## Description

Orbisius Support Tickets is a minimalistic ticket support system that enables you
to start providing awesome support in 2 minutes.
 You need to create/update several
pages and paste the relevant shortcodes so your customer can submit their support
requests. There is a tool in the plugin’s settings page that can help with the page
creation.

This is 2 minute demo showing you how to configure and use the plugin.

You can manually create the pages that the plugin needs with the following shortcodes
or let the plugin create them for you (Orbisius Support Tickets > Settings).
 Ideally,
you should create a top level page called Support (/support) or Help (/help). Then
create the following subpages. The parent page link will be prepended automatically
by WordPress.

My Tickets
 link: /support/my-tickets This shortcode lists user’s tickets [orbisius_support_tickets_list_tickets]

View Ticket
 link: /support/view-ticket

This shortcode is for viewing a given ticket
 [orbisius_support_tickets_view_ticket]

Submit Ticket
 link: /support/submit-ticket This shortcode lists ticket submission
form [orbisius_support_tickets_submit_ticket]

Add the newly created pages to the site’s nav menu.
 You need to go in to Appearance
> Menus

#### Support

> If you have found a bug or have a recommendation
>  [submit a ticket ](https://github.com/orbisius/orbisius-support-tickets/issues)
> We can’t fix something we don’t know about.

If you’ve found a security glitch please email ASAP to: help at orbisius.com.

You can use the following shortcode to generate a link to a given page.

Link to view single ticket page
 [orbisius_support_tickets_generate_page_link page
=view_ticket]

Link to my tickets page
 [orbisius_support_tickets_generate_page_link page=list_tickets]

Link to submit tickets page
 [orbisius_support_tickets_generate_page_link page=submit_ticket]

if you want the link to be passed through esc_url pass this attribute.
 esc=1

You can customize the email notification templates.
 The plugin provides merge tags
that you can using in the email templates. That way you’ll be able to use the same
template on multiple sites.

The plugin should also work even if your hosting is running php v5.2.4 (min php 
version required by WordPress itself).

You can easily view the View tickets or submit ticket pages from plugin’s settings
page.

Nice. This is only what I need, a light plugin. It does the job well. The only thing
is this plugin is outdated and have to do the maintenance and change the code by
yourself.

and its simplicity 🙂

## Changelog

#### 1.0.3

 * Removed ORBISIUS_SUPPORT_TICKETS_PAGES_VIEW_TICKET_URL const so it doesn’t cause
   some hard to find glitches.
 * Now allowing non-logged in users to view the ticket if they provide the correct
   ticket password.
 * Hooked into ‘comments_open’ filter to ensure that our tickets will always have
   comments enabled as some people might have then deactivated globally.
 * Fixed: removed an extra closing div which was breaking submit ticket page’s layout.
   Thanks again Ivo Minchev for reporting this. Ref: https://github.com/orbisius/
   orbisius-support-tickets/issues/1
 * The created by default Ticket submit form shortcode doesn’t render its title 
   by default because the page already has a title. The title would be useful if
   the submit ticket form is used somewhere on an existing page and not standalone.
 * Updated settings to require users to be logged or register in order to submit
   a ticket.
 * Showing an email field if the user is not logged in.
 * Saving user’s IP and email if passed
 * Using custom ticket password form
 * Guests can now really post a reply.
 * Removed url from ticket reply
 * Tickets are custom comment type now: orb_sup_tx_reply so they don’t appear in
   the recent comments widget.
 * Added code that filters ‘orb_sup_tx_reply’ comment post types because ticket 
   replies could contain sensitive data.
 * Tickets appear in chronological order. That means the oldest one is at the top.
 * Disabled WP comment flood protection for tickets i.e. people can post replies
   quickly.
 * Disabled WP comment moderation emails for tickets. We use WP’s internal post 
   password system and WP “feels” it’s necessary to alert the admin about this. 
   In our case it’s not necessary and is annoying.
 * Fixed email notifications.

#### 1.0.2

 * Fixed: Do not throw an exception when sanitizeData doesn’t know how to sanitize
   the passed data e.g. NULL or object. Thanks Ivo Minchev for reporting this.
 * sanitize_data -> sanitizeData

#### 1.0.1

 * Updated readme to include a shortcode so it YouTube video renders properly.
 * Fixes in the list tickets section (td had to be used when in the table body)

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release
