General support topic for Aeva Media (Latest release: July 28, 2010)

[Nao 尚]

Heh, you and I thrive on building the code and enjoying the journey, not the neverending slog afterwards.

Most devs don't, really... It's nothing new Who likes writing docs etc.?

You may find the one thread interesting in Chit Chat about whether SMF needs to be more idiot-proofed or not...

Oh, the agony...

Nao,

I wish to give you a hearty thanks for your efforts with Aeva. It is a wonderful piece of software and it is working extremely well on my site. I am grateful for your efforts.

Many, many years ago I programmed in C, back when all we had was UNIX, CPM, a fledgling OS called MS-DOS, the Altair computer and even more archaic equipment ( disc drives the size of a Mini tire )  that I cannot remember. I gave up programming due to the demands made by others and the lack of understanding of the mental process and love of the effort.

Two weeks ago this old man, took a headlong dive into the web world. Because of you and others on this forum, I now have a fully functional web site. I know that I have a great learning curve ahead of me and I look forward to it.

Thank you Nao for your efforts. 

Best Regards,

Lou

Cheers, Lou, great to hear!

I'm really enjoying using this, because it has what I especially need: a moderation system where all submitted photos are unapproved until a moderator has approved them.

But, it looks like there is a way around this. The user can still use the bbcode for the item on the public board, for example [smg id=4] will make the picture show up for all.

Is there any way to fix this? 

I have some users I don't want to moderate too hard who are prone to posting inappropriate pictures, so I need a strict moderation system that doesn't allow them to do it until it's approved in the gallery. I am glad that there's bbcode, as I've turned off the 'img' tag already, but since it doesn't appear to work with the approval system?

Sorry to trouble! Thank you for your work!

[shin111]

Ah, I just read the sticky, so questions like this are being answered but on the other board? 

I will go and see how it is over there if they are being answered there or if that is that. Sorry to trouble.

[Nao 尚]

I tend to read here (except for long posts), but will only answer over there yes.

I'll look into this bug though. I value security etc etc.

What should i do?

your webserver uses 30 sec limit to execute script. Change it to smth like 60 seconds (it's common value) in php.ini if i'm not mistaken.

Sorry if this has been posted here. How do you add your Youtube playlist to the aeva ?

Ah, well, the more things change, the more they stay the same!

Thank you Nao for your efforts. 

You're welcome!

running aeva 1.1b

I have noted when i upload pics/vids that it often posts the incorrect "posting date". i did some search on here and found that this is the exif date? I turned off the exif date in the media center settings... but it still displays an older date?

If posted today, should it not post todays date? Can i fix or possible to just remove the date/time display from showing. the attached was posted today to website but displays a date from 6 months ago.

Looks like its really just posting the date the pic/vid was created. i rather it post the date it was posted to the website or just have ability to remove the date? How would i do please. Thanks respectfully.

Thanks.
John

Anyone know how to correct the Aeva button?


and thank you NAO for this fine piece of code

Anyone know how to correct the Aeva button?


and thank you NAO for this fine piece of code

Look in /Themes/yourtheme/index.template.php file and change the tag for the "Media" button to whatever it is for the rest of the buttons. Example, the tags for the default is <td></td> and for your theme it's <li></li>. Just take a look at the rest of your buttons and you should see it. Also might have to add <span></span> as well. Hope that helps.

here's where you should look...

Code Select Expand

<td valign="top" class="maintab_', $current_action == 'media' ? 'active_back' : 'back', '">
               <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=media">', isset($txt['aeva_gallery']) ? $txt['aeva_gallery'] : 'Media', $aeva_unseen ? '</a> <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=media;sa=unseen">[<b>' . $aeva_unseen . '</b>]' : '', '</a>
            </td>', $current_action == 'media' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>

Hello All,

I just installed this mod today and was unable to embed url.

Here is the error message:

You haven't specified a file to upload. Or maybe you tried to upload a file too large for the server to handle?

Please help!

[interzis]

Make sure you have set the permissions correctly for mgal_data. As I remember, should be 755.

[madman71]

Thanks MRT,

I think i do need the span tag, but not sure where.

Can anyone assist me?
this is what i have:

Code Select Expand

if (allowedTo('aeva_access'))
echo ($current_action == 'media' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '', '
<li valign="top" class="maintab_', $current_action == 'media' ? 'active_back' : 'back', '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=media">', isset($txt['aeva_gallery']) ? $txt['aeva_gallery'] : 'Media', $aeva_unseen ? '</a> <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=media;sa=unseen">[<b>' . $aeva_unseen . '</b>]' : '', '</a>
<li>', $current_action == 'media' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</li>' : '';

agonz010,

most mods only install in english. (I suspect that this one has a few extra languages, especially french, lol)

However, if your forum is not running in one of the languages specifically supported during install of the mod, then you will have to create your own language files for the mod. (do note that UTF-8 version of a language is different form the normal version)

Kindred, i want to do the spanish language for the mod, its to dificult to do??? how can i do that?

[Kindred]

copy the strings from modifications.english.php into the modifications.YOURLANGUAGE.php and then translate them.
