Do i realyy have to have two signup forms on my site I really dont want to anyway to configure the current one
hello!
when i access my homepage at index.php (root) then the virtuemart shop comes up.
and ide how i can set my own frontpage?
make the first link in the main menu goto the component you want to load
in other words replace the Home link in the main menu
ahh!
yipppeee, thanks!
just created a simple module, which connects to a non-joomla database and prints some info… problem is, now the other modules have database errors
I assume I have re-defined $DB or something like that… or is there only one connection to the database allowed at any one time?
anyone know how to go about connecting to a second database in a module?
I only know that the joomla data base is configurate in the configuration.php on the root site so if youchange this and link into a non joomla db : I sure in 99% this create error… If I have to do that you want, I will import some jos_table (for youre module) onto my configuration db
What do i need to edit to change module positions?
this si a template work, so you have to edit you're index.php template file
ok
thanks
you could read the template tutorial for more goods tips
anyone here? is there a bot / plugin for changing the title on the page. i want a little bit more dynamic there.
Hello.
Um, how can i remove 1) the 'Login form' in the side of my page and 2) The ability for users to register accounts?
oh. k@k..
and 3) How to edit the 'Contact Us' page..
please..
contact
Hardkiffeur, figured it out, had to use a $db = new database( $host, $user, $password, $dbase, $dbprefix );
1) disable the module
2) in backend in global configuration
2) and 1) …. if there's no login form pubish, 2) was difficult … if you don't publish your authentification module on the home page,but create a link on the main menu to the login form and then user could take this module to register
um.. i disabled all the modules i don't need.. but now i get a "Top Module Empty" picture embedded onto screen..
any ideas?
sry.. i was ambigious there.. i meant for 2) to be read as 'remove the ability…'
yes, thats what i meant
Allow User Registration:
kk
… about the "Top Module Empty" problem?
its when i kill teh 'Newsflash' mosule
*module
hi
when playing with authentification plugin (ldap)

hi
does someone have a xt:commerce version 3.04 ?
Hi im not sure how to edit my template to put a duplicate (bottom) module position near the top before the News items (in the middle of the page)
php mosLoadModules('wantedposition', -1); ?
add that whereever you want your modules to load
wanted postion corresponds with the position name allocated from backend?
supergreg that doesnt seem to be workiing.. maby i am doing something wrong.
hello every one.
do i have to edit the CSS also for it to work?
Is there away to display an IRC chat window in a web page?
]]mospjirc @ dipingo
[Google] http://mamboxchange.com/projects/mospjirc/ (More results: http://tinyurl.com/2292dm )
maybe its not spelled correctly, you will see the correct syntax other places in your template, just copy it
hmm syntax?
div id="bottom"php mosLoadModules ( 'bottom' ); ?/div
ty supergreg
I need to move it to tnear the top of the page
why do you want to put a position called "bottom" at the top of the page? hehe
anyways, you should probably be using -1 as I showed you (or -2), it will be easier to style with css
hi
Wich comments manager do you prefer ?
I prefer a forum discuss-mambot, for SMF or Fireboard
depends on your site, I guess
and between akocomment, joomlacoment and jreaction ?
well at this point in time I would check which are GPL 
all i know is that it is connected to bottom … and i need the module to be published right under my main banner
(jreaction is not in GPL, but exist as limited edition)
any ideas supergreg
can i show you the code?
?
not sure if you have witnessed it, but there are hefty ongoing forum threads about licensing these days: http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,181173.0.html
well then you should probably call the moduleload in another place in the template code
meaning directly after that banner
It all sounds quite advanced.. You see that module content at the very bottom of the page (google video etc) well that needs to go directly after the banner at the top, yes.. but only on the front page… not for other pages
when ever i run a function inside my component.php page, and call it again, i get a message sayin direct access to this page is not allowed
is there a way to allow a user multiple logins
?
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO MOVE A MODULE IN THE TEMPLATE???
(position)
can anyone tell me how I would use the Joomla api to write a catagory image/icon on the page? I am trying to make a change to my joomla install source at the moment but I am not a Joomla Services writter and never used the api before
hmm, I guess most everyone is still sleeping
just move the module-call
supergreg, from what I have heard from you before you can probably help if you don't mind, I basically just need to know how I can display a catagory image for a perticular story using the joomla api?
Hello, has anyone used the Community Builder component?
I'd like to know how to give users who login the capability to update their own profile.
sorry, not sure.. youre asking for the code, right? I guess com_content and com_contact both have that necessary code, since they are able to do it, but I havent had to do that yet, so not sure
i use cb but i dont know about updating their own profile, i thought they could do that striahgt away but have you checked the configuration, have you set up groups of users with it?
update"
supergreg, ok , I am gonna look over com_content then since I am already doing it, but I have to ask, what the hell does joomla do with a catagory image, I have not seen it pasted anywhere on my site for the relavent catagories
if you set an image for a menu item or category etc, you will still have to enable image display for that menu/category/section etc
supergreg, have you used cb?
not extensively, but yeah, some
well right now I am looking over code in order to get catagory images to display inside my front page stories, I think I have already found where I want to insert it, now I just need to isolate how to draw a catagory image
I am basically trying to get the slashdot effect of section icon / images per story on each story
i have several users, all with profiles, there is a field on the profile which they set what team they belong to. i want to create a page where visitors to the site can go and view a list of profils of people in each team. have you any idea how this could be achieved
supregreg, appearently for some users this screen appears, but is there a link somewhere in the login module that links to that?
btw, there's a module that does what you want
really
um… will display a catagory image on the front page inside a story?
supergreg could you take a look at the code
im not sure what to do.
for example a story in apple catagory will have show apples icon of let's say steve job picking his nose?
sure, just pastebin it and paste the link here
ok
if you have the supergreg, do you know what this module is called because I have looked but I am pretty new to joomla
sed -e 's/if you have the//g'
thats just it, I have it at home on my desktop, but am currently away using my laptop
shoot
ok
I am gonna look for it some more atm but can I pm you my e-mail address so you can send me the title when you get home?
brb
ok
hwy
whats gonig on here?

whats happenig?
I would like to add an IRC chat to my site
i wouldnt recommend that

yeah
why is that danzie
sorry about the nick
danZenie:
running an irc channel is a lot of responsibility
i don't think you're ready for that
he he
Why do I have to run it
I just want to display it
who will run it?
The channel is already there
someone runs every channel, remember
I just want to use the site to access the channel
Well then ask the owners of that channel
if theyre ok with it, its no problem, mospjirc does the job just fine
hey supergreg
I was checking that out
and I did the DL
the date was like 2004
and I got some errors
its old, but has worked fine for me
does joomla have clean-urls system?
I couldn't find info on how to install it
or who it works
ITK_Webmaster, there a SEF components avaiable
I meant how it works
what is SEF
search engine friendly
you can find these at extensions.joomla.org
thnks.
np
does joomla integrate with drupal
inttegrate is relative
??
nick]
how do you define integrate? this depends a lot on what your goals are
etc
okok.
but I'm sure the answer to what you want is "no"
how to shift from drupal to Joomla?
is it a module?
mospjirc is a component
my admin/components is unwritable
can I change that through Joomla?
What joomla blog module do you all recommend?
you can if you have joomlaxplorer installed, if not you need ftp/ssh
will this work? http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,156/Itemid,35/
what file do I edit through ftp?
chmod the folder so its writable
then chmod back after you have installed what you wanted to install
trying to call a page of my component but im gettin an error "Direct Access to this location is not allowed." any ideas?
what's the defacto form plugin?
aside from the default one.
hi
which SEF plugin should i use for my joomla 1.5 ?
supergreg, I just got back from lunch, let me have a look
supergreg, I am still reading but I doubt what I am looking for would be a module as it would affect each posted story / article on the main page, I was also looking before I left for lunch and so far I have not found anything but ya, let me read this over
supergreg, yeah, that one won't work but thanks for the heads up
bactisme, you know Joomla 1.5 really does not need one since it should not be used on any running site, Joomla 1.5 is a beta and a lot of it has a huge potential to either be broken or brake without notice
hi, need to know if I can detele or hide the pathway in my home…. using joomla 1.0.11
you should upgrade to .12. but to answer your question yes
oks… will be more especific… I can hide pathway in my template but, how can I know when is home page and not something else??
is there some var to identify my home?
php switch ($option){
case "com_frontpage":
echo "frontpage"
great…. thanks dan
np
was really easy and in from of my nose…
will be 1.0.12 last of 1.x series??
I'm not sure
there might be security fixes and what not
well I now there are several fixes, and I have others sites with 1.0.12 but I'm delaying this couse is my criticals site and when upgrade anything always have a problem… none upgrade is painless, but it's something I have to do surely
always backup before upgrading
in fact you can quickly setup a test site
mainly you have to pay attention if you changed core files
as upgrades do not change the DB
until you get into the major upgrades (1.0 to 1.5)
crrect
I'm sure not touch core files… really I'm noobe in Joomla
oks thaks guys, I will upgrade my site then…
hey i'm sure not to touch them either and i'm not a noob
hehehe…. I was a nuke user and I have bad habits to patch core files to optimize or make own hacks… but I was confused with joomla couse is really really diferent concept
indeed we try to make joomla as unpatchy as possible
1.5 gets it a lot better
phpbb is one for me where installing extensions was a list of hacks all over the system
makes security on that platform a nightmare
sure.. but I think might be a balance…. couse if you close the core some programers may field trap a limited
field trap a limited?
i don't quite get that
sorry for my bad english..hehehe I mean "they may be feel trap or limited".. hehehe
so by not hacking they feel limited?
I did not pass my toefl
in a good way to hack…. or mybe say customize?
hehehe probably I dont know what talking about, I just a joomla noob I u are long time expert power user… better return my work and thanks for help ;D
well you can hack it, we just try to encourage working around hacking where possible
the comment i make is that every hack you make you have to reapply after a security upgrade
and if you're wasting time finding hacks instead of applying the update then you're still at risk or if you just apply it and fix hacks later you're potentially breaking stuff
yeah.. thats truth
php if( $option != 'com_frontpage' ) mosPathWay(); ?
you still here
http://cgshowdown.com/index.php?option=com_mospjirc&Itemid=28
yep
I got it all installed but no option for the channel
how do I config it?
its in the component config in admin
if not there, use pjirc's guides and edit the .html files it uses
u must reed
Hi, I'm having trouble getting my mambot to retrieve parameters
on the admin side I can set and store them but when called i get nothing
and ideas?
what are you doing to load the params?
$params-get
$filename = $params-get( 'filename', 'kml file' );
does anyone know how to present category or section images inside content? for example how to put the logo you select for the apple category into any story that is posted under the apple category?
have you loaded it from the db?
hello
something like this:
global $database;
$query = "SELECT params FROM #__mambots WHERE element = 'joomla.ldap' AND folder = 'system'";
$database-setQuery($query);
$params = $database-loadResult();
$mambotParams = & new mosParameters($params);

If I want to send a password recovery mail inmediatly I have to change something?, Is there some script that manage this?
dear all. i added .test in page suffix of a wrapper menu link. Then i edit CSS #main-col-wide-800.test. i sthis correct?
http://help.joomla.org/content/view/777/125/ and that's not even in there
change joomla.ldap to be your bot and the folder its in (its in the db if you need to check) that should do the trick
i am not sure how page suffix work
thats a module
not a mambot
ahhh…gotcha…wish that were better spelled out…thanks for the help none the less
in 1.5 mambots are plugins
Does anyone use Fireboard affordable forum services for joomla?
also if you're in a function $params is going to be unavailable so use global to get at it
http://help.joomla.org/content/view/283/125/ — mambot params
Pasamio|Work, Thanks a million
i take a bit more direct approach than the docs do but either should work
dear all. i added .test in page class suffix of a wrapper menu link. Then i edit CSS #main-col-wide-800.test. is this correct?
no worries funkylb
thatīs why nobody reads docs and manuals… itīs too slow
only need to state your question once, someone will help you if they can
anyway i'm off to bed
i am sorry
like with ikea furniture… I never read the doc…. on the other hand, my tables and chairs are upside down too

If someone click on a wrapper link on the Left menu, left menu will disappear (I disable it), and the wrapper will use up the space of the left menu, but only up to 600 pixels width. How do I make it make use of the 800 pixels width?
candy, try to use a prefix and then in your css just change the with… make sure the prefix only aplies for that wrapper
-width
ok.. page prefix -width, then #main-col-wide-800-width, try it now
hi everyone
need to ask something about cache. If we set cache time to 3600 (1 hours).. what does that mean ? Is it meant that our update to any content will be refreshed in 1 hour time ?
what url?
used "-width" in page class suffix of my wrapper menu item. And added #main-col-wide-800-width{ width: 800px }
it didnt work?
url is http://www.agloco.com.sg/wrapper/3.html
candy… also add the width in http://www.agloco.com.sg/templates/madeyourweb/css/css_color_green.css
let me see… really appreciate your time.. i have been google for solution for 30 mins… trying now
I added #maincol-wide-800-div.moduletable h3 in css_color_Green.css. But didnt has effect
then i added
i see itīs wider now
in index.php and it has effect
i will need to add that in index.php?
well, you need to make it a prefix, otherwise all the content will show in the same way
thanks for your help!!!
I see you got it. also change your x-position to center in both prefix css classes, and than if you turn the scroll bars off in the wrappers settings, it would look good
seem i didnt. I cant add maincol-x-x-width in index.php. or else others content item will use that too.. My HOME, FAQ etc are using xxx-xxx-width now..
ok leave that as it is then, but remove the scrollbars anyway
using wrappers is always a bit tricky
seem like it is. sigh.. cant make use of the empty site
i will keep trying.. thanks ppl! you helped
youīre welcome
ya
Hey Guys
Anybody ever used the plugin RT Scroller News
can anyone tell me anyway to make a category image appear anywhere on my website, outside of the admin sectionj
?
I don't care how but I need it to so I can examine the code and so far I am not getting shit
if you are writing an article, there is an icon in the wysiwyg editor which enables you to insert and image into your artice, i can browse on this 2 find my pic, maybe this wwilll help just a suggestion as im still fairly new to this
wanderingii, nah but thanks
I am trying to find out how to display a category specific icon on my page, I think I have just found a way
I read a ton of stuff but I can find anything on how to add a channel
contentcategory managerclick on any category then select the drop down box next to image
right jasontm
is that what you needed?
no but I found my solution already elsewhere
ok
but from what you said I would like to know where on my website that image host appears outside of the admin section
do you have a sitemap installed for joomla? that would be the easiest
click sitemap link then click on a category name
all you will see is what articles you have listed in that category
jason I appreciate your intended help but I am not sure you have even read the question, like I said I have solved else wise but what your telling me seems near irrelevant to what I asked, but again, thank you for your help
anyone know how to display the images in a php services page used in cb?
dipingo, I've never used that component

just not what I want

cchance do a search on google….. "joomla zpanel

The only relevant search is on the zpanel site, about having Joomla as one of the scripts that are installable
Or is there any thing that will apply the new fields plus some of the others to two mysql databases?
(joomla, and zpanel
http://rafb.net/p/4QKUwY80.html

sorry, wasnt here yesterday
cc- im looking but i see nothing suggesting a link to an rss
cc- like i want it to auto populate say 3 or 4 times a day with rss content from a feed.. these newplaces seem static

hi
I'm migrating joomla from host to host and ran into a little problem
" This site is temporarily unavailable. Please notify the System Administrator"
most likely database issue
Where can I look for better error messages?
on that same message there is probably something in small font about database connection
there's only a "1"
did you create the database in your new host?
sure
did the db server name change?
did the db password change?
no, localhost and exact the same user/pw
did the path for the installation change?
did the site name change?
I changed that already in configuration.php
uh.. yes
well
if configuration.php is correct
and the db changes are correct
then everything should work just fine
wow, spam
have you tried the admin backend?
not yet, let me try
same. dammit

i have build a poker game. the users can play with it via internet. so i need a component where users can add an entry when they will open a poker game. other people should register to that event or just post a short comment like "i will join the game". it has to be simple and not to overloaded. can anybody suggest one of the many calendar/reservations components for that scope?
thanks

MySQL support not available (Either MySQL is not installed, or PHP does not have the correct modules loaded).

I forgot to reload apache
thanks for your fast help danZenie
what version of joomla are you running?
1.0.12
np loswillios
what's the standard locale for 1.0.12? I guess not utf8 cause umlauts and Ž and stuff are displayed as '?'
yeah
that's probably what happens
just do another db import
which enconding should I use?
iso-8859-1 or something?
oh wait. no
yay works
Would have been an easy thing if I weren't so stupid
does anyone use templates from joomlart? I'm using the xenia template, but for some reason I can't get the unique frontpage design to work properly. My articles aren't showing at all when I make the edit.
Do i realyy have to have two signup forms on my site? I really dont want to, anyway to configure the current one to publish some variables to a difrent DB? say for instance the name Address and password and user from the basic joomla reg, and submited twice to the joomla and zpanel database then the webhosting fields are submited only to zpanel that the rest are submited only to joomla?
this is all open source
surely there is a way
level of difficulty is another thing
most i can tollerate on a scale of 1-10 is maby 7
you have to looking building components for joomla

hi all
i have installed joomla in apache webserver, and when i try to accses it over local network , it dosent show tables or pictures
chances are you live site variable is set to something that other networked machines cannot access or it doesn't not resolve to properly
go to global config and check that its not set to local host
it is set to localhost under database and server
Live Site: http://localhost/zacero
theres your problem
but i cannot change that in globalconfig
you'll have to change the configuration.php file to make that link the name of your server
you can't change it in global config because it typically breaks sites, however in this case its already broken :p
byou can't change it in global config because it typically breaks sites, however in this case its already broken :p/b
but i used all default installation procedure
ok i go try change in config.php. 1 min please
$mosconfig_live_site = "http://localhost/zacero";
the default installation procedure takes the name of the server you configure it and uses it
this one i guess ?
since it doesn't know what the other values could be it figures if you can get to it from there it should work
yup thats the one
so what should i put there ?
http://nameofmypc/zacero ?
probably
ok
if thats how your accessing it, i'm not sure how name resolution works on your network
i run my own dns on my home lan
hmm
the client pc have static ip of 192.168.1.100 , server has wlan dhcp , now set to 192.168.1.3 , if that tells u somthign
ok, it booted now with http://nameofmypc/zacero
again, dunno how your network is setup so if it works it works
i use static ips and dns to run things
i c
i need to check over client pc, but i cant get to it till tomorow

hi
id like to have my news on frontpage or some page at all, but no matter what i do, joomla tells me that page doesnt exist
where's the problem ?
frontpagemanager tells me there's one page set as front page and it is published
but when i got to www.myserver.com/joomla where my site is, it says that "page you're trying to access, doesnt exist"
Hello there
i want to add an extra field for customers in virtualmart in the howto it ist possible but there is no button like in the howto are there different versions of the administration interface ?
sorry, never used virtualmart
is there any way to comment events in jevent?
or in extcalendar?
check if your index.php files are uploaded correctly, and see what is set as frontpage
@doitux, as it is not normal content, but data generated by a component, you would need a commenting plugin for the component itself
if these are not present, it will not be possible unless you can create one yourself of coures
course
DT^2: do you know an commenting plugin for jevents?
http://www.pjirc.com/
no I don't, try searching for it
I have not yet seen it
mosPJIRC exists, but doesn't seem to work
DT^2: it works
DT^2: http://www.pokerth.net/component/option,com_mospjirc/Itemid,61/
ok cool
then again, I don't think we should seek such a solution for Joomla! as the forum is at the same time also a reference that can be searched
haha yes indeed it works
