Hi,

I've got a related question..how timely I saw this thread.

I am integrating a large standalone app into xoops. The application is not XOOPS aware. What I'd like to do is have some logic run in the XOOPS framework so that every time the menu is drawn I can do a database query, a little logic in php and then draw the menu. I want a couple of menu elements to be dynamically changed..but not in the modules instead in the code that created the menu. I cannot figure out exactly where mainmenu is called. I've grepped through my source tree and could not find one spot it's called from. Anyone care to point me at a location in source code?

Thanks, anemic

Would you recommend cbb4 or newbbex? Forums are such a critical aspect of a XOOPS community and I'm confused each time I look for docs or information. I've been happy with newbb but I'm looking now for the larger user base..I think it's harder for a large user base to die out.

Are there cloning docs for one of these?

Hi,

I'm looking for clone documentation for the newbb module. I have searched different sites for documentation for the newbb/cbb module. I've found a couple of support forums without recent posts. Is newbb dead and reborn in a new cbb? Where's the best place for support?

Hi All,

It's good to hear all these recommendations. I'm looking for a gallery that fits some of the criteria listed below. I'd like people responding to this thread to speak up about whether their favorite gallery supports these options.

1) Automatic creation of a member album(gallery) with directory name based on uid or uname. I'll have several general purpose galleries and then browseable member galleries/albums. General gals will be public but we'd like only the member to have write access to their own gallery. Ie All images from a member go to a unique directory for their personal album.
2) Easy to use for novices. Image uploads, deletes and other functions should be very simple.
3) Resize of big images to some max resolution (like 600x600). Thumbs created automatically (or auto generated for browsing).
4) Watermarks (text or image-based).
5) Postcards (eCards) of photos can be sent..
6) Gallery provided disk quotas based on group membership.
7) Ratings / comments for photos.
8) Extra credit a migration script from xcGallery.

If anyone knows which galleries would provide these features please speak up.

Thanks, anemic

I wanted to follow up with this. For xrmanager to work with the advanced editor function both must be enabled in the tinyeditor toolset. When editing a page the advanced features are available allowing to browse to a members images to use in the background of a userpage.

There is a follow up issue I have. Parts of xrmanager appear to come with tinyeditor. But there is evidently a missing plugin component I cannot find. Under editor/plugins there is to be a xrmanager directory that I don't have. So if anyone knows if there is an additional xrmanager plugin and where to get it I'd love to hear back. The reason I know this dir exists is because of the first chmod instructions in the manual. issing xrmanager/connectors/php/config.php.

The last component I need to work is file uploads and this appears to work , choose a file, click submit and wait a few seconds while it appears the file uploads. However it's never saved on the server. But I get no errors or warnings. Any ideas on how to debug?

Thanks.

The code to generate the browse-to-background-image function is in

<td id="background_image_browser">&nbsp;</td>


But I don't know why the image browser is not created.

Hi,

I've two sites that user tinyeditor along with userpage. These two modules are a great combo for providing user authored pages created with a WYSIWYG editor. Xrmanager on the sites has one feature that does not work the same way on both sites. There's a background feature allowing a member to select the background color or background image. On one of the sites xrmanager provides a textfield for typing in the name of a file but does not provide the browse-to-image function. Does anyone know what it takes to turn on the browse feature of xrmanager?

Hi,

I'm looking to find competent XOOPS developers available for hire. Consultants with experience writing XOOPS modules or core code. Additionally I'd like to find people experienced at running a busy site. If you do not fit these categories but would like to recommend someone you've worked with please do so.

Thanks, anemic / xoops_people@yahoo.com

Hi,

As a work around I added code to the formtext.php file so that if the right field is passed into the form I do the correct popoup. Something like this
if( $this->getName() == 'MyField' ) {
    return 
"<input type='text' name='".$this->getName()."'  id='".$this->getName()."' size='".$this->getSize()."' 
maxlength='"
.$this->getMaxlength()."' value='Click Here to   Change Field' 
onClick='clearText();window.open("
/Selections/MyFieldLauncher.htm","WindowName","location=0,status=0,scrollbars=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,width=493,height=655")' />";
} elseif( 
$this->getName() == 'MyField2' ) {
// Do MyField2 input statement
} else { 
// default formtext.php input field.
 
return "<input type='text' name='".$this->getName()."' id='".$this->getName()."' size='".$this->getSize()."' maxlength='".$this->getMaxlength()."' value='".$this->getValue()."'".$this->getExtra()." />";

}

clearText is a one line javascript routine to clear the field onClicking in it.

function clearText()
{
if (
document.userinfo.MyField.value == 'Click Here to   Change Field')
{
document.userinfo.Myfield.value "" ;
}
}

Hi,

I have a customized registration system where new members will have to select from popup windows to set certain registration values. The registrant chooses a value in the popup and I set the original registration form with the corresponding selection. This all works well. My problem is that the registration is using XoopsForm elements and these fields have a caption on the left and a textfield/area on the right. I'd like to customize some of the textfields to something like "Click Here to Change This Option". In the field I'd do an onClick to clear the field and then a popup select form. Right now my caption contains the field caption/description with an anchor titled 'Click Here to Set'. But you kind of have to look for anchor on the left..it's very easy to miss this option. The fields in question are used to provide customized meterological data and typing in the correct values would be out of the question. The only way to correctly set the field is with a popup.

I tried to add a custom input field to XOOPS form...I went to $xoopsroot/class/xoopsform, copied the XoopsFormText file, changed the references from XoopsFormText to XoopsFormTextMine and called it from the include/register.php code. The results are a white screen.

If anyone knows how to add a new XoopsForm element to which I can add onClick events or a clever way to add events like that to the current registration mechanism I'd love to hear about it.
