The XOOPS Multilanguage hack of hsalazar has been improved again !
- It now supports XOOPS version 2.0.6 - Different new hacks have been added to support more translated elements of XOOPS - The comment titles are now translated.
After taking a deep look at some modules out there, I decided to write ShortUrls from scratch and slightly change the way it works.
I added 'dynamic' support for other modules so you don't have to wait for me to release a version of the hack supporting your favorite module. This have a lot of advantages but may also have a few drawbacks I may be unware of.
Inspired by the famous Google Tap mod for phpNuke, I've just finished to implement a ModRewrite for URL rewriting in xoops.
This mod rewrites most important URLs into search engine-friendly URLs, removing query strings which are sources of problems. These rewritten URLs allow bots to crawl your website. Due to high bandwith consumption with Google Tap and phpNuke (this mod works so well that google bot sometimes crawl 100.000 pages per month !), I wrote a script which protects your bandwidth by forbidding bot crawling on URLs without your "WWW" subdomain, which is the main source of consumption (However, you may not use this script if you want).
This is an updated version of my Internet Explorer 5.X CSS functions.php hack from version 2.0.5.2, and is for use with Xoops version 2.0.6. What this modified functions.php file does is separate pre Internet Explorer 6 browsers from the post Internet Explorer 6 browsers. When a visitor with pre Internet Explorer 6 browser connects they are directed to a CSS file called style_ie5.css, whereas visitors with post Internet Explorer 6 browsers are directed to the standard style.css file. What this means is that you no longer have to make exceptions in you style.css file anymore to get you page looking atleast viewable in both of these major version of Internet Explorer.
To apply this modified functions.php file, download it and place it in your includes folder after renaming the exisiting functions.php file for recovery purposes. From here you'll have to create an extra CSS file in for your theme called style_ie5.css and optimize it for Internet Explorer 5.X usage. I don't forsee any problems with using this, and am using it on one of my own sites at www.brashquido.org without any problems.
Here's a way in which you can run multiple xoops instances with 1 simple XOOPS install.
This would be benefitial for those running XOOPS hosting servers. (saves diskspace and you could control caching independently for each XOOPS instance)
Hi I always wanted to be able to have several URL's being served with varied content from the same backend xoops engine. I have a method that could be implemented very easily such that content served from the same backend xoops engine can be represented using URL's that stick.
Are you tired of using the internal Xoops Editor? Than its time to apply this patch to your news module. It will integrate the Spaw Wysiwyg Editor (needs IE 5.5) in your news module. You can download it in the download section here at xoops.org!
Configuration Settings - Wysiwyg Editor can be activated for Admin - Wysiwyg Editor can be activated for User submit - You can deactivate the linebreak conversion to avoid white space in front of the html code - Xoops Editor will automatically be displayed, if a user doesn't have IE 5.5
Install Instructions - If the news module isn't installed yet, install it through the modules administration firstly. - Overwrite the news module files included in Xoops 2.0.5 with the files in the package - After that update the news module
This patch doesn't make any changes to the database! Only one class file has changed, in order to display the wysiwyg content correctly.
I've written a hack for wfsection to enable ordinary users to use WYSIWYG editor instead of basic HTML editor. Originally only wfsection admin can use WYSIWYG editor. Also ordinary users can see and edit their pages inside an article list page.
There are some known bugs in this hack: Documents that uploaded with wfsection, cannot be removed or edited with this hack as ordinary user. But can be edited or deleted with admin as usual. This bug need to be fixed. I'm waiting help to fix this bug.
A tiny hack of xoopspoll is now downloadable at wellwine online.
Added features are just: - Show description of poll in vote and result screen. - Allows to view vote log in admin menu. - Allows to show result in block if expired or once voted - Layout of vote screen slightly changed.
