  • hey :) the Nugget thing gives this, as a result:

    Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /Library/WebServer/WebSites/the_site/public_html/forum/extensions/Blog/library/Function.Blog.php on line 64

    :)
  • ups.
    uploading new version of blog extension
    try it
  • seems to be working. but it's late here. will try everything tomorrow
  • Formatting comments in BBCode or Textile still doesn't work for me. I didn't try Markdown, but I guess it would be the same. It's ok in the discussions tab though, but when I go to the blog view only the posts formatted in HTML show up correctly. Dunno, maybe there's a conflict with another extension or something?

    there's clearly a formatting issue. as far as i can see, it goes like this:

    line-breaks are NOT formatted under the blog tag (either in the permalink window or in the main blog list), BUT ARE formatted correctly in the discussions view

    the 'more' tag IS formatted correctly under the blog tag, BUT is seen in the discussions view

    (and panel-links to the latest posts are still leading to the discussions threads rather than permalink views, but i don't know whether you intended to change that)
  • Yep, there's also a line break problem. The BBCode-formatted discussions in the category I assigned to the blog show no line break at all (and no BBCode formatting at all in fact)

    pagination doesn't seem to work with me

    and there seems to be a strange bug with the permalink link. once you click, the blog entry displays correctly, but the title of it is always that of the very last entry

    :)
  • do u guys have a live link for me to check
  • ok found the problem
  • good :)

    OK line breaks should work now
    Permalink bug is fixed. i was doing it all wrong actually. Now i did it correctly
    "More link" will not forward to the permalink page. thats how i want it.

    already mentioned about more tag. its for Htmlformatter or any other formatter ur using to hide it. its a comment it shouldn't appear at all. FCkeditor and tinymce hide it as it should be.

    reason its not shown in the blog tab is that I look for it and save whatever is before it and display that. So for blog tab the more comment isn't even there to begin with.

    why don't u guys bug SirNot or Mark to fix this.
  • they don't read thread here. U will have to send a whisper discussion or email em.

    seems to be working fine except for this "more" tag and pagination (that one is still not working with me) :)
  • won't you consider moving the stuff left of the entry (time, add comments, permalink, etc) into the panel? to make it even better, that is :)
  • edited April 2007
    why should that be in the panel
    Information about a post shouldn't be in a sidebar. unexpected behaviour. People don't expect it to be in the sidebar

    try now for pagination to work
  • edited April 2007
    yep, pagination works fine now. thanks.

    i agree re 'unexpected behaviour'. but this way it just doesnt look quite right. because of the overall text-alignment. the caption above ("all blog posts" and the rest) is aligned left. so is the blog entry (which now does not have the same left-margin as the caption). but then there is this info thingy, aligned right, with its own margins which do not really fit with any others... plus the font-size of the time line is bigger than that of the entry's title (or so it looks on safari)... all these things, you know, all of which could be fixed in one blow. that was my line of thinking

    here, see how it looks like in (slightly tweaked, to accommodate Janine) hemingway-theme in WP. rather similar to what it would have been like with the panel

    and btw, to further maintain consistency with the overall vanilla layout you'll need a 'back to all blog posts' link at the lower left corner of the permalink window, just where 'back to discussions' one sits in the normal (non-blog) view

    :)

    MSB, i tweaked your Blog css (and also the permalink .php) a bit, just to show you what I meant by the layout thing. it's not ideal, but conveys the jist of it, i hope :)

    (note, that it's also integrated with wordpress through Janine and this is how the "more" tag is inserted.
    speaking about this tag, i really think that with the permalink option in place, one doesn't need the whole of the entry content in the discussion view. it would be even better if in that view only the bit befor the split is displayed. and this way there would not be the 'more' tag problem. and the permalinf page would be qualitatively different from all the rest)

    u can change the css to whatever u want to.
    take a look at the theme files, its pretty striaght forward. u can move things around
    I used the same style for permalink as the blog cause i don't have to create a new css just for it

    So the author, date thingy should be left aligned to match the "All blog posts"

    this is why i made the mockups in start so u guys can agree on what it looks like. I don't want to change the layout again.
  • Line breaks now work fine for me, but BBCode & Textile still don't want to show up (yep I know, I'm annoying :P)
