title link in weblog title list

2006-10-08T02:56:21-06:00

I would like to have as the title in the weblog title list a link to a document which would be downloaded from the link. I had this working, but now it ain’t. After testing a few things, it seems to me that that title is auto-linked to the entry (which makes sense!). Where can I alter the code so that when I use the link code for the uploaded document, a click on the title in the weblog title list will allow a document download?

Option B of course is to use a title, and have the link in the body. But Hey! There must be a way.

A Simple Dynamic Index Cache for pMachine 2.4

2006-02-24T14:57:55-06:00

1) Verify that the RSS factory is correctly enabled and index.xml has 666 permissions.

2) Install the cache per the original instructions provided with the program.

3) Modify the new “index.php to add this code before the test statement:

if ($cache == 1)

New code:

$xmltime = filemtime("index.xml"); // Change this if you are using a name other than index.xml for RSS

$cachedtime = filemtime("cache_time.txt"); // this could also be cache_file.php, but it can be very large file

if($xmltime > $cachedtime) $cache = 1;

Every time you add an entry to the blog, the index cache will be updated.

NOTE: I set $time = 600; in my index.php (10 hours), if you have other considerations you might want to set it to a smaller value.

If I discover issues or enhancements, I will post.

NOTE: For some reason you must do a dummy post to get the cycle started.

I have very limited experience and knowledge of PHP, if there is a PHP person that would volunteer to help with this scheme it would be much appreciated. It needs some tuning, etc to make more efficient and to verify success of the cache file.

I come from an Assembler, C and Turbo Pascal background, so I can follow some aspects, but serious details are beyond me.

Is it possible to hack so that more than one theme can be use in one domain?

Hi

Thank You

Sub Categories in pMachine

2005-04-30T18:45:37-06:00

Hi all, I’ve just finished writing a mod for pMachine which allows the addition of Subcategories.

I have added some tags to display the current category name, any sub-categories of the current category, and a bread-crumb trail to the current category.

You can see all this in action on my website - http://www.maybetomorrow.co.uk

It is very new, and untested in many ways, so if anyone would like to try it out, that would be great. I’m not looking to charge for this, so please get in touch if you are interested!!

Ta!

Required Fields in Entry form

2006-01-14T12:00:19-06:00

I am new to pmachine (v 2.4) and I am currently designing a collective weblog entry form.

I notice that pmachine requires the user to enter a title and put something into the body. Does anyone know a hack for making it also require the user to select a category?

I’ve tried to work through the code, but I can’t even figure out where it checks to see that the title and body fields have been populated. Any suggestions would help.

Thanks

Poll Mod - Polling Software for pMachine

2005-03-13T11:32:50-06:00

Just wanted to let everyone know about my newest creation—Poll Mod!

Best,
Patrick

....

Poll Mod is a polling software mod for pMachine.

In the past, pMachine users had few options for adding polls to their pM-based websites. Since other poll software packages weren’t designed to work with pMachine, integration with existing websites was difficult, time-consuming, and beyond the capabilites of most pMachine users.

But now pMachine users now have a much better option � Poll Mod.

• Fully functional poll system, with robust features for your online polling needs:
  - Individual polls with one question and up to ten answers
  - Vote tallies are graphed in relative or absolute form
  - Polls can be ‘opened’ and ‘closed’ � just like weblog entries

• pMachine control panel support � add, edit, and delete polls using the pMachine control panel.

• pMachine comment system support � users can comment on individual polls, just like other blogs!

• Queue support � by future dating polls, you can publish polls in batches. When the poll date becomes current, the poll will appear. Until then, it will remain hidden.

• Suggest a Poll � users can contribute their own poll ideas using Poll Mod’s submission form.

• Tag-based architecture, just like pMachine. Use the polls() tag to display your polls and poll_block() tag to show the most current poll.

• Customize your polls using Poll Mod’s preference panel:
  - Give your polls area its own custom name
  - Graph vote counts relatively or absolutely
  - Set the number of polls to be show on each page
  - Enable poll comments
  - Set the width for the poll results table and vote column, answer column, and poll bar columns.
  - Customize the poll date format
  - Customed the ‘Posted by’ date format
  - Modify the left and right marks used to enclose poll vote counts

• Newer/older links allow users to easily navigate from poll to poll

• Poll Mod output is fully XHTML/CSS compatible

• It’s free (and licensed under the GPL)!
