If you go to the admin menu, click on the Forum icon, then choose Index, you will see an About link at the top of the page Clicking that will show you the version running. I am not sure if that was implemented in RC3, though, as I am running the latest version. One issue is that the 2.02 update still has 2.01 in the xoops_version file.

Using png transparency attribute in Xoops pages

I use tinyD to show several html pages on my site, including the home page. I'd like to use png images with transparent backgrounds on my home page (which is html in tinyD) but, of course, those are not rendered correctly in MSIE for Windows. I know there is a png hack in newBB2, and I know there are a couple of scripts that can be found on the web for forcing IE to properly show such transparent pngs. I'd like to figure out how to use one of these scripts in a tinyD html page.

Does anyone have any experience doing this, or know how it should be done?

I did search and the only relevant module I found (by Googling) was regkeys, which apparently allows you more control over the registratioin process and to allow members of certain groups rights to conrol the registration process. From what I can read about it, it doesn't do quite what I have in mind.

Does anyone know of a module that could be used to assign a new member to certain XOOPS group(s) after the person has paid to join an organization? I run a web site for a hobbyist organization. Members commonly join online, using Paypal. These days everyone expects instant gratification once they have joined and to receive a user ID and password immediately. I'd like to be able to add the person automatically to our Members Group, assigning a user ID and password, and emailing the new member.

Probably asking a lot, huh?

The home page on my site is html rendered using TinyD as a wrapper. I'd like to add a block from a module (news) below the html. However, if I add a center block center, it appears above the html. Is there any way I can force the block to appear below the html?

Thanks,

Thanks SMD. I downloaded and installed the module, but I can't find a way to set preferences, etc. The module doesn't appear in the list on the left side of the admin page. It also does not appear in the list of modules for module admin rights under Groups/Webmasters.

I am not sure if the module has installed correctly.

Note that I posted a message about this in your Xoops/troubleshooting forum. Reply in the forum you think is best.

I appreciate your help.

List members module

I would like to find a module that works like the Find Members module that comes in Xoops, but that only returns members of certain groups. For example, I have a site on which anyone can register, but certain of those are added by the admin to a Club Members group. If one uses Fnd Members one gets all of the registered users. I'd like a similar function in which only Club Members were returned. Ideally one would be able to stipulate what information is returned, such as userID, real name, email, street address etc, or any combination of those.

Does anyone know of such a module?

One big problem with Agenda-x is that it does not support input from the Macintosh.

If a user on Macintosh adds an event, the feedback says the event is added, but in fact it is not....

Has anybody been able to solve this issue?


In the earlier versions of AgendaX there were problems with the code for the popup calendar on the Mac. Dennis has implemented a new popup and it works on the Mac, at least it does using OS X 10.3

There were no more replies to this, but I figured there MUST be some other firewall-like activity going on on my machine, so I started to dig. The solution seems too simple in retrospect.

As previously stated, I run Norton Internet Security Pro 2004. I had the firewall turned off, as I have a hardware firewall. However:

In NISPro there are other firewall-like functions. In particular there is Privacy Control. By default, this blocks sending of web browser information. If you click Custom Levels and uncheck Browser Privacy, it allows the browser to properly communicate with XOOPS and you can register, edit accounts and so on in a normal way. My old machine had NIS2003, so the 2004 edition may be more rigorous.

As a lot of people run NISPro, or similar, I think it is important to have on record that there are functions other than the personal firewall that can block proper communication between a browser and Xoops.

Just terminology. Read server for computer. I assume you have mySQL and php running on your server. You need to download the package using the link already given. I unpacked it to my local hard drive, then uploaded the files to the server. They need to be in a classifieds folder at the site's root directory (e.g. public-html). Then run the installation script by accessing it with a browser, as described in their install directions. It's pretty straight forward.

My installation is behind a member only password protected directory. If the installation that you have seen (ie bicycles) isn't enough, let me know by PM and I'll give you temporary access to my installation.
