Apply a template to a XoopsThemeForm

Hello,

Is it possible to apply a template to a XOOPS form? I want the form layout to be different depending on the theme of the site. When adding an element to the form, they all get added on a new line on the page. I would like to decide in the theme whether a form element will be added to the current line, or moved to the next.

thanks in advance

Re: Webinstall and reCaptcha

reCaptcha : that could be turned into a module, and hooks into the core. This might be difficult however.

Webinstall : if you want some security, you will need to devise a way to store hash signatures on a server, with the webinstall verifying if the signatures match before proceeding with the install.
Doing that might also give the impression to users that you vouch for the files that you distribute, making them come to you when a badly written module screws up their site, or makes it vulnerable.
Making XOOPS easier to install will lower the barrier, and will create an influx of users that in many cases don't have a clue what they're doing. The number of support requests will certainly rise sharply.
I'm not saying not to do it. Having an easy setup routine is great. XOOPS needs the resources (time, people and bandwidth) to make it work as smoothly and professionally as possible.

Okay, great Thanks for the answer.

I seem to have a hole in my XOOPS documentation. I'll have a look for the XoopsForm description.

Thanks

How to fill a combobox from a database table

Hello,
I have a table with categories, and I want the members to choose one of the existing categories when they submit something. Every category has a number, and I want to display the name, while I have to store the number in the second table as reference.

I thought about putting the result in an array and sending that to the template, but that leaves me with the task of doing the reverse mapping between the name and the number, something I would like to evade.

I don't know if there is any best practice for this in the XOOPS world, as this is a fairly used type of component.

Thank you for any insights

Re: Kaotik module tutorials - nothing shows

hmmm, I'll have to do a clean install maybe? I'll try that and try to change theme. The problem might be there.

Thanks for the confirmation that it's not the tutorial.

Cheers

UPDATE: I did a clean install of both the XOOPS version and the example module, and it works as expected. I must have mixed something up either in the XOOPS install or the module install.

Kaotik module tutorials - nothing shows

Hello,

I was looking for a simple, step-by-step module tutorial, and came across these ones :
Kaotik Biz

The first part of the tutorial works like a charm, but when I want to try the second part, the screen is inexplicably blank where the module should be. The rest of the site renders, but the module doesn't. When I check the debug output, the SQL statements that are used in the module are executed, so I think it has something to do with the template somewhere...

At the moment I'm using XOOPS 2.0.16 (clean) on a XAMPP windows setup. Any ideas would be very appreciated.

Thanks for the reply!

I think I'll have a good look at the myXoopsForge module for the time being.

XForge/Xoopsforge - status and use?

Hello,

I am looking for an update on the XForge module. If I'm not mistaken, that's the module that is handling the dev.xoops.org site.
I have been searching the XOOPS site for some news about it, but I haven't seen anything more recent than 2002 on Sourceforge site.

What is the status on this module? Is it still usable on 2.0.x? Is anybody working on it, or is there an alternative for project management?

Thanks

If I understand it right, you mean that the orignal message is always in sight, even if you scroll down to the replies. That has one problem : when the original message is so long it doesn't fit on the screen. Maybe show the first n lines

I had the same problem with the 2.0.6 release on IE. Could it be that the form elements like dropdown elements and such are always on top? Not sure.

Thanks,
David
