Testimonial Manager Support Thread

[Danielle]

OK, all fixed :) There was an extra file that had the wrong code in it, includes/extra_datafiles/testimonials_manager.php. The code in that file is already included in includes/extra_datafiles/testimonials_manager_filenames.php. I deleted the testimonials_manager.php file and everything is working now.

The problem is that the "Read More" link is this:
http://www.paperbliss.ca/index.php?m...onials_manager.php&testimonials_id=3

And it should be this:
http://www.paperbliss.ca/index.php?m...timonials_id=3

For some reason, ".php" is getting added to the end of "testimonials_manager".

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks!

Evidently the issue has been solved. I just checked the site and was able to view individual testimonials

yup, danielle (who created my site — bless her soul) had mercy on me and fixed it... thanks to both of you! clyde, you've got patience.

LAST question... this was brought to my attention when a client attempted to add a testimonial.



How do i get rid of the text from "this content..... " all the way to "from the pulldown"?

as it says

How are you editing the file?

[paperbliss]

this may have been the wrong thing to do, but here's what i did first:

of course, i wasn't reading the instructions correctly, so i was going into the actual files in my ftp where indicated and edited the php files and reuploaded them. when that didnt work, i slowed down and actually read the instructions, replaced the files i had changed with the original, and went into the define pages editor and edited it there...

i delete the two lines i don't want included in the blurb, hit save, and get the 501 error.

You have 2 choices when editing these files

1) you can edit them locally on your computer and then upload/FTP the edited file to your server.

2) you can use the define pages editor in the Zen Cart admin.
If you choose this option, you need to make sure that file on your server is writable (chmod the file to 777 before you begin the edit)
Once you've edited and saved the file you will need to reset the file permission(s) to 644.
