File Name: (SOS31) Recent Blog Entries Ticker
File Submitter: Adriano Faria
File Submitted: 11 Feb 2011

File Category: IP.Blog Plugins

Just like happens in IPS Marketplace, this hook will show a recent blog entries ticker in board index and IP.Downloads Portal (IP.Downloads 2.3.X required).

Settings:

  • How many blog entries to show
  • Interval
  • Groups allowed to see the ticker
  • Place where ticker will be shown: Board Index only, IP.Downloads Portal (IP.Downloads required) only or both places.

Note:

  • The ticker script used in this hook was taken from the IPS community.


Compatibility:

  • IP.Board 3.1.4+
  • IP.Blog 2.3.X
  • IP.Downloads 2.3.X (optional)

I can't view attachments in this forum.

I have upload it, see URL:

Hello,

i've exactly the same problem: news overlap on each over

Same problem here also. If more than one blog entry to display is selected, they overlap all at once instead of rotating.

I think that we miss a javascript/ajax code, but I'm not sure.

The javascript and CSS scripts are included in template that is created by the hook and it's the same used here on IPS; just a copy.

Press Ctrl+F5... that can solve this issue.

This problem doesn't happen in default skin. I can only imagine that is a problem in your custom skins.

I am using the default skin.

Unfortutely I am experiencing the same problem using the default skin.

Which browser ? I only use Mozilla Firefox; didn't test it in other browers.

I can't reprodute it in my live 3.1.4 board: http://forum.sosinvision.com.br/

Anyway, take a look in your browser (if you use Firefox, install Firebug); probably the JavaScript tools isn't being initialized.

EDIT: Tested on Safari 5.0.2 and IE7; no problem here.

Hi,

I've tested on Safari, Firefox and Chrome (on my Mac) and issue appears on three browser.

OK.

I have use the Firebug, but I see the javascript but I can't find the problem.

On mistera's board, that's the problem is that the JS isn't being initialized:

%7Boption%7D

Weird, 'cause I use the same script on my board and there's no problem... Will take a look.

My bad! There was an error in a setting name, which was causing the error in JS script.

Fixed in 1.0.1.

cool, thanks. You have upgrade my hook or i need to update myself ?

  • Author

Your board is updated.

Good job. That fixed it for me. Thanks.

Fantastic. Thank you Adriano.

Is it possible to change the text:

Blog: Recent Blog Entries

Also is it possible to choose which blogs to export from. I only want my company blog to feed news through.

That would be perfect.

The template uses:

<strong>Blog: {$this->lang->words['recently_added_entries']}</strong>


You can add a new language string in your Admin CP and change the template or you can edit recently_added_entries entry... but it is used in Blog as well.

About the specific blog, see:

This also will change the hook in sidebar.

Thanks for your fast and precise reply, I will check it out. :smile:

Hello again Adriano, I followed the steps above and have made the changes sucessfully.

Now I have the blog feed showing only my company blogs and with my own description.

The next thing I would like to do is show this news not just on Board Index but also on forum view, topic view etc. As most visitors arrive at a topic rather then forum home page. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Not without change the hook. Actually, it would be a new hook. Feel free to PM me for a custom job... I can do something custom for a small donation...

Hello Adriano,

Our members are enjoying this mod. Thank you for making it!

Are there plans to upgrade it to 3.2?
