iCGStation for 140

[tmotley]

Helter Skelter posted this great theme recently on previous integramod site.

I'm having some technical issues. Here's my laundry list. Any help would be appreciated.

Ongoing Issues:

1. There are white squares in Firefox and gray squares in IE around the red, yellow, and blue card buttons. How can I eliminate those? There are *.gif versions included. How can I use them?

2. In Firefox, center portal blocks are fine. In IE, the content is slightly chopped off. I have cleared cache and it isn't fixed.

3. Mini-Calendar gave errors but I just removed it. I think I remember someone talking about a fix by copying fisubice's mini-calendar block? I copied mini-calender 2 body tpl but it was too wide and the #4 issue was still there...

4. In IE, regular Calendar is showing red X's on the right and left arrows. I can't tell what image is missing... In Firefox, images are missing but you don't notice because I don't see red X's. Viewing source I see that the image is not being defined. It says the url of the image is the page url.

5. Staff page is missing content in both Firefox and IE. I replaced the staff.php with fisubice's and appears to have fixed it.

6. When you haven't voted on a poll yet, the page is messed up. Once you vote, it appears normal.

7. In Memberlist, there is the same issue as my #4 only with the sorting down arrow. It does show on my Username column but not any others.

8. I'm missing the Quick Reply feature.I replaced viewtopic_body with one from fisubice. Got QR back. Is there a problem with just replacing it? EDIT - switched back because fisubice viewtopic_body messed up poll display page. How to get QR?

Red text are my attempted fixes or added issues.

Additional Issues and Site Link

9. Shoutbox bottom looks different than other bottom of blocks.

Helter will post later, the problems should be fixed soon.

H, I am available to support <img> Just need a copy of 1.4.1 and the theme. (I have it for 1.3.2 I think)

More information on #4 Issue:

It's messing up the mini-calendar block that appears on the index page, not the main calendar.

On the KisMod demo 140 site, here's the code from source for the back-one-month button:

Code: Select all

<a><img></a>

Here's the same code from my site's source]<a><img>[/code]

There's the exact same discrepancy for the forward a month button.

As you can see, my site is not assigning the image url for the button, whereas the demo site is. What file is responsible for assigning that url? I'm struggling here.

I'd venture a guess that the problem is similar for my memberlist sort image issue. I've about worn myself ragged. That's what happens when you're as clueless as I am.

[tmotley]

More info on #9 Issue:

The bottom of the ShoutBox is fine on the portal page but is slightly messed up on the index page.

Comparing Demo Site to My Site

Issue #1 : Can't tell because can't log in on Demo Site.
Issue #2 : Appears that the same issue is affecting Demo Site too.
Issue #3 : Can't tell since Demo Site doesn't have it showing.
Issue #4 : Demo Site works, mine doesn't.
Issue #5 : Demo Site is messed up like mine was prior to copying staff file from fisubice.
Issue #6 : Can't tell since can't create poll on Demo Site.
Issue #7 : Can't tell since I can't log in on Demo Site.
Issue #8 : Can't tell since I can't log in to use QR on Demo Site.
Issue #9 : Can't tell since ShoutBox isn't viewable on Demo Site.

In regards to Issue 8....Dont think it would have been the best idea to replce the viewtopic_body, as each one would be differnet for each theme....

And because of the way iCGstation is designed, it is surely different from iCGstation.....

Ongoing Issues:

1. There are white squares in Firefox and gray squares in IE around the red, yellow, and blue card buttons. How can I eliminate those? There are *.gif versions included. How can I use them?

I dont know how to fix this. They are not in the images. The squares are boarders, but I have defined all borders to be off inless assigned other wise. The reason they are .png's is that I had the problem with the gifs and was trying to fix it (didnt work...lol)

2. In Firefox, center portal blocks are fine. In IE, the content is slightly chopped off. I have cleared cache and it isn't fixed.

IE and FF read table info diferently. IE is very picky about % widths in <TD> tags. Ill look into it and get back to you on this

3. Mini-Calendar gave errors but I just removed it. I think I remember someone talking about a fix by copying fisubice's mini-calendar block? I copied mini-calender 2 body tpl but it was too wide and the #4 issue was still there...

I have been struggling with this one since I firs ported it. It is fine in FF. I think this is another issuer where IE is not recognizing a table width somewhere

4. In IE, regular Calendar is showing red X's on the right and left arrows. I can't tell what image is missing... In Firefox, images are missing but you don't notice because I don't see red X's. Viewing source I see that the image is not being defined. It says the url of the image is the page url.

open iCGstation.cfg
Find

Code: Select all

 $images['mini_cal_icon_left_arrow'] = "";$images['mini_cal_icon_right_arrow'] = "";  

Replace with

Code: Select all

 $images['mini_cal_icon_left_arrow'] = "$current_template_images/icon_left.png";$images['mini_cal_icon_right_arrow'] = "$current_template_images/icon_right.png";  

5. Staff page is missing content in both Firefox and IE. I replaced the staff.php with fisubice's and appears to have fixed it.

this is the correct fix. To add the correct images to it. open it up and find

Code: Select all

<table>     <tr>         <td>{L_STAFF_TITLE}</td>     </tr>   <tr>     <td><a>{L_INDEX}</a>{NAV_SEPARATOR}{L_STAFF_TITLE}</td>   </tr>     </table>  

and replace with

Code: Select all

 <table><tr><td><img></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td><span><a>{L_INDEX}</a></span></td><td><img></td></tr></table><br><table><tr><td><img></td><td><span></span></td><td><img></td></tr></table>

6. When you haven't voted on a poll yet, the page is messed up. Once you vote, it appears normal.

not sure yet

7. In Memberlist, there is the same issue as my #4 only with the sorting down arrow. It does show on my Username column but not any others.

8. I'm missing the Quick Reply feature.I replaced viewtopic_body with one from fisubice. Got QR back. Is there a problem with just replacing it? EDIT - switched back because fisubice viewtopic_body messed up poll display page. How to get QR?

Red text are my attempted fixes or added issues.

Im sorry I have gotten behind on this, but between work and setting up this site, I hardly have time to sleep <img>

[tmotley]

I'm patient since it's very functional and extremely nice looking.

Mini-calendar fix worked perfectly. Staff_body.tpl fix worked perfectly. THANK YOU!

I would sure like that Quick Reply to work though... <img>

BTW, on the demo site, it might be nice to allow membership but with no real privileges so people could see what different parts look like... for example, memberlist, quick reply, posting window, polls, etc. I was trying to see if the demo was more functional than my site but couldn't tell since my account was activated.

I'd just like to say that I'm very pleased with Integramod and you folks do a wonderful job. Thanks for all your hard work. Since discovering IM in February, I've learned a lot and have a nice little website with minimal hassle. THANK YOU! Get some sleep... you've earned it!

[tmotley]

I fixed my Problem #7.

Here's how:

Open iCGStation.cfg

Find:

Code: Select all

$images['up_arrow']             = "$current_template_images/icon_up_arrow.gif";$images['down_arrow']           = "$current_template_images/icon_down_arrow.gif";

Add after]$images['next_arrow']             = "$current_template_images/next.gif";[/code]

That did the trick!

Anybody have a Quick Reply fix for iCGStation?

trm

[tmotley]

Updated iCGStation Issues:

1. Borders on red, yellow, blue cards still irksome. I can live with it though.

2. Content on center blocks slightly chopped off on right side using IE but is fine in Firefox. I'm using Firefox so I don't really care but a majority of my students/members use IE.

3. Don't use calendar block on portal now so I don't care about this now.

6. Topic page is still messed up on polls that haven't been voted on. The top post is put at the bottom of a widened left column while the poll question and voting options appear in the right column. Interestingly, it appears correctly when NOT LOGGED IN but messes up when LOGGED IN. I'll post a screen shot if it would help.

8. Quick Reply feature is missing from iCGStation theme. I would REALLY like this solved but I really am at a loss where to start looking.

9. Shout box bottom is still messed up on index but NOT on portal page. Not a major issue but irksome.

ORDER OF URGENCY:

#8, #6, all others are either fixed or non-urgent... at least for tmotley! <img>

[tmotley]

Anybody want to give me some tips to find the Quick Reply issue in iCGStation? <img>

[vanquish]

I am experiencing issue #4 also, but in addition there is an always present "Happy Birthday!" notification in the calendar box with no username specified. Issue is not apparent on the forum calender box (on the forum index)

These are really the last two bugs in iCGstation for me - I have quick reply box working (I don't remember how i fixed it, i'll look it up for you tmotley)

for examples of both, my forums are http://students.collegiumv.com

[tmotley]

I would appreciate any QR help I can get! Thanks in advance. I checked out your site and noticed issues that I fixed with HelterSkelter's instructions:

Expand HelterSkelter's quote of me in his post on Tue Mar 28, 2006 8:36 pm

It tells how to get the previous and next month images to show on mini-calendar and also how to get the staff page to have the iCGStation graphics.

I don't know why it's saying the Happy Birthday! message but there seems to be a missing assignment of the happy_birthday.gif image. In IE, it shows a red x.

Do you have the poll issue I have? When a poll is posted, there's a funky page layout until you vote on it...

[vanquish]

Yes, i have that same poll issue.


The happy birthday picture isn't visible to people that haven't logged in, along with all the other pictures (set in config board, although i'm not sure why it applies to that picture also) so if you log in, it is visible.

[vanquish]

I addressed the title graphic on the staff page (thanks, i didn't even notice <img> )

Is there anything i missed? I couldn't find a post by helterskelter at that time, am i looking in the wrong place? I also check integramod.com

I'd like to fix the calendar arrows, could you post his post here?

[tmotley]

open iCGStation.cfg

Find:

Code: Select all

$images['mini_cal_icon_left_arrow'] = "";$images['mini_cal_icon_right_arrow'] = "";

Replace with]$images['mini_cal_icon_left_arrow'] = "$current_template_images/icon_left.png";$images['mini_cal_icon_right_arrow'] = "$current_template_images/icon_right.png"; [/code]

[vanquish]

Sorry it took me so long.

I'm pretty sure this is the procedure for quick reply:

Code: Select all

 #viewtopic.php#search for  $template->assign_vars(array( "TELL_LINK" => append_sid("http].$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF']."?t=$topic_id", true)));  #After ADD  if ( ( $userdata['session_logged_in'] ) && ( $userdata['user_id'] != ANONYMOUS ) && ( ( $forum_topic_data['topic_status'] != TOPIC_LOCKED ) ? TRUE : ( ( $userdata['user_level'] == ADMIN  ) ? TRUE : FALSE ) )   ){     include($phpbb_root_path . 'quick_reply.'.$phpEx);}

The above was actually included in the icgstation template readme.

After that you need the quick_reply.php in the root folder (also included in the icgstation package):

Code: Select all

 <php>set_filenames(array(         'quick_reply_output' => 'quick_reply.tpl'));$template->assign_vars(array(    'L_MORE_SMILIES' => $lang['More_emoticons'],                     'U_MORE_SMILIES' => append_sid("posting.$phpEx?mode=smilies"),                             'L_EMOTICONS' => $lang['Emoticons'],                             'L_CLOSE_WINDOW' => $lang['Close_window'],                             'S_SMILIES_COLSPAN' => $s_colspan));$template->assign_block_vars('smilies_row.smilies_col', array(                     'SMILEY_CODE' => $data['code'],                     'SMILEY_IMG' => $board_config['smilies_path'] . '/' . $smile_url,                     'SMILEY_DESC' => $data['emoticon'])                 );       //     // Taken from Quick reply with quote by Smartor - Begin     //             $bbcode_uid = $postrow[$total_posts - 1]['bbcode_uid'];     $last_poster = $postrow[$total_posts - 1]['username'];     $last_msg = $postrow[$total_posts - 1]['post_text'];     $last_msg = str_replace("]" . $last_msg . '[/quote]';     $attach_sig = (( $userdata['session_logged_in'] ) ? $userdata['user_attachsig'] : 0)?"checked='checked'":'';     $notify_user = (( $userdata['session_logged_in'] ) ? $userdata['user_notify'] : 0)?"checked='checked'":'';       $template->assign_block_vars('quick_reply', array(         'POST_ACTION' => append_sid("posting.$phpEx"),         'TOPIC_ID' => $topic_id,         'SID' => $userdata['session_id'],         'LAST_MESSAGE' => $last_msg)     );       if( $userdata['session_logged_in'] )     {         $template->assign_block_vars('quick_reply.user_logged_in', array(             'ATTACH_SIGNATURE' => $attach_sig,             'NOTIFY_ON_REPLY' => $notify_user)         );     }     else     {         $template->assign_block_vars('quick_reply.user_logged_out', array());     }     //     // Taken from Quick reply with quote by Smartor - End     //         //     // Show smiles or not     //     if ( ( $userdata['user_viewquickreply'] == 2 ) && ( $board_config['allow_smilies'] == 1 ) && ( $userdata['user_allowsmile'] == 1 ) )     {         $template->assign_block_vars('quick_reply.switch_show_smiles', array());         generate_smilies('inline', PAGE_POSTING, true);     }         if ( ( $board_config['allow_smilies'] == 1 ) && ( $userdata['user_allowsmile'] == 1 ) )     {         $template->assign_block_vars('quick_reply.switch_show_all_smiles', array(             'U_MORE_SMILIES' => append_sid("posting.$phpEx?mode=smilies"),             'L_ALL_SMILIES' => $lang['Quick_Reply_smilies'])         );     }       //     // Show a line with BBCode buttons or not     //     if ( ( $board_config['allow_bbcode'] == 1 ) && ( $userdata['user_allowbbcode'] == 1 ) )     {         $template->assign_block_vars('quick_reply.switch_show_bbcode', array());     }     $template->assign_vars(array(         'L_BBCODE_CLOSE_TAGS' => $lang['Close_Tags'],         'L_USERNAME' => $lang['Username'],         'L_NOTIFY_ON_REPLY' => $lang['Notify'],         'L_ATTACH_SIGNATURE' => $lang['Attach_signature'],         'L_EMPTY_MESSAGE' => $lang['Empty_message'],         'L_QUOTE_LAST_MESSAGE' => $lang['Quick_quote'],         'L_QUICK_REPLY' => $lang['Quick_Reply'],         'L_PREVIEW' => $lang['Preview'],         'L_SUBMIT' => $lang['Submit'])     );  $template->assign_var_from_handle('QUICKREPLY_OUTPUT', 'quick_reply_output');  ?>  

which again goes in your forum root folder.

Finally, you need the quickreply.tpl in the /templates/iCGstation/ folder (your icgstation template root folder) which also should have been included in your icgstation package.

Anybody want to give me some tips to find the Quick Reply issue in iCGStation? <img>

Check out the download section in the old site and download the ICGstation from there, that one has a quick reply fix.

[tmotley]

Sweet action... I got it working despite having a few too many MGD's... (Miller Genuine Draft)

Thank you vanquish and bluecubbies4me!

[tmotley]

Issues Remaining:

A. Poll page messed up until you vote.
B. Center Portal blocks have content cutoff on right side.
C. Bottom of my forum shoutbox isn't normal looking.
D. My portal mini-cal give errors if I try to use it.

B. Center Portal blocks have content cutoff on right side.
C. Bottom of my forum shoutbox isn't normal looking.
D. My portal mini-cal give errors if I try to use it.

A. Don't know how to fix it either
B. Does this happen with a particular browser?
C. I don't quite get this, can you provide a screenshot?
D. Is this the one that you replace with the one from fisbice? Or the one that came with ICGstation?

[tmotley]

A. Then you feel my pain? <img>
B. Just in IE. Here's a screenshot.
[flash=,:1eomlgfn]http://motleyville.com/icfixes/IE_centerblock.jpg[/flash:1eomlgfn]
C. Sure, here's another screenshot.
[flash=,:1eomlgfn]http://motleyville.com/icfixes/shout_bottom.jpg[/flash:1eomlgfn]
D. I used the one from fisubice but it seemed too large. Maybe I could try again...

[tmotley]

D. Using fisubice's minicalbody2.tpl seems to look okay now.

[Helter]

I dont remember which file I edited to fix it. Be sure to save your index.tpl, before overwriting it

[tmotley]

Hey, that worked out pretty well. Thanks! Now I'm down to two issues.

A. Poll page messed up until you vote.
B. IE cuts off right side of center portal blocks.

[bluecubbies4me]

Yeah that poll page is really annoying, let's hope someone can find a fix for it.

[Helter]

got a screenie?

[tmotley]

Before you vote in a poll, here's what the poll looks like:

[flash=,:1plasjpu]http://motleyville.com/icfixes/prepoll1.jpg[/flash:1plasjpu]

Scrolling down, you see that the center block is being attached to the bottom of the left column:

[flash=,:1plasjpu]http://motleyville.com/icfixes/prepoll2.jpg[/flash:1plasjpu]

After voting on the poll, the regular page shows:

[flash=,:1plasjpu]http://motleyville.com/icfixes/postpoll.jpg[/flash:1plasjpu]

Any help would be appreciated!

[Michaelo]

Just a note re Minical problem... We are looking into it (and it's very dark <img>)...
Mike

[vanquish]

I also replaced the mini_cal2_body.tpl file with the one from fisubice, and it got rid of the everpresent Birthday notification, but it would be nice to have that feature working. any ideas guys?

blocks in IE still are still missing a right border too. Kind of annoying but i suppose not entirely major.

Just a note re Minical problem... We are looking into it (and it's very dark <img>)...
Mike

..what does that mean?

[dan0042]

just instill this iCGStation for 140
Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/assaulto/public_html/St/includes/template.php(938) : eval()'d code on line 312

[dan0042]

bup

[Helter]

I dont think that error has anything to do with iCGstation

[dan0042]

whats do with mate ?

[Helter]

check to be sure all your forum root/includes chmods are correct.
especially the def_ files. they should be 666, or if windows then writable. If they are, try another template. If the prob is only with iCGstation, ill try to find out why

[Gummi]

I fixed the #6 problem (the one where the page isn't displaying right when there's a poll) the following way. I know, it might be wrong but it worked for me.

1. Change the following template files of icgstation with the ones from fisubice (I think any of them should work, but I did this one with the files from fisubice): viewtopic_body.tpl ; viewtopic_poll_ballot.tpl ; viewtopic_poll_result.tpl
2. Find and remove the following from viewtopic_body.tpl. This is to make sure that the horizontal scroll bar wont appear.

Code: Select all

 <was>no_thread_stretch({BLOCK_WIDTH}+233);

3. You're done
