how to change the date format?

[cumbe]

Hi Oleg06,
Inside de guestbook.php , in +- line 353 and line 415, is:

Code:

...
              else if ($n == 'date'){

                      $d = lngDate($d);
...

lngDate(), is a function of /admin/inc/basic.php.
Too, in basic.php there is other function shtDate(); but you can to use other function of php directly: http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.date.php

Regards.

[Oleg06]

why these lines are loaded from a file en_US

Code:

"DATE_FORMAT"                                    =>    "d.m.Y", //please keep short
"DATE_AND_TIME_FORMAT"                =>    "d.m.Y - G:i ", //date and time

[Oleg06]

but is it possible to change the order in which the messages by date?

[cumbe]

but is it possible to change the order in which the messages by date?

This is not finished yet; now i'm doing to can choose the order that are showed the comments:
- I (increasing), of first comment to last.
- D (decreasing), of last to first.

[cumbe]

ONLY FOR GETSIMPLE VERSIONS 3.0 or LATER

Upload version 4.0 of guestbook to extend, too.

Web test: http://cumbe.no-ip.biz/gs30/libro_invitados/

Changes:
The most important is that you must pass the user will receive the email's notifications; the number of comments by page that show (pagination); and the order that are showed the comments:
- I (increasing), of first comment to last.
- D (decreasing), of last to first.

The guestbook must be called so:
<?php sv_book('nameofuser', numberofcommentsbypage, 'D'); ?>

For example: <?php sv_book('cumbe', 3, 'D'); ?>
only show 3 mains comments with all theirs replies.

From this verison is compatible with internationalization i18n of getsimple: http://get-simple.info/wiki/plugins:i18n

Is possible to reply to comments, keeping the order.

Now, automatically redirection to page Guestbook at 2 seconds ó push Back.

Unzip the file in folder Plugin.
Structure in directory Plugin:
* guestbook.php
* folder guestbook:
- arial.ttf.
- comprueba.php
- img_cpt.php
- folder img_emots: inside there are emoticons. If you want add more emoticons, only you have que paste *.gif in this folder.
- folder lang: with 2 translations, es_ES and en_US.

Regards.

PD: I upload the file again because I have the wrong file.... I'm sorry

[Oleg06]

you are different folders for translation

Code:

.i18n_r('guestbook/Ev').'

, and for images

Code:

/guest_contact/img_cpt.php

[cumbe]

Yes, I was wrong file....
Upload one good.

Regards

I would like to add few fields to guestbook? Any tips how this can by easy done?

[cumbe]

Hi eline,
For example to add one field called 'myfield', you have to do 3 things:

1) In guestbook.php: in function myform (...), line +-512, add 1 row (tr) and 2 columns (td) for each field

Code:

echo '<tr>';
    echo '<td align="right" style="vertical-align: middle;">';
    echo '<p style="margin-bottom: 3px;"><label>'.i18n_r('guestbook/myfield').':</label></p></td>';
    echo '<td><input style="margin-left:2px; width: 444px;" type="text" name="guest[myfield]" />';
    echo '</td></tr>';

2) In guestbook/comprueba.php: in line +- 168 to 200, add enter lines, (these lines save data)

Code:

$cdata = $thislog->addChild('myfield');
      $cdata->addCData(htmlentities($temp['myfield'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));

3) In guestbook/lang/yourlanguage.php: add each field into array,

Code:

....
        "myfield" => 'Field added',
....

If you want change some colour in the table of comments, you can to do it, in guestbook.php, line +-1900 in <STYLE TYPE="text/css">.....

Regards.

[eline]

Almost done, two more question
How you set up required fields?
How I can switch off "reply" to another post?


// forget - I find solutions for both problems, now searching for a mail to admin about guestbook entry

[eline]

All solved - special thanks to CUMBE for help !

[Oleg06]

how to switch the language of your plugin?

[eline]

Oleg - language should by switched automatic with i18n plugin also in guestbook.

[eline]

I have translations to italian and polish. I need german and spanish, someone to trade ?

[Oleg06]

does not work
http://chaga-mushroom.com/1/guest/
have to rename the file ru_RU to en_US

[eline]

so we wait for developer I didnt switch languages yet as Im busy to build English version first.
I have to handle multiple guestbooks and multiple languages

[cumbe]

Hi eline,
To have multiple languages, and each guestbook has one language, the easiest is to pass the lang in the function sv_book($usu, $cada, $eleg, $LANG){ .... like 4 parameter.
For example: <?php sv_book("cumbe", 4, "D", "en_US"); ?>

Too, you must to comment the lines, global $LANG and $LANG = $data->LANG;

Code:

...
    //global $LANG;

    if (file_exists(GSDATAPATH.'users/'.$usu.'.xml')) {
                $data = getXML(GSDATAPATH.'users/'.$usu.'.xml');
                $EMAIL = $data->EMAIL;
                       //$LANG = $data->LANG;          
....

Thus always will use the language that you need.


Oleg,
In this moment, the language of guestbook is the language of user of getsimple....

[Oleg06]

Yes, it works, I put in the code

Code:

<?php sv_book('cumbe', 2, 'D'); ?>

:-) now I've corrected the code
I am ashamed

[Connie]

I just downloaded the actual zip from the EXTEND, I hope it is version 4.1 because there is no comment in the plugin files

I miss a short readme as there are quite some unclear situations:

1)
I uploaded the plugin and in administration panel/plugins/guestbook Igot the message:

missing file: guestbook.log

I expected that the log is created automatically, isn't it?

I had to add it manually to the data/other/log-folder

2)
comprueba.php~

the zip contained that file in the subfolder /guestbook, I guess I can delete it?
in /lang there are also files with tilde ... please clean that

3)
I read that the guestbook can be included in either a page or a template, but:

Code:

<?php sv_book('nameofuser', numberofcommentsbypage, 'D'); ?>

this php-code is not correct in a page, so it works only in a template?

4)
I get annoyed .. the language file en_US.php is not coded in UTF-8, but in ANSII!
I thought we have UTF-8 as standard and your plugin is prepared for internationalisation?
Now I translated this to de_DE.php and get a horrible mess with umlauts..

5) font-colors are coded into the plugin, not by CSS, please change that

Code:

<font>

is deprecated HTML

6) Redirect text is written inside the plugin, not in the language file

7) line 114 in comprueba.php: default email-adress is hardcoded and is not user-adress from the settings

this plugin is not "get simple" it is "you need to finetune it to get it ready for working"



Cheers, Connie
