CodingJungle Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 File Name: Promenu Enhancements File Submitter: CodingJungle File Submitted: 10 Jun 2012 File Category: Look and Feel Supported Versions: IP.Board 3.2.x, IP.Board 3.3.x, IP.Board 3.4.x This product will be outdated when promenu basic 3 series is released, and will not be maintained for it. This package will remain compatible and working with any of the listed versions of promenu 2.x. If you purchased this package, and did not get transfered to promenu plus, and rely on these features contact robert or myself. Promenu Enhancments, is a modification pack for Promenu (the IP.Board application). This modification will give the following new features: Ability to add IP.Content blocks to be used as mega menu items (in primary and header menu), as any type of menu (parent or child) in the footer menu. Ability to add EasyPages Blocks to be used as mega menu items (in primary and header menu), as any type of menu (parent or child) in the footer menu. Forum's feature, for header and primary menu (gives a complete listing in Promenu menu format of multi-tiered levels for all your forums/categories/sub-categories/sub-forums, follwing the permission view of each forum/category). This modification can be used with the latest version of IP.content, or the latest version of EasyPages, the forum feature requires neither one to be installed (but this modification will have reduced functionality as it will not parse IP.Content or EasyPages Blocks without their respected application being installed). here to download this file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 getting error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodingJungle Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 no they do not have to be disabled, you just have to have these settings turned on in "enable/disable": enable "forums" feature: yes enable forums feature for primary/header menu: both yes or where ever you want it to display. place forums feature at front of primary/header menu: yes or no (depending where you want it to show up in the order, at the front of all the other items, or after all the other items). then refresh you promenu cache, and it should build the required cache for this feature to work correctly.

Dmacleo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 did all that then got the above error, sorry I thought i edited in time. disabled forums feature and error stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodingJungle Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 yeah it is what i was afraid. there is a problem with how promenu currently has its templates laid out, mainly the plugin for its javascript being called in the template instead of the head where it belongs. I'll have to create a template for the forum's and add it in the next release of the enhancements to get around this issue, thought i had, but i guess my regex skills aren't up to par atm. give me an hour or so, I'll release an update.

Dmacleo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 ok, thank you. I appreciate the quick reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodingJungle Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 okay updated, it now includes its own template, you wont have to upload the entire thing, just install the hook file "promenu_ipc_blocks.xml" again, let me know if this solves your problem.

Dmacleo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 ok will try it in a bit and let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 only real problem is it seems to have an incorrect furl for me. if you click the name you choose for menu it points to myforums.tld/forums/index/ I am using just /forums (htaccess) OR /forums/index.php since it does not show in the promenu setting I cannot edit where it points either. the menus themselves don't dive quite deep enough either. say I have a category called members only, then another one called admins and mods, then a third called admins only the third is not visible. they present and slide away correctly, positioning seems to work well.

Dmacleo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 pro menu header menus will no longer drop down after installing. checking no for all settings on this re-enables them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 what is uninstall procedure? I reuploaded all promenu files, removed the promenu_ipc_blocks.xml hook, reimported the promenu ProMenu.Header.Display.Tool.xml (from promenu download) and recached all. edit: after doing this promenu upgrader ran and it all seems ok.

CodingJungle Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 sorry i didn't notice these, again i didn't get notified of a topic being posted in i follow (either in the notification area or in my email). I'll test it out some more, but so far i've been unable to reproduce any of these issues on my production site or dev board. the only thing i can think of, is uninstall the promenu header hook, and install the one that is included in the mod (as it might not have updated correctly). As there was a needed change in the header hook to get the forum's feature in the header to work correctly. as for the FURL, that is controlled by the furl template in promenu, whatever it is set up to use in that file, the forum's feature will use edit: think i might have found the problem for where its not "showing' a forum., i will work up a fix tomorrow and push it out.

CodingJungle Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 I am currently redoing how it cache's and the over all template structures. Hopefully this will alleviate future problems with the forum feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I will check it out :) odd on the furl issue as promenu works, will have to look at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodingJungle Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 I will check it out :smile: odd on the furl issue as promenu works, will have to look at that. sorry, for the primary menu the one that default says "forums", i use this furltemplate from promenu: 'app=forums' => array( 'app' => 'forums', 'allowRedirect' => 0, 'out' => array( '#app=forums(&|$)#i', 'index/$1' ), 'in' => array( 'regex' => '#^/index/(/|$|?)#i', 'matches' => array( array( 'app', 'forums' ) ) ) ), and for the submenus, i use this one from forums furltemplate: 'showforum' => array( 'app' => 'forums', 'allowRedirect' => 1, 'out' => array( '#showforum=(.+?)(&|$)#i', 'forum/$1-#{__title__}/$2' ), 'in' => array( 'regex' => '#^/forum/(d+?)-#i', 'matches' => array( array( 'showforum', '$1' ) ) ) ), i realized i had said i used the one in promenu, which was just half truth :) if you are familiar with how the furl works, maybe you can track down the problem with the furl after i get the new version out.

Dmacleo Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I forget where the directory where the forrum furl is kept now LOL thought it was forums/admin/applications/forums/sources/classes but not seeing it there. edit: found it, was off by one LOL this is mine from forums/admin/applications/forums/extensions'showforum' => array( 'app' => 'forums', 'allowRedirect' => 1, 'out' => array( '#showforum=(.+?)(&|$)#i', 'forum/$1-#{__title__}/$2' ), 'in' => array( 'regex' => '#^/forum/(d+?)-#i', 'matches' => array( array( 'showforum', '$1' ) ) ) ), that seems to match up. will look at other when you post the update.

CodingJungle Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 been update, let me know how that works, if this doesn't solve your problems, maybe we can setup a time, i can come in and take a look, maybe it is a conflict with something else installed.

Dmacleo Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 right in the middle of a domain change, server account move, and possibly actual server move too so it may be few days (2 maybe) before I can really try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodingJungle Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 I just have not had a chance to test this one out yet, sorry :sad: no worries, no other bug's reported so far on it, and no one is really buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinkler Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Hi, Just trying this out now. Although I have imported both hooks, only one is ever showing, it's as if they keep over writing each other? (Looking on the installed hooks page, there is only one with your name). Is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodingJungle Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 yes there will only be one with my name, the other one is the "ProMenu: Header Navigation Display Tool" by provisionist LLC, i didn't change the "ownership" of that hook to myself, as i only made a slight modification to it, to allow the "forum's" feature to work on the header menu.
