I'm trying to install geeklog and I get pass Step 2 of 2 and it goes to
show me success.php and I get:

 

No input file specified. 

 

I think because it is looking here:  admin/install/success.php

When it should have public_html in there but isn't.

 

Any ideas????

Subject: [geeklog-users] Theme Help
Message-ID: <DAEFIFMAKBBMDOENLOKCOEGNCMAA.shane@eyecravedvd.com>

I'm in the midst of creating a new theme and I need some help with the GL
coding and some php or javascript.

At the top of the screen I'm going to put a login link, which I would like
to either of the following:

1] When the 'login' text is clicked a pop-up window appears for the user to
login. Once they login it refreshes the page they are on, just like the
current geeklog, and then have text for login change to logoff.

2] I can do half of this, use the login link to go to the login page. Once
they've logged on I'd like the login text to change to logoff.

This is probably easy, but I can't seem to wrap my head around it.

Thanks,

Yikes. I would vote against that for two simple reasons:

1. Popups, in any form, are annoying.
2. User who have Javascript switched off will not be able to log in.

Thanks Dirk.

I was thinking more about the pop-up thing last night, after I'd sent the
e-mail, and remembered I hate pop-ups so why should I put one on purpose on
my website.

Geez, I remember reading that story a few months back, but I could find it
on a search. That's why I thought I'd ask.

Thanks again,

Shane

Subject: [geeklog-users] Static pages: text repeated on db insert
Message-ID: <2222578D-9AA5-11D7-AA82-000393113608@jungle.ca>

I am running Geeklog on two sites, my own and that of a volunteer 
organization to which I belong.

Both are 1.37sr2, but the one that works has the 0.1 static page module 
and the other has 1.2.

The one that works posts static pages in the normal way. The 1.2 
version repeats chunks of data (in this case text and html pasted from 
a text editor into the static page editor form).

It's almost as if the application started writing the data to the 
column, and then decided it was having too much fun decided to turn 
back a few paragraphs and started again. Here is an example of what 
happens:

http://www.jungle.ca/staticpages/index.php?page=20030609141452254

I have tried to match the configs on the two servers as much as I can. 
Both are PHP 4.2.2, on Apache 2.0. The working server has 
GPC_magic_quotes on, while the broken one had all magic_quotes off. 
Turning GPC magic_quotes on on the broken server didn't help.

Both have register globals on.

On the MySQL side, the working server has 3.23.52, whereas my broken 
one has 3.23.56

Both working and broken sites have the same lib_common.php - apart from 
the comments stuff, which has formatting changes only in the broken 
site.

I'd like it if I didn't have to go back to the old plugin, but the 
status quo is unworkable.

Subject: [geeklog-users] email problems upon registration
Message-ID: <001001c32eea$d2e60220$a2c19dd5@killer>

Hi!

I found several solutions to the problem I encountered but none of them helped me.

The problem is the following:

No password is sent upon registration of a new user.

However, both before and after I made the suggested change, one could send Emails via the user profile based form. That works fine.

The change I did was given at http://www.geeklog.net/article.php?story=20030514004238438#comments

****Here's a fix: In admin/mail.php find the line that starts with

if (!mail($til, stripslashes ($vars['subject']), ...

and replace the "$til" with "$A['email']", i.e.

if (!mail($A['email'], stripslashes ($vars['subject']), ...****


Well, It didn't help.

TIA,
Giorgi

That's not surprising, since that piece of code is for the "Mail Users"
function (in the Admin menu) and has nothing to do with the function that
emails the passwords ...

Subject: [geeklog-users] Problem with User Registration
Message-ID: <3EE66B65.8020904@knightswood.net>

I downloaded and installed Geeklog - all seemed to go well.
I installed to /home/geeklog, and gave apache full ownership of the 
directory.  Then I made the virtual site point to that directory.
Everything loads up just fine.  I can register a new user just fine, but 
the email that should be sent to the new user when they register never 
arrives in their inbox.

This is on a Gentoo Linux 1.4 system, which is serving email for me and my 
family with sendmail.

Looking at /var/log/syslog, I see the following entry:

Jun  9 19:19:29 lancelot sendmail[25209]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(apache): can not 
write to queue directory /var/spool/clientmqueue/ (RunAsGid=0, 
required=209): Permission denied

The /var/spool/clientmqueue directory is owned by UID/GID smmsp, and has 
owner/group perms for read/write/execute, but no "other" perms at all.
I've tried adding apache to the smmsp group, and that didn't help.

I don't want to mess with perms on that clientmqueue directory, for fear of 
causing a security problem, or worse, breaking my mail server.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Steven

Hi,

I recently downloaded a program for OS X that encodes mailto links 
using javascript so that web-crawlers can't identify the mailto link. 
Given the amount of spam that I get for my geeklog administrator 
mailbox, this seemed to be a useful addition. How would I embed the 
following javascript code into one of my blocks that has a link for 
sending messages? Do I need to create a php block to do this or can I 
do this in a normal block? What, if anything would I have to escape to 
make this work?The code is the encrypted result of the mailto link 
created by the program "Enkoder".

I'll put in my 2 cents.  I am only a short-term geeklog user (last month or
two).  I chose Geeklog because of its security model.  The article has some
good points. . .but I really don't think the user has tried to use access
levels much.  I will have to agree that Postnuke has many more modules (the
LDAP module and shopping cart module are two that I would like to be able to
have), but when it comes to configuring security/access levels, there is no
comparison.  Postnuke needs a lot of work on the security side to even
compare with Geeklog (especially with easy of setting security levels).  It
does have a more polished look and many more out-of-the-box features. . .but
unless you are running a site in which all info is publically accessible,
have fun.

Anyway, my 1.5 cents,

TechFan

PostNuke was one of a few forks formed by a huge fallout among
PhpNuke developers.  Last year, it had its own fallout where the
majority of its developers walked away.  Since then, PostNuke has
lacked direction and hasn't made much progress on its core code.
They had been evolving their code to where each release was
drastically different which was very hard on users.  All the
themes and modules were breaking badly on each new release.  It
required module/theme developers to do major rewrites each time
instead of just minor tweaks.  In a way it was good they slowed
down to a full stop.  The bad thing was they promised the next
major code revamp would be out first quarter of this year.  It
wasn't until about a week or two ago they finally told people why
the promised release never materialized.  They lost a huge amount
of code which they say was due to hard disk failure but was
really because yet another developer walked away.  Things haven't
progressed as they originally envisioned.

PostNuke has some features I wish Geeklog would adopt.  Many of
the modules are very nice too. I think the module developers are
the real reason users have kept an interest. The majority of the
modules are not using the API though so they aren't hooked into
the site's search, stats, etc.  Some include their own separate
search capability.

When I tried PostNuke, it ran extremely slow when safe_mode was
on.  Even with it off, it ran slower than Geeklog.  If you're
running a site where all the info is either viewable to the
public or admin it's an okay system.  If you want to do fine
grain security, forget it.  Their security system is awful. Well,
it does work, but it is so damn hard to understand.  Most people
either don't touch the default settings or have to ask each time
they want to do something.  The html to create pages is
interwoven in the code.  If you want to create a unique new
theme, you either have to fiddle with code or install one of the
template plugins which are not compatible across each other.
Every time I used the control panel, I wanted to tear the code
apart and completely redo it.  There were many things that didn't
seem in the right place to me or could have been done better.
Although Geeklog lacks some of the features, I never had the same
urge.  Personally, I think it would benefit us to do a survey
across the different CMS' to see what features others had now to
get ideas on how to improve our own.

As for the guy who thinks PostNuke is hands down the best, let's
see if his attitude changes if they can ever get the next major
revamp completed and released.  They have a phased plan which
entails several major revamps for them to reach their 1.0 goal.

The javascript can be taken as written here without escaping
anything and placed right into a normal block.  It should work
fine.  To avoid email bots, I use my profile's email form instead
and an.htaccess file to ban all the bad bots.

Hi,

I recently downloaded a program for OS X that encodes mailto
links
using javascript so that web-crawlers can't identify the mailto
link.
Given the amount of spam that I get for my geeklog administrator
mailbox, this seemed to be a useful addition. How would I embed
the
following javascript code into one of my blocks that has a link
for
sending messages? Do I need to create a php block to do this or
can I
do this in a normal block? What, if anything would I have to
escape to
make this work?The code is the encrypted result of the mailto
link
created by the program "Enkoder".

Thanks for responding. I just tried it in a normal block and got 
nothing. I then viewed the html source and noted that <br> were put 
after each line of the javascript...presumably leading to problems with 
the javascript interpreter appropriately identifying the code. Any 
other ideas?

Thanks,

Norm

I'm not PHP expert by any means. I just tried this and put the code 
created in an file and I included that file on my website with a <?php 
include "my.email.inc" ; ?>. The email address on the bottom of this 
page was done that way: sbmbc.com. I assume just putting the text on 
the page will work, but presumably you tried this or you wouldn't be 
writing. What Enkoder does doesn't seem to have anything to do with 
PHP, it's just HTML. I suspect I'm missing something about Geeklog here 
that is making this more complicated.

PS thanks for the info about the program. I had been meaning to do 
something like this for a long time.

PSS. My first posting to the group. Hope all is in order. But since I 
don't know much about what I'm writing about here, I expect some 
follow-up

Since Geeklog doesn't know whether the block contains HTML or plain text,
it looks at the very first character of the block content. If it's a '<',
it assumes it's HTML and doesn't apply nl2br() to the block content.

So if the <script> tag is the first thing in the block (no blank lines or
whitespace before that), there shouldn't be any <br> tags in the source.

Thanks, but I've found another problem. Geeklog is stripping slashes 
from the javascript code in this section:

i=0; document.write("\<a href=\"");
while( t[i] ) document.write("\&\#"+t[i++]+";");
i++; document.write("\" title=\"");
while( t[i] ) document.write("\&\#"+t[i++]+";");
i++; document.write("\"\>");
while( t[i] ) document.write("\&\#"+t[i++]+";");
i++; document.write("\<\/a\>");

When viewing the source, after loading the javascript, all the 
backslashes which are escaping the special characters are being 
removed. How do I go about preventing that from happening?

Backslash the backslashes :*)

Yes, Geeklog has a problem with backslashes (also with ampersands) in 
articles and blocks. When creating items that have such characters in 
them, I keep an off-line version which I edit using a text editor, and 
then paste it into Geeklog whenever I need to update the block or 
article.

If you are never going to update the block or article this isn't 
necessary. But if you do make changes occasionally, you'll find that 
your backslashes will disappear one by one every time you resend the 
article/block.

This is really odd.  I took the exact code you had posted here,
placed it in a normal block on the left side, and it worked fine.
Maybe the problem has something to do with Geeklog incorrectly
detecting whether magic quotes are on or off?

Thanks, but I've found another problem. Geeklog is stripping
slashes
from the javascript code in this section:

i=0; document.write("\<a href=\"");
while( t[i] ) document.write("\&\#"+t[i++]+";");
i++; document.write("\" title=\"");
while( t[i] ) document.write("\&\#"+t[i++]+";");
i++; document.write("\"\>");
while( t[i] ) document.write("\&\#"+t[i++]+";");
i++; document.write("\<\/a\>");

When viewing the source, after loading the javascript, all the
backslashes which are escaping the special characters are being
removed. How do I go about preventing that from happening?

Thanks. I'll give that a try.

Sorry about the sig...I'm a physician and to comply with the new 
regulations known as HIPAA, I need to include such a statement when 
sending patient information. Forgot to strip it from my post. In this 
case, better to err on the side of caution ;->

The block I'm trying to put this into is a normal block on the RIGHT 
side. Would this make a difference?

I am not aware of this. 
who is the developer that walked? 
you mean to say that this person 
took the code with him or destroyed

I don't know the guy's name.  He was developing the code on his
own computer and never checked it into CVS.  When he left, he
didn't turn it over to the project.  The ones discussing this
said he was the developer for their new template system.  They
plan on using the Xanthia engine for now as an interim solution.

> Thank you to you both for your thoughtful comments. I have
posted both of them

I read DankStreet's comment on your site and agree with him.
It's not really an either or issue.  Each person is different and
goes with what is appealing to him.  All these projects have
their pros and cons.  One system will not fit everyone's needs.
Hopefully, PostNuke can get back on track in their timeline. If
it didn't run so slow on my server, the security system was
easier to use, and the panel more intuitive, I probably would be
using PostNuke on one of my three sites today.  I think it's well
ahead of its parent, PhpNuke, in many ways but behind its
offspring.  I'm referring to the core not the addons.

DarkStreet hit the nail on the head.  I too would like to see the
different CMS' work together on interfaces so addons could be
easily shared across the different projects. Unfortunately, the
developers have gone off into their own little directions
resulting in addon code having to be rewritten for each
integration into a different CMS.  I thought the whole purpose of
open source and oo was to share and reuse code.  Oh well, maybe
some day we'll get there.

Lists plugin has this feature (http://gplugs.sourceforge.net/). It needs
documentation (I still cannot figure out what is "Msg Archive ID") but
otherwise it provides threaded email archives - all within Geeklog. It uses
Geeklog security framework to provide access to mailing lists. Great piece
of software for newsletters etc. Needs just a bit of polishing.

Hi all!
I was looking for geekbook plugin, but the link seems to be broken.

Is there any other such plugin? I have not found anything. I am asking
because I do not want to invent a weel: I'll probably have time to make such
stuff, 'cause I think, sometimes a mere guestbook is what one needs, when
forum is not a requirement.

Regards,
Giorgi

The gxblock.com site is gone, but most (if not all) files are available
from the <http://gplugs.sf.net/> downloads section which is located at
<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=68255>.

Scroll down a bit - the Geekbook plugin is there.

Thanks for the info. I found lists 0.3 beta which I assume is it.

One more question: Does it accept attachments?

Thanks again. BTW I can't figure out how to reply to the emails. I'm 
using the digest option. In other words can I reply to one item in a 
digest and do some quoting?  Is this group using "lists" or something 
else?

Thanks for the info. I found lists 0.3 beta which I assume is it.

I have some installation questions. Step 3 of INSTALL doc inserted below

Step 3:  Move the public_html and admin directories to their proper 
places.  Move/rename the public_html directory to the <path_html>/lists 
directory.  Move/rename the admin directory to the 
<path_admin_html>/plugins/lists directory.
{ cd <geeklog_dir>/plugins/lists; mv public_html <path_html>/lists; mv 
admin <path_admin_html>/plugins/lists }


I'm not sure what "proper places" are. I'd be inclined to copy the 
contents of lists/public_html into geeklog/public_html except there is 
a index.php in each.

Maybe another part of the problem is that I don't understand what 
<path_html>/lists and <path_admin_html>/plugins/lists mean.

Thank for any help.

Similarly there is a lists/admin but not geeklog/admin. There is a 
geeklog/public_html/admin.

Confused in California!

Geeklog plugin convention generally is as follows:
1) you unpack  a plugin into <geeklog_root>/plugins/ directory
In the newly created plugin directory you'll see a sub directory "admin" and
sub-directory "public_html".
It is not very intuitive, but you have to move AND rename these two
directories.
2) "public_html" is *renamed* to the name of plugin (in your case it will be
called "lists") and moved *under* public_html directory of your
geeklog installation. So your webserver accessible directory will look like
this: /public_html/lists/
3) "admin" dorectory is renamed to the name of plugin (in your case "lists")
and moved under /public_html/admin/plugins/
so you'll have your webserver doc directory:
/public_html/admin/plugins/lists

You obviously do not do anything with geeklog public_html directory and to
geeklog index.php

That's all. When you install a couple of plugins you'll get used to it  :)

  Thanks for the info. I found lists 0.3 beta which I assume is it.

  I have some installation questions. Step 3 of INSTALL doc inserted below

  Step 3: Move the public_html and admin directories to their proper places.
Move/rename the public_html directory to the <path_html>/lists directory.
Move/rename the admin directory to the <path_admin_html>/plugins/lists
directory.
  { cd <geeklog_dir>/plugins/lists; mv public_html <path_html>/lists; mv
admin <path_admin_html>/plugins/lists }


  I'm not sure what "proper places" are. I'd be inclined to copy the
contents of lists/public_html into geeklog/public_html except there is a
index.php in each.

  Maybe another part of the problem is that I don't understand what
<path_html>/lists and <path_admin_html>/plugins/lists mean.

  Thank for any help.

  Similarly there is a lists/admin but not geeklog/admin. There is a
geeklog/public_html/admin.

  Confused in California!

I change the Domain within the same server,  I just move all the files to the new site and that's it.   It works!!

I did change config.php and lib-commong.php path. 

Am I missing something? Do I have to do anything else? 


Thanks Guys!!!

Is the site running under the same URL as before? Then you don't need to
do anything else.

If, however, the URL changed, then you should run this script:

    http://www.geeklog.net/filemgmt/singlefile.php?lid=88

It will adjust the URLs in the "What's Related" blocks.

I've cc'd the geeklog-users mailing list at 
http://lists.geeklog.net/listinfo/geeklog-users so others may benefit

First PGP stands for Pretty Good Privacy which is a program that gives 
applications a way to securely transmit data.  The most popular example 
of this is in email.  PGP has a checked, closed source past that 
involved the US government, lawsuits and all sorts of nastiness.  Since 
then, there is now an open source alternative called GPG which stands 
for GNU Privacy Gaurd.  It is the same program as PGP minus any 
proprietary algorithms.

Now why does Geeklog include a field for PGP?  Well, the original 
author, Jason Whittenburg worked for a security company.  With security 
being their bread-and-butter he baked in this user attribute into 
Geeklog.  The idea is that two Geeklog users could transmit encrypted 
email between one another.  However, in order to decrypt the data you 
need a valid public key.  That being said, if you want to learn more 
about GPG, feel free to spend some time on Google learning about it.

Please note that currently GL does not use GPG internally for any reason.

Most of the bugs are probably due to the instalation, there are some functions that try to call a directory that either doesn't exist, or doesn't reside in the location that I put it. I'm getting those taken care of though.

I did that and it didn't work.    It keeps linking the related block to the
old URL.

I tried the 3 of them. ( Update all, update existing, Empty Block),  But it
keeps linking to the old URL.  (the weird thing is that it was working for
some to the new url and then stop doing it, really really weird).

Another strange thing is that I've got the message that say 610 stories have
been updated.   But then that wasn't true.


Any Idea ?

Hi all!

I have installed Geekary, GeekBook and Chatterblock. Something is going
wrong, possibly because of my errors during configuration.

1) GeekBook enables any registered users to carry out the admin duties.

2) I made the chatterblock unavailable for unregistered users. Now even
registered ones cannot use it. However, when I turn off this option, all is
fine. Also, users with the admin privilegies can see the chatbox.

3) I cannot upload pictures aka geekages:

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in
/.../public_html/geekary/geekage_upload.php on line 271

Warning: getimagesize: Unable to open '/tmp/phpE0rM4q' for reading. in
/.../public_html/geekary/geekage_upload.php on line 271

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in
/.../public_html/geekary/geekage_upload.php on line 371

------------------
In the file system reports there are no problems imdicated.
geekages and thumbs folders have the 777 permissions.

I guess I have to change the settings regarding the temporary folder?

Any hint will be appreciated.

Thanks, not at all intuitive as you say. But not hard to do.

"Seems like a bad idea to rename folders since one may forget then what 
it originally was and where to move it. Maybe not a problem in UNIX 
(don't know the commands), but sure can be in Mac OS X. Seems like 
there should be a folder that is named: 
move.the.contents.to.public_html directory and similarly 
move.contents.to.public_html/admin/plugins directory or some such. Of 
course the directory structure would have been set up differently if 
someone was doing this all over again. Probably wasting my keystrokes 
as too hard to change now.

I may get sort of used to it, but every program has its own conventions 
and one doesn't do it every day. I'm running phpBB and haven't touched 
it in maybe six months. Doubt I'd remember how it's put together. But 
free is free. Thanks to everyone for putting all this together.

I just found out that it seems the scripts worked fine for just a few of
them.

How can I change this manualy ?

Where is this stored in the Data Base ?

  I did search in the geeklog site, but I couldn't find anything. It seems I'm the only one!!

How can I change this manually?

Thanks!!


I have quite 700 stories to update, Isn't that Fun ??  Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Then I have a nother problem, it seems that if  a guy wrote too much, the wath's related can't show it.  per example one user wrote 600 stories, and the what's related block seems to have a problem with that.   It shows this:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/sites/site56/geeklog/system/classes/template.class.php on line 496


How can I fix that?  It doesn't do it with users that didn't wr?te too much.

Is there any Plugin that store every "Story Title"  in a special place of the Database?  

So A user can quickly watch only "the titles" of all the stories?


Thanks!!



Another Question,  Do you suggest to post at first here in the "email list" or in the "Geeklog site"?

How many guys are reading this email list compared to the Geeklog site?

How does the gl_story  table work?


I did a "Select * from gl_story" in mysql and I get this example. 


|     1|     0|     0| <li><a haref="http://www.myoldsite.com.ar/search.php?mode=search&amp:type=stories&amp;author=6">More from "user name"</a></li><li><a haref="http://www.myoldsite.com.ar/search.php?mode=search&amp:type=type=stories&amp;topic="topicname" ">  More from "topic name"</a></li>    | 0 |    1|    0|    0|    plaintext|    1|    6|    3|    3|    2|    2|    2|
3|    2|    2|    2|
| 20030407015244802 | 6| 0| "topic name" | 2002-03-04 01:52:44 | "story Title"    | "Story content"





If I want to visualise this I can realize that every Story is a Row separate in Fields by this symbol " | ". 
Am I right?

But when I put "describe gl_sotries;" in Mysql   i get 24 Fields   and If I count every field by using this symbol " | "  I get some more and in a diferent order. 

Per example when I do "Select * from gl_story" I get  the Story Content at the end, and when I do describe table I get it as a number 8 (in terms of order).

All those 0| 1| 3| etc.  are the story options that were selected when creating the story, per example enable comments on off,  etc.  am I right?



I realize that here is the place where I see the old URL that the Script didn't change. 

Do you know any Mysql command to replace all the old URL name by the new one?
I'm not an expert, I'm just learning the stuff. So I don't know lot of Mysql commands. 


No i did a "Select related from gl_stories" and I can clearly see the place the target place. 

It is crazy the way that the script worked, it sometimes add the new URL instead of updating it. 

So It did this 3 things. 

1) it sometimes update it right
2) it sometimes just add the new url at the beggining.
3) do nothing. 

Unlikely "do nothing" was what it did the most.


Wich one will be the right Mysql comman that I need to replace this?

Update comman?

Can you please give me an exmaple?

I have only 4 guys that were writing storys. 

So I think It should be something like this:

UPDATE gl_stories SET related = "<li><a haref="http://www.mynewsite.com.ar/search.php?mode=search&amp:type=stories&amp;author=6">More from "user name"</a></li><li><a haref="http://www.mynewsite.com.ar/search.php? mode=search&amp:type=type=stories&amp;topic="topicname" ">  More from "topic name"</a></li>" WHERE uid = "user number";


mmm, I think this will be a solution.  And by doing this I will get rid of those duplicated links, etc. 


Another thing that I think this will be usefull is when you change the topic name the related block show the old topic name for the stories that were written under the old topic name instead of looking for that name dynamically. So you can update the old stories to the new topic name by doing it in this way. 

I hope this work, I'm going to Backup the Database before!!! Cya!!!

I now I'm the only one with this problem, but I hope it helps to the guys that change the topic name a little bit, so the  "Related Block"  shows the updated topic name.

: )

I'm happy!!! : )

I've got a small problem when doing UPDATE in Mysql.

The content has some quotation symbol ( " ) that brakes the comand entry.

how can I put some quotations inside a cell using the command Update ??

Thanks!!!

    How does the gl_story  table work?


    I did a "Select * from gl_story" in mysql and I get this example. 


    |     1|    0|    0| <li><a haref="http://www.myoldsite.com.ar/search.php?mode=search&amp:type=stories&amp;author=6">More from "user name"</a></li><li><a haref="http://www.myoldsite.com.ar/search.php?mode=search&amp:type=type=stories&amp;topic="topicname" ">  More from "topic name"</a></li>    | 0 |    1|    0|    0|    plaintext|    1|    6|    3|    3|    2|    2|    2|
    3|    2|    2|    2|
    | 20030407015244802 | 6| 0| "topic name" | 2002-03-04 01:52:44 | "story Title"    | "Story content"





    If I want to visualise this I can realize that every Story is a Row separate in Fields by this symbol " | ". 
    Am I right?

    But when I put "describe gl_sotries;" in Mysql   i get 24 Fields   and If I count every field by using this symbol " | "  I get some more and in a diferent order. 

    Per example when I do "Select * from gl_story" I get  the Story Content at the end, and when I do describe table I get it as a number 8 (in terms of order).

    All those 0| 1| 3| etc.  are the story options that were selected when creating the story, per example enable comments on off,  etc.  am I right?



    I realize that here is the place where I see the old URL that the Script didn't change. 

    Do you know any Mysql command to replace all the old URL name by the new one?
    I'm not an expert, I'm just learning the stuff. So I don't know lot of Mysql commands. 


    No i did a "Select related from gl_stories" and I can clearly see the place the target place. 

    It is crazy the way that the script worked, it sometimes add the new URL instead of updating it. 

    So It did this 3 things. 

    1) it sometimes update it right
    2) it sometimes just add the new url at the beggining.
    3) do nothing. 

    Unlikely "do nothing" was what it did the most.


    Wich one will be the right Mysql comman that I need to replace this?

    Update comman?

    Can you please give me an exmaple?

    I have only 4 guys that were writing storys. 

    So I think It should be something like this:

    UPDATE gl_stories SET related = "<li><a haref="http://www.mynewsite.com.ar/search.php?mode=search&amp:type=stories&amp;author=6">More from "user name"</a></li><li><a haref="http://www.mynewsite.com.ar/search.php? mode=search&amp:type=type=stories&amp;topic="topicname" ">  More from "topic name"</a></li>" WHERE uid = "user number";


    mmm, I think this will be a solution.  And by doing this I will get rid of those duplicated links, etc. 


    Another thing that I think this will be usefull is when you change the topic name the related block show the old topic name for the stories that were written under the old topic name instead of looking for that name dynamically. So you can update the old stories to the new topic name by doing it in this way. 

    I hope this work, I'm going to Backup the Database before!!! Cya!!!

    I now I'm the only one with this problem, but I hope it helps to the guys that change the topic name a little bit, so the  "Related Block"  shows the updated topic name.

    : )

    I'm happy!!! : )

    cya

The gl_links table should have a "date" field. If it doesn't (usually
only when the database was originally created on a pre-1.3 Geeklog) do this:

    ALTER TABLE gl_links ADD date datetime default NULL;

The install script should have added that field during the upgrade from
1.3.6 to 1.3.7, though, if it was missing ...

Trying to at least answer some of the questions ...

As you have noticed, the script to update the content of the What's
Related block may run into timeouts if you have a lot of stories and your
hosting service has set a max. execution time. I have no solution for
this - you would need to rewrite the script to do the update in smaller
portions or something ...

Use the source, Luke ;-) Geeklog's source, that is. You'll find
addslashes() is the solution here.

The gl_stories table has 24 fields (plus some index fields). I'd suggest
you refer to the file sql/mysqltableanddata.php


>Is there any Plugin that store every "Story Title"  in a special place of

What's wrong with SQL?

    SELECT title FROM gl_stories;

There's really no need to store them in an additional table (which you
would need to keep up to date) ...


>What does this mean amp; ?  

That's actually &amp; - the HTML entity to be used for the & sign. When
used in links, the & sign must be written as &amp;

My DB does have the date field for the gl_links, but it was missing for the
gl_linksubmission. Once I added the date field there it worked. Thanks for
pointing me in the right direction Dirk. You've done it again.

Subject: [geeklog-users] Stripping my ampersands?
Message-ID: <3C057626-A41B-11D7-8E09-000393A34F1A@mac.com>

Well, after some work and help from people on this list (thank you), 
I've now worked out how to get rid of those ridiculous Microsoft 
"smart" quotes that appear as question marks when posted as a story. 
I've also dealt with the em and en dash issue. I've substituted the 
appropriate unicode codes (&#x1234) for the offending code. I've also 
modified a little perl script called demoronizer that automates the 
task to some extent.

The issue that I'm having is that when I paste the code into the story 
and hit either preview or save, everything looks great...except that if 
I go to edit again or save after viewing the preview, the question 
marks appear again. In other words, if I save it right away the 
appropriate unicode characters appear, but if I try to edit the story 
later, the unicode punctuation characters disappear and are replaced 
with the question mark indicating that the web browser doesn't know how 
to display the information.

Someone else previously alluded to the fact that they have to work 
around this by saving a separate file, making the appropriate changes 
there and then resubmitting the code into Geeklog. Are my ampersands 
getting stripped and thus the unicode is being deformed? Is there a way 
to fix this problem? I'm concerned that if some of the users of my site 
post a story by pasting from Word or some other Microsoft product that 
supports smart quotes, I'll not be able to edit the text correctly 
since all I'll see is question marks.

Thanks,

Norm

Hi dirk, thanks for answering.

If I do this:    SELECT title FROM gl_stories where uid = "#";

Isn't that exactly what the related block does?  Do you think I will get the
timeouts If that uid has 500 story titles ? (I mean by writting my own php
to do that instead of using the whats related block)

Thanks!!!

ftp won't help here, but if you have access to MySQL (either from the
command line or via phpMyAdmin), you could change the password for your
Admin account to

    5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99

which is the encrypted value for "password".

You should try to figure out why the "forgot password" function doesn't
work. Can you send other emails from Geeklog (e.g. to a user or try
emailing a story).

bye, Dirk

I think I found the trouble - I used the reset password via phpmyadmin:)
to get back into control - but -

Seems anyone can mess up your password by doing the lost password send
thing, because it doesn't send your password, it changes it randomly,
and sends the new random password.  So if you are not checking from your
pop3 email you don't know your pw has been changed...  dan

Yes, this has been discussed before, see here for example:

As stated there, the problem will be addressed with Geeklog 1.3.8.

Hi,

It looks like your hosting service turned PHP's safe mode on while you
were away. From the error messages, it looks like you are running a
gallery script within Geeklog and that is calling an application
(probably to scale images) which it is not allowed to do any more now
that safe mode is on.

So the problem is not with Geeklog but with the gallery (and probably the
gallery's random image block). See if you can deactivate the gallery (and
the "image of the moment" block). The rest of your Geeklog site should
then work again.

I'd suggest contacting your hosting service and asking them for advise.

bye, Dirk

That worked, thanks for the help.

Hi all!

Is there any dating look-up plugin? I might have missed it.
I think it would be a very desirable thing...

Grtz,
Giorgi

How about an email to article plugin?  I'd like to be able to cc email to a
given address with an associated topic and have it automatically posted in
that topic.  Kind of a geeklog knowledge management tool. ;-)
