Hi

i cant get this to work:

<td>
<img id="Okobo_v4_header_14" src="images/Okobo-PSD--15.png" width="781" height="45" alt="" /></td>
</tr>
 <tr>
<td background="images/Okobo-v4-main-exp.png">
<div>{TEASER_EX:news_lb|-1:-1:default:0:1}</div>
<div align="left" style="margin:20px 20px 0px 20px;">
{CONTENT}
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

im using 1.1 RC4 atm with:

Operating system FreeBSD
Kernel version 5.2.1-RELEASE
Apache version 1.3.33 (Unix)
PHP version 4.3.11
MySQL version 4.0.16

what am i doing wrong?

thanks

Hi

if you don't have the last Version of 1.1RC4 the Frontend-Rendering is not implemented and can't work. Look in your conf.inc.php for :

Code: Select all

$phpwcms["allow_ext_init"]    = 1;  //allow including of custom external scripts at frontend initialization
$phpwcms["allow_ext_render"]  = 1;  //allow including of custom external scripts at frontend rendering

if this is not in your conf then you first have to update your Version.

those lines of code are in my conf.inc.php file.

any other suggestions?

im trying to display some articles in my newspage on the left hand side, so i can have an "image of the day..." (i'll sort out the alignment by using div tags).
Im putting the code into a template which is then exclusively applied to the front page, i want to take the articles for the left bit, from news_lb a page which has template similar to the one in question(does this matter).

http://okobo.com/cms/index.php?index - the page in question
http://okobo.com/cms/index.php?news_lb - the page where the articals are coming from

thanks

Hey Kobos,

Looks like you're not using the right format. There should be 7 colons.

Cheers,

Jens

Hello Kobos,

I think JensZ is right:

I have the feeling that there is something missing in your call...

Just for reference, so you can double check...
I post here Erich's usage instruction comments,
from within the reptag itself:

Code: Select all

    // TEASER_EX replacementtag (by Erich Munz, 2005)
    //
    // Version 1.06
    //
    // Tested with phpwcms ver 1.2.3 DEV

    //         count             Number of articles to show from this category, -1 for all articles
    //         ------------------
    //         articles_per_page Number of articles on one page, -1 all articles on one page
    //         ------------------

    //         sortdir           sort direction VALUES ASC or DESC

    //         ------------------
    //         columns           Number of columns VALUES >= 1
    //                           To format the Table and the Tablecells you can use the CSS-Values teaserTable, teaserTableLeftCell and teaserTableRightCell
    //                           in the "default css"-section of the backend
    //                           e.g.

    //         ------------------
    //         exclude_articles  List of article id's
    //                           VALUES  e.g. 10,15,23 or empty
    //                           These articles are not visible in the result list
    //                           useful if your "TEASER_EX Article" is in the same category as the articles
    //
    // example: {TEASER_EX:en_general|3;en_fairs|-1;en_jobs|-1:3:article_begin|DESC:1:Page:1:10,15,23}
    //          {TEASER_EX:en_general|3:6:default:0:Seite:2:}

Could someone help me. I'd like the script to show the latest 5 articles from categories called: ds, gizmondo, nokiangage and sonypsp. A total amount of 5 articles not 5 from all of the categories. I'd also like summaries to be shown. What kind of code would do this?

Thanks.

it'd be kinda like this:

{TEASER_EX:psp|5;ngage|5;ds|5;gizmondo|5:20:default:0:Seite:2:}

apart from set it to sort it by date instead of default

i have a problem my self its with the displaying of images:

this is the source page:
http://www.okobo.com/cms/index.php?news_lb

theis is the target:
http://www.okobo.com/cms/index.php

see the images of the shrooms isn't even registered let alone displayed

im using my expandable content box mod for this which slots into the article listing part:

Code: Select all

<div align="left">
<table width="170px" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" margin-left="0px">

 <tr>

   <td background="images/okobo-lb-cb-01_TOP.png" width="170" height="21" align="center">
       [TITLE]<h5 style="margin:0 0 5px 0;">{TITLE}</h5>[/TITLE]
   </td>

 </tr>

 <tr>

   <td background="images/okobo-lb-cb-01_MIDDLE.png">

    <div align="center">
        <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="160px">
          <tr>
           <td width="90%" valign="top">
             [IMAGE]<div><a href="{ARTICLELINK}">{IMAGE}</a></div>[/IMAGE]
             [CAPTION]<div align="center">{CAPTION}</div>[/CAPTION]
           </td>
           <td width="10"><img src="img/leer.gif" border="0" width="10" height="1" alt=""></td>
          </tr>
        </table>
     </div>
   </td>

 </tr>

 <tr>

   <td><img src="images/okobo-lb-cb-01_BOTTOM.png" width="170" height="25"></td>

 </tr>

</table>

</div>

Try this one:

Replace line 482 (v1.0.6) with

Code: Select all

return str_replace("<br /><br />", "<br />", html_parser(render_PHPcode($listing)));

Erich

thanks but it doesnt work

how did you get it to display images

was it right off the bat? and what versions has it worked with? im using
1.1 RC4

what about this

should it be made true and does thumb_img do anything?

Code: Select all

  // build image/image link
                    $article_list[$key]["article_image"]["poplink"] = '';
                    $thumb_image = false;
                    $thumb_img = '';

lines 253 to 256

@kobos:

{TEASER_EX} was only tested with version >=1.2.3 DEV, so i don't think it will work as expected with 1.1....

Erich

i got it to work, i had to update to 1.2.5 which i messed up so i then had to delete my database and start again .
