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

smndvy:

Has the META Error been corrected?

Installed the Plug-in and all works great except after doing the Meta changes detailed in the instructions the page title displays
META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TEXT

Other than that its a great mod :smile:

I am having the same issue... Any fix?

Discovered the problem...

In the LANGUAGES meta_tags.php, the CONSTANTS read:

META_TAG_TITLE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_ALL_TESTIMONIALS
META_TAG_TITLE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER

and in the MODULE file, they read:

META_TAG_TITLE**_PAGE**_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_ALL_TESTIMONIALS
META_TAG_TITLE**_PAGE**_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER

So just edit the language file so that the CONSTANTS match those in the module file.

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

Ran into a problem upgrading this module. After uploading the files and clicking an admin link, I get:
WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again.

The log file shows:
[11-Jun-2013 16:47:04] PHP Fatal error: 1136:Column count doesn't match value count at row 1 :: INSERT INTO zen_testimonials_manager VALUES (NULL, 1, 'Great', '', 'Clyde Designs', '', 'This is just a test submission to show you how it looks, great, eh?', '[email protected]', NULL, NULL, NULL, 0, 1, now(), NULL) in /home/ccu/public_html/cart/includes/classes/db/mysql/query_factory.php on line 120

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

Hi
I have just upgraded Testimonial manager to Version 1.5.4 and noticed that when I submit a testimonial a "Submit my Testimonial" button appears on the "Your testimonial has been successfully submitted" page - which is sure to confuse people.

This may be something I have caused with amendments but just wanted to check that it doesn't do this out of the box and couldn't see anything mentioned on this thread

Great Mod
Cheers
Brinley

Hi,
I have the same issue with page title of testimonial manager.
I tried to look into metatags.php in my langauges folder. There is no such line " META_TAG_TITLE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_ALL_TESTIMONIALS
META_TAG_TITLE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER"

But the testimonial manager seems to be working fine.
IS there something wrong with the way i have installed testimonial manager ?
Please let me know
Thanks

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

I hope this is a simple question. I want to put all my testimonial images in a newly made folder called : "testimonials" which is in the folder named "images". /public_html/horse-logos.com/images/testimonials

So in the: Admin Options (admin -> configuration -> testimonial manager) > Testimonial Image Directory; I put the following: /images/testimonials/ and I also tried: images/testimonials/ but my testimonial images are not showing up. What should I be putting for the Testimonial Image Directory to point to the folder, testimonials? Does it have to be: /public_html/horse-logos.com/images/testimonials or something else?

Here is my testimonial page: All Testimonials : Custom Horse Logos, clip art, equine graphics, Professional horse art - http://www.horse-logos.com/index.php?main_page=display_all_testimonials

Thank you for any help on this.

Thank you for any help on this.

To put your testimonial images in a subdirectory of their own, you would need to enter the directory name that is relative to your images directory. Testimonials defaults to the images directory and anything entered into the configuration area will be relative to that. So if you want all newly entered images to show up in a testimonials subdirectory off of images, you would simply enter testimonials/ as the new directory.

Then any newly entered photos will default to the testimonials subdirectory off of images. Changing this directory will not update any existing testimonials image locations. So if you have existing images associated with a testimonial entry, you would need to either update the entry with a "new" photo, or modify your database in mySQLadmin/run a SQL command to update them.

Other factors may cause your images not to "appear" such as the height and width of the testimonials image(s) may be too small. I am not sure what the effect of not having a height or width identified would have, but it may cause the image not to appear.

Hope that helps.

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

Thank you for this help. I think what I was doing wrong was I was not putting in the right info for the directory location. I first tried, /testimonials/ when I should have tried testimonials/ with out that first slash mark.

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

Hi Everyone...I have installed the TM on a site and we were hoping to use it as a project gallery but I cannot remove the words "Testimonial By" with it crashing the entire site. Can the testimonials_manager_defines.php not be edited at all?

Thanks.

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

I am trying to change the area that read: Testimonial By to read Project Submitted By and when i tried to change ANYTHING in that particular file I lose my entire store. I end up with a white page...but it's only on that file. I managed to change everything else except that one spot.

Thanks...

You're possibly removing a ' or ;
Can you post specific details of the file you are trying to edit and post the before and after code. You should also have an error code generated in your log or cache folder.

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

Hello

Just installed this module today and all appears to be working. I have manually added 5 testimonials I received via email, is there any way of limiting how many testimonials are displayed? As my list of testimonials is now longer than the rest of my content on some pages, and leaves a big white space at the bottom of the page ( I am using the testimonials in the right hand column). Could I for example limit the number displayed to 3 testimonials, that randomly change each time the page is loaded.

Thanks... ok let me try this again because you're not giving us the information we need to help you. We cannot see what you did to you have to help us.. When you say you are making changes, you need to tell us exactly what changes you are trying to make and to what file. Telling us you made a change to file but not telling us what that change is isn't exactly going to help us help you. Show us the code changes you made.

Secondly blank pages means you've got an error of some kind which means that an error log record was probably generated.. tell us what the error log says.

If you cannot provide this information we're going to be spending our time guessing at what your issue might be. if you can give us some specifics we can get down to the heart of your issue. I'm not going to spend time guessing at what you did.. help us help you.. give the specifics of what you have done and we can help.

There's a setting for that in admin.

I have now found the testimonial settings in the admin panel, thanks. If others need it they are under Admin > Configuration > Testimonials Manager.

Okay...I am trying to change the testimonials_manager_defines.php in the extra definitions folder. This is what it looks like:

When I change that (and leave the quotes in tact) the entire site goes to a blank white page. If I reload the original file, the site is restored. There is something about this file that is not letting my customize the text. I hope this clarifies the issue I'm having a bit better. Thanks for your help.
