Testimonial Manager Support Thread

[minotaur1066]

First got to tell we love the Testimonial Manager- Great Job!

We are using Zen Cart 1.3.8a, Testimonial Manager 1.5.0 (just downloaded today), and Apple Zen template. Other add-ons which are all up-to-date include Image Handler2, Admin Settings, Admin Profiles, Monthly Sales Reports, Sales Reports with Graphs, Sales Reports, Google Analytics, and shortly CAPTCHA and the CAPTCHA Testimonial 1.5 fix.

After a clean re-install, I have two issues which still plague me and a couple Zen Cart admin display bugs which are irksome but acceptable.

The site is www.mustangseats.com/cart/index.php

The testimonials look fine on the main page. (lower right hand side)

However the issues arise when you click to view the testimonial.

Issue #1: When the testimonial is displayed the testimonials width is to wide and disrupts the template. I cannot find in any of the stylesheets where I can change the width of the testimonials and the only entry in the forum was from a couple years ago from a person from asia who had other issues.

Issue #2: Page title when viewing the testimonials- META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIAL_MANGER<testimonial title> Not exactly sure what caused this. Not sure how to fix it.

The curiosities on the Testimonial Manager under Admin-->Tools are:
Issue#1: when clicking on Add Testimonial. The *Required is displayed twice next to the Author's Name, Author's E-Mail, and Testimonial Title fields- since this is the first time I have seen this add-on, I am not sure if this is intentional or not.
Issue#2: In the Admin Settings add-on, Permissions, Testimonial Manager is listed twice and both need to be marked in order for any of the other admins on Mustang's site.
Like I said these issues do not impact the functionality of the tool, they are just curiosities and unexpected.

However on the width issue and page title issue any help would be appreciated.

Resolved Issue #2: Page title when viewing the testimonials- META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIAL_MANGER<testimonial title> Not exactly sure what caused this. Not sure how to fix it.

It was the code I entered in the meta_tags.php file. Removed

the
//TESTIMONIALS:
case 'testimonials_manager_all_testimonials':.... code

Still need help figuring out the width issue

Hi

I have modified your testimonials package to become a guestbook, as can be seen here http://www.breezy.biz/index.php?main...l_testimonials

I notice Capcha is on its way and just wondered how long it will be, I get about 10 entries a day that are trying to persuade me I need ############, that or a bigger cucumber, neother of which I am overly concerned about at this point in my life.

lol.

Have you checked the Apple Zen support thread for similar issues?

In the Admin Settings add-on, Permissions, Testimonial Manager is listed twice and both need to be marked in order for any of the other admins on Mustang's site.

Check the admin profiles support thread on this issue.

when clicking on Add Testimonial. The *Required is displayed twice next to the Author's Name, Author's E-Mail, and Testimonial Title fields- since this is the first time I have seen this add-on, I am not sure if this is intentional or not.

The *Required should only display once after each of these entries.
Try this fix and see if it helps.

Just unzip the the file and upload the entire admin folder to your server.

Yes- I did not find anything so I posted a question. Jade , just like yourself, is very good about helping those who use the add-ons which one has developed. I will be sure to post the solution on this thread as well- with the popularity of both Apple Zen and Testimonial Manager, I am sure I will not be the only one to encounter this issue.

On my to do list...

I appreciate the help but alas after uploading the admin folder, I still have double *required.. Like I said this is not as important as resolving the template displacement when viewing the testimonials. I do appreciate your help with it though.

open the following css files:

display_all_testimonials.css

testimonials_manager.css

replace the following line of code:

#testimonialDefault{margin:0 5px;padding:8px;font-size:1.2em;text-align:left;}

with this

#testimonialDefault{margin:0 5px;padding:8px;font-size:1.2em;text-align:left;width:76.8%;}
