One thing I noticed though; the WilshireOne website is running Txp4.0.4 (http://www.wilshireone.com/article/198/now-running-txp-404) according to a blog post on there. I then checked out the archives and rss_live_archive (http://www.wilshireone.com/livearchive ) is installed and still working. So he has either patched it himself (if so why not release it?) or rolled back to Txp4.0.3.
You are correct that I am running 4.0.4 and my live archive does still work. But no, I have not secretly fixed the plugin and not released it. Maybe it has to do with the fact that my archive has always worked and I didn’t do a clean install, but just upgraded from 4.0.3.
I will have to take a look at your fixes Simon and update the download on wilshire|one as well. Thanks for that. I also have never been able to track down the “disappearing years” problem but maybe you’ll have some luck.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_live_archive
I’m not able to get this plugin to work properly in IE7. When I view my archives (here) or those posted earlier by Finner (here) in IE7, the years and months do nothing when clicked. Everything is fine in Firefox 2.0. Is anybody else seeing this problem? Any ideas for a solution?
Edit: I finally gave up on this plugin since it does not seem to behave properly when using IE7.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_live_archive
Just to let you all know: apparently the new year triggered a bug in the live archive code which occurs when for the current year there is no article in the archive. There are two methods to fix this:
1. write a new article
or
2. fix the code. If you replace in the plugin code the block for reading the month with the following code, it will work again:
// Read months
$months = rssGetMonths($cyear);
if ($recache || $months === false) {
rss_cacheAll($section, $category);
$months = rssGetMonths($cyear);
if( $months === false )
{
// try to fix year
$year_keys = array_keys($years);
$cyear = $year_keys0;
$months = rssGetMonths($cyear);
if( $months === false ) die(rssCacheError(“month”));
}
}
This has to replace the current block starting with the comment “//Read months”.
I tried to format it nicer, but neither bc. nor notextile. nor <pre> or <code> worked despite the FAQ Answer #43

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_live_archive
Thanks Flashpix! I’ve updated the download to rss_live_archive 0.6 which includes the change above.
There are still likely problems in IE7 because I haven’t gotten around to installing it yet.

Hi there, Wilshire
I uploaded the new version, and am having the same problem that treffynnon had solved earlier. Did you perhaps neglect to include his fix in the new version? Thank you for your work so far, this plugin is just what I need!

Thanks for pointing that out and thanks to treffynnon for making the changes. I’ve incorporated them into the 0.6 download so give it a try again.

Thanks. I had reverted to the one released by treffynnon and edited the plugin. This worked well. I reinstalled your newest and it works perfectly too.
Wow. Talk about great tech support on the first day of the new year!!! ;-)
Thank you for this great plugin – to you and all the other contributors.

Ok, glad that worked.
Can anyone confirm if this new version fixes the “missing years” issue?

It seems to be OK for me. I am in the process of building a new site for our family blog, Three Loose Nuts. The new version, where rss_live_archive is running is at this temporary site. Excuse the mess, and watch out for falling debris!!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_live_archive
Hi, I have succesfully tested this new version 0.6 (TXP 4.0.4 just upgraded)
Years have no more disappeared and it works fine. Only have the “IE7” issue… but in my statistics no one use it so far.

About 10% in my stats, so they are there. I think what I’ll need to do is use IE conditional comments and exclude IE7. Gaaaack!
As you say, works very well, otherwise.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_live_archive
Latest IE7 statistics are here
“More than 100 million people have installed Internet Explorer 7, making it the second most used browser in the U.S., trailing only its predecessor—IE 6, the software maker said Friday.”

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_live_archive
Since I am not 1 of the 100 million suckers that installed IE7, can someone try downloading the latest version (0.7) of the plugin and let me know if it works?
Based on some info I found I needed to change the onload event handling for IE7.
