jfkafka Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) The array that is sent to the infobox code can contain any data and/or formatting, as long as it is valid. The infobox code then takes that and inserts it into a table and displays it. Thee's nothiing special about the infobox call. It is just a way to draw a table over and over without having to write the code each time. But the tables are fixed. If you want to change those, you either need to add a new class to the includes/classes/boxes.php file, insert code into the array, as explained previosuly, or just remove the infobox call and build your own table using the data in the content array. Hi Jack, Wow, that infobox code (includes/classes/boxes.php) is not for the fainthearted- I should know, I just came to! Anyway, it took awhile but by combining the various classes into one mega 'hybrid' class, it now works - thanks very much for the direction. jk Edited October 25, 2010 by jfkafka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakays Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 (edited) Hi, I posted my admin/articles.php with the modifications to make the multiple languages update in the admin area. See it at http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/1709 . Jack, excuse me for posting it in your add-on as I know you do not appreciate playing around with your contributions (that we all love!) but as so many have this problem I hope this fix is OK for you. thanks again for this awesome contribution. Barbara Thank you Barbara for your up-date but it does not work here. I have added an article for test but only the first language version is filled in the table articles_description. By the way I have found 2 other issues : 1 - when I want to edit in the admin an existing article only the Author, Article Name and Meta Description can be seen, nothing regarding the article content. (I am using CK Editor) 2- When one of my customer send an article I can have all information in the MySQL tables except the articles_image name. And cannot find either the file into article_manager_uploads directory. Edited November 2, 2010 by kakays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack_mcs Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 It depends on what version you are using. Try posting one problem, along with the version you are using, and see what happens.

matrix2223 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Hi Jack< A few question on this, Im using sts 4.6 with it turned off. Once installed the script stops at the article box in the right column, not continuing to the footer.

Jack_mcs Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Yes it is the newest version. For general purposes on this addon would it work better with STS or BTS or neither? Once installed, it wouldn't make a differnece. But the installation would be different, at least for BTS. I don't recall ever trying it in an STS shop, though I'm sure someone must have at this point.

If you don't want to install Header Tags SEO, which I can't imagine why not since Header Tags Controller is not helping you much at this point, and you can't uninstall the version you installed, then you're out of luck. You'll need to either pay someone to fix the code for you or start over. Next time, be sure to remember the first rule of any change - do a backup.

I thought this contrib have some function what cooperate with the Header Tag SEO and an advanced user can tell me were are this codes exactly, and I put an symple if statement (If HEADER_TAGS_INSTALLED==True Then...) before this functions... I touhgt is easier than I downgrade or uninstall or anything else... I don't understand why develop this contrib on two lines (with or without Headar Tags)... Sorry for the question...

No, puting code in like that won't work since parts of the original contribution were removed or changed in the 1_57 version. Doing what you suggest might work for the most part but will probably fail on you at some point. As for the reason, Article Manager has always used the Header Tags Controller code. But that contribution is no longer supported and it is not a good idea to use it since it is missing some important options needed for modern SEO. Article Manager isn't my contribution and no one was supporting it. So I decided to change it so it is compatible with Header Tags SEO. The other version is there for people like you that don't want to upgrade for some reason. But my time is limited and I don't want to support a dead version.

Jack_mcs Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 So...Jack_mcs has said several times that he does not know the cause of this error, which is fair enough. Has anyone else figured it out? I'm experiencing it also, of course. FWIW, I'm using Header Tags SEO v.3.2.3, and Article Manager 1.57 (5_1a) on top of STS 4.6, in OSC v2.2 RC2a, with PHP 5.2.13. If I find a solution, I will post it here. Thanks, all. Better late than never. :) I finally ran into a site that had this problem after a new installation. The cause is that the mysql file sets the topic id of the first topic to 0, which causes the code to endlessly loop for some versions of mysql. The fix is to change the id from 0 to 1 in the topics and topics description tables, or just delete them. If you have other entries, then change the 0 to some number not yet used but then add a new topic to be sure the auto increment field is set correctly.

AntoniusFM Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Hi there, I just finished installing this great contribution (V 1.57_5). It all seems to work well, but for some reason i can't get TinyMCE to work properly with this Contribution. The TinyMCE installation works OK, because if i use it to send an email it works fine. The problem is the TinyMCE enabled text fields, for some reason the entered text isn't saved to the DB. If i switch of the the (HTML) TinyMCE editor, the text is saved. When i enable the debug flag for TinyMCE, it will show me the following errors when i go to the article manager (Topics the same problem), which is obviously causing my problem; Error: Could not find element by id or name: topics_description[1] Error: Could not find element by id or name: articles_description[1]These are the the text areas defined in the admin/articles.php, and not recognized (found ?) by TinyMCE, has anybody a idea what can cause this ? I haven't touched the admin/includes/javascript/tiny_mce/general.php which is using the below initialization parameters; mode : "exact", elements: "<?php echo $mce_str ?>", Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
