that's perfect thanks!!!

how does the regex work then? I just have to put some common elements from each line I want deleted and that's enough? Fascinating.

the two which are most important for me are:-

my freecontent module isn't live onsite yet (until i get this fixed ;)

I'll take a look at v3.1 - what are the improvements?

thanks

Andrew

p.s. looking through the php it does seem as if freecontent will rewrite urls/mailto's etc where does this happen? For example do you copy a page upload it and then the module will relink everything? How does it work?

so for the regex filter I've entered

'2004 Associated New Media | Power shower: Switch your gas and electricity | Phones: Find a cheaper home line'

but this doesn't seem to have worked but when i just enter
'Phones: Find a cheaper home line'

this does seem to work consistently (although i have to click onto another digest item and back before the change will take effect).

I'm wondering if the '|' is the right seperator for each phrase?

any easy guides out there for regex? I need to block three links appearing in digest.

this is the example I'm working on:-

©2004 Associated New Media

Power shower: Switch your gas and electricity

Phones: Find a cheaper home line

- how do i get rid of these links (they don't appear together - and they're not the first ones that would have been easy)?

Re: FreeContent Webdigest v.3.0 Final

I've got some pretty fundimental questions about freecontent. ie. what is it?

I get that it can take news feeds from other sites and present them on the XOOPS site.

I also get that the digest feature should be able to summarise content at another site and present it on your own.

What I don't get is that I looked at www.gaining-mass.com and there draven had a free signup for email etc page which seemed to be loading from an external site but displaying under freecontent. That seemed pretty cool that you could load external content (as if perhaps in a frame set) but recode the links to appear internal to your site. Or Perhaps I have this totally wrong....

Looking at Draven's site again maybe he's just uploaded some html pages he's tailored to this section. But if so why not use wfsections or similar for this pretty simple task?

thanks

I've been using XOOPS for quite a while but I've now encountered the same problem identified here.

ie. install a module and it doesn't appear in the list of modules available to be installed.

I'm running the latest version of xoops.

I tried installing freecontent final, imenu and multimenu all of which didn't appear in my list of modules.

I tried uninstalling modules and then deleting their directories all of this worked exactly as expected. But the new modules just won't show up.

I updated the system module too no joy.

Andrew

actually I just noticed something - I use cute ftp for ftp. When looking at the module folder properties the other folder show 'folder' but the new fold (in my case freecontent) shows 'File Folder, cached at 29/03/2004 15:18:50' I don't know as yet why or how to change it. It has a different icon and i suspect this is the problem somehow.

ok a deleted the folder on the ftp server that showed as cached. (I had dragged it from my filemanager into cute ftp to upload). This time i uploaded it within cute ftp and now the module shows ok. Fixed - i hope.

looks good is it reasonably easy for users to submit their lists and update/maintain them and can people comment on the lists?

Many sites like amazon are now offering members the chance to create and maintain lists on their sites.

I run a software site and recently a member used an external service to create a list of his prefered software apps.
http://www.listology.com/content_show.cfm/content_id.10669
This is exactly the sort of thing my site deals with and I wondered if there's any module which exists which will allow memembers to easily create and mainatain their own lists within xoops.

thanks

i know this is probably pretty dumb but...

When I try to copy the code from the above examples the structure of the code is f*cked up. I'm sure i did it once before but this time it's just putting all the code in as 2 lines which isn't much good.

Also the download link isn't working for the main.php file so I can't download and get it from there.

Any ideas?

I'm not really great at graphics etc. I'm running a site for a company and could do with a nice theme being developed for it.

Does anyone know anyone who can design a professional XOOPS theme? Perhaps a small agency or individual with vision?

If you'd be interested in discussing let me know.

Andrew
