Store customer upload


Design and Skin Customization

I'm talking about when someone buys a product. For example, if I were to sell a t-shirt with a custom-imprinted image, how do I facilitate the buyer uploading said image when they purchase this?

Store customer upload


Design and Skin Customization

Is it possible to add an option to a specific product to allow customers to upload a file? Like for ordering a custom postcard or a t-shirt, for example.

truncate with inserted image


Design and Skin Customization

Won't this strip out the photo? Many blog indexes have a list of recent blogs which consist of a picture then some text and then a link to read more. That's what I'm trying for.

truncate with inserted image


Design and Skin Customization

300 characters truncated was producing this error with an image at the beginning, throwing the page off. I generally like an image at the beginning of a post and this error occurs also if you put the image in the blog_image field. I could move the image down, of course, but other users will not know that this should be done.

truncate with inserted image


Design and Skin Customization

I have something like this to list blog posts:

{$row.blog_text|jrCore_format_string:$item.profile_quota_id|truncate:300}

There is an issue with this when a post contains an inserted image at the beginning. I think it just stops outputting the rest of the template where this resides and at that point, and then continues outputting the rest of the page.

For example, I have the above in index_list_blogs.tpl, in an altered Elastic skin. I'm listing 5 recent blogs in the center column of index.tpl. The list of blogs is the last thing in that column. I have a blog post with an inserted image at the beginning of the post. It outputs the image, but nothing else. The last column is output, but the closing divs in the center column are missing so the last column is output down below the container.

I think you should be able to test this in jrElastic since I haven't altered much besides moving blocks around. Probably you understand what's going on without needing to test it. I'm guessing the image is stored as a blob so the truncate length includes the blob, but something happens when truncating in the middle of that.

Maybe there is already something in jrCore_list which accounts for this. I'm not sure what the best way would be, but I think I would like to include the inserted image in this particular blog list, however, I can also see where you might want the option to not include inserted images in a jrCore_list listing as well.

I'm guessing you mean the ultrajam forum.

ulgooglemaps on profile

I took out "skin=true" and it works now. Thanks -- very nice.

Incidentally, in Chrome on a Mac when entering the address in the form, clicking on it in the dropdown doesn't register. I have to type in the entire address, selecting it from the dropdown doesn't do anything.

ulgooglemaps on profile


Design and Skin Customization

I have this in profile_index.tpl which is in my skin directory

{ujGoogleMaps_map skin=true name="map" map=$_profile module="jrProfile" height="300"}

Nothing displays ( I do get a map in the profile form).

The docs say to put the code in modules/jrProfile/templates/item_index.tpl which doesn't exist.

That's the first time I've seen the connection error. The site was down for some time after that. It's been sluggish now since then. It seems things were getting better. The dashboard showed 16 cpu's and a 5-minute load under 1 for a few weeks, so I was feeling OK. Even purchased another domain through them as I like their simple interface (Moniker has gotten way too complicated recently). But then it went back to being poor (this is what I'm tired of, the up and down inconsistency and never being able to rely on service). The load has been back up to over 3 for several days and the drive capacity is back up to 95%.

Today, the site was responding very slowly. Then, the mysql server went down and my site is completely inaccessible: CRI: Error connecting to MySQL Server: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) (#2002) - the site owner should contact their hosting provider for assistance.

Getting tired of this.
