I've just installed the XF Guestbook module and it looks good.

The only problem is I've disabled email addresses being required when someone posts a message, but it still needs a valid email address before the message can be posted successfully

Also I would like to delete the field of message title completely, what would I need to delete in which file to do that ?

Thanks.

a bug
In sign.php after case "preview" and case "post" change this line
if (!checkEmail($email) ) $msgstop .= _MD_XFGB_INVALIDMAIL.'';

with
if ($option['opt_mail'] && !checkEmail($email) ) $msgstop .= _MD_XFGB_INVALIDMAIL.'';


v2.22 available here

i'm glad you are still improving the module cats.

i've upgraded to your newest version, and found 2 things no working:
1) i lost all my previous guestbook records (i am upgrading from version 2.1 to 2.2). i found out it is caused by the upgrade script is hardcoded as follow:
ALTER TABLE `xoops_xfguestbook` RENAME `xoops_xfguestbook_msg`;
ALTER TABLE `xoops_xfguestbook_msg` CHANGE `xfguestbook_id` `msg_id` INT( 11 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;
ALTER TABLE `xoops_xfguestbook_msg` ADD `photo` VARCHAR(25) default NULL;

my XOOPS tables have been changed to not using xoops_ as the prefix (as suggested by the gijoe on security issue, so i have changed it). note: i'm really worried actually by changing the prefix name, will i have the similar issue later for any upgrade on other modules...

2) on the 'newest guestbook' block, i need to change:
<{$smarty.const._MI_XFGB_BNAME1}>

to

<{$smarty.const._MB_XFGB_GOTOGB}>

to make it work. as the available const in that block is _MB_XFGB_GOTOGB as you specified in the blocks.php.

You shouldn't. No module developer should ever rely on a fixed prefix - that's the whole idea of having it in the first place.

However, I also tend to forget to remove the prefix, when making a SQL dump from phpMyAdmin.

I have a real hard time getting view permissions for Anonymouse users on the XF Guestbook module. I have set the radio button to allow Anonymous users to sign, but when I try to access the module as an anonymous user I get the message "You do not have permission to access this module". What am I doing wrong?

you need to also grant the access privilege to the anonymous users through the edit group function in system admin (system -> groups; and grant the access to anonymous for the xfguestbook).

Thanks for your help theCat

Is there any way to have the message title field as optional in the same way the email field is optional ?

TIA

Hi All
I have a problem with the module: I'm using a wysiwyg for the whole site, all is great, but in XF Guestbook , the html of the wysiwyg is showing at the massages:

<p><font style="background-color: #33cc00">my texts here ....fonttext .......<br /><br /><strong><u>Tzvooku>strong><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />p><p>&nbsp;p>


I looked @ the code, but didn't recognise the cause of this

Is there any way of Enabling Html in massages ?
