I wish I had one of gestroud's dancing emoticons.

However, a big THANKS! to the developers. Looking forward to installing this module.

Are you reccomending this for use or for testing? Is it stable at rc?

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

zyspec Published 05/19/2006 18:07 Module Developer Joined 09/21/2004 Comments 1095

No we do not recommend this for a production site yet. We believe it is stable enough to warrant the 'RC' status (instead of just a Beta) however we would like to see more testing completed before it is released as a final version.

Looks good; looks good!

Question about the sponsored listings displayed on this page and this page

Are they compacted like that because of the stylesheet?

this looks very interesting

does it have the option to sort in categories (by rating, popularity, etc)?

Hello tripmon,

I followed the instructions to upgrade from xdirectory.

I'm able to view categories, but the main page is blank.

Actually did that a few times. Even deleted everything in the folder and replaced it, updated in module admin, etc. No difference.

If you want to pm me with your info, I'll try and help,but again, there are not even that many lines in the file, so it seems kinda impossible for something else not to be wrong... did you try and look at include/functions.php? Does your copy have that many lines? I don't know what else to tell you without looking at it...

Can we modify the form of this module?

Thanks in advance

Lance_ Published 05/20/2006 12:39 Home away from home Joined 01/12/2004 Comments 983

The error from Gestroud comes from the main functions file in xoops, not the one in the module.

line 615-616

 if (!isset($handlers[$module_dir][$name]) && !$optional) { 
        trigger_error('Handler does not existModule: '.$module_dir.'Name: '.$name, E_USER_ERROR);

Few things:

- wasn't there an option before to place a company in multiple categories (up to five)? I miss that here.

- While having dropdown menus for hours in Admin is a good idea, I would prefer to have it as a normal text on the user side. The same with phone numbers - I would prefer the one view similar to Folsom Living. It just reduces the number of clicks for the user.

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

hi,

Can I fix number of sub-categories to show in main page of this module?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

zyspec Published 05/21/2006 13:08 Updated 05/21/2006 13:30 Module Developer Joined 09/21/2004 Comments 1095

Mamba: The feature still exists. Just as before, it is only available on the admin side. Go to Module Admin > Yellow Pages > Categories. It's on the lower right hand side. Select the Listing you want to manage in the dropdown box and then select the "Modify this Listing" button.

Display of the business numbers, hours, etc is a personal preference. It could be changed as you state it but then someone else would want it the way it is now. Changing the full listing can be done very easily by editing the /templates/xdir_listingfull.html template. For example the business numbers are stored in a variable called $link.biznums, business hours are in $link.bizhrs. They are both displayed in the template as $smarty html_options but could easily be converted to just a foreach loop.

daibt: No you cannot restrict the number of sub-categories displayed on the main index page. Please post this as a feature request for a future version on the dev site.

DOAH!
I pulled a homer and messed up the files during packaging. Please grab the latest version (3.0.1) from the link above.

It will: fix numerous unnecessary function calls, replace admin (for everyone having description issues) and singlelink.php (won't count admin views as hits now), along with a couple other things that may have been causing issues.

Sorry bout that...

Ok I got it integrated, but some of the admin functions are not working...for instance when I go to add Category I get a blank page with-

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /hsphere/local/home/jayedon0/intershake.com/modules/mxdirectory/admin/index.php on line 1725

Is there a reason for this?

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

tripmon Published 05/26/2006 19:38 Module Developer Joined 02/28/2004 Comments 462

No reason that I know of...

Please try setting the images/shots directory to 777 (writeable) if it's not currently.

my line 1725 is:
Quote:

?>

and is the last line of the file. Please check to see if yours is the same.

If you still have problems, please post to the Bug Tracker & we can look into it further.

the submitter, the data and the e-mail...

Resized Image

i have made it in my site...

in singlelink.php, after line 48 add and/or replace code:

 $var = strftime("%B %d, %Y", $time); 
 
if ($xoopsUser && $xoopsUser->isAdmin($xoopsModule->mid())) { 
        $adminlink = 'Insert Date: '.$var.'.XOOPS_URL.'/userinfo.php?uid='.$submitter.'">Submitter: click here.XOOPS_URL.'/modules/xdirectory/admin/?op=modLink&lid='.$lid.'">.XOOPS_URL.'/modules/xdirectory/images/editicon.gif" border="0" alt="'._MD_EDITTHISLINK.'" />';

I believe msdana is correct. Further down the Administration page you will find "-----Default Level x Options" (where x is 1-5). Make sure you have the "Activate Logos in Listings" option selected for the appropriate Level.

Hi All

I've modified the function letters() to reflact hebrew chars, but it's just a workaround since the module uses PHP's chr() function (Eng only as far as I know) ... though it is better then the solution we posted a few years back ... for the Xdir, still , for using it with langs other then English there's a need of some modifications.

I think most users will have difficulties and it needs your attantions ( yes, yes ... I know .... feature request @ the dev site ... but ... no time to ... no time for nothing these days

Hey Tripmon .... long time ....

how do i change the path image for the coupon.
when adding coupon. it goes to the default /uploads/ folder where for my site. its full of junks.

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

zyspec Published 07/05/2006 12:34 Updated 07/05/2006 12:36 Module Developer Joined 09/21/2004 Comments 1095

Let me preface this by saying I haven't tried this fix, so I MAY have missed a place where this needs to be changed, but I believe this should work. As always, make a backup copy of any file you change so you can put it back if necessary.

1) In /include/couponform.php line 30 you'll see $uploadirectory = "/uploads/";. Replace 'uploads' with your new directory name (your_new_directory).

2) In /templates/xdir_print_savings.html, line 48 replace:
[size=x-small]<{if $coupon.image}><{/if}>[/size]

with:
[size=x-small]<{if $coupon.image}><{/if}>[/size]

3) Change the rights on your_new_directory to 777

4) Go to site Admin and update the Yellow Pages module.

5) Just to be sure, go to your site_url/templates_c directory and delete everything except the index.html file.

@limecity
If you do create a new folder for coupon art, 'uploads' is a good place to put it IMHO.

With a minor hack, (see my second post in this thread you can get Filemanager 3.0 to give admin users access to the uploads folder - and folders within it. This is very useful if you don't want to give admins FTP access to your site. For example, I have created a 'banners' folder there to allow uploading of web banner art.

A number of mods (e.g. SmartSection, CBB etc.) create their own uploads folders inside 'uploads'. I only wish they all did.

And that's not junk... that's where the smilies live!

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

limecity Published 07/05/2006 14:55 Friend of XOOPS Joined 07/06/2003 Comments 1602

Ah thanks for the reply.

its best for me to use a diff folder other than "uploads". the user will need to browse through 300 random images, avatars, icons when they click on "add coupon" .

i will test on the hack later on to see how it goes thanks again

Peekay Published 07/06/2006 8:54 XOOPS is my life! Joined 11/20/2004 Comments 2335

Coupons are great but it would be nice if advertisers could post their own (within set limits). Perhaps in a future version?

I have to second Peekay

cupons and logos may be attached to a listing (maybe as a choosable option @ the admin) .... logo can simply be renamed to the record number (5.jpg or 5.gif) or something like that and record owners should/may have an option to update record's logo and cupon ....

Just to test that, I tried a logo that was too big and got an error telling me the file was too big :)

btw. why are the text so crampy in the module

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released ! - Revised for xoops 2.0.15 and php5

Arowana Published 12/06/2006 20:33 Friend of XOOPS Joined 08/06/2004 Comments 323

I have given up on waiting for a full release and have hired a programmer to finish the functions that are NOT working and need to be improved.

If there is something you would like to see let me know and I will see if I can fit it in. So far this is what I got:

A way in the admin section to shut off or set to "0"
"Select the maximum number of new listings displayed on top page"

A way to shut off the "Submit" feature for anyone that is NOT an admin

A way to select multiple Categories on the Submit function If I have a listing that offers any and all categories, I want to be able to select 1 to all.

A way to disable Coupons and have it remove the hyperlinks to "Special Offers" if there is no special offers / coupons.

I use this modules with 2.016 and I do NOT see anything wrong in my debug when it comes to errors like explained by others. Sorry if I can reproduce it I cant have it fixed.

Also the reason the text is so cramped is because your css setting. Try playing with it to enlarge the text. If you cant fix it or need to help talk to Ana over a xoopsdesign.com she is great and worth the small fee she might charge.

If you want to see this module in action go to http://www.leadcareers.com it will slowly improve and more data will be entered shortly.

Note that there is a separate CSS file for this module located in the mxdirectory/images/ folder. That is where you can modify most of the text settings.

I read some sceptisism here and there about the semi permanent non-stable fase this module seems to be in. Glad to read that there is some progress though!
IMHO this seems a very usefull and needed module!
I'm looking forward to a stable release!!

Or do I miss something and is there another adequate glossary module?

I believe this is the most upto date module there is out there with all the functions everyone is looking for. xdirectory used to be it but it seems they left the project once they got their site online and never released the final files to the public.

I just hope all goes well with this module.

If there ANY features or other updates that people want / need before I sit down with the programming team on Monday?

Thanks

The part i am having trouble with the module is the MAP feature.

- Give option in admin to able to turn it on and off the map feature cause the map feature only apply to US or Australia or Canada but no other place in the world I guess.

2nd, Why is the input textbox for "STATE" limited 2 characters only? again the module is made for certain countries.

tats all i guess. the rest of the problem is the crampy text but i think I can fix that in the css.

so I do hope my thoughts are taken into consideration. its not an additional feature. its just some fix to make the module usable and applicable internationally.

We will release a final version of mxdir once 2.2.5 is released as a final and I have a chance to test the changes to the module under all XOOPS versions.

Releasing a single module version which will run under all XOOPS versions is more important than getting another non finalized release out for any reason.

The final will address (increase) the state field size, be duplicatible, and contain numerous additional changes from the beta posted here. There will be no path to upgrade / migrate from a hacked / changed version as the module moves forward (I won't offer any support).

Please note that I choose not to reply to posts where I have already answered the issues / questions elsewhere. Please help yourself by reading the readme's and using the search feature of the XOOPS site.

Once 2.2.5 is released, we will test the latest changes, release a final beta (which hopefully will only last a week or 2) and then release a final.

Ok I have looked for this and no answer to this question. I want a block that is only Sponsors to show up in.

Does anyone know the Code to do this?

I just installed this on one of my sites. Love it so far-- probably too many features for my needs.

I agree with this but have not seen a solution. Also, the ability to assign a single listing to multiple categories would seem to be an obvious need, but I can't figure out how to do it.

Thanks for the tip where to find the CSS file - wasn't logical to me. Got rid of the small caps, made all "x-small" up to "small" and all "xx-small" up to "x-small" and a few other tweaks, and I think it looks a lot better.

Merry Christmas to all Xoopsers who celebrate. Happy day to the rest!

I came to XOOPS looking specifically for a links directory.

For a directory like this to have real power, it really ought to have Search Engine Friendly URLs. Instead of http://www.leadcareers.com/Main/modules/mxdirectory/viewcat.php?cid=10

It should have something like: http://www.leadcareers.com/Main/modules/mxdirectory/computers/

If I decide to use this module, I will help by donating to help you pay for your professional programmer. Afterall - a good directory that is part of a CMS is WORTH something. I hope others feel the way I do. Some people charge for EVERY instance of a directory module like this.

Still trying to resolve the blank page, parse errors, I see that looking at the following files:

 Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in /home/user1/public_html/templates_c/use-xd_002^%%4B^4B3^4B3E9984%%db%3Axdir_index.html.php on line 3

and all the rest of the referenced file...

The error seems to be with the code:

echo ; ?>

and changing it by adding "" seems to fix the issue:

echo [color=990000]""[/color]; ?>

What I can't find is where/how the code is located or generated. I have looked all through the files source and I'm not familiar with how the template generation works.

1. Can someone tell me where I need to modify this code?

Hi James,
We were trying some experimental caching techniques using smarty and have not updated the code since the latest smarty version was added to the core (which does not support the postfilter call we were using).

I look a little more when I get some time over the weekend.

PS.. can you posy your core ver.

thanks...

zyspec Published 02/18/2007 12:44 Module Developer Joined 09/21/2004 Comments 1095

No, the project is not dead. Tripmon, the modules author, has fixed quite a few minor bugs and is adding some new functionality to the code since the RC1 release however I believe he's waiting on XOOPS 2.2.5 to go "final" so that testing can be completed before releasing the next version...

Tripmon, feel free to chime in if I'm wrong...

Re: Mxdirectory 3.0 RC1 released !

tripmon Published 03/11/2007 15:23 Module Developer Joined 02/28/2004 Comments 462

Zyspec is right, the module is not dead... I had been waiting on 2.2.5 as it was supposed to be within weeks of my post above.

With no end in sight (for 2.2.5), I'll start getting things together for another release.

The rub here is that I will only test and provide support for 2.0 branch. While this may present issues for some, it is the best way to continue adding features, etc. as the module moves forward. Chances are things will work fine under 2.2.5, but I won't be dropping forks in the code if it doesn't.

While I'm around 250 feet over my head with things to do now, I'll put aside a little time to get things rolling for the next release... it will be a couple of weeks before you see anything.

Happy XOOPSing

Yes, unfortunately, it seems like 2.2.5 will be very late, as there is no visible progress.

Has there been progress to get this module to work with XOOPS 2.0.16 and Php 5.x? I am also getting a blank page in php 5.x when accessed from the main menu.

I am greatly appreciated all your contributions and helps!!

I'm testing out the script here:

I'm getting a couple errors (like the X_Site) and submit page. Where can I find that to edit the files?

Also, when you click a state, no listings show up. I just get a white page.

unimatrix,

It appears you've edited your templates incorrectly. For example if you look at the link for one of your states it looks like

http://www.auctioneerconnect.com/modules/xdirectory/viewcat.php?cid=41

but it should be:

http://www.auctioneerconnect.com/modules/[color=#0000CC]m[/color]xdirectory/viewcat.php?cid=41

That appears to be the problem with the missing graphic (red X) too.

[EDIT] - By the way, in the future you should probably post these in the forums instead of in the comments for the release.

RC1 Download here. It seems to work with xoops2.3
I wish someone could take this module on, it's the life blood of my site, and imho the best 'Yellow Pages' style directory out there.

Zyspec said in his post above, when I asked about multi-category:

Quote:

The feature still exists. Just as before, it is only available on the admin side. Go to Module Admin > Yellow Pages > Categories. It's on the lower right hand side. Select the Listing you want to manage in the dropdown box and then select the "Modify this Listing" button.
