Yep...just gotta dig around & usually you can find everything you need

I just upgraded/patched to 2.08RC & all seems to be back to normal now...looked @ the dif modified thingy & it showed what was changed/fixed. So I guess these bugs have been addressed/fixed for the next release. THX!

I Love My XOOPS!

I recently upraded TO 2.07 from 2.06 [both patch & full package] & it seems that when attempting to edit users thru admin panel I get user already exsists error after submiting. Also if I try to manually add users, I get 'all required info must be completed' error. Even if I type something into every field...

Also noticed that in the Admin footer it still shows XOOPS 2.06

Any ideas or others having the same probs???

I never thought of that...

Created another custom block & will test this out too

Use the server path...similar to this $your_path="http://www.zzz.net/rotator" or "../rotator" depends on where you put the folder or how to feed it.

Great Idea!
Add this to the code for it to perform that lil' trick...it should only show the item once per day. [or in a 24 hour span...i think!]

srand(date("mYdjny"));
$randnum = rand(1,$items);
srand(time());

Not sure if anyone will find this useful or not...but I use it in a block to display a random image that links to an affillate site that sells PC hardware. I suppose it could be used for any number of things...not sure where I found it, one of the many php script sites?

I created a folder in the root & added my .inc files there.
*Note* Put your html code into a text editor [NotePad] & save as a .inc file.

Create a new custom block & put the code below [update w/your file_name.inc] in & set as php script.
#########################################################

## Put the number of random items to be displayed in place of 5
$items = 5;
$randnum = rand(1,$items);

## This is the path to the files you will be using, leave
## off the trailing slash '/'
$your_path = "/your/path/to/the/items";

## This is the .inc file that will show html in the custom block.
## Only change this part--> _file_name_
## For each item, you add another line, and add 1 to the [#]
$inc[1] = "$your_path/_file_name_.inc";
$inc[2] = "$your_path/_file_name_.inc";
$inc[3] = "$your_path/_file_name_.inc";
$inc[4] = "$your_path/_file_name_.inc";
$inc[5] = "$your_path/_file_name_.inc";

# This places the random html file into the custom block.
include $inc[$randnum];

Good Luck & Enjoy!

What I've noticed too is the popup only shows those @ the main page [news] & no others sections ever show. Knowing that my users are posting in the forums, viewing pics in MyAlbum or browsing MyDownloads.



Using the latest greatest 2.0.5.2

Is it possible in the next release to add the old 'last seen' part back into this module? I really miss that & currently use the hack version also, just for this purpose but it doesn't include the members/guest/more part, the code is there just doesn't seem to work...or @ least the version I have doesn't.

I installed this module too & have the same problems with blank pages, yet see no real solutions from the dev site. I'm thinking it's either a cookie [sessions] issue or possibly a server version incompatability issue...?

If someone has figured out how to intergrate this into XOOPS if you already have this on your server - provided by ISP - could you please post it?

THX!

here's another hack i found & currently use in my 'recent news' & 'top news' blocks w/display last 10 articles set using the 'edit' [action], then edit template & add to the top line.

<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="up" width="100%" height="100" scrollamount="1" scrolldelay="60" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()"><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="up" width="100%" height="100" scrollamount="1" scrolldelay="60" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()">


this one gives the 'mouse over - pause' feature were my previous post is for a basic 'no frills' scroller.

Thx CB! The groups trick worked like a champ!

I think I fig'd out what may have been the prob! I was using the AdminXPanel from 7dana & after seeing an updated/new version for the current XOOPS 2.0.5.2 only. I dl'd & loaded it & kapowwi! Everything is back to norm, whew! [i even reloaded the core & system module files w/o any success & was starting to think it was a db issue]

I would have never even thought to check into that area - DUH! [even tho it was an admin panel error i suppose!]

I've seen a few other posts here & there about related issues, hopefully everyone will read this & heed - ALWAYS look @ the add-ons/hacks for version compatability when problems arise as sometimes the core updates change & therefore some hacks may also need to be adjusted in order to function correctly.
