Improved admin_tools for Scoop

If you've ever built a site with Scoop, you know that all that messy hard-coded table-based HTML can be a pain. In the course of building several Scoop sites I've been reworking some of the common boxes to use cleaner, easily-styled, semantic markup, and this seems as good a place as any to post the code.

Here's a reworked admin_tools which outputs as an unordered list (and puts the "edit user" form in a definition list):

my $content;
my @tools = sort { $a->{pos} <=> $b->{pos} } values %{ $S->{ADMIN_TOOLS} };
foreach my $t (@tools) {
        if ( $S->have_perm($t->{perm}) ) {
                $content .= qq\|
        
$t->{menuname}
\|;
        }
}
if ($S->have_perm('edit_user')) {
 $content .= qq{

 

 

 
Edit User:
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
};
}
return '' unless $content;
return{content=>qq{
$content
}};

Improved user_box for Scoop

If you've ever built a site with Scoop, you know that all that messy hard-coded table-based HTML can be a pain. In the course of building several Scoop sites I've been reworking some of the common boxes to use cleaner, easily-styled, semantic markup, and this seems as good a place as any to post the code.

Here's a reworked user_box which outputs the tools menu as an unordered list:

my $content;
if ($S->{UID} > 0) {
  if ($S->have_perm('moderate')) {
    my ($nstories, $tstories) = $S->_count_new_sub();
    my $color = '';
    my $c_end = '';
    if ($nstories) {
       $color = '';
       $c_end = '';
    }
    $content = qq\|

    
Vote on Submissions ($tstories/$color$nstories$c_end new)
\|;
  }

  if ($S->{TRUSTLEV} == 2 \|\| $S->have_perm('super_mojo')) {
    $content .= qq{
Review Hidden Comments
};
  }
  
  my $urlnick = $S->urlify($S->{NICK});
  my $diary_link = $S->{UI}->{VARS}->{use_diaries} ? 
                qq{

                } : '';
        my $upload_link = ($S->{UI}->{VARS}->{allow_uploads} && ($S->have_perm('upload_user') \|\| $S->have_perm('upload_admin'))) ?
                qq{

} : '';

        my $ad_link = $S->{UI}->{VARS}->{use_ads} ?
                qq{

                } : '';

    $title = $S->{NICK};
} else {
    $content = $S->{UI}->{BLOCKS}->{login_box};
