I would start with an e-mail reservation system since it is an easy way to implement such a feature and then on the submission page I would post a timeframe like; Please submit your reservation before 11:00am of the day of the reservation.

That way the restaurant manager could check their e-mail once a day at noon and get all the reservations for that day and beyond.

I know it's not very sophisticated but the end-user will never know.

I recently updated to 2.0.4 and I'm having problems with the forum module. The view defaults to a threaded view and though it can be changed to a standard flat view it reverts to the threaded format every time I access the forum. All of my users seem to have the same problem, and there appears to be no way of changing this in the preferences.

Is there any way of setting this to flat as default, or this being saved once it has been changed?

Any help would be appreciated thanks :)

After installation, everything is green and ready to go, so I went to the root of my XOOPS installation, and I got a blank page, with the following in the server log file: (edited for privacy reasons)

[Wed Oct 8 00:04:15 2003] [error] PHP Warning: main() [function.main]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/share/php/PEAR/XOOPS_ROOT_PATH/class/xoopsblock.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/httpd/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs) in /home/httpd/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs/v2/header.php on line 28

And the list goes on like that.
I have no clue what's going on there

Mind you, I have no telnet or ssh available since my hoster doesn't allow that.

Is this a permission issue? If so, is there a list available which permissions should be set, directory and file based?

I got it running on my own server, so I decided to give it a try on my hosting provider, obviously without any success sofar. Database seems to be allrighty, so I cannot blame that to be the problem

mCity,

Thanks for sharing!

I agree it's a convinient method, IF you happen to know all the languages. I'm webmaster on a danish, japanese and english site, and often I have problems remembering the japanese words - thus other people need to edit the text again, with the risk of axidental mistakes happening in the other languages. Now imagine supporting 20 languages or more, perhaps having 10 or 15 people going thru all the lines to insert/translate their part. It's a hell.

Great work. I did however have problems with the above line.
Instead of that line, I added the following as a new line 42:

All the other lines worked as they should.

I noticed that things like custom blocks, which don't belong to a module will have a name as an unbreabable space:

I also noticed the drop-down box isn't fixed yet.


All in all. Good work!

i grabbed the xoopspoll/admin/index.php file from the cvs but that didn't seem to fix the problem? is this the file that i need?

can you post a solution as to how to fix it in this forum?

retrieve password through lostpass.php

If you want to retrive a password, you will receive a email message called "New Password Request at XOOPS Official Site". If you click on it, a new email message with a new password will be sent to you.

BUT once you have logged in with the new password, a "NEW Password Request ..." will be sent to you AGAIN and asks you to click on and change your password again.

The third email should not be sent by xoops.

tl

what would be really useful would be a module that could automatically do a db backup at specified intervals...maybe I'll sick myself on it.

But then again I don't really know mySQL very well. Maybe somebody else could do it though?

How exactly would you propose to do online reservations? would they be emailed? It seems like since different restaraunts accept reservations in different ways it would be kind of tough...

Thanks. I think the thing for me to do is put together some FAQs on the subject that my non-registered users can access.

I tried duplicating the problem they are reporting by changing my own firewall settings and changing the browser's security and cookie settings.

As you know, it is about impossible to duplicate what everyone out there has or does.

Also, I have heavily hacked XOOPS to allow long term cookie settings. That could also be contributing to the problem.
