Testimonial Manager Support Thread (for ZC v1.5.x)

[Nick1973]

your most likely thinking you need to add something to languages

// Testimonial manager meta tags
define('META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_ALL_TESTIMONIALS', 'SOME WORDS  '); 
define('META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER', 'SOME WORDS  ');

I did to includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/meta_tags.php

Or none, depending on what common wording you want to have for each post... I use my site name.

Thanks Dave, I didn't really have time to go through it earlier. Should have guessed that really. Long day lol

Hi, I like this plugin. And I installed it. Everything works excepting adding Testimonial.
When I click" add a testimonial", it redirects to "/index.php?main_page=testimonials_add" page. But this page is blank. I checked my logs file. It reads:
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=' in /home8/simonhai/public_html/includes/functions/testimonials.php on line 14

Below is the testimonial file

  function zen_db_insert_id() {
    global $db;
    return = $db->Insert_ID();
  }
//EOF

Yeah, would remove the = from the line:

return = $db->Insert_ID();

So that it reads:

 return $db->Insert_ID();

The file /includes/functions/testimonials.php was changed in the most recent version of this plugin. Previous versions did not have this problem.

It works. Thank you so much!

That was a little mistake from me trying to update it to take out all of the mysql_xx functions, I have resubmitted an updated package to correct it

No good deed goes unpunished.

Oops. And I had a part in that too. Sorry. lankeeyankee's update has been published and is available for download

That was one line that never made sense to me!

In the $_POST line 39

$testimonials_id = zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['testimonials_id']);

I could not find it in the template form anywhere!

Then in line 93

 $testimonials_id = zen_db_insert_id();

I can understand why we would get it from the database, just not sure why now! The function is not used anywhere else!

I've commented it out and did away with the function without any issues for some years now..

Just wondering why its in the POSTing side of the form. The Function exists in Admin and works there... Also thinking maybe there was some mixing of the admin code with the catalog side!

Hey, I still need your help. In all testimonials page, CSS does not work. Check below pic:



I added below codes to my template stylesheet.css

.testimonial {
color: #000;
padding: 0 5px 5px 5px;
text-align:left;
}
.testimonial p {
margin: 0; padding: 5px 0;
}
.testimonial span {
float:right;
}
.testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}
