ext content bug?

1996 328ti · Post by **1996 328ti** » Fri 1. Apr 2005, 07:40

I posted this in the bug tracker but maybe I am just doing something wrong?

In previous versions I used ext content to call a html page with a form.
I did this because when creating a form in WYSIWYG did not work well. Whenever I needed to edit the form table tags would appear in the fill in boxes.

With Release 1.1-RC4 27-08-2004 the form appears in the article but when I press submit I get an error 404 message. If I use the form via the direct url it works properly. I have gone back to using WYSIWYG but it will not work as well as ext content.

Is something different with this version?

I was afraid someone would ask that.

I have backups of before the upgrade.
Looking at one of the changelogs I see 03-06-2004.
Where would I find find the version?
Is it in a sql table?

Yes I know. My current version is Release 1.1-RC4 27-08-2004.
What I don't recall is what my previous version is.

might be a setting:
$phpwcms["allow_remote_URL"] = 1;

Now it is time for me to need this function.
Where is $phpwcms["allow_remote_URL"] = 1; located?
I see it setup.config.inc.php but that was used when I originally installed the program.
My current version is Release 1.1-RC4 27-08-2004

maybe look into your conf.inc.php

hello

wich release did you use!?

Post by **Oliver Georgi** » Sun 31. Jul 2005, 19:44

Place these lines in conf.inc.php - before the closing "?>" - that's all.

Oliver

I tried it but will try it again. Thanks.
I want to use the ext content part so I can call on a form.
Whenever I use a html form in WYSIWYG and edit it I extra html in the context filed of the form. If I copy and past the form in the WYSIWYG article, I'm fine. It's only when I got to edit the form that it messes up. I figured it would be better to edit the form away from phpwcms but have run into this problem of error 404, file not found. I am quite sure the url is correct.

Pappnase,
I'm using version 1.1-RC4 27-08-2004

Thanks.

your provider has to allow remote URL too.

allow_url_fopen = On

So if it is not working check your phpinfo();

Yep. Just checked, it's on.
It used to work with an older version of wcms.
I don't recall what version it was.
Maybe I'll update to the latest DEV version and see what happens.
I'm always uncomfortable with beta and developmental versions on a live site. On second thought, I'll install the latest DEV version on a test site and see what happens.

Thank you.

do so,

dev is more stable than "old" release.
