I turned off the sidebox for the rss and still had the same problems submitting things.

You might want to check the support thread for the lite_red template to see if this issue has occurred before with the template.

I don't think it's the template. It's something I've done. I may need to redo the whole thing piece by piece and figure out what I boogered up! Thanks for the help tho :)

I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but it seems that since the Zen Cart upgrade of 1.3.9g, we are getting a lot of SPAM in the testimonials. That is, we're seeing a lot of testimonials with some obvious spam message about visiting some website, etc.

Anyone else experiencing this as well?

I have yet to upgrade to the latest version of the Testimonial Module, so if this has been addressed in the latest release, I would like to know that as well. Just curious if anyone else has noticed a rise in submitted testimonial SPAM lately.

i've noticed a possible bug in the manager, when i go to view an individual post, the TITLE tag appears as code

I just upgraded to the latest version and still the same thing happens:

this is what shows up: <title>META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGERI will tell all my friends</title>

instead it should just be

<title>I will tell all my friends</title>

any ideas on a fix on this one?

Thanks

John

I'm assuming that you've add this to your includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/meta_tags.php

Just replace the defines in that file with the following:

PHP Code:

---

    define('META_TAG_TITLE', $page_check->fields['testimonials_title']);
    define('META_TAG_DESCRIPTION', zen_trunc_string($page_check->fields['testimonials_html_text'],TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_DESCRIPTION_LENGTH));
    define('META_TAG_KEYWORDS', $page_check->fields['testimonials_title']);

Hi Clyde

thanks for the reply that solved it. i guess i had some OLD code i had this

Code:

---

    define('META_TAG_TITLE', META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER . $page_check->fields['testimonials_title']);
    define('META_TAG_DESCRIPTION', META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER . zen_trunc_string($page_check->fields['testimonials_html_text'],TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_DESCRIPTION_LENGTH));
    define('META_TAG_KEYWORDS', META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER . $page_check->fields['testimonials_title']);

Hi,

Has anybody worked out how to make this mod into a scrolling one.

I have been trying for ages this morning but with no results. I've got the JScroller sidebox package but am unsure about what I need to change to make the testimonial side box into a scrolling one.

Would anybody like to have a go?

Kindest Regards,

Brett Rogers

now that would be awesome! great idea, anyone out there able to make it work?

The testimonial manager sidebox is not included in the JScroller sidebox package.

revising/changing the testimonial manager sidebox so that it will scroll would require re-writing the code for the sidebox and is not currently on my list of things to be done for the testimonial manager add-on.

(maybe in a future release)

i've just recently installed the testimonials manager onto my site, but in my zencart admin/tools i can't find the testimonials manager so i can edit what's there now... any ideas on what i've done wrong?

(i'm fairly new at zencart, and installing modules.. i had someone build my site for me but need to do some tweaks on my own)
