Just wanted to let you all know that today July 3rd my server is being moved so some down time is expected, but will hopefully be minimal.

Article Comments

I'm not a fan of the comments plugin that comes with PHPCOW and I was doing some searching around and found this, and I thought someone on this forum might find it useful as well.

You can add comments to your articles in a matter of minutes completely free and only 3 lines of code!!! It can also make a RSS feed with the comments which might come in handy.

'Invalid serer root' error on install!

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 13:07:12 -0400

Hi all,

Hopefully somebody can assist. Call me fussy but I'll been waiting for a PHPCOW technical ticket to get replied to for over 53 hours now!

I keep getting an 'Invalid serer root' error on 'File System Settings' page with or without 'Server root (optional)' field information. Details are the same as Dreamweaver ftp settings which I used for uploading files to site.

I briefly used their live support for the small amount of time it was available for this morning but to no avail.

Regards,

Steve

IE is breaking me up!

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 08:56:22 -0400

Wow, it's kind of odd to me. Wen I started designing sites, I used to always have to reconfigure to get Firefox to display them right...now its the opposite. IE is totally breaking my phpcow site. Anyone else having IE issues or am I the only lucky one?

Run php script

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 01:31:38 -0400

Hi everyone

i'm trying to run the following code for each page.

What i did is create a new function, added that code and then inserted that function into the Schema page. But everytime I do this I just get a blank white screen with no source code.

What i'm trying to do is utilise gzip. My server supports it and if I create a static file (abcdef.php) and add that code then it works perfect.

Any thoughts? Has anyone else implemented gzip with PHPCOW???

Sat, 28 Jun 2008 02:58:41 -0400

Hello!

I´m new in phpcow :-) and happy I found your forum. I look around but don´t find a answer for my problems.

I create many times the sub-category for the navigation (with news_default-subcategory and then edit). Was running correctly with three or four subcategorys. I create the next, save it and like to test, all my subcategorys are empty.

On the main page I have many free place between Windows and the foot navigation. I don´t find a option to edit this. (see pic1) or at http://www.info-my.de

U have a answer please write and thanks for help

List of phpCow variables that can be used in custom functions?

Tue, 24 Jun 2008 10:07:03 -0400

Does anyone have a list of phpCow variables that I can use in my custom functions?

I am currently trying to find something similar to $catUri->getCatId() that will return the current category name of a page (the above var returns the CatId, but I'd like it to return the name instead).

Thanks!
Jim.

Hard To Install When....

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 17:00:00 -0400

So i've installed the script and then after waiting awhile (and using the support system a couple times) I finally got an activation link....and guess what... IT DIDNT WORK!

It said....

"Unable to get product activation information. Activation key you provided is invalid. "

So is this an error on my part or theirs? Hard to ask them since they never seem to be around to answer their support tickets...Their site states

"Live Support Is Available Through Online LiveHelp for at least 10 hrs a day. Ticket based support also exists which works for 12 hrs a day. "

Obviously that is BS

Looking for anyone interested in being a Moderator on here. You really only need to help me keep up with the spammers in here as they are getting a little out of control. I have been trying to keep on top of them, but I figured if anyone was willing to help out it would be much appreciated. So anyone listed let me know either post in here or PM me.

Much appreciated!

About to put the cow to pasture

Sun, 15 Jun 2008 13:33:53 -0400

:peace: I have never been so frustrated with a program than I have with phpcow. It has a mind of its own and does not want to listen. I am about to put it to pasture and let it fend for itself. :sos:

I just want to apologize for not being on much. Sadly, my real life is taking me away from here and all my work. I won't go into more detail but I just want to thank everyone who is posting and helping the community, I will hopefully be able to add more soon. I hate being away from here just when we're getting going.
