A few questions about the upgrades

skidpics · May 6th, 2008, 10:57 PM

I apologize for the few questions, but I could not find any instructions, but I did look for them, unless I am just missing them

. Changed buttons on showphoto to be an admin option to display text/buttons

Where is this option? I cannot find it.

. CAPTCHA verification for anonymous/guest posts

I cannot see it - I did upload all the files, but did I miss something?

. RSS feeds to include subcategories

How do I access or show the RSS feed?

. Improved "tag photo" feature

What exactly was improved? You are talking about the photo 'hot links", right?

. "Zoom lens" integration (can be turned off and on in admin)

NICE!

The captcha switch is in the registration options in admin panel and the other options for zoom and to switch between text links or icons on showphoto are both in show photo options in admin.

I do not know what Michael means by improved tag photo features. Most likely he streamlined a feature and made it more efficient.

Just did as stated, reuploaded - no captcha coding showing - it is enabled in the admin registration options and shows when registering.

It is indeed enabled in registration.. I only see the one entry that states: Use CAPTCHA images when verifying unregistered users?
Requires GD2 support!. And it is working during registration..

I am using ImageMagick - if that makes a difference?

Your site is not coming up.. time out error.

skidpics · May 7th, 2008, 07:10 PM

OKay, I checked the link out you sent me and I see it is working for you.

Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

TEAMBAJAMARINE · May 7th, 2008, 09:10 PM

I am also running 6.2 and do not see anywhere - "Zoom lens" integration (can be turned off and on in admin) Or RSS Feed info.

Chuck S · May 7th, 2008, 09:52 PM

I think Michael forgot the code in the non vb template try this template

Chuck S · May 7th, 2008, 09:53 PM

I beleive zoomlens is only seen on photos that do not have large image links or lightbox but let me ask Michael.

TEAMBAJAMARINE · May 7th, 2008, 10:05 PM

Thanks Chuck for the heads up. Before I do anything I will wait for your next post. If you need to see my Photo Gallery for anything, here is the link...

Chuck S · May 7th, 2008, 10:15 PM

Make sure zoom lens is turned on also in showphoto options.

TEAMBAJAMARINE · May 7th, 2008, 10:25 PM

Now I am confused. Do you want me to still replace the template file you added above?

Chuck S · May 7th, 2008, 10:41 PM

Thats another issue team. Thats the profile issue if your using a non vb enhanced version.

So back to the original question, why do I not have ZOOM LENS in Admin? I was waiting for you to return with a response after asking Michael. I aslo do not have RSS feeds anywhere in admin showing up. I do have CAPTCHA though. These are my issues after upgrading to 6.2.

Seems like I should wait next time there is an update ;-) until the kinks are fixed.

Got it to work - now just a cosmetic adjustment in position and I should be ready to go. One last question, can the number of required 'images' be adjusted instead of the default 5?

Chuck S · May 8th, 2008, 06:11 AM

required images please example what you mean by that? If your talking about the profile it displays as is if your trying to alter something you would need to modify code.

jdougher · May 8th, 2008, 06:11 AM

Is this software tested before release? Seems constantly to be sent out with bugs.

Chuck S · May 8th, 2008, 06:15 AM

I beleive every software has bugs in some way thats why there are updates and revisions in every software.

For the record I beleive there are only 2 issues found and template related which should have been fixed already.

I am meaning the captcha verification code, which is default 5 - can it be changed to something like 8 or 10 if needed?
