Hi, I just tried to register and it looks like you have some sort of path issue, when you click the submit button to register onec all details have been filled out it directs tohttp://modules/profile/register.php

check mainfile.php and see what the path to your site is, it could be some issue with your host/server as you also have 3 slashes /// in your urlhttp://soldiers.ifastnet.com///modules/profile/register.php

which probably shouldnt be there.

ghia, thanks your code worked like a charm, another handy little tip to remember. Thanks.

@mariane, I absolutely love the design of your site, it is very proffesional looking, i especially love the icon links on the top right they look very cool.

Hi Ghia, thanks for your reply. is the smarty code with the ID referring to the module ID? also can i out the smarty code inside style.css or does it have to go inside theme.html?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

I am having a bit of trouble trying to figure out a particular problem.

I have created a new theme for a clients site and I have navigation tabs just under the header of the theme, I am not using xoops Main Menu.

The navigation tabs will consist of Home, parties, previous parties, about us and gallery.

The site is not very large, about 5 pages so for info that wont be updated much (about us, parties, previous parties) I want to use just one content module and create these pages within the content module.

However I want to have the different menu links highlighted whenever some one is on one of those pages, I can do this if one menu item related to just one module using



where #nav-about is the id of the li item of my menu and #content is the body id generated by the module but I cant figure out how to have just one menu item selected for one page of the same module with the same module id, i.e if someone goes to the about us page at modules/content/index.php?id=page1 the about us menu item will be highlighted but so will parties and previous parties because the are on the same module.

Does any one know of a way to make what I am trying to do work?

Thanks

Yea, IE sometimes doesnt play the game when it comes to css and positioning.

In the themes css file look to see how the banner is positioned i.e float, absolute, relative and try and change some values to see if it moves, test in both ff and ie.

As for your centering of the theme with the div wrapped around the entire site try this instead: in the theme html file locate the css rules for body and if if its not already there change it to



this should center the webpage in the browser screen, remember to remove the divs you added.

If i am understanding correctly you want to make the text size of one link in big font?

try

<span style="font-size:x-large"><a href="http://yourlink">YOUR BIGG TEXT</a></span>

font size is pretty much deprecated now its always best practice to define presentation in css, the style="font-size:x-large" in the above code is the css rule to make the text within the span tag extra large size.

Another way of doing it is to give your <a> anchor tag an id (or class if you want to use it more than once on the same page) and set a css rule fot it in your theme css, example

<a id="mybigtext" href="http://www.link.com">Big text here</a>

and in the css file of your theme you can type

#mybigtext {font-size:x-large}

or wrap link in <span id="mybigtext"></span>

Hello xoopsers,

I would like to ask you, especially module/core devs about Object Oriented Analysis and Design, why? Because I am currently studying the subject at university as part of my BSc Information Technology and to be honest I just cant seem to get my head around it.

So my question is, do any devs use these methodologies to develop modules or the core? i.e when starting a new module do use use case diagrams and use case descriptions, class diagrams etc to aid in the development of the module? if so could you provide some examples of some previous work if possible?

You see I can understand the concept of use case diagrams, you have actors who interact with a system to initiate a certain function ( a use case), the trouble I am having is reading through the scenarious provided by the lecturer and picking out what would be a use case and what would be an internal system function, so I am hoping if i seen some examples from a software a system I am already familiar with(xoops) then hopefully I might be able to understand it a bit better.

Thanks.

I would also like to see this feature in the tag module.

I think it would require hacking hte module code to make only comma a valid dilimiter then for the url though you would need to replace the space with _ and im not sure how you would do that.

Hello, as a user of both xoops and wordpress I thought I would give my oppinion.

I dont really think you can argue which is better it really depends on what you want to do or what you want the CMS to do for you.

Perhaps discussing some pros and cons of both systems might be a good idea..

I feel xoops is better for sectioning content i.e a news section, a gallery section, a static content section, etc, in my experience with wordpress I dont think you can do that type of thing with plugins, you can add pages though, I could be wrong but thats why I like xoops better for some things.

On a module/plugin debate wordpress has more plugins and therefore more functionality, xoops modules are still a bit all over the place right now and there are alot of half finsihed unsupported modules some of which are really good which makes it a shame they are not completely finished or supported. Xoops does have a decent forum module and other good modules which wordpress does not have though(i dont think).

From a developer point of view...hmm i prefer xoops but ive been working xoops for a long time and i know how to use it, nothing too advanced but i know how to create themes form scratch, modify templates and some php code so I find xoops easier to use in that respect but only because I havent really tried to learn wordpress.

From a user point of view i would say wordpress is easier to use, the xoops core i find is very easy to use(system module) however some modules are rather confusing to use on the admin side and if you couple that with the different frameworks you may need and bugs then it can become a bit of a nightmare, with that being said though there are a lot of easy to use, stable modules.

As for security, im not sure about that one, I believe xoops is pretty secure and the core team are usually quick to patch a core security flaw, however modules are a different story. Ive not heard of any major module security flaws recently though.

To be perfectly honest i think it all boils down to what you need from the CMS, maybe let your project stakeholders mess around and evaluate both of them and see what they think.

It is the redmexico admin GUI, you have to install it to use RMcommon and other RM modules like quick pages.

I use it myself it is good, there is one issue though I have noticed, in blocks admin it will cut off the edit/delete/clone links if you're screen resolution is 1024x768 or lower.
