Hi,

I've been a bit disconnected from the forum lately, and I lost track of errors with plugins. I want to fix that situation so I'm asking for your help here.

Just write here the problem you've encountered with the plugins, only of plugins on the market. I'm sorry, if a plugin is not in the market it's not made by us and you should contact the author directly. Some of the plugins in the market are not made by the Osclass team, but by contributors, I will try to communicate them your problems.

You must answer this questions:
  • What were you trying to do?
  • What did you click on or do last?
  • What happened / what did you see?
  • What browser are you using?
  • What version of OSClass?
  • What hosting provider? (And if you know, what version of PHP do they use?)
  • Bug reports that show screenshots for #3 are incredibly useful, as we can see exactly what you saw.


Please, only for version 3.2 and higher of Osclass.

No comments here like "yeah this happens to me too", just answer the questions above, any other comment not following that template will be deleted. Let's keep this clear.

facebook connect has a fix, it needed a few things to themes for it to work. ie the logout...
i'll post it later, perhaps inside the admin area a  code sample code be added

all the attributes, have database removal issues. we have just found it easier to recommend the custom attributes. but that could use an upgrade as well- it works(ish), just old and limited.





also the plugins that do work, but require a little more know how, could use some admin tips

also, another fix thats available is for the premium plugin. as it is now, it works, but it is not "seen" instantly. user must dig around to find it. this fix we have involves core modifications, but it allows for the option to be available at the time of posting. USER FRIENDLY.

so what i propose, is something what you do in bender... as a bad example; the category "description", it's there IF you use the helper in the theme. If you have the options available in the core, but an i/o when the plugin is activated in the admin settings.


would you like the links to all of these fixes? github is just not working for me on this computer. I know you explained it, and I'm fairly decent at following directions, but it's just not compatible.

this thread was read forty-two thousand times. :o Im guessing every one is using the third party plugin, because this plugin doesn't work...

I'm not sure if going by how many times a post was read, but as I have done how-do-you-fix-this searches i would assume that thread comes up quite often lol

am I covering everything or are there any more PLUGIN issues? I know the core and theme will be a whole other can of worms.

lets start with something simple..the social plugin? is there anyplace that says you should add header information, or the appID's
now we get access errors

as I said the plugins work, they just need more information on how to use them.
example:
Code: [Select]
// facebook add your application ID, replace **** in script src url
        $content .= '<li class="facebook"><div id="fb-root"></div><script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=****"></script><fb:like href="" send="false" layout="button_count" show_faces="false" font=""></fb:like></li>' ;


even the simplest of Facebook best practices
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/howtos/maximizing-distribution-media-content

if the user is going to get social, don't let them get a way with half-assing it. ETA- Im working this weekend -I don't like to work weekends >:(

I have problem with the Watchlist Plugin. I installed it on Osclass 3.3.2 and call it on the item-sidebar.php. If I click on the Add to Watchlist, the text changes to View Watchlist after which if I click on View Watchlist, it brings error 400 Bad Request.

Though I have asked this in a topic: http://forums.osclass.org/plugins-20/watchlist-plugin-showing-error-400/msg88407/#msg88407

but solution provided there only lands me back to content of homepage instead of taking to watchlist.php.

Though am still testing this on localhost, some helps would be appreciated.

the watch list is really hard to configure. and it is user specific. you can try mine---please back yours up!!!!

Hi there,
I'm facing problem to get payment pluggin to work for premium listing.  Are they the same thing?  If so, would appreciate if you can share the link you mentioned here.

I'm sure it will save us many hair pulling moment.

Cheers

Payment plugin works, actually one of the few that does. What issue are you having? Did you check the forums?

I installed your version of watchlist, it generated this error:
fatal error: call to undefined function bootsnap_classic_add_boddy_class() in line 29 of watchlist.php

Can you help me to solve this?

@haryour what theme are you using?

there looks like a misspelled word
function bootsnap_classic_add_boddy_class()

should be "body"
