Thanks. Yes I had tried both without any luck.

I did finally get it to work but.... I had to take a copy of the image to my server. Placed the image in the mylinks/images directory.Then had to use this code to make it work.

In the code below replace the () with [].

Quote:

(url=www.xoops.org)Official XOOPS Site(/url)
(img)images/poweredby.gif(/img)

It appears that using the img tag in the description field makes it look got images locally in the mylinks directory!
Kind of strange, but if that's the way it is then so be it.
Also this means the images is not clickable. It's just an image. Oh well, better than nothing.

It would be nice if it would look for a url so that I didn't have to manage the updating of all these linked images.

Can we get a change made in core? Does it make sense?
Cheers

I would like to place the XOOPS link code into my Links page. I've completed the Title and URL and wanted to place the code from this site (found under "All about XOOPS --> Link to us") into the description field with the image.

i.e.
<a href='https://xoops.org' target='_blank'><img src='https://xoops.org/modules/wfchannel/images/linkimages/poweredby.gif' alt='Official XOOPS Website'></a>


But it comes out just like that? code!! What I want is:

<a href='https://xoops.org' target='_blank'><img src='https://xoops.org/modules/wfchannel/images/linkimages/poweredby.gif' alt='Official XOOPS Website'></a>

I tried wrapping it in code /code but it didn't work.

Any ideas. Thanks

i-mode, Vodafone Live etc.. module

Hi All, I like to resent most of my web site on an i-Mode, VidaFone 3G type phone. These are available in Japan and for the most part can handle almost anything. But....It's much easier if the content is presented in a mostly text based environment.

I know there is a AvantGo module, but it only displays the News sections. I'd like to have a module that I could basically create another home page.

This also means, that I have to identify the browser type and have the user redirected to the i-Mode page.

Any ideas? Is there something out there already? This would be good for PDAs and other WAP phones also. No?

Wish I knew how to program.

xcGallery

To make xcGallery work (from the readme)

Requirements:
- working XOOPS 2.0.x installation (with php/mysql)
- For image resizing you can use GD(without gif support), ImageMagik or Netpbm(still experimental)

Installation:
For installation put the xcgal directory into your XOOPS module dir. Set albums and its including userpics dir read and write able. Go to XOOPS admin panel and install xcGallery with the XOOPS module installation. If you have done this successfully, go to the xcgallery preferences and make your settings. Now, it's important that you go to the xcGallery group manager for creating the default groups.
Afterwards, you can create your first category with the categories manager. For pic uploading you need also to create at least on album, you can do this on the user side.


The second requirement is a must if you want thumbnails to work. i.e. your orginal problem.

Make sure the module load correctly. Then go into the admin of the module and complete the above. Without a category you can basically do nothing. Remember, categories are not albums.
Pictures are in albums, albums are grouped into categories.

ie.
Category: Family Photos
Album: 2005 02 01 Day at the Beach
Pictures: lots of them....

Hope this helps

did you try to turn caching off? Turnit off in the broswer first. If that doesn't fix it then make sure caching is off in both the module and the block.
Failing that, shut down apache and restart it to clear its cache.
After that, use the hammer....

Try right mouse clicking where the image should be and see if you can see the url for the image. This should tell you if the path is at least correct.

Re: Fedora Core 3 and CHMOD Checking file and directory permissions..

A big thatnk you to "trtc1134" for the below response. Yes this does allow the installation to continue and complete successfully. BUT.... after rebooting with SELinux enabled again, connecting to the site give me the following error message
"Error [Xoops]: Unable to connect to database in file class/database/databasefactory.php line 34"

The site works fine when I re-disable selinux on the boot command line.

So now I'm back here asking for help again cause I have no idea on this one. It's obviously something to do with the enhance security in Core 3. I've played with the firewall setting and the SELinux setting also. I've make the httpd deamon trusted and everything else I could think of or find.

Alas, no go joe.

Help!

Fedora Core 3 and CHMOD Checking file and directory permissions..

I'm trying to install XOOPS for the first time on a newly built Fedora Core 3 machine. I've installed Apache 2.0.52-3,
PHP 4.3.9-3, and mySQL 3.23.58 from the Fedora installer (confirmed from the install.log). I've confirmed that mySQL is working by creating a new DB to house XOOPS and created a dedicated user. Am able to login using that user with MySQLcc.

Apache is working since I get thru the first 2 screens of the XOOPS installation and therfore PHP is also working.

I have changed the permission on the required directories and file and confirmed with ls -l that they have in fact changed.

I get to the third screen "Checking file and directory permissions.." and XOOPS tells me that they have not been changed.

What gives?

I thought it might be Xoops, so I downloaded Postnuke (sorry) and I get to the same stage there and the same thing happens.

I check both CMS' code and they both use CHMOD function from PHP to check for the file stat.

Is there a problem with Fedora 3 and PHP 4 and the CHMOD function?

I've tried disaling the firewall, just in case it was that, but nope. I've tried the installation both from a client and locally on the server console. Same result.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm going to post this on the PHP site also and will let all know if I get an answer from somewhere.
Cheers
