[07:35] well another sunny day in my cave :)… (i work in a 25m heavy wall room no window -> planned for a recording studio) [08:44] *** kreditkid has joined #tikiwiki [08:44] is there a way to randomize banner ads in tiki? [09:00] *** DarkCalfz has joined #tikiwiki [09:04] *** DarkCalff has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [09:16] kreditkid: i use banners on tw6x and i recall random display work [09:16] (i set it a a few month ago) [09:19] bernard: i'm running tw7. i just can't figure out how to program banners and set them to run randomly. [09:23] … let me look at it [09:24] Woot, just upgraded from 6 to 7 [09:24] that was relatively painless. [09:26] kreditkid: where did you try to set your banners ? tiki-edit_banner.php ? [09:30] *** xavi has joined #tikiwiki [09:31] hi kreditkid, I know two ways - a) the bannersystem itself, where you can configure, at what days and times they appeare in wich zone and b) using a module "random image", where you can show images from file galleries randomly - with b) I am not sure right now, if you could assign links to the individual images [09:31] hi xavi [09:32] did you read Marcs and my emails regarding to the proposed "Areas" feature? [09:33] Random image is "just" random image (from an image gallery). :) [09:34] is there any way to program several banners to run in one spot, but to randomly select a banner every time the page is accessed or refreshed? [09:35] About the banners you can also configure, by max click, by max impression, timed. Several banners put in the same zone will appears randomally. [09:35] oh, so when i set the banner zone to "top" or "right" or whatever, if I have several banners set to that zone then it will display them at random? [09:36] kreditkid: yes this is what i'm talking about. Set a banner zone, place it in your TW (can be in page but also in header, footer, etc) create several banners, assign them to a single zone and they will be displayed randomally (within your click, impression, time setting) [09:42] *** chibaguy has joined #tikiwiki [09:42] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o chibaguy [09:43] polom [09:43] kreditkid: I think banner rotation in Tiki 7 might be broken. I couldn't get it to work. [09:44] I think I filed a bug report. [09:45] Hi Chibaguy [09:45] Hi Bernard [09:45] As a workaround, you can use the random content feature. [09:45] *** blast_hardcheese has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [09:45] oh really? hmmm, i'll give it a shot and see if i can get it to work. [09:46] chibaguy: about fontface, do you know font squirrel ? [09:47] kreditkid: I'm trying to find the docs on that. [09:47] No, Bernard, what is that? [09:47] kreditkid: it's called dynamic content. [09:48] very usefull (fontface generator crossplateform) http://www.fontsquirrel.com/ I'll be glad to exchange with you font experiences. [09:49] (easy to find nice font uneasy to find readable for all fonts) :) [09:49] kreditkid: http://doc.tiki.org/Dynamic+Content+Admin [09:50] thanks, i'm checking that out now [09:50] so, dynamic content is the work around? [09:51] bernard, I'd be interested in font stuff aswell - very important and not easy to work with fonts [09:51] kreditkid: the banners feature is good because it counts views and hits, which the workarounds don't unless you code it yourself somehow. [09:51] Yes, with dynamic content you can have content that rotates. [09:51] fonts, color schemes, grids - much to be considered to get a design that's not looking selfmade and perhabs odd [09:52] So can have two or more banners rotating in one space. [09:52] gotcha. the way i've been setting up ads is by creating a banner and adding {banner zone=blahblah} to a custom module. is that the right way? [09:52] it's been causing some layout problems [09:52] yes, that's the normal way to do it. [09:53] but If you assign more than one banner to a zone, they won't rotate, at least when I tried it, in Tiki 7. [09:53] especially, if you are not an apprenticed nor an experienced designer ... never save money on design, I say frequently, esp. if you find a way to do the rest yourself [09:53] what do you mean by layout problems? [09:53] ok, cool. when you create a banner and it asks for the image url do you just leave that blank if you copy the html in from commission junction? [09:54] the left and right sides don't resize to acomodate ads [09:54] kreditkid, if you want the banners to rotate you can't use the banner feature to make the banners. [09:54] in tiki 7. [09:54] is it just a bug or was it intentionally made that way? [09:54] I made them just as little html snippets in the dynamic content admin. [09:55] it's a bug, a regression, it used to work and should still. [09:55] but doesn't in my trying anyway. [09:55] i wanna try it to see if i can get it to work. then, if not, i'll do the work around. [09:55] gonna go smoke first, brb [09:55] kreditkid, I think you shouldn't expect the left and right columns to resize for your ads. You should make ads that fit. [09:56] Or resize the columns. [09:56] They aren't meant to flex to accomodate content. [09:56] Anyway, banner ads are usually standard sizes. [09:58] fabricius: i agree, especially when dealing with different browsers. (IE grrrrrr) [10:00] I have quit hard time to finds font that fit well in every circumstances. (http://www.shocksite.com). Chibaguy you have some exemples ? [10:01] gotcha [10:01] guess i'm just being lazy ;) [10:02] i'm pulling banners/ads from commission junction, and they're just available in the sizes they provide. [10:02] so, i'm kinda stuck with what i have to work with [10:03] also, i tried sticking a banner in at the top but it screwed up the background picture and site name when i did that. it was like jammed in between them and it looked really bad. [10:03] *** blast_hardcheese has joined #tikiwiki [10:04] hi fabricius. Nope, I havent read those emails yet [10:04] and hi all [10:06] Hi Xavi [10:08] *** Bernard is now known as Bernard_miam [10:09] Bernard: what kind of examples do you mean? Actually I've only used the standard web-safe fonts in the past. Only in a site that I'm currently working on have I tried webfonts. [10:10] kreditkid, what size are the ads that you get? [10:11] They are problem standard banner sizes, but maybe wider than Tiki's side columns typically are (since some banners are narrower and some wider). [10:12] If you have a choice about the sizes commission junction makes, you could get a narrower size. Or else redefine the side column width to accomodate the ad. [10:12] for example, for one advertiser i can get 88x31, 336x280, 160x600, 120x60, 120x240, 300x250 or 486x60 [10:13] how do you change the size column width? [10:13] do you have to edit the template files? [10:13] chibaguy: ah ok :) [10:14] Bernard_miam: The fonts on your site look fine to me. Something isn't the way you want it? [10:20] xavi, I would be very interested in your concerns about "Workspaces" and to discuss the proposed "Areas" feature ... Marc mentioned that you have special needs [10:22] kreditkid: you can customize the themename.css easily - just make up a themename-customname.css and aplly that, then do the changes you want [10:22] no need to interfere with the .tpl files [10:22] i think i might have gotten it to work... [10:25] kreditkid: Or if you are happy with a theme that's there already, you can modify details like the column widths by adding CSS rules in the Look and Feel admin page's custom CSS textarea. [10:25] ok, i got the ads to auto-rotate with each refresh/access of a page [10:27] i have 120x600 and 160x600 skyscrapers in the left column now. the right column i'm gonna play with. not sure where to put banners at the top that won't interfere with the site logo and name. [10:32] For the top ones, you can put them in the topbar or pagetop module zone. Make a module and assign to one of those zones, with the banner as content. [10:34] i tried that, but no matter which zone i put it in at the top it winds up looking wonky. i have the left side looking nice now, though.

[10:54] xavi: sry, no ... waiting in front of the inbox - reading asap [10:58] to add a google plus button i had to add a javascript in my pages… i try in header.tpl didn't work. Someone ? [11:05] Bernard: I see. I haven't faced that challenge yet, really. [11:05] I recall what you said about the Hebrew text problems with IE. [11:08] chibaguy: it is not specific to hebrew in fact but hebrew (or i guess other non-latin language) make it look worst. IE does not preserve the font and pixelization (stairs) appears rapidly. With thin fonts it is terrible. If you can check Shocksite.com om ff then IE you'll see what i mean. :) [11:09] about non latin, some fonts (more than we think) are not. punctuations could be missing or numbers. [11:09] 'are not complete' [11:10] OK, I'll check in a while. [11:11] Well, most sites use a few standard fonts, so I guess the problem of incomplete doesn't come up much. Also probably the web page content stays within boundaries. [11:11] xavi: answered (jfyi) [11:18] anybody willing to look at my site and tell me if it's ad overload or not? [11:20] kreditkid: put the url anyone that wish will do [11:20] http://www.explorecreditrepair.com [11:21] look fine to me (left side is too empty) [11:23] cool, thanks [11:27] when the content will be more in the foreground, with menus and designed landing page, it will be OK, I think - not an overload, as the banners are not big blocks, but narrow enough to fit around the content unobtrusive [11:28] ly [11:31] kreditkid: good job with the banners. [11:32] But I clicked on the left-column one and got an error: ERROR: There was a problem handling your request. Please call us to resolve this issue. (It says "Lexington Law") [11:32] I guess that's out of your responsibility, but should be reported or something probably. [11:33] ah, ok. thanks for bringing that to my attention. and thank you. [11:34] yeah, i've added all the side ads that will fit for the advertisers i've been approved with so far. now i'm going through and adding all the top banners. there's a lot more of those. [11:36] Thx xavi - I read the linke demo [11:39] The righthand ad is ok, but the pagetop one also has the error as it links to the same Lexington Law place. (With google ads, site owners aren't supposed to click on the ads; I don't know how the place you are getting the ads from feels about that, but thought I'd click to check out the links.)

[13:56] *** Bernard has joined #tikiwiki [14:07] Anyone else having trouble with custom module content not displaying in the current branch 7? [14:18] A custom module with nobox=y, nothing shows. With nobox=y not set, only the title shows. [14:21] Hi chibaguy, I am on the way to install some 7.x branches now and to build up demo projects for some people [14:22] chibaguy, I will then have a look at this - maybe talk tomorrow? do not know, if I get there finished today. [14:26] Ok, thanks fabricius. [14:29] Hmm, maybe user error was the problem. In one case anyway, I had typos and syntax errors. :-| [14:33] And assumed I had uploaded an image that I didn't upload yet. No wonder it didn't show. Rrrr/ [14:35] just tell me if its sorted, otherwise we talk lateron, when I am settled with the installations [14:36] moving different stuff - perpectives, themes, grafics to individual subaccounts on the server [14:37] have to diviode some projects, that go to a next step and take them out of my own site, wich I have to finish now at least as vcard [14:37] divide [14:41] I'm also trying to figure out how HTML in wiki pages is supposed to work now. Apparently it has to be turned on as a global setting and also for each page that uses HTML? [14:41] I mean that does work, but I wonder why it needs to be activated on two levels like that. [14:42] On another topic, TheNews is another theme that has strange heading - text size disparities. [14:42] I wonder if the page title was always so huge. [14:44] Hmm, I'm still having problems with a custom module. The data works ok in a wiki page, but when used as dynamic content and displayed in a module using the RCONTENT plugin, nothing displays. Maybe still user error possibly though. [14:47] Succeeded in getting the same final effect using the Menu page module, to load a page that has the RCONTENT plugin, etc. So I guess this can be a general workaround if user modules are currently borked. [14:53] borked? [14:53] what's that? [15:00] ah looked up in the dictionary - custom modules are borked, really? [15:00] in branches? [15:10] Well, the site i'm installing is using the latest svn update. [15:10] (branch 7) [15:10] A site I have that has an older tiki 7 version is ok. [15:11] But I need to confirm this. I haven't been too careful tonight, so maybe it's user error. [15:12] But I did a simple test - a custom module with only a line of text, and it didn't display. [15:14] Hmm, on another topic: there's no back navigation in articles after you click on "read more" to go the body of the article. Shouldn't there be a "breadcrumb" or link back to the articles home page, from an individual article? I believe there was one before, but I haven't looked at articles much lately. [15:18] Hmm, setting the title of the articles page doesn't seem to work. I set it to "topic" but it displays "Articles" even when there is only one article and its topic is "News". [15:26] I have never realised a default breadcrumb like backlink [15:27] I just saw, that Di Nosos girlfriends father is The Frog (Grenouille) - oh man that's bad [15:28] A family, wich are very close friends with me and where I live until I can move into my house arebig NCIS fans :-D [15:28] Ithink Navy CIS in original [15:29] hmmm I need to learn to code shell scripts [15:29] it is so boring to set the chmod after unpacking Tiki always manually [15:44] tikiwiki: 03sept_7 * r36542 10/trunk/ (lang/fr/language.php lib/ templates/tiki-calendar.tpl): [ENH] Fullcalendar set default according to prefs [15:47] I don't see much TV, except for some on DVD.

[15:59] I guess people are supposed to use the menu. Hmm. [16:00] Well, I've thought for a long time Tiki needs a global breadcrumbs. [16:01] site index > top of current feature > [any intermediate levels] > current page . All are links except the current page which is just text. [16:02] wiki structure would be incorporated, as would forum breadcrumb, image gallery breadcrumb, etc. [16:03] current page text in breadcrumb could be optional as it's redundant if the page/object title is displayed.

I think maybe it shows the theme set in L&F but not the theme chosen by the user, which overrides L&F, but I haven't checked thoroughly. [17:02] And IIRC, the credits aren't using credits.tpl anymore, but only showing the theme name. To me this isn't so good because some outside designers require a link under the CC attributed license. Their themes can't be adapted to Tiki if the license requirements can't be met. [17:03] So if not credits.tpl then maybe some other means. [17:03] chibaguy: did you say this to me? [17:03] No, I'm just making noise. ;-) [17:03] ah, ok then [17:11] tikiwiki: 03changi67 * r36546 10/trunk/lib/tikilib.php: Avoid unused parameters [17:21] chibaguy: I did send the mail [17:22] chibaguy: "On another topic: the theme isn't correct in the footer "credits". ..." <- on wich theme and Tiki version you are talking?

I'm looking at the current branch 7 files (svn). In L&F, TheNews is set as the site theme, I used the switch-theme module to change to Eatlon, and the credits still show "Thenews". [17:27] My comment was about using Creative Commons-licensed themes, without thinking about who exactly would adapt them for Tiki. They need to link to the author's site, usually. Also some other designers require that. The 960 discussion is separate. [17:27] kk [17:30] Well, I've got to get to be (2:30am here). so g'night for now.
