For your PHP.ini , is Register Globals on or off?

I have seen similar problems when Register globals is set to off

Its just a guess, but since you are not running it on a public site, turning Register Globals ON might fix it.

Just a guess.

@otr222: NP :)

@Kreateam

When changing a database field, simply updating the module does not affect the database...

You either need to use phpmyadmin or MySQL to actually edit the field...

Or you have to deactivate & uninstall the module and then reinstall the module again, and it will use your new SQL file edits when creating the module db tables.

make sure you backup your module data if you have a bunch of quotes in their already, before you uninstall it.

Does that make sense?

I plan to modify quiz 2.0 for my site to handle quizzes to specifically handle traing requirements.

This is most certainly allowed to do.

Can I do that without violating any licensing (all free, all volunteer site)

Free software refers to the idea that you are free and open to modify it to fit your needs. Whether you need it for a volunteer community or a commercial application. You are free to modify it any way you see fit.

Quote:

also, if the changes are good, how do I formally present it back as a modified module?

Since the software was issued under the GPL license, if you choose to release it, you cannot limit its distribution in any way. You can even sell it I beleive, although, you must include the full source code with all your changes. So Giving it away is usually what releasing it leads to.

If you sell it to Party A they can release it for free, and you cannot stop them from doing this, since this would be limiting its distribution.

You also need to retain the original authors copyright and credits within the code and xoops_version files. You can add your credits in it as well.

I hope i explained it properly, you can always review the GPL license available athttp://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html#GPL for details if you wish.

You have two options.

If you dont want to uninstall the module, you would need to edit the database table that holds the quote and change it from a varchar(255) to a text type.

You can also edit the /sql/mysql.sql file and locate the field that holds the quotes, and change its type to 'text'.

Making the change to the sql file will allow it to work anytime you need to install the module again.

Hope that helps,

I agree this or something similar needs to be done.

Im seeing alot of people in the forums asking questions why a module doesnt work when they have installed XOOPS 2.2

Users have no way to determine that some modules do not work in 2.2 and who knows how much it might mess up their site.

If something is not done, there will be alot of people finding another solution that works.

There are some posts in the forums, but they are hard to find for new users.

It would be nice to at least have a block with link to 2.2 modules list.

Well, those are not errors, they are PHP Notices.

Those are usually just harmless warnings.

There page we want to see if there are any errors is not the admin or the home page, but the page you get thats blank when it should be displaying the HTML you are trying to add.

If you cannot generate an error msg, I would have to look into the site itself to really help much more, myself.

Your other chance is someone else maybe seeing this thread, like the guy who wrote TinyContent :), and possibly him or them have seen this and know how to fix it.

Like I said, I could fix it, but not easily without looking at it directly, trying things, and doing alot of debugging to try to get it to work.

You could turn on PHP_Debug in General Preferences, and that might show an error, if its having an error.

That would help us to better advise on what the problem might be or how to fix it.

simply edit /modules/system/templates/blocks/system_block_login.html

then make sure you update the system module under Module Administration, by clicking the Update icon under the action column.

Then you should see the changes you made to the sysem login block template.

Hope that helps!
