Glad to help!

Ok. For awhile I couldn't get images to load - fixed that by adding the testimonials folder to the /images folder. whew!

However; the author's url is not "clickable". Is that the link you are working on.

PS Have I mentioned how awesome this mod is???? :hug:

addendum to last post by me! Images are linked to author's url. DOY! What more could I ask????

Forgive me???? :wacko:

Just a note on images.

if someone does a testimonial for one of your products, you can use your own product image and in the author's URL field you can add a link to your product info page (yoursite.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=??_??&products_id=?)

I'm revising the code for both tpl_testimonials_manager_default.php and tpl_testimonials_manager_all_testimonials_default.php so that an image will be displayed as a thumnail.

I'm also revising the code to take care of the "link" problem you described.

I like where this is headed. Looks good. Personally for me I would like to see a couple things from this. Call it my wish list. Not sure how popular it would be with others but I know that for what I am looking for this is what I would want.

1. The ability to insert the product name and it display either bolded and/or h2/h3 and that be the text link to the product instead of the image.

2. The user have the ability to submit their image and that image contain the tag necessary for those of us that use the lightbox effect.

3. When the user submits an image then either gd or imagemagick automatically resize/resample any images submitted larger than desired or set in admin configuration as limits.

4. Adjustable settings in admin for image position of either left/center/right.

I know all this would involve quite a bit of code. After all, I did say it was a wish list!

Cheers!

#4 can be accomplished by changing the following declaration in either
testimonials_manager_all_testimonials.css or testimonials_manager.css

Code:

---

.testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;/* change to left, right or center */
}

---

#3 some of the images (original size 500 x 500) on the site I indicated have been resized to the limits set in the admin configuration (80 x 80)

#2 those using lightbox will have to work out how to adjust the current code to work with that mod. Check the support forum and/or the authors of the mod.

#1 the testimonial title could serve this purpose.

Here's the fix.

Just unzip the file - rename the YOUR_TEMPLATE folder to match the name of the custom template you are using on your site upload the entire includes folder to your server.

Clyde;
I grabbed the fix and posted it. Works just fine too I might add. Many thanks! One thing I forgot to mention than has been happening is that if I edit a testimonial from the admin and then update it loses the picture. The image still exists on the server but it removes the image information from the db and I have to edit it again and reupload the pic. Is this just me? I haven't seen anyone else refer to having this problem.

Cheers!
