nevermind.


I had to go into the control panel into the extended profile admin and set it to viewable.


It's very strange that this would be necessary, but it appears to be fixed.

2.2.4 profile field problems

I just went to 2.2.4 from 2.2.3

However, I still can't see the extended profile fields. For example, it doesn't show the field where it allows the user to choose how they receive notifications.

i am using the new 2.2.4 patch files, i deleted the profilefields from the cache, i updated the System, PM, Extended Profiles modules.

Also, there are still no records in the profile_category and profile_fieldcategory tables, if that is relevant.

I get these errors whenever i update a module:

Adding user profile fields...
NOTICE: umode exists - skipped
NOTICE: uorder exists - skipped
NOTICE: notify_method exists - skipped
NOTICE: notify_mode exists - skipped
etc.

and the text for the comments mode selection box doesn't show up.

Is there anything else i should have to do to see these fields? I'm out of ideas.

I actually made a lot of hacks to the core of 2.2.3 to add mapping and location management. I'm a little dissapointed that i will not be able to upgrade to 2.3, but oh well...

i guess i will patiently wait for 2.4 (or whatever it's called).

edit: also, let me add that it really should be a lot easier for people to see how exactly they can contribute, and how their contributions are helping progress. doesn't matter whether that's thru donating or writing code.

i know i would give money if i thought it would make 2.4 get here quicker, but i have no reason to believe that it will.

thanks it work well, when my mail is from own host.
but why i can not send to another emails, like yahoo or Gmail? and another members how can got their passwords, if they lose it?
thank u for your good help.



well, i was just referring to the FROM email address being from the same domain name (if it is not, that could cause a problem).


the only other problem i can think of is that possibly your host requires authentication (logging in w/username and password) before sending an email.

that would be a harder problem to solve. I think the phpmailer class that XOOPS uses has that capability, but right now i don't know if there are any parameters you can set in XOOPS to do that.

just in case your site is using SMTP (usually it doesn't but i don't know) you can try manually setting these in class.phpmailer.php

/**
* Sets SMTP username.
* @access public
* @var string
*/
var $Username = "";

/**
* Sets SMTP password.
* @access public
* @var string
*/
var $Password = "";

if that works, at least you know what the problem is

Does it matter what email address the message is sent from?

For example: the host may have some type of restriction on sending out email that appears to come from a different domain. so, if you domain is mydomain.com, then the FROM email address has to be some.one@mydomain.com

That's just a guess though.

lets say i have a module A that calls a function from another module B. and this function is supposed to return a string, say in english describing something.

How can that happen? If I put the english define(..) in module Bs english language file, then when module A make the call, it will not pick it up. however, the only other solution i can think of is to put the define in every other language file that calls the function in module B.

Can any one think of any better solutions?

I believe that I had a similar problem and am not sure if it is fixed yet - To work around this at the moment go and update the database tables with the correct notify_mode and notification_method.

Table is : xoops_user_profile
Fields to check :
Notify_method = 2 (email) 1 (PM)
Notify_mode = 0

I think the xoops_user_profile_field table defines the correct fields to be 100% certain - you could maybe insert the default values in here to make it happen for new users - But that is up to you :)


If there is another way - please can someone else answer it - Thanks



Does any one know if this problem was ever fixed in Xoops, and in the extended profiles module?

Hi.


I did create something similar to the google maps module. It uses the google maps API.

But also, one thing i was attempting to accomplish is to make a site where you could type in a location, and it will show things in/near that city/country.

This is really just a test site, and i am working on some improvements like putting international cities/countries in there. Right now, only the US is there.

Basically how i did it is i made a library that allows locations to be put in the database along with other (arbitrary) items like forum threads, or photo albums.

So, for each item, you can add a location either by entering a latitude/longitude, or clicking on a map, or for American addresses, entering the address. Then, you can go to the page for that location, and see what's there.

Also, I changed the search function in the kernel, so you can search for a word nearby a specific location.

Perhaps I will release the code one day, but right now, the code isn't in the best shape.

The site looks pretty good and it's a very good idea behind it, but the right column kind of takes away from the visual appeal.

You may also want to add one of the weather modules and maybe the Open Directory module for added stickiness.


Yea, I'm still working on the layout part.

The weather block i created was just a quick and easy way to do it, but, i will check out the weather modules.

That open directory thing sounds like a good idea.

I may give it a try. I am definately looking for more modules i can geo-hack.
