Re: what kind of printer(s) do you use at home?

Guess I'm glad to have an inkjet.
My printer is a HP Deskjet 970Cse Professional Series, about 6 years old. My mom bought it years ago to create double-sided brochures for a start-up business she was attempting at the time, & back then this thing was top of the line.

These days, it would be cheaper for me to buy another printer than to buy ink for this one.

This example presumes you are using XOOPS 2.0.14x or better, and gives you the option to employ 3 stylesheets - one for your smartsection index page, one for all other smartsection pages and another for any page outside of smartsection. You can change that to suit your needs by changing the style_yourstylesheet.css reference.

Open your theme.html and look for this line in the head of your document:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="<{xoImgUrl /style.css}>" />

Replace with:
<{if $xoops_dirname == "smartsection"}>          
          <{if 
$xoops_requesturi == "/your_xoops_root/modules/smartsection/index.php" or $xoops_requesturi == "/your_xoops_root/modules/smartsection/"}>
          <
link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<{xoImgUrl /style_smartsection_main.css}>" />
          <{else}>
          <
link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<{xoImgUrl /style_smartsection_other.css}>" />          
          <{/if}>
<{else}>
   <
link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<{xoImgUrl /style.css}>" />   
<{/if}>

CubeCart has that functionality as well but is less than half the price for a license - and you can use it free w/o a license if you keep their footer information on your site.
There are lots of fun (free and paid) mods for CC available too, to add increased functionality for specific types of stores.

I did try Zen-Cart, a while back. It didn't seem to have the kind of functionality I needed.

In CubeCart (and in my shop) when you add an item to your basket, it just adds it to the "basket block", letting you continue shopping until you choose "view cart". It doesn't automatically redirect users to the cart when you click "add to basket", but there is a CC mod for this if you wanted to use CC & redirect users to their cart upon adding an item.

There are also (paid) mods allowing CC to handle subscriptions as well - so if a XOOPS integration package were developed for CubeCart it would kill several birds in one fell swoop. I've seen phpbb integration packs for CC so a XOOPS mod must be do-able! Anyone...?

I have to completely disable my firewall in order to see my admin area correctly, so I suggest giving that a try.

I've tried them all - I even bought xAsset which would have been perfect except that it didn't work & there was no support, even before it was abandoned. I have finally gone with CubeCart (http://www.cubecart.org) & have it running alongside MyXoops site pretty flawlessly, except for the lack of XOOPS integration. You can see by comparing my XOOPS based site to its CubeCart based counterpart, except for integrated registrations you might not notice the difference between the 2:
http://www.myxoops.com/ - XOOPS
http://www.myxoops.com/shop - CubeCart

- So basically it is easily skinnable, has an intuitive backend, & is really easy to use.

If someone could produce a "mod"/module that would integrate users between XOOPS & CubeCart, I'd buy it. It would be a great solution to the one thing XOOPS is sorely lacking: a real ecommerce option.

Excellent article, definitely worthy of a year-later bump. This is also case & point for why "old threads" should not be locked or deleted from the archive, a wealth of information like this could be easily lost without the ability to bump a topic back to the top - even if this topic is a year old, it is just as relevant today as ever. If this thread had gotten the attention it warranted a year ago XOOPS might be in a whole nother echelon by now, but hopefully we can all learn from it's logic today to help speed the evolution of XOOPS into tomorrow.

The best solution I've found for this is the "wimpy" button. See it here:

I wouldn't object to a self-destruct button if it was timed - I think anything else would be a disaster. IMO a 3-minute edit option is perfect - if you change your mind about something you submitted within 3 minutes of having posted it, you should be able to edit your post - and maybe even erase it. After that though and as people respond to your post, the thread becomes part of the community & should not be edited or altered. If people were able to "take back" a post days after it started a heated 30 page thread, for example, that person would not have any visible responsibility for his actions & you can just imagine where that could lead, especially with the current climate at xoops.org. I notice I can still edit a post days after I posted it, but not years after I posted it, so there must be some expiration on the edit button in play here already, which is good. Shortening the edit window & adding a 2-3 minute kill option would be nice with all the accidental double postings.

Went off on a bit of a tangent there... glad you solved it tho, whatever it was. I bet I'd know if we had a 3 minute edit rule! lol
