The Tiny Conent Menu and Shoutbox blocks won't display on my site. I have set all the groups permissions, and made them visible. I have done this on other sites and no problems, but can't figure this out...help?

Using XOOPS 2.0.10 btw.

thanx

Time Zone customization question?

I have small issue I am trying to resolve. I have designed a custom theme for someone, and it looks great except for when you go to the "Register" page, it stretches everythin out too far, (a fixed width theme). It is the "Time Zone" field on the register page that is causing the stretch, which leads to my question...

Does anyone know how I might edit the text displayed in the time zone pull down on the register page?

For example, I would like to change the selection

"(GMT)Greenwich Mean TIme, London, Dublin, Lisbon, Casablanca, Monrovia"

to something like:

"(GMT)Greenwich Mean TIme, London,Dublin"


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A simple article management module, anyone?

I am looking for a SIMPLE articel module. Basicly, I want a module like ArMS, or WFSections, but with no categories needed, so all articles will display in a list on the indes page of the module. An article management module, withou categories, seems simple enough, but I cannot find anything that would work.

If someone could point me to a module that would work like this, or to a hack for a module that would remove categories, I would do an Irish jig, and sing your praises for days on end.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Grtz., Shine


Wow, that does help, thanx.

But I can't get any of the changes to the sub menu items to take. I found where it resides, in main.php, in the language folder, but even tho I changed:

define("_WFS_POSTNEWARTICLE","Submit Article");


to

define("_WFS_POSTNEWARTICLE","Submit Issue");


it doesn't change the submenu items for the module. It still says "Submit Article". I tried refreshing the module, but am pretty sure you don't need to refresh the mosule for a PHP code edit. Am I missing something?

Changing submenu text?

I am trying to customize a site for a fansite, and am stumped. Does anyone know how to change the submenu text for a module?

For example, the news module. In the main menu, it displays in the mani menu as "news". When you click it, you get the submenu items:

Submit News
Archive

How would I go about changing it so it says "Submit Article", or "Submit a story"?

I realize there is no difference between "story" and "news", it's just the example I used.

You need to change the closesite config in the database. If you have PhpMyAdmin just go to the config table and change the value of "closesite" to 0.

If you need a sql query for it, try this:
UPDATE xoops_config SET conf_value=0 WHERE conf_name = 'closesite'

Change "xoops" to the prefix you use, if it's different.


I do have phpMyAdmin, and am trying to go about trying this, but when I try to run the query, I get this error:

"#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'xoops_config SET conf_value=0 WHERE conf_name = 'closesite'' at "

The prefix is the same, btw.

Could you be a little more specific as to how I can do this with phpMyAdmin? I am a total n00b to using it. I know the theory, but havn't really use it much. I am able to go to the xoops_config table, but all that it shows is a bunch of stuff like "conf_modid" and such. Am I missing something? Maybe I need to do it with a query, but the query you gave didn't work, so maybe I need to alter the query somehow?

This seems like such an easy fix, and I bet I'm gonna slap myself once I get it. Thanks for the help everyone.

I think you can get to a login screen by adding /user.php on the end of your site url.

Not sure if it works on a closed site though.

Nope, that won't work. Already tried that, it just redircts me to the system_siteclosed.html page.

I just edited the system_siteclosed.html file, and didn't notice that frontpage changed some of the code. Now I can't login to the site! There is some kind of problem, which doesn't let the system_siteclosed.html file submit the form data, it just sits there. Is there some way to change the "turn my site off" setting by manually editing a php file maybe?

I just need to get back into the site, then it will be easily fixed. If anyone can help, it would be so appreciated.

Help customizing news module?

I am trying to customize the news module to fit a site, and for the life of me can't figure something out...

On the News home(news_index.html), on the bottom right of each article is a link to the comments section:

Comments(#of comments)

I have disabled comments for this module, so would like to remove this reference to them. How do I do this? I have looked in all the template files for the module, and can't find it anywhere. I assume it has to be in news_index.html, but it isn't, all the other stuff for the page are, but nothing about the comments, or any links to it. I just need to find a word, and delete it, is it really this hard? lol

Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
