In XOOPS 2.5.7 Release we have updated jQuery and jQuery UI:

- jQuery to 1.11.0
- jQuery UI 1.10.4

This means that some modules that utilized older version might need to be updated as well, as it was the case with Publisher.

I have made some changes to Publisher so it runs on XOOPS 2.5.7, and if you would like to test it, please go to our SVN and click on the "Download Snapshot" link.

Please note:

a) This version is developed and tested ONLY on XOOPS 2.5.7
b) this is still in Beta, so your feedback is appreciated, and there will be few more changes coming.
c) the TCPDF library has been updated and moved to

/xoops_lib/vendor

If you would like to test PDF, you can download it from our SVN as well (use the "Download Snapshot" link)

Some other changes in this Beta:

- updated to XOOPS 2.5.7 version of jQuery UI Tabs (noo-b/mamba)
- added ID column in Admin's Category view (mamba)
- fixed preg_replace /e in request.php (mamba)
- added Views column in Admin's Articles view (mamba)
- ensured that short_url is under 255 characters (mamba)
- added import from C-Jay Content (mamba)
- added import from xNews (bleekk, mamba)
- moved all images, CSS, and JS files to /assets (mamba)
- renamed .html Smarty templates to .tpl (mamba)
- added Preference option for PDF icon (cifug/mamba)

I am not sure if I'll have the time to do it, but if somebody else contributes a code, we'll be glad to incorporate it into Publisher...

These will be as part of the theme, not part of the module.

hope some of the change listed in the xbootstrap publisher changelog can be review and implement in svn publisher

so we don't need to hack publisher to fully use xbootstrap like right now

as eg
+ in class/item.php seperating smarty who_when in who and when
this will be useful when user dont want to show the author of an article

1) when did you download the files? Do you have the latest code (check in the SVN)

2) it's also possible that in the database in "modules" table the version was equal to the current version, i.e. 102, so the update wouldn't be activated.

Make sure that you have the latest code, and before you're doing the update, make sure that the version in the DB for Publisher is 101 or lower.

hi noo-b,

I have done the changes to the Publisher module to make it work better with the bootstrap theme.
you are right, now you have to hack the module so it works perfect with the theme.

If I find some free time I will merge these files to Publisher so hacking is no more required. Before I have to make sure that this does not affect other themes that use publisher

Hello ....

After upgrading publisher with the above upgrade package all changes made by the xbootstrap team gone. To avoid complete mess, a collaboration with bleek (or any other which made the changes) would make smoother the publisher upgrade for end users. Publisher contains many hardcoded elements like the Breadcrumb. To properly display all the elements of publisher, designer had to made some changes to the code of some php files, which are contained in the xbootstrap package (in extras folder).
I hope for a collaboration of teams so the end-users have the correct results.

With the above changes (which break the look) the tabs work normally. That still not working (perhaps a bug) is the date in my local format d/m/Y. As in previous versions of xoops I've made all changes in global.php file, but the publisher still "wants" (only when publishing an article) the date as m/d/Y. If the date given in this format then displayed as defined in global.php.

In case the choice of date made from (javascript) calendar then in the article shows in the position of the day the month and vice versa. If the value of the day is greater than 12 then as the article date displayed 01-Jan-1970.

And one final question unrelated to the above. How can I change in my language the verbal of month that displayed in publisher articles.

thanx
Kostas

Hi Kakos, thanks for the testing and feedback! Very much appreciated!

Bleekk will be looking at that. But what exactly is broken now? Which template, and in which place? Maybe there is a quick fix for it?

[EDIT] I see that in the file:
\themes\xbootstrap\modules\publisher\xoops_and_module_changes\modules\publisher\item.php

there is missing "/assets/":

$xoTheme->addScript(PUBLISHER_URL '/js/behavior.js');
$xoTheme->addScript(PUBLISHER_URL '/js/rating.js');

It should be:

$xoTheme->addScript(PUBLISHER_URL '/assets/js/behavior.js');
$xoTheme->addScript(PUBLISHER_URL '/assets/js/rating.js');

Please change it and let us know if this fixed your issue.

We definitely don't want anything being hard-coded, so if you see anything, please let us know.

Good to hear that the tabs are now working correctly. Sorry about the broken look, but once the xBootstrap folks fix the templates, everything should be OK. I guess, the templates were pointing to the old CSS/JS files.

If the date given in this format then displayed as defined in global.php.

There were already few discussions about it - we don't recommend to use the slashes in European dates like this: "d/m/Y". PHP thinks that when there are slashes, it is a US/UK format, and reads the first number as month, and not as day. Please use "d-m-Y", as recommended by Trabis 3 years ago

I am not sure, I understand. Can you help me step by step what you do, how you use the JavaScript calendar, so I could replicate it.

Normally all local changes should be done in your local language files, for example in: \language\YOURLANGUAGE\calendar.php
if you look at Publisher's file:
\modules\publisher\archive.php
the Publisher pulls the month names from the "calendar.php" file by building the array: $months_arr
