Bonus Fields

[jadwigo]

Yup

(the technical explanation: because php 5.1.6 does not support the parameter for debug_backtrace it does not execute, and does not tell the bonusfields extension where to place the bonusfield elements in the edit page)

The website is transfered to a server with PHP 5.2.11 and now Bonus Fiels works like it should. Thanks for the help.

I'm currently having trouble with Bonusfields for images. I can upload one etc. but it just takes the filename example.jpg and puts that in the HTML. It should be at least images/example.jpg because without it my image does not appear. Any suggestions? Where can I edit this?

Wouldn't that be something you solve in your template code?

I don't I have been very clear in my post above, let me try this again.

When I upload a photo Pivot automatically puts in the correct name where the image can be found. At this point Pivot somehow doesn't realize it should add all the folders (or some) for a browser to understand where that image is.

When I look up the code with Firebug it's there PERFECTLY (accept it's greyed out). <img> with a width, a height, an alt, the url. But that's where it goes wrong: it just says example.jpg but it should be images/example.jpg or whatever. Not looking forward to putting this in front there every time.

YES, I can do this in the template code but all my other PivotX's don't have problems putting the right folder in there either so I'm wondering what can cause this. Where should I look?

do you upload a picture in an entry or page, or as a bonusfields image? Can we see an example?

[Logfather]

You mean of the back-end I hope? Took several fields out but here's what goes wrong:

http://www5.picturepush.com/photo/a/5245248/img/5245248.jpg

On the front-end it's like I said: <img src="example.jpg" width="150px" height="150px" alt="lala" /> but that example.jpg doesn't lead anywhere because it should be lala/images/example.jpg.

Please listen to Schop. This is something you should fix in your template (using [[upload_dir]] in front of the filename). The Bonus field extension is storing the filename relative to the upload directory. This is the only way to make it portable - what if you move or rename your images folder?

PS! The reason it "works" for normal images in PivotX is that you use template tags that use [[upload_dir]] internally.

[Logfather]

He didn't mention [[upload_dir]] but I get your point.

Maybe - aside from myself - one other thing that is lacking here is the PivotX docs in general and several plugin docs specifically are lacking badly. I'm gonna write up some of this (Bonusfields) stuff and see if the creator wants to add it to his plugin because especially for the less advanced code junkies this can be a mission impossible.

Thanks for your help!

NEW PROBLEM [[upload_dir]] and [[$entry.extrafields.image]] next to each other produce two slashes, still works though...

I'm using a Bonus Field to get a page uri and want to combine that with $getpage. I'm a bit puzzled, because this only works if I assign the content of the bonus field to a new variable, and I don't understand why.

So this works:

Code: Select all

[[ if $page.extrafields.somepageuri  ]] 
    [[ assign var=extra_pageuri value=$page.extrafields.somepageuri ]]
    [[ getpage uri="$extra_pageuri " ]]
    <h2>[[ $page.title ]]</h2>
    [[ $page.introduction ]]
    [[ resetpage ]][[ else ]][[ /if ]]


but this doesn't:

Code: Select all

[[ if $page.extrafields.somepageuri  ]] 
    [[ getpage uri="$page.extrafields.somepageuri" ]]
    <h2>[[ $page.title ]]</h2>
    [[ $page.introduction ]]
    [[ resetpage ]][[ else ]][[ /if ]]


I've also tried

Code: Select all

 [[ getpage uri="[[ $page.extrafields.somepageuri ]]" ]]

When I use '[[ print_r var=$somepageuri ]]' and '[[ print_r var=$extra_pageuri ]]' the outcome looks the same.

Am I overseeing something, or can it just not be done without assigning the uri to a variable first?
