Testimonial Manager Support Thread

[Seamstobesew]

In todays world of spam, is it possible to keep the "email" off the results page, once an approval of the testimonial has been made? I have testimonial manager set so that non-registered users can add a testimonial, but they won't be happy to see their email addresses prominently displayed. I'd like to keep it in admin on the edit page, but not show it on the live page result side.

I found a way around it, but because I have to explain this to the owner, I'd rather just save her the step of removing the email in the admin edit page. (just using email@ on admin edit page removes email address from live site) but she may not always remember to change that email and she may want to have a copy of the email addresses people supply.

I'm well versed enough that I could remove this from the page in templates you tell me to remove, but I think it would be better if you add it as an option when one is setting there preferences for this addon. Even going so far as to allowing the admin person to display the items they want displayed.

By the way.. this is an amazing addon. One of the easiest installs.. and worked perfectly first time out of the gate. I added a testimonial with no problems. I would definitely rank it among one of the best addons for zencart.

One thing I did notice, it said there were no overwritten files, but it does want to overwrite a file in admin/includes/functions/html_output.php and possibly you could add that to the install file so people know to copy or back it up first before they overwrite it.

Sorry.. ignore, added this message so I could receive notification in my email. :/ No way to edit this when forgotten on forum.

By default NO e-mail address is is shown on either the single testimonial or all testimonial display pages.

Thanks, That file will be removed at soon as I upload an update to the mod.

I must have overlooked the removal of the file when I did the zip package for the mod.

Hi Clyde
I am trying to enter new testimonial, but when I try to upload a picture it dose not let me,
I don’t get any error, it is just not let me finish update until I remove the link of the picture I am trying to add
Also is it possible for me to create a new category in my /images/testimonial, so I can put my entire testimonial picture there?
Thank you

Hi,

I downloaded your TM and can't find a layout box for it in Admin? I noticed another guy had the same problem, but I couldn't find the response for it.

Steps taken,

1. Uploaded files and changed file name to match my template
2. Uploaded sequel patch via admin cut & paste
3. Able to see TM in Configuration
4. Able to see TM in Tools

But I can't see it in Sidebox Layout Controller.

Any ideas?

as a double check make sure you've renamed the YOUR_TEMPLATE folder to match the name of your custom template. Here's a list:


includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE
includes/languages/english/html_includes/YOUR_TEMPLATE
includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE
