Hello Thorn,
it was a lot of fun to me contributing to your work on this.

I love the self-resizing ability of the textareas.
Have tested in all Browsers (on XP) and it works like a charm.

Should be standard for Modules where you have to adjust the HTML Output (like in Loops etc.).

This makes "baking" even more FUN!!

Regards,
Stefek

Hello,

the autogrow issues are fixed in 2.8.3

Hello,

just released 2.8.4 containing another bugfix.
http://addons.websitebaker.org/pages/modules/page-modules.php
While hitting save with a growfield-textarea being empty, growfield sends "11\n11" as value from this textarea.
Applied all growfield changesets up to r10 to fix this.

I found a little bug in the guestbook's email-notification. The backlink within the message is always shown as WB_Path/pages/(page of the guestbook)
So it only works correctly if the guestbook-page is in the root-directory.
cheers,

hello

there is a mistake in info.php

Code:

$module_version = '2.8.3';

so long

Hi,

I just updated from 2.7 and all is well at my test page which resides on a subdir of my normal page.

But on the normal page something seems to be gone wrong. The frontend.css doesn't seem to be loaded correctly (like giving up at gbtitle) on firefox 3.05 while everything looks fine with the IE 7.

The guestbook is at http://www.hsv-eishockeynachwuchs.de/pages/gaestebuch.php. Any idea?

[thorn]

Hello,

cleaning the browser-cache on firefox should help.

[Ritschie]

Thank's a lot. It worked.

Unfortunately, i can't reproduce this. -- Anyone else having this issue?

The link used in the eMail is build from

Code:

$link = WB_URL.PAGES_DIRECTORY.$row['link'].PAGE_EXTENSION;

with $row['link'] being the guestbook's link from DB-Table pages.
So, i can't see who this problem may occur.

hello,
where can I find this code line? I thought there could be something wrong with the line from gstbk_save.php where I thought the email is built from...

Code:

//send mail
...
$mail_message = $MOD_GUESTBOOK['MAILMESSAGE'].'<a href="'.page_link(  '/'. page_filename( get_menu_title($page_id)) ).'" target="_blank">'.page_link(  '/'. page_filename( get_menu_title($page_id)) ).'</a>';

Hello,

looks like a old version of gstbk_save.php

The actual version has this code:

Code:

   //send mail
    if($admin_email!=''){
        $mail_subject = $MOD_GUESTBOOK['MAILSUBJECT'];
        $mail_message = $MOD_GUESTBOOK['MAILMESSAGE'];
        // append link to message
        $mail_message .= "<a href=\"$link\" target=\"_blank\">$link</a>";
        // add guestbook-text to message
        $mail_message .= "\r\n\r\n$name_clean_html [$ip_addr] ($email_clean_html - $homepage_clean_html)\r\n$message_clean_html";
        $wb->mail(SERVER_EMAIL,$admin_email,$mail_subject,$mail_message);
    }
   
    // close geoip-database
    if(defined('GEOIP_DATABASE_LOADED'))
        geoip_close($gi);

        // jump back to guestbook
        exit(header("Location: $link"));
   
}

Please check your module-version.

ok, that's it. I don't know which version it was before, showed me 2.8.3 but perhaps for some reason the gstbk_save.php was even older...however, now it works well. thanks.

is there a bug that when you hit settings and then save them that they all disappear? so lost all the settings.

--EDIT--

Layout settings get lost after saving..

[thorn]

Hello,

what settings did you use: textarea, autogrow or codepress?

thorn.

[Bramus]

Thorn, i just installed the module and when i go to the settings and for example remove the smiley's and when i save all the settings in the code area's are gone.

The standard is codepress. Should i change this to get it to work?

[Stefek]

Hello Bramus.

A small test with another editor settet up for the Loops would be nice.
Let us know what happend.

BTW. Which Browser are you using?

Regards,
Stefek

[thorn]

Hello,

attached you will find guestbook 2.8.5

I just removed codepress support, and added support for editarea instead.
(Codepress is removed from SVN since changeset 910)

To make use of editarea, you have to install editarea from
http://www.websitebakers.com/pages/admin/admin-tools/editarea.php
ATTN: It is not a module. Unzip it, and transfer (FTP) the directory "editarea" into the include/ directory.

Hello,

just tested guestbook 2.8.5 on WB SVN-Version 913. Works like a charm also the editarea inclusion is great. Have only one smaller display issue when i edit the css-files of the modul. The editarea window expands the WB backend. This also was in guestbook version 2.8.4. with the same WB version. Can anyone reproduce this?

I saw the same issue as reported by Bramus. After saving the settings the layout settings are gone and as a result the guestbook is not displayed anymore on the website. I've posted a seperate message on this a short while ago, before I saw this post.

Any idea how to fix it?

[thorn]

Hello,

@Bramus, Ramon
Did you test with 2.8.5? Did the layout-settings get lost with textarea or autogrow, too?
