Hey thanks - But I understand this is what I need to do - the question is where do I paste it?

Thank you - now I need some more precise directions - where in theme.html do I paste <{$xoops_module_header}> ?

The current theme.html is this:

If you can point out exactly where to paste it I should be right as rain!

Drop down menu problem in NewBB

G'day - just installed NewBB latest and I was crusin - but i came across a small (big) problem - take a look at this and you will see what i mean. Resized Image

The theme is scac by Bassman. As a learner I have not tinkered in themes yet and i don't know if this is a module or a theme problem...so your guidance would be fully appreciated.

Cheers

Re: Dazed and Confused

If you choose to use the block approach here is an image of where it is
Resized Image

to see my block go tojen's classroom welcome page

I'll check out the WF channel module - I think I have that too..sounds like a much better idea than mine

Hi,
I'm trying to add a new page to my website. I've read other posts on how to do this, and have come to the conclusion that I'm a very special kind of idiot because I can't get it to work.

I want to Add several pages to my site, such as About Us, My Family etc etc. I can't figure out how to add these pages. I'm beginning to bang my head in frustration and close to scrapping the site.

How do I add a page? I've tried Tiny Content and can't even get the content to show up unless I click printer friendly.
...Thanks.
Lia


Well I am no expert and I did have trouble doing the same thing. The answer for linking has already been made for you - but the creating of the page in the first place can be done in xoops. It comes down to this - you will need to tinker with html. I don't use tiny content, but I did download html kit (you will find it with a google search I am sure)to help with the writing of a page. So I wrote it offline, and then proceeded to paste it into a 'new block' file.

If you need to include images you will need to upload these to an image folder - I will hopefully come back tomorrow with more clear steps for you - have to run off to work now for a champagne brekkie and christmas do...in the mean time...

If you go to your system admin and click on blocks you will find at the bottom the option to ad a custom block - which can be your own complete web page. The trick is getting everything where you want it. you will need to make sure the image references are right.
To make a traditional web look on xoops, in this same area of blocks make sure no blocks are turned on for the right hand side.

If anyone is reading this how can we get spaw editor to show in the ad a block area??? That would be super useful to newbies!

Cheers

Hello Jenny

I'm really confused because I introduced an error into the javascript code you have to add into your theme.html file.

...I don't know what to say more...maybe nothing and rather than saying other silly things, it would be better for everybody that I go to sleep.

I hope that this time will be the maid for you and istats and that you will see finally this module functioning.


Sylvain (too tired )




Yeeeeehhhaaaaa!!!! It works it works I'm a doing a happy dance sylvainb....It counted 1....can't wait to see more!!!
Thank you so much...you are forgiven your mistake - we all do it. I will now post all of this on FAQ in newbie speak...but not this morning - I will be late for work. I was away all weekend which is why I hadn't tried it yet. Will get there yet...

Re: GrabaGeek, a help site in progress

Since you have done such a wonderful job (I love it) how about a tutorial on how to design something like yours? I haven't been game at all yet to dabble in creating my own theme!

Re: I-Stats not counting

Sylvainb Thank you for posting again
From what you write it appears I did it right but the counter hasn't counted anything in the last two days. I have just done your second option and hope that works.

I have in fact updated the module template and then turned it off again as it is advised not to have this turned on while the site is live. So here are some more questions for you -

1. why do we need to turn it off again when the site is live? (I think I will post this one to Q and A too)
2. Should the site have been closed while I was making these changes? (since it isn't counting I am wondering if the site should have been turned off while I was making the changes)
3. You gave me this option
Quote:
you can delete all files into your templates_c folder

Deleting any files is scary for me...so what is the Templates_c folder? Is it a temporary file folder???
I see lots of files there which are like this
db%3Axcgal_thumb.html - all related to the modules
and files related to the two active themes on my site -they start with the theme name.
What will deleting all of these do?

I am not really that wounded...I figure it's a bit of a two way street here - you teach me the bits of XOOPS that confuse me and I teach you how to write better responses for the XOOPS learners.
Since our conversation is public hopefully others will learn too!

Looking forward to learning some more with your response...your favourite kid in the class

Re: I-Stats not counting

Well guys -Thanks for your help but I am still not there yet. I first must say I get really disappointed when i read Quote:
Always the same question, always the same answer


I am a newbie - but one smart enough to have done the search and then make the call for help -- the answers I found in searching didn't make sense to me. I was lost. I am also a teacher so I do sympathise with your frustration...but I think I can help some with how to make sure you don't get the same questions and answers all the time. I'll tackle this below.

I do not have expertise in html or php and need some hand holding - which is why i specifically asked for Quote:
(In simple step by step terms please...I get lost easily when tinkering with PHP and tables!)


The answer you have given me have either been misunderstood by me or not clear enough. It is really impoortant that you don't make the assumption that it is easy for the learner. Have you ever tried to make sense of Chinese or Arabic, or the egyptian hieroglyphics? Well for some of us that's what looking at codes is like...and while we are prepared to learn going to a file and modifying a code is scary, it is risj taking, it makes people like me a bit anxious that we won't stuff it right up and send our sites into cyberspace! So...when you are asked to help with a question like this please keep in mind what experience your audience might have - I make it clear I am on L plates - so I need to be guided carefully so I don't crash or bail out.

Off my soap box now

The install file kinda threw me...so I followed sylvainb's instructions. But I obviously did not get it right becuase the counter is still not working.
Quote:
Edit your theme.html and add near the </body> tag and before it the javascript code
<script type="text/Javascript">
<!--
istat = new Image(1,1);
istat.src = "http://<{$xoops_url}>/modules/istats/include/counter.php?sw="+screen.width+"&sc="+screen.colorDepth+"&referer="+escape(document.referrer)+"&page="+location.href;
//-->
</script>


I did this...it looks like this:

Quote:
</table>
<div id="footer"><{$xoops_footer}></div>
<script type="text/Javascript">
<!--
istat = new Image(1,1);
istat.src = "http://<{$xoops_url}>/modules/istats/include/counter.php?sw="+screen.width+"&sc="+screen.colorDepth+"&referer="+escape(document.referrer)+"&page="+location.href;
//-->
</script>

</body>
</html>




This was the only refence to </body> I could find in the file - near the bottom - I pasted the code Quote:
near and before it
but it hasn't worked.

So...can you please help me with what might still not be right?

Thanks for trying with me...but I still need your help!

PS...an easy way to help newbies with this stuff is to do this:
Go to your publichtml/themes/your site theme/theme.html file and oprn it to edit the code. Scroll to near the bottom. Find the section of code illustrated below.
Paste this code (code code code) in the place where the smileys are below.

</table>
<div id="footer"><{$xoops_footer}></div>

</body>
</html>

IUmm....if that is what you meant!

Thanks
