

  mysite_render($type, $type_id, $uid = 0)
  Returns the raw data array for a specific content element.  Formatted 
  according to mysite_type_data().
  
  mysite_display($type, $type_id, $uid = 0, $format = 'default')
  Returns a themed HTML snippet ready for insertion into a theme or to be
  used by a module or block.

In both cases, the functions are looking for the following information:

$type == A string indicating the content type
$type_id == The content id (such as term id) to retrieve
$uid == The user account to retrieve MySite page settings for. Optional.

The $format parameter in mysite_display() is an optional name of the MySite
format plugin to use for output theming.
