There was one, but I can't find it either.
Maybe someone that has it will see this and make it available.

Do you have a lot of users?


John

Thanks, I'll release the Alumni Module tonight.

John

Mamba,

I have added this to my modules, do I have permission to use the Icons from the Marquee module and xpayment module? I want to ask since they are graphics.

I made it so you don't need to use Xoops 2.5.0 to use the Module, if not using 2.5.0 it will use the standard Xoops GUI.

If so I will release the Alumni Module first, then the Jobs Module, then Classifieds.
Alumni is ready now.

Thanks,

John

Do you have the upgrade patch from 1.3.10 to 2.0?

Can you set your homepage to none before your upgrade, or in the database?

The best way to do an upgrade like that is to deactivate (NOT UNINSTALL) all modules except the system module, then activate them one by one after the upgrade to see which ones will might you trouble.

John

I figure with an error message like that I should be able to recreate it. So I finally did.

Replace your jobs/admin/header.php file with the one below:

header.txt

Copy it and change the name to header.php and replace your old one.

Thanks for pointing that out.

John

I can't recreate this so lets try to figure it out.

Did you make any changes to the admin/submitlisting.php page?
Did you make any changes in preferences? So I can try the same setup as you.
Did you replace the formselect.php?

I notice some errors with the show_state set to no, I will fix them this weekend, but they are not your error.

Anything that could help.

Edited: Was this a fresh install or an upgrade from a previous version?


Thanks,

John

Please read whole post.

This post was originally about select boxes not checkboxes. But they both seem to have this problem.

First I never said my fix was the right fix, it just works for my modules.

First, Why would you not want to fix the core? Shouldn't it work under any circumstance?

Second, No I can't change the size of the select box.

It would be better if the core was changed to fit all uses. I would prefer that I and users of my module not have to change the core, the core team should change the core.



Peekay says that if you remove that code all together it works correctly. How can that be? There must be double code. MAYBE that is where the core team should look. But this has never worked in any version of Xoops, so I think it is time to fix this.



Satrebil has found the same problem with checkboxes, Please fix the core!



Thanks,

John

xoopsgallery with xoops 2.3.3b


I had a site that was running Xoops 2.0.18 and I desperatly wanted to upgrade but I had a photo gallery made with xoopsgallery that had over 1600 pictures in it so I had no good way to upgrade the site and still have the gallery work. I thought others might be interested so here is how I did it.

first I had to get all the pictures out of the old gallery. I had about 50 albums so I took all the original .jpg's out of the albums and put them in a separate folder with the same name as the album they came from.

Then I deactivated all the modules in the old site and Upgraded the xoops site to Xoops 2.3.3b had no problems.

Then

I downloaded xg2_1_rc4_with_xoops_2_3_3_fixes
I downloaded [url=http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2ownload]gallery version 2.3.1[/url]

1. I deleted everything from the xg2.1/engine folder.

2. I added everything from the gallery2 folder into the now empty xg2.1/engine folder.

3. upload and follow the directions givin in x2g. I did not activate the url rewrite module when that time came because somewhere I read that could mess things up.
You may need to make a file called login.txt in the modules/YOUR_GALLERY/engine folder
and copy and paste the number given during the authorization part at the begining of the installation.

4. after you follow those directions you will need to go into the xoops modules admin, go to the gallery, go into preferences and look at the bottom for Configuration Complete? check 'yes'

5. when you go to xoops modules admin > gallery > admin index you will see
Export 'your_user' to the image gallery here - click on here you will be added
Export All Xoops users to the image gallery here - click on here all users will be added, you will see a list of all users
Export All Xoops groups to the image gallery here - click on here - all groups will be added


The main thing is that the users will not be added to the new gallery until they login and go to the gallery.
Not everything works perfect, but it is really good enough to use.

The things you can't do as an admin in the Xoops side you can do if you log in to the gallery itself at
yoursite.com/modules/YOUR_GALLERY/engine/

you may need to go into modules/YOUR_GALLERY/engine/config.php and look for this:

$gallery->setConfig('mode.embed.only', false);

If it is set to 'false' you can access the gallery through this link:

yoursite.com/modules/YOUR_GALLERY/engine/

If it is set to 'true' you can not access the gallery that way, only through Xoops


It didn't take long to add the old photos back, now I have an up to date version of the gallery.

I just need to wait till everyone logs in so I can regive them permission to add to their albums.


I thought someone might be interested in this that is why I am posting it.

If anyone tries and has problems I will TRY to help, post here.


Good Luck,

John

Thats right, I guess that good enough.


John

Mamba that was quick to put up a new folder, thanks,

Maybe there should be a newer upgrade folder for Xoops 2.3.x and 2.4.x as well.
Maybe call it Upgrade Packages and once inside have subfolders for 2.0 versions, 2.2 versions, 2.3 versions, 2.4 versions.
There needs to be a place for every upgrade package out there.
