Archives not working with 4images 1.7.1

Sorry. No support will be given on this one as I already explained that I do not use 4images v1.7.1.

[ID25]

But, if you download this version and install, then you have it

if you know good php, you just see whats new there..

i've read somewhere in this forum.... i guess it's similar to the guestbook mod prob...
you have to edit your template (news.html)

find

Code: [Select]

<!-- BEGIN CONTENT -->
{if msg}<br /><b>{msg}</b><br />{endif msg}
{contents}
<br />
                  <!-- END OF CONTENT -->
replace with

Code: [Select]

<!-- BEGIN CONTENT -->

{if msg}<br /><b>{msg}</b><br />{endif msg}<br />
{news_contents}<br />
{contents}
<br />

<!-- END OF CONTENT -->
am i right???

// [Bugs-Correction] - admin/news.php

I encountered some slight bugs in the admin/news.php file. For those who encountered some errors when using the search page for the news, this is what you have to do to fix.

In that file,

find :

$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS news
           FROM ".NEWS_TABLE."           
           WHERE $condition";
$countusers = $site_db->query_firstrow($sql);

replace with :

Code: [Select]


$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS news
           FROM ".NEWS_TABLE." n
           LEFT JOIN ".USERS_TABLE." u ON (".get_user_table_field("u.", "user_id")." = n.user_id)
           WHERE $condition";
$countusers = $site_db->query_firstrow($sql);


Then, find :

if ($limitfinish > $countusers['users'] == 0) {
    echo "<b>".$limitfinish."</b>.";

add above :

Code: [Select]


$countusers['users'] = array();


Then, find :

if ($limitnumber == "") {

add above :

Code: [Select]


$limitnumber = "";


That should be all.

At now this mod work with 4images 1.7.1
thank's 

[TheOracle]

At now this mod work with 4images 1.7.1

Are you saying that, after implementing this patch, this works with 4images v1.7.1 now ? 

[BartAfterDark]

Is there a way to put the date under the headline. It seems the only way is to edit index.php. But can't figure out what?

*EDIT*

Got it working. Just added <br /> to the main.php language file (where the date is) and that worked
