1. By default pages' owner can remove his pages in anytime he wants. If you want to completely disable the delete feature for members then you may remove Delete button related to Pages module from "sys_objects_actions" database table. Also it can be done via custom modification in PHP code. Feel free to contact me via PM to discuss it.

2. By default Page's snippet has Title, Description and some other info which require full available width. Take a look at Pages' home page on our demo site

 Hello

Hi, where can I delete some category in the Categories list? Thanks.

Sure, you may do it via standard Dolphin's categories manager in admin panel -> Settings -> Categories Settings. You neen to select Pages module on module selector in "All Categories" block.

Looks like something was mixed up. I would need to take a look to be able to give you some answer. 

OK, I understand that you are too busy to look at the site directly; so perhaps you can answer some questions.

 

1.  When going to the Pages modules, Page Builder, it shows two narrow columns, Column 2 and Column 3.  When one tries to change the width of the columns, the column headings change to Column 1 and Column 2.  Why? When you move away from the Page Builder to another section of the Pages Admin and come back to the Pages Builder, the column widths revert back to narrow with the headings Column 1 and Column 2.  Why?

2  If I am forced to completely uninstall the module and start over, I need to know where the Pages data is stored.

2.a. Where are the member added blocks stored; which table(s) because I will need to back those up and import them back so the members don't lose their blocks.. 

2.b Where is the data for the Page Builder stored; which table(s), so I can import back in the position and column location of each block on the Pages Builder.

2.b Where is the data for the Page Builder stored; which table(s), so I can import back in the position and column location of each block on the Pages Builder.

1. It appears because blocks with different width appeared in one column. Such situation may appear on any Page Builder based page. Each column should have blocks with the same size only.

2. If the module will be uninstalled all module's data will be lost. So, you need to save all data from DB tables which names started with 'aqb_pages_'. The pages themselves are stored in 'aqb_pages_main' table but you cannot save only one table, the other tables should be saved too.

2.a. User created blocks are stored in 'aqb_pages_members_blocks' table.

2.b. Blocks' structure is stored in 'aqb_pages_profiles_info' table.

2.c. Also additional info for default Dolphin's blocks customized by users is stored in 'aqb_pages_standard_blocks' table.

No Anton, the NAME of the column changes, Must be a language barrier here because I explained this in a PM and now in this post. Also, eleven days ago you promised to look at the issue but I guess since then you have changed your mind.  I cannot keep waiting.

 

I guess the only way is to uninstall the module which is a big MINUS for your modules, they tend to be impossible to upgrade and your answer is always, delete the module; in this case that means all members lose their Pages; in this case it is only a few but if I had 5000 members to lose their Pages it would mean the end of my site.

We tested the module on clean Dolphin 7.3 and it's working fine. If something was mixed up during the upgrade we can do nothing in this case because we didn't do that upgrade. We don't know which upgrade script was used, what exactly was changed and so on. I think, the upgrade or any other work should be finished by a person who started it, especially if he was paid for this work.

In case of this situation If the previous version of Dolphin with its database are available I can do the upgrade of the module myself, but I cannot fix the issue appeared during the work of the other expert.

I don't think that it's "a big MINUS for our modules" if they stop working after somebody's changes in them. I think, the product should work out of the box and continue working if nobody touch its code or database. Our products do this.

Hello GG and AntonLV,

 

Ok, i am going to assume that due to the upgrade and modules that need upgrade as well, a lot of you developers are under a lot of stress and so forth. Your both r great and have helped a lot of members in the community. The issue regarding the page module, i can wait and hold off for a while until it's resolved. I just prefer obviously not to loose the current pages/data. So if it's cool with both of you, would it be safe to say that the problem can be resolved within a week or so ? I am just trying to spray some WD-40 up in here. I can't believe what i'm about to say, but sometimes problems can be solved better when the air is clearer. <------ I'm reading this myself and i must be under some hard core s**t. Wink So like i said, i'm cool on waiting if you both can come up with a solution ?   Let's keep the peace no ? Cool

Everyday is a new beginning.

Everything is OK! :) As I already wrote I'm ready to do the update of the Pages module if the original data is available.

Dolphin requires that module should have unique URI to ensure that all URLs will be unique too. Therefore it's recommended to use vendor related prefixes. In case if you are modifying the module to your own needs you may change the URI in any way you need. But you need to do full replacement of aqb_pages with your own URI in all PHP and MySQL files. It's needed because URI is frequently used as module's name in different parts of Dolphin script.

Hello Anton,

 

Is there a way to make comments appear instantly on the other user page without refreshing the whole site?

 

In Facebook when commenting on something the comment instantly displays on others page without refreshing.

 

Thanks

Unfortunately, it's not possible in the current version of Dolphin. Such feature requires some advanced automatic content updates tracker which will work in the background and display newly appeared content without page reloading.

@AntonLV: I made a custom image to replace the default "no-image-thumb.png" when no photos have been uploaded. However, I prefer this to be shown regardless if any photos have been uploaded.

 

Can you please direct me to which line of code in the module php I need to alter for the pages it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

You need to edit module/aqb/pages/classes/AqbPagesTemplate.php file and find unit function in it. Then you need to comment out (remove) the following code

$sImage = '';
if ($aData['thumb']) {
  $a = array ('ID' => $aData['author_id'], 'Avatar' => $aData['thumb']);
  $aImage = BxDolService::call('photos', 'get_image', array($a, 'browse'), 'Search');
  $sImage = $aImage['no_image'] ? '' : $aImage['file'];
}

Then you need to find the follofing line

'thumb_url' => $sImage ? $sImage : $this->getImageUrl('no-image-thumb.png'),

and replace it with this one

'thumb_url' => $this->getImageUrl('no-image-thumb.png'),

Save the changes and test.

@AntonLV - need little assistance in modifying the URL for pages

 

right now it doesn't pertain to the site so when sharing the link it isn't what I'd call user friendly. Example...

 

https://mobstrik.com/m/aqb_pages/view/-SCVG-SCAVENGE

 

I'd like this to ideally eliminate the "aqb_pages" and if possible the "view" so it's more similar to the friendly URL of profiles. If a space needs to be made for the "aqb_pages" portion say we change that to "p"

 

so ideal would be...

much thanks for the help and great mods as always.

It's needed because URI is frequently used as module's name in different parts of Dolphin script. 

So, you may change 'aqb_pages' to 'view' if you don't have any other module with such URI. Also I don't recommend you to use 'p' as URI because it may cause some troubles in case when module's URI is used as module's name in the code.

When you take a final decision about the URI, you need look through all files in module/aqb/pages/ folder and do the replacement.

I am loving the pages module set. It's offering a huge amount of flexibility and member participation which is great.

 

but... (there always seems to be one of those)

 

...there's one glaring feature missing that would be a huge benefit.

 

EMBED VIDEO

 

In my opinion this is a must for any module where members can upload media. The way I see it some site administrators may consider only allowing embedding of media. Reason is simple, good video content takes up huge storage and it can quickly use up a smaller server capacity. Better to harness the strengths of media hosting sites like YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, etc.

 

I've got a few mods from another developers with this feature and it's a must have.

 

What do you think?

The module uses standard Dolphin's Video Uploader which unfortunately allows to upload videos from PC only. However we have Extended Video Uploader module, which allows to extend the default uploader adding the possibility to embed YouTube videos.
