I probably should have posted this earlier but I wanted to get the site back up and running first.

The site I've installed TinyPortal on is DeltaBravo.net; a site where parents can find help with divorce and custody issues, as well as learn about Parenting Evaluations, a tool that Family Courts often use to determine who should be the primary or "custodial" parent.

The site has been mostly moribund for a while but there's still a lot of good information that people search for every day (this is why the Search function was crucial to me).

It's so much faster and cleaner after porting it from e107. (Yes, e107 is a capable CMS, but using it is like driving your battleship to the mini-market; it's way more complicated and fiddly than most people will ever need.)

Feel free to have a look: DeltaBravo.net
 

Cheers!

Quote from: MrMike on September 11, 2023, 11:32:14 PMI think there's an issue with using double-quotes in the title field in a couple of screens, like in the administrating a category screen and when creating or editing an article, etc. If you use a title like this:

Experts Say "Millennials" Are Killing The Pickle Industry

...what you'll end up with in the title field after saving it is:

Experts Say

Everything after the first quote is clipped off (including the first quote). I think this may also happen with single quotes in some places as well but I'm not 100% certain about that.


Confirmed: titles of Categories, Articles and Downloads are being truncated when using double quotes.
Singe quotes work fine by the way...

Interestingly the Download categories DO accept the double quotes without issue

I can manually put a new icon in the directory and it appears in the list, but not when I upload it. I'm wondering if this might be a directory permission issue on my end perhaps (??)

There is no function to upload icons from the user interface: you can upload an image (screenshot) that will show as illustration for the one upload, but not as a re-usable icon.
If you want extra icons you will need to load them via ftp (as you did)

Quote from: tino on September 14, 2023, 10:45:02 AM3) Also, one feature suggestion, if you feel it has merit. I'd love a Delete button (just for admins) on the edit screen for article pages so the page could be killed off on the spot. Hunting down a rogue article and paging to it can take a while.


Just looking into this: it seems a usefull feature, but I am puzzled what page you would expect to return to after deleting an article in edit mode: you cannot return to the article page, since it is not there anymore.

Obvious solution would be to return to the "Articles in category" admin page, but that will be pretty confusing if the user is just accessing the article direct form the viewing page and deletes the article: you dont wat to dump them in an admin page.

The alternative would be to return to the category page for the category the article was in, but that has a similar downside for a user that comes from the admin page... seems like a catch 22.
I do not see a way to 'know' where a user came from before they edited the article...

 :hmm: I thought the install took care of all those updates.

Did we not at some time state, that to go to the latest version one should first upgrade to 1.6.x ?

Thanks Tino

I found more blocks further down that had these settings missing. So far a clear error log, thank you!

Quote from: @rjen on September 22, 2023, 08:12:52 PMI think we should make this change permanent for the next release. There is no danger in allowing this permission for guests

That change makes sense to me. In our case it would prevent the majority of visitors from delving further into the site, people usually won't create an account just to do searches.

In any case, thank you again for your help; this was one of the last few remaining items I've been working on.

Cheers
