详情介绍:
VEFdocsKit gives the people you choose a page on your site where they drop their documents and get them back ready to use: images turned into PDF files, and nine tools to work on the pages. It is made for any activity that files documents: law firms, accountants, associations, public bodies, anyone who has to put documents in order.
Try it before installing: the live demo lets you try the tools online with sample files; the Pro features are shown there too.
Everything happens on your own server. The PDF files are read and written by the plugin itself, in plain PHP: there is no program to install on the server and no document is ever sent to another service.
Why VEFdocsKit
- One page for your users, with their own accounts that never open your administration, and documents that each account alone can see.
- Nothing to install on the server: no external program, no online service.
- A journal of every document handled: date, person, document, action and pages, with the file to download while it is kept. The SHA-256 fingerprint of the file received and of the file returned is recorded with each line.
- Works in the block editor, in Divi 5 and in Elementor, with the same choices in all three.
- The page takes the look of your site (font, colors, corners) unless you set its own style.
- No tracking: nothing is collected, and nothing is sent unless you yourself send a support request or choose the optional free license.
- This free plugin works on PDF files that are not protected. A protected file (restrictions on editing, copying or printing, or a password to open it) is refused with a clear message.
- Opening protected PDF files, including the extracts that come from administrations and company registers, is a feature of the paid extension VEFdocsKit Pro. It detects the protection on its own, in every tool, and a short message tells you when it was removed.
- JPG and PNG images become PDF pages, one image per page, fitted and centered on an A4 page with a 10 mm margin.
- Merge several documents into one, with an index of the documents in front, a separator page before each one and bookmarks.
- Split a document by groups of pages or every few pages.
- Keep, delete or reorder pages, and rotate them. Pages are typed like 1-3, 5, 8- (8- means page 8 to the end).
- Number the pages, and write a watermark across them.
- Clean the information that identifies where a file came from.
- The plugin creates the page when you activate it. You can rename it, move it in your menu, or put the block, the module or the widget on any other page.
- You create accounts for your users. They sign in on that page and work there only: they never see your administration or the toolbar of your site.
- The documents are stored encrypted, in a protected folder, under random names, and handed out only after a check of who is asking: each account sees its own documents only.
- Limits you can change: size of a document, number of pages, number of days the files are kept.
- Export the settings to a file and import them on another site; a reset puts back what you tick, after you typed a confirmation word.
- The privacy tools of WordPress (export and erase personal data) cover the journal, and a text for your privacy policy is suggested.
- Choose whether deleting the plugin also deletes the journal and the files; by default it keeps them.
- The opening of protected PDF files, including the extracts that come from administrations and company registers.
- A designer of stamps, with a live preview, and the stamping of documents.
- Folders with their series of numbers.
- A simple electronic signature.
- The sharing of a folder with collaborators, and the access of visitors to one folder.
- The full journal, with the folder, the numbers, the SHA-256 fingerprints and an export.
- VEFmusic: a free plugin for band websites, with an audio player, an album showcase, a show calendar and a press kit. More on v-images.com.

常见问题:
Does it need an external program or an online service?
No. The PDF files are read and written by the plugin itself, in PHP. Documents never leave your server.
Can it open a protected PDF?
Not in this free plugin: a protected file is refused with a message. VEFdocsKit Pro detects the protection by itself, whatever you do with the file, removes the restrictions (editing, copying, printing) of the files that open without a password and tells you with a short message. It asks for the password of the others. Nothing ever guesses or breaks a password.
Where are the documents kept?
In a protected folder of your uploads directory, encrypted, under random names that nobody can guess, for the number of days you choose (Settings, Documents part). They are handed out only to the people allowed to see them. The journal keeps its lines, and the fingerprints recorded with them, after the files are deleted.
Can my users see my administration?
No. The accounts created from the Accounts tab open the page of the documents and nothing else of your site.
Can an account see the documents of another?
No. Each account sees its own documents and its own journal only. By default the administrators see everything, which suits a firm that manages its own users; on a site open to several independent people, untick "Administrators can see the documents and the journal of every account" in the Settings tab.
Does it work with Divi 5, the block editor and Elementor?
Yes. The block editor needs nothing more. The Divi 5 module and the Elementor widget appear only when Divi 5 or Elementor is active. Divi is a product of Elegant Themes and is not included.
Is there a limit to the size of a document?
The plugin has its own limits (25 MB and 400 pages by default, changeable in Settings, Documents part). Your host sets another one for the upload of files: a higher value in the plugin changes nothing until the host raises its own limit.
Do I need a license?
No. The plugin is free and complete. An optional free license is offered in the License tab: it unlocks nothing and changes nothing in the plugin, it only lets the publisher keep in touch with you (news, offers on the other plugins) and answer support requests faster.
What happens to the data when I delete the plugin?
By default nothing is deleted, so that a new installation finds everything again. If you tick "Also delete the journal and the files" in Settings, Documents part, before deleting the plugin, the journal, the files, the settings and the role of the users are removed.
Where is the source code of the compiled script?
The src folder and the build files (package.json, tsconfig.json, webpack.divi.config.js) are included in the plugin. Run npm install then npm run build to rebuild the script of the Divi 5 module (divi5/app/build/app.js). The block editor script (blocks/app/editor.js) is not compiled.
更新日志:
0.2.14
- Changed: the administration is organized in five pages: Work, Accounts, Appearance, Settings, and License and help. The Settings page is divided into parts (Page, Access and privacy, Documents, Data). The addresses of the former tabs keep working.
- New: on the settings forms, a bar at the bottom of the window keeps the Save button in view and tells when a change has not been saved yet.
- New: a signed-in account that sees nothing else of the site goes straight to the page of the documents when it opens the home page. A box in Settings, Access and privacy turns this off.
- New: extension points for add-ons: the groups of pages of the administration, the parts of the Settings page, the topics of the Help tab, a mark in the header of every screen, the screen opened first on the page of the documents, and the address an account is sent to from the home page.
- Changed: the About tab presents V-IMAGES, the online help, the demo and the other plugins from one common list of addresses.
- Changed: the texts that name a setting give its new place (Appearance, Settings with the name of the part).
- Changed: the administration no longer uses scripts written in the markup (select on click, confirmation of a form).
- Fixed: on a small screen, a closed “?” reminder no longer makes the page wider.
- Added: small “?” reminders next to the fields, titles, buttons and tabs, which explain how each function works. They open on hover, on keyboard focus and on touch. Extensions can add their own.
- Changed: the About tab is shorter. The list of what the plugin does is in the Guide and in the online help; the About tab links to both, presents V-IMAGES and lists the other plugins.
- Changed: the License tab no longer carries a link to the page of VEFdocsKit Pro: the invitation stays in the About tab only.
- Changed: when you unregister and the registration service cannot be reached, the plugin says so instead of saying your data is deleted.
- Changed: the red status label of an extension (invalid license) has its own look.
- New: add-ons can add a column to the Accounts tab and a field to the form that creates an account, for example to give each account its own access.
- Changed: the earliest version offered when you go back to a previous version can be set by an add-on that needs a recent version of the plugin.
- Changed: the table of the accounts adapts the width of its columns to what it shows.
- New: a License tab groups the free license, the license of VEFdocsKit Pro and the versions of the plugin.
- New: once your address is confirmed, the free license shows your discount code on VEFdocsKit Pro in the License tab, with its conditions.
- New: if an update does not suit you, you can go back to an earlier version published on WordPress.org from the License tab (your documents and settings are kept).
- Changed: a discreet mention of VEFdocsKit Pro in the plugin and its plugins list. Nothing is locked and nothing changes in the tools.
- New: three extension points for add-ons that limit the use of the tools (a plan, a quota): the largest size of a file can be set for each person, and an add-on can refuse a batch before any file is read and hear how it ended. Without such an add-on nothing changes.
- Changed: the code follows the recommendations of the WordPress.org plugin check (hooks shared with the other V-IMAGES plugins). No change of behavior.
- Changed: the readme links to the live demo and has refreshed search tags. The plugin header links to the plugin page on v-images.com. No change of behavior.
- Changed: the plugin is now simply named VEFdocsKit.
- Changed: the icons of the About screen are Dashicons, and the status marks of the Accounts and Diagnostic screens are plain text signs.
- Changed: the readme describes the journal exactly. The SHA-256 fingerprints are recorded with each line; showing them in the journal and exporting it is part of VEFdocsKit Pro. Screenshots were added.
- New: an extension can add a tool to the grid of the Tools screen. VEFdocsKit Pro uses it to show the stamp among the other tools.
- Changed: the page of the documents stays hidden from search engines. Only a page that the webmaster opens to everyone with VEFdocsKit Pro can now be listed, and only for visitors who are not signed in.
- New: when a protected PDF file is opened and its protection is removed on its own (VEFdocsKit Pro), a short message now says so. It appears in the Documents screen, before stamping, and in each tool, including when files are merged. A protected file is still refused with a clear message when the extension is not installed.
- Fixed: with a retention of 0 days, the returned documents are now deleted as soon as they have been downloaded, as the Settings tab says. A document that is never downloaded is deleted after one day. Before, a retention of 0 kept the files for ever; the files that were kept this way are deleted too.
- Changed: the returned documents are stored encrypted, and the Diagnostic tab checks with a real request whether the server refuses direct access to the storage folder.
- Changed: the names of the uploaded files are cleaned as soon as they are received.
- Changed: the optional support access is no longer part of this plugin; the Diagnostic and support tab keeps the support request form.
- Fixed: the description of the image conversion is now exact. Each image is fitted and centered on an A4 page with a 10 mm margin.
- Changed: opening protected PDF files is now a feature of VEFdocsKit Pro. This free plugin reads the files that are not protected and refuses a protected one with a clear message. Install VEFdocsKit Pro 0.3.0 or later to keep unlocking.
- New: a setting, "Administrators can see the documents and the journal of every account", in the Settings tab. Turn it off on a site open to several independent people.
- New: a setting, "Delete the returned documents of a person as soon as they sign out" (Settings tab). The page tells the person before and after.
- New: the settings of the tools (last tool and options) are kept with the account instead of the browser, so they follow the person and survive a sign-out.
- New: extensions can add a line under the sign-in form.
- New: when a site opens the page to visitors without account, they can try the nine tools on three invented sample documents, without sending anything. The files are the only ones used. Extensions can replace them.
- Security: the temporary support account is explicitly kept away from the documents of the accounts, whatever its rights.
- Fixed: a refused action returned a server error instead of a plain "not allowed" answer.
- Changed: internal clean-up for the WordPress.org code checks. Nothing changes in how the plugin works.
- New: the stamp engine draws round stamps (two rings, a text along each arc, free lines in the middle). They are made in the stamp designer of VEFdocsKit Pro.
- New: an optional free license, in Help > About. It unlocks nothing and changes nothing in the plugin: it lets you stay in touch with the publisher (news, offers on the other plugins) and have your support requests recognised faster. Nothing is sent until you fill in the form and tick the consent box; you can unregister at any time, which deletes your data.
- New: the diagnostic shows the state of the free license (the key partly hidden).
- First release.
