danbanG,

- problem nr. 1: there are no page links because there is still only one page. When you add more comments, or set pagelimit to 1 or 2, you should see the page links.<br /><br />
- problem nr. 2: “Kommentar” is probably coming from a <code><txp:comments_invite /></code> tag in your form. Just remove that, or create a new form without the tag.

TextDude,

The tag should not go in the article body, but in your page template for section “guestbook”. The article body can remain empty, or contain an intro text for your guestbook.

Thanks doggiez.

Still having a few problems.

I created a new template, copied the article template and included the tags.
The entry form shows up and I can preview the message, though the date
formatting does look odd. Next, when I want to submit the entry, nothing
gets added to the guestbook. I am using a language pack (German).

Can you help again?

Thanks a lot!

I submitted a test message to your guestbook, please remove it when and if you find it :)

Somewhere in site preferences you can set ‘moderate comments’ to yes or no. Look if it’s ‘yes’, that means that you will have to approve first before it goes live. Setting it to ‘no’ will show new entries immediately.
The comments should be in Content > comments.

To solve the date formatting look at this post.

doggiez – Works now! Thank you very much!

I just upgraded to 4.0 (but the problem could have existed for longer, I’m not sure), and found out that the plugin didn’t correctly process the ‘never_display_email’ setting anymore. Changing this line:

if ($email && !$web && !$txpac[‘never_display_email’])

into

if ($email && !$web && !$never_display_email)

solved that.

Nice catch Els. :) I hadn’t spotted it myself so I have no idea when it happened either.

thank you! :)

Could anyboy contribute with an updated version of this great plugin, with all the fixes.

Then I don’t really get how you get rid of the dotlist < ul >, I’m not good at reading php-code

Then about the navigation I would like to have it in the bottom of the page, before the input form and as follows:

1 x x x x x x x | Previous | Next

If anyone wants it, take my modified plugin code ~~here~~ (EDIT: gone). It’s just the code, so you have to copy and paste it (or the part that you want) into the edit plugins area. The paging code is in between // comments paging... and // end comments paging. I replaced the ul for the paging with spaces.
The code outputs valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional.

My guestbook page is ~~here~~ (EDIT: not using this plugin anymore). You can style the comments output through the comments form and in your CSS (#commentsul).

Hi all,

terribly sorry for not updating my plugin. Thanks to doggiez for relentless bugfixing!
I’ve read through this thread and managed to work out most of the bugs.
The new plugin (v4.0) can be downloaded at sdr_guestbook.txt . I’ll create a new thread with changes. This plugin now validates, the pagestring doesn’t appear with there’s only 1 page. I’ve changed the markup to mimick the markup for Listamatic . An example can be found at guestbook.textdriven.com .

The tage used is
<code>
<txp:sdr_guestbook section=“guestbook” pagelimit=“2” articletitle=“Guestbook” pageul=“navlist” commentsid=“commentsid” divid=“navcontainer” pagestring_placement=“both” />
</code>

The pagestring can be placed above, below and both.

More info tonight (I hope).

Oh gelukkig! Glad you’re back Sander :)

Do you think my not so expert hacking might cause me trouble when I install the updated version?

zebreus · 2005-09-19 18:10:00

Everything works fine with your hacked version doggiez, my last problem is that I have to change the path in the navigation.

It is
http://seafarer.mine.nu/gastbok/?page=2

should be

http://seafarer.mine.nu/ola/textpattern/gastbok/?page=2

els · 2005-09-19 18:21:36

I’m so relieved I can leave this question for the plugin owner ;) Actually I don’t know a thing about coding, and – contrary to what sderuiter said – the bugfixes came mostly from others in this thread…
