[Mod] Simple Blog

[jklapp]

I think this could be one of the top 10 best SMF Hacks

I have been watching this mod develop for some time and I am really impressed...

I like the features you have included...

I really like that it shows how many entries you have made in your blog under the avatar ....a key in letting people know your blogs are there

You are doing a fantastic job on this mod, keep up the great work...

I have a question about the profile layout... the tab feature...if I am not mistaken this is a script....are you intergrating it at all... if not...( sorry I am drawing a blank.)where can that be found...?
thanx in advance..

The tabs script will be released as a mod soon. It will show you how to add your own tabs and include some of it's own.

I'm looking for the specific code in the correct template file that shows the catbg in the comments area when a user views the profile blog. Currently it's a gradient table cell background with the avatar on top and it looks really bad. I'd like to remove the catbg code and alter it for the comments area of this mod, only.

[Little15]

The code you are looking for is in SimpleBlogView.php in the theme directory.

You need to change

Code: [Select]

                          loadMemberData($memCommID);
$uploaded = empty($user_profile[$memCommID]['ID_ATTACH']) ? '' : (empty($user_profile[$memCommID]['attachmentType']) ? $scripturl . '?action=dlattach;attach=' . $user_profile[$memCommID]['ID_ATTACH'] . ';type=avatar' : $modSettings['custom_avatar_url'] . '/' . $user_profile[$memCommID]['filename']);

                          echo'<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" class="bordercolor" width="100%"><tr><td width="20%" class="catbg" align="center" valign="top" style="padding:10px 5px 5px 5px;">';

I was running Simple Blog 1.2... I seen you had Simple Blog 1.3 available, so I uninstalled Blog 1.2 and tried to install Blog 1.3.

I got this error...

Duplicate entry 'enable_recent_blogs' for key 1
File: D:\Inetpub\akronsanctuary\portal\Packages\temp\SimpleBloginstall.php

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum files are currently at version SMF 1.0.8, whereas your database is at version SMF 1.0.7. It is recommended that you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.

I ran the newest update and tried again, and I'm getting the same error. (except the note about the database)

I took over this mod from Little15 who is currently busy. I will improve after I finish the gallery project.

I downloaded this mod and I think it is fantastik but I donīt see the permissions to the blog in the backend...

I just get this:
Simple Blog
   Enable recent blogs    
   Number of recent blogs    
   Number of days to show    
   Number of blogs per page

[grodden]

Sorry I couldnt modify the previous message.
So my problem is that I announced to my users that they can blog, but they cannot, because they donīt see the lAdd new blog entry link under their profile 
Please help me fix this ?

[jklapp]

please help me fix this ?

This mod really messed-up my forum, so be careful using it... make sure you make a back-up.

SMFHacks said he was taking the mod over, so you may want to wait.

Please help me fix this ?

Since you used that magical "Please" word, I played around with it and got it working.

What you need to do is go to "Edit Permissions" and give Permissions to the Membergroups you want to use Simple Blog

[grodden]

Thank you soooo much!
 
Now i just wait to fix the "recent Blogs" Because they are repeating the same blog 3 times

I took over this mod from Little15 who is currently busy. I will improve after I finish the gallery project.

Looking forward to both.

I got the same thing at first... Did you get this error message when you installed Simple Blog?
