If you have the ability to install the files yourself, I would recommend downloading the 2.0.5 package, uploading to your server, and using the XOOPS installer rather than Fantastico. Simple instructions are available on the XOOPS wiki. In the past there have been reported a few problems with the Fantastico installation on certain versions of XOOPS (e.g. it won't let you change the site name in preferences). If you haven't added anything to the site yet, you can drop all the database tables and they will be recreated by the XOOPS installer.

If you want to get rid of some, you could edit the class/errorhandler.php file and perhaps filter out anything with 'templates_c' or 'resource.db' in the path. Or perhaps even turning off all notices.

I've only had very limited experience with this module, but I don't think there is an "easy" way to import a lot of definitions... I think they have to be done one by one.

If you know how to do some scripting, I would suggest you have a look at the table structure for the module, and you can probably see how to write a simple script to insert all your data (from file or database or whereever it is now).

What is Wiki?


A 'wiki' is a documentation system where the documentation can be edited online (via a web browser); usually *everyone* can edit the documents. The XOOPS wiki ishttp://wiki.xoops.org . Here you will find much of the existing XOOPS documentation.

Quote:

Is ‘ant the 'Update module template .html files from themes/your theme/templates directory?' supposed to flush the template_c directory when you select Yes in the Site Preferences? Also I have 'No Cache' set for all modules. I assume the 'No Cache' setting would cause it not to save a cache file.

The option doesn't 'flush' the cache directory, but means any changes to files in the themes/templates directories will take effect immediately rather than waiting for e.g. the admin to update the module.

The module caching options are not related to this option. Module caching means the whole entire page is cached, with the template already filled in. Normally the templates_c directory caches *only the templates*. This is an optimization where the 'smarty' template is converted to a PHP file. When the page is viewed, the template still has to fill in data from the database etc to show the page. With module caching, the whole page is cached already filled in so no additional database queries are needed. The upside is faster page loads and less database traffic... the downside is that the information gets out of date.

Delete the files where you uploaded them, and drop the database you installed. That's it.

What I'm trying to ask is if there are any problems with search engines seeing that XOOPS is sort of a dynamic based system. Static pages are easily spidered but will XOOPS cause pages that are not to be looked at?


From what I understand, there should be no problem. Most current search engines (including google) understand dynamic pages. Keep in mind though that spiders crawl through your site by following links. e.g. Your news articles won't be indexed unless other pages such as your home page link to them.

Still looking for what template_c does.


This is where the smarty template engine caches the compiled templates. If you delete the files, they will be regenerated when the page is viewed next. If you are having problems getting changes to show up, check the wiki. There are a couple of suggestions of things you may need to do before the changes take effect.

Re: Mantis Bug Tracker and karate_redux_blue theme

You can try playing around with the CSS files that are part of the Mantis Bugtracker. Mantis is very heavy on tables and colours to try and pack a lot of information in a small space. That is probably why it doesn't get along with themes such as karate redux which don't have a lot of table borders etc. Also Mantis doesn't (yet) take advantage of XOOPS headings/titles etc to unify the appearance. I originally ported Mantis to XOOPS but unfortunately have not had enough time to do any enhancements with the themes yet.

Perhaps someone else has already modified the Mantis CSS to solve these issues?

Did you install using the 'fantastico' installer with your hoster? If so, search for 'fantastico' in the forums and you'll find a couple threads where people have had this issue (about the site name).

If this doesn't apply to you, please provide some additional information about your system/setup/versions etc so people here can help you out...
