PivotX Tools

[rabbeltje]

i must be stupid... i uploaded the script, opened it and all i see is some information about the script. how can i actually use it..??

Download the script, save it as "pivotx-tools.php", put it in your "pivotx" directory and open it in your browser.

Seems rather clear cut to me.......
Obviously you have to upload it to your webserver (but you thought of that I imagine?)

I am not at home right now so I can test it myself. But what happens when you click on the link for the help page? I think you get the selections there.

i only get an explanation for what the options are, but nothing to actually change anything.

In the grey tab there are several links. Probably that's the menu (I am logged in on my site but am still using an old version of this tool).

[rabbeltje]

the grey tab does have links but they're not pointing anywhere :S this is the sourcecode:

Code: Select all

 <ul id="mainmenu" class="sf-menu sf-navbar">
       
        <!-- Current page: ptabout -->
        <li>
            <a href="" title=""><span></span></a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="" title=""><span></span></a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="" title=""><span></span></a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="" title=""><span></span></a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="" title=""><span></span></a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="" title=""><span></span></a>
        </li>
   
   
    </ul>

I've tried to analyse it. Even when you get an old version of the tools from Sourceforge the menu is not displayed (it should be in the bar like the dashboard). I traced it back to change 2706 to inc_header.tpl and data.php (that displays the menu for the dashboard). If you use a version of inc_header.tpl before that (e.g. change 2034) together with the tools, it works fine. But obviously the dashboard itself won't work properly anymore. Because the tools has its own render function (renderPTTemplate) there was probably something forgotten to change in here together with change 2706. As the change itself is huge and I don't know enough of the core structure of PivotX I'll have to leave this one for hans to sort out. I'd like to know what has caused this problem...........
