Hi,
Glad to hear that, and no problems about the name! ;)Quote:

Hi Conor,
Sorry to bother you. For the first time in my life I am playing with pinterest. Hmmm, yes, I love social media and flaky interfaces. It appears that the URI rewriting somehow breaks the pinterest pinit functionality. Now, I know that this really isn't your problem in some ways but wondered if you had any quick thoughts about that. Other than the obvious about Pinterest that is!
Pinterest operates in a javascript created popup. Some of the communication seems to happen just fine. The popup is populated fine with details from the users account. But when it comes to actually 'pinning' the page things just do not happen. Which is just odd. With the mod turned off things work fine.
I will obviously talk to Pinterest about it but they are not seeming to have magnificent developer support.
As I say, not expecting a big answer. Just if you see something that I have missed or have a Conor moment of inspiration then let me know.
Hi,
I've no idea what this pinterest is (never even seen/used Facebook myself nevermind other networks!) but your issue simply sounds like a path on the server is being blocked by the rewrite rule so you need to add an exclusion to the rule.Quote:

I am on your wavelength about facebook, twitter, pinterest.......
Thanks for the time.

Hi,
I think they are probably quite useful/interesting but I have my own ideas about things and in a way they are probably partial competitors to my future software (aarck/aawe ;) ) so I don't want to have any bias by seeing how they "do things".Quote:

Anyway, as I said, I'd need to look at your site to actually see what's being blocked and how to fix that, but as a suggestion, at a guess, you could try adding:
To your rewrite rule.Code:RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/pinterest/ [NC]
If that doesn't work then the info in the docs really should be enough if you want to try this yourself. It's quite easy to get Ceon URI Mapping working with anything, I've been careful about that!
All the best..

Well it isn't a direct file block because there are no files on the users server.
They load into a iframe. Which to the user appears just to be a button. That iframe creates the popup. The only things that are passed to the iframe when it is created by javascript are the url, the image url and the description of the pin and a couple of configuration settings.
After four days of playing with it on that site, it now works. Not sure what I did to be honest. It didn't work with URI rewriting on. I made no changes to the files. Turned URI rewriting off and it worked. Turned it back on and it still worked. At the moment am busy enough to be in 'if it is not broken do not fix it' rather than 'hmmm that is interesting' mode.
Best of luck with the future software. I hope that you are drinking champagne when you float it on the stockmarket in a few years :-)
Hi,
Hmm, I certainly have no answers for that one! Glad it's working either way! :)Quote:

Anyhoo.. a bit off topic! - Glad you're sorted, that's the main thing.
Back to preparing 4.0.8 for release later today hopefully, have a good day yourself!
All the best..

Hey, Conor, hope you are feeling good today!
Got an oddity that I've never seen before with manufacturers. The site has cars in the manufacturers list such as mg, mercury, mazda and many others. The reason why I mentioned the one's that start with M is that these are showing 404 errors.
I'm upgrading the version and went into the database to make sure there were obvious conflicts and just don't see any.
What do you think the problem could be?
Hi,
Hmm, trying to get these module releases out, the years go on and on.. :|Quote:

Hope you're well yourself!
