http://www.zoullou.net

Looks like the new version of extgallery is out, version 1.0.5. Not sure if it has been posted.

- Add Slideshow for album pages
=> Mootools 1.2 must be available on woll site

- Add a feature to make a module update just by clicking on module admin side. The server will download, install files and update the module.

I suspect admin/moduleUpdateFunction.php will stop this module working on ImpressCMS, cube or 2.0.18.x

On the website stand: It works O N L Y with XPS 2.3! I try it under ImpressCMS ... forget it! There´s so much diffeent errors ...

What a pity! ExtGallery is one of the best gallery modules ...

Don't worry, we can try to make it work.
Just give it some time.

So far it works fairly well for me. I have not been able to get the slideshow working but other than that it appears OK.

Can you post specific errors Andy so we can sort this out? I think this module is a must fo Impress!

Duplicate post

Edited by me

I may have a look at this myself - to see what is causing the problems.

What was the last stable release to work under ImpressCMS 1.1?

1.0.4 and 1.0.5 seem to work the same on my site other than the Slideshow. I have not observed any problems.

I am ImpressCMS 1.1 Final

Apache version 1.3.41 (Unix)
PHP version 5.2.6
MySQL version 4.1.22-standard-log

I did take it away for the moment, but i remember the error on (Attention) 1.1.1 Final. I did not check it on 1.1 Final!!!

The errors:
1. You can create a category, but not a subcategory
2. If you want set the rights for the user groups and you click on the plus + icon, the whole part is gone and never seen!

If needed i can install it again, let me know!

Greetings Andy

In 1.1 I can successfully create a category

I have the same problem.


After enabling "Slide Show" in preferences I cannot see anything in Albums or Slide Show blocks. Only error I get is "Notice: Use of undefined constant _MI_EXTGAL_B_TOP_DESC - assumed '_MI_EXTGAL_B_TOP_DESC' in file /modules/extgallery/xoops_version.php line 412"

It is a conflict between the libraries shipped with extgallery and the ICMS core libraries.

I had at one point been rebuilding the libraries to work with ICMS - but have no idea what happened to the work... I can look around - but may have to start over.

With everything that on my plate right now - I simply cannot get this done in any kind of a hurry - right now my focus is on finishing the iForum templates.

I found the same was true of extCal - there is a function called toggle() that is also in the scriptaculous library. By renaming the extCal function and its references in the code, things worked a bit better.

yes -

include/admin.js - change toggle to something else - like ext_toggle
then look around in the admin files like perm-quota.php and search for onClick="toggle and change each instance to onClick="ext_toggle...


The slideshow should work fine if you include mootools in your header. I guess xoops ships with moo now?

Alright - I did it anyway.

Here are the new files for extgal.

include/admin.js
admin/perm_quota.php

if there are any more bugs let us know.

Thanks Will - I'm currently looking to see what issues exist between 1.04 & 105 with 1.1.1 - apart from the new sanitise functions - used in the "hook hack" - I cant see many others...

Nice work!

This is a good lesson for all developers - please be very aware of your naming conventions and if you are adding your own functions and classes, give them a unique prefix to prevent namespace conflicts

great work. thank you for fixing the problems.

Will the fixed Extgallery 1.05 module be added within the addons on icms.org?
So we don't need to look for files/codes to patch the original module again and again ourselves.

TIA

Thats a good idea Shine.

Myself and a few others are doing some work with Addons over the next week or so... theres a few things that need some updates etc... so if anyone can test Will's update - we'll add an ammended version as well.

I'd preffer to add the modified files to the module, and keep the original files zipped up inside it as well - that way it's easier to compare with the original work.

It would also be worth passing the changes back to Zoulou... the same issue will almost certainly hit uses of other systems perhaps... and perhaps its a simple modification he can make for future releases?
