Re: Useful links/services

Problem with these static link lists is they become outdated if not maintained.. sites go down or, for example, the compileonline one now redirects to an online education tutorials selling site.

Re: Useful links/services

A few widgets to add to your site, they do limited free versions that seem quite good as well as more advanced ones.

I installed the additional pages module for Piwigo, but I found when I created a additional page I could not put in any code, it only seemed to allow basic text (basic text it saved the page fine fine, but entering code it threw up errors)

So after you have created the additional page save it without entering anything, then you have to then go to your database and look up the additional pages, then you can past the code for the widget into there. 

But maybe I only had that problem with the additional pages module not accepting code because of the theme I am using, I am using the Bootstrap Darkroom (Bootswatch Cyborg) theme.

Re: Useful links/services

@cerberus I can edit easily the Additionnal Pages with the FCKEditor plugin. To get a more complete toolbar for FCKeditor, I even added this in Local Files Editor, first tab :

Code:

$conf['fckeditor_toolbar_always_full'] = true;

I put a screenshot in my forum, I don't know how to post it here :
https://agora.chauvigne.info/viewtopic. … 4156#p4156

The result on my Piwigo :

Re: Useful links/services

I did try the FCKeditor, but it still would not save, everytime it gave a white screen with a error when I hit save  (with basic standard text I did not have a issue and it would save fine, but it would not save when using code).

But then maybe because I did not add the bit of code you supplied ?  or maybe its because of the theme I am using ? or maybe its because of the free webspace I am using ?

I am new to all this so its hard for me to say what the problem could be, still not to matter I found I can get around it by pasting the code directly into the database under the extra pages section.

Re: Useful links/services

First of all, you may add in the description html and css, not other code.
Then you must add it in source mode , which you reach by clicking on the first button named ... Source.

When you have entered the code in source mode, you have to get out of source mode  before saving your entry.

The code I gave you enables only the use of more commands via the toolbar.

FCKEditor is available for Additionnal pages, for the descriptions of photos, not for albums.
And the collection of commands available via the toolbar can make data entry easier without having to go through source mode.

Also, adding following code to Local File Editor first tab may help :

Code:

$conf['allow_html_descriptions'] = true;

Re: Useful links/services

I was posting the code for the plugins, maybe that is why it gave errors.

Maybe I will try again at some point if I add more pages.

Thank you for your help and info :)
