Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] sdr_guestbook v4.0 (as in comp. with 4.0.1)

Hi ZeeRax,

Did you follow the instructions on the page you mentioned? For this plugin mod you also need the comment_pack plugin, both can be downloaded from that page. If you create a form ‘guestbook_comment’ (type: comment) with the code Steve provided on his page, you need the attribute commentform="guestbook_comment" in the <txp:sdr_guestbook /> tag. The plugin help text will tell you how to set up the guestbook.
If it still doesn’t work, please post the code you’re using.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] sdr_guestbook v4.0 (as in comp. with 4.0.1)

Thanks for fast support Els, ofc I did (followed guide step by step), but I had problems with comment form and section – coz i used different names instead of guestbook, so I dont know what all i should change.
Well Ill try it once more now, hope it will work (i didnt add the attribute which you mentioned).

EDIT: Well… it still doesnt work :( -> my GB http://wishlist.own.cz/forum

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] sdr_guestbook v4.0 (as in comp. with 4.0.1)

OK let’s give it a try ;)

So your section for the guestbook is ‘forum’. You should create an article in that section that contains the text you want to appear above the guestbook comments. Let’s name it ‘Forum article’. Then you need an article form to display this article: ‘forum-article-form’. And a comments form, to display the comments (start with the code Steve provided on his page, you can adapt it later when everything is working), ‘forum-comments-form’.
Then put this tag on your page:

<txp:sdr_guestbook section="forum" articletitle="Forum article" form="forum-article-form" commentform="forum-comments-form" />

(If you’re using the same page template for section ‘forum’ as for the other sections, wrap this tag in <txp:if_section name="forum">...</txp:if_section>.)

There are other attributes, like pagelimit (default: 10) and some for styling, you can find them in the plugin help.

And of course: don’t forget to activate the plugin ;)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] sdr_guestbook v4.0 (as in comp. with 4.0.1)

Oh thank you for very nice guide. I think my problem was, that i didnt realise, that there is also form for article. Im not sure if its anywhere mentonied (mb it is :) ).
GB is workin now, but I think there is still long way till GB will be completed. For example desceding listing, avatars etc.
You saved me a huge amount of time :) Coz this plugin drives me crazy :D Not, rly your idea of GB was great. And I applaud you.

I think it would be very useful and appreciated, if there was some example with all seettings on. Not just guide.

Thanks once more ZeeRaX :)

Hey, this guestbook wasn’t my idea, I’m just a user ;)

The listing is descending, did you mean the numbering? It should also be descending. I think that #0 entry has to do with the fact that there is no name.

Anyone else getting comment spam in their guest book, is it stoppable?

Cheers, Lee.

I’ve had the guestbook for over two years now, without any comment spam.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] sdr_guestbook v4.0 (as in comp. with 4.0.1)

Hi, I am trying to run my web with guest book, but I need to have the comment form on the top – above other messages. Is it possible to style it in such way? I cannot make it out.

Thanks
Jan

Do you still have it? Which version? I had it under TxP 4.0.3, but when I updated to 4.0.4, I never get spam anymore.

Pretty weird, I haven’t had any spam with 4.0.4 for a long time, and since my last post above I got a lot of spam every day. Sander, are you still here on the forum? Could you help us out? Thanks :)

Joey
