Testimonial Manager Support Thread

[daneh]

Hi Clyde,
I tried to search and read ALL the posts in this thread, but I fell asleep at the comp and bashed my head on the keyboard on the way down, so I figured I would just ask instead....

In the admin/configuration/testimonials manager, when I try to increase the number of testimonials that show up in the sidebox to anything above 5, the sidebox "loses" its left and right borders. Well, not all of it's borders, but the upper part disappears.

I have quite a bit of text on my main page, and want the testimonials to flow down the page to eliminate the "dead space" on the right.

Is it a CSS thing, or an image thing?

The site is http://mistkits.com , but I have set the # to display back to 5 so it doesn't look too funky to the customers.

You make some awesome mods and are very graciuos helping everyone. Thanks.

I'll be guessing here, but from the way you are describing what is happening, I'd have to say that the content of the sidebox is breaking the height of the sideboxContent graphic.

in other words - the graphic has a height of 750px and if your content exceeds that height then you would get what you describe.

The solution would be to edit the graphic for the sideboxContent and increase the height to 1200px or so.

That was pretty much as I thought. I wasn't sure though.
Thanks for the reply.

Worked like a charm!!!

I'm looking into that right now.

It will require some recoding of that particular section and may take a while to complete.

If you'd like some help on doing the "bulk" sql statement, you can always PM me. I'd be glad to help.

Here's the sql statement.

Just unzip the file open the bonheddwrl.sql file

run this sql patch using the Zen-Cart Sql Patches tool
(admin -> tools -> install sql patches)

copy-and-paste the code into the query field and press 'Send' instead.

Sorry to be a nuisance again. I added the SQL statement you created,and itworked a charm.

I then followed the SQL format to add the last batch of Testimonials, but for some reason I get an error message. I must have messed up somwhere, please view attachment...

Thank you so much. You have been of great assistance, and it now works perfectly for our needs. This is a great add-on, everyone should add it!

Is there a link where I can make a contribution, because I would love to see this add-on developed even further!
