What about the freshly realeased txp 4.5, did someone ran into MLP update or compatability issues?

I tried to run MLP with the 4.5 beta and it broke the admin royally, so it will need update.

I’m planning to update an MLP site tonight. Will post my findings.

For those willing to do some testing, you could try any of this:

The first one is TXP 4.5.0 with latest official MLP release (4.3.0.12).
The second one is TXP 4.5.0 with some extra commits I took from netcarver/mlp_pack repository at GitHub.

In both versions, the necessary hack (to txplib_db.php) is already applied. You should only have to install the plugins that are inside the .tar.gz file in folder /mlp_pack/.

Also, feel free to clone my repo (or fork your own repo from it) which already has a 4.5.0-mlp branch. Maybe we altogether could help to put the MLP to work properly with TXP 4.5.0.

Great! Thanks, Julián. But I keep getting this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function safe_escape() in /path/to/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php on line 33

with the original MLP and with your mlp-4.3.0-12-gb7b6bc0. I’ll have another go at it tomorrow, it’s getting late over here…

hey i m new here … first at all thx for the plugin an the effort developing it …

2nd i set up a 4.5.0 with versioning and mlp wich leads mit to following alert box:
Internal error “Array to string conversion”.
the error is caused by _initiate_callbacks in l10n_admin_classes and could be removed by imploding the return value of the function … is that a proper solution, or do i miss smthg?

@els had the same problem at the beginning … use this file … don’t know where i got it from …
http://pastie.org/4656059
i hope this helps

… whatever i said … wrong …
its a problem of the xampp version … if you run 1.7.3 everything is fine on 1.8.0 i get the errors …
sql-version i suppose?!

hi,

just come across a strange issue, when I add a new article and then clone it, all 3 renditions have the same language. Tried to change it manually but whichever rendition I change, all 3 ID’s have the same language assigned. Obviously this causes problems. Any suggestions short of running the wizard?

Textpattern version: 4.4.1 (r3575)
PHP version: 5.3.10
MySQL: 5.1.61-cll

Active plugins: rah_metas-1.0.5, zem_contact_reborn-4.0.3.20, zem_contact_lang-mlp-4.0.3.6-ML, rvm_if_this_article-0.1, cab_social-0.2, smd_gallery-0.62, rss_auto_excerpt-0.5m, smd_query-0.50, rah_replace-0.3, rss_admin_db_manager-4.3, hpw_admincss-0.1, ebl-image-edit-1.0, l10n-4.3.0.12, hak_tinymce-0.9.9, gbp_admin_library-0.4.1, smd_lib-0.36
Admin-side theme: classic 4.4.1

Same problem with l10n-0.9.13-gp

Any help/suggestions most welcome.

Regards

Hi,
Some friend of mine asked why i wasn’t writing my posts in Italian (which happens to be my native language) so i came by MLP and was thinking about installing it on my site: after some readings i’m now assessing the risks it may involve.

This texpattern installation begun with version 4.4.0 and was upgraded till 4.5.1 (current stable release); i’ve never installed any template so my site is stick to that belonging to 4.4.0 and i’m just fine with it.

Question is: what is the preferable/advisable way to go through installig MLP on a “production” site? Do i need to test it elsewhere first? Is it reliable enough to do the big jump without second thoughts and, most of all, will i be eventually able to uninstall it without compromising my site?

Thanks for reading and sorry for my uncertainties about MLP but i am not really a guru speaking about textpattern and i’m not in search for possible troubles to solve.

johnstephens · 2012-09-25 18:53:51

@roughnecks: I like MLP, and I have in running smoothly on a site alongside Textpattern 4.4.1. I will not be upgrading it until I hear confirmation that MLP works with 4.5.x.

roughnecks · 2012-09-25 19:01:03

Hi John,
Thanks for the feedback: i’ll keep following this thread for such confirmation too, then.
Hope to hear good news soon.

First: if your site is on anything higher than 4.4.1, don’t install MLP now. It’s not ready yet for Textpattern 4.5.
In Txp 4.4.1 it’s very reliable, at least for me it is. As you may have noticed in this thread some users are having problems.
As soon as MLP is ready for Txp 4.5, it will be announced in this thread. When it is, don’t hesitate to install it, if you find it doesn’t fit your needs after all, it can be uninstalled without any damage to your site.

roughnecks · 2012-09-25 19:03:57

Thanks Els, that makes perfect sense to me now.

els · 2012-09-25 19:07:29

@Exiladler

Sorry, I seem to have overlooked your post. I hope you found the solution, but if you didn’t: is it a new installation where this happens, or an existing one? If the latter, did the problem occur after an upgrade?

Exiladler · 2012-09-25 19:39:08

no, left it, as I had other more pressing projects.

No update (known to me) but possible php upgrade by hoster

Site has been up for a year at least but I did not add any new articles, now when I tried, I get to this problem. So any suggestions of possible solutions I could try? Let me know if you need more config data.

els · 2012-09-25 20:25:07

More config data to be honest wouldn’t tell me much :( I don’t know, don’t think I’ve seen this happen before. What I would probably do if I were you is change the language of the articles in question manually in the database, but of course that wouldn’t be a long term solution. Running the cleanup wizard (don’t check the checkboxes) and then the install wizard again can’t hurt, but I doubt if it will help.

Or else just hope for MLP’s adaption to 4.5 to arrive soon…

datorhaexa · 2012-09-26 08:30:26

Strange things have happened to my installs when I’d use a db table prefix. This might not be the case here, but might be worth mentioning.
