Module for 1.5

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , — Eike @ March 8, 2008 7:10 pm
08/03/08 I started a new page to make room for new comments ;-) 

I fixed (with help from Maurice in the comments) the SQL for the display of section/category names, this should work now. I added more ordering options, and an option to disable pluging for the module content. Alas it is not possible to disable plugins selectively, it's all or nothing. 09/03/08 Edited to add: Plugins are disabled by default, if you want to run plugins on the module content you  have to enable them in the  module parameters.

This has been tested on J! 1.5.1 J!1.5.2 running under WAMPP.

20/03/08 Added support for the accessible Beez template.  At the moment you need to manually set the template in the module parameters. Edited to add: Adam Wallner found a bug in the modules HTML that has been there for some time, I recommend an upgrade to the fixed version, or simply overwrite helperhtml.php with the fixed file from the archive.

04/04/08 Mike Bronner fixed an sql error that prevented the author names from showing, and I took Steves suggestion from comment 27 for the readmore-Link.

    3. Just wanted to say thank you for this extension. Does exactly what i needed to do. This is pretty much an essential extension for any Joomla designer.

      Thanks again and good luck for future developments.

    5. Hi again Eike,

      I realized that the problem I mentioned earlier (as a comment somewhere in another post) is connected to the issue of SEF + .htaccess being used at the same time. Unfortunately I can’t afford to turn the .htaccess off. I’ve just updated the module to the 1.3.1 version, which I believe is the last, but still no love.

      It is something you acknowledged as a bug over two years ago on March 24, 2009, (comment #11105) so I’m wondering if you will be putting any focus on it in the future…

      BTW I really appreciate your module and have used it in several sites. Way to go!

      I’ll be comming back to check on updates. Cheers!

    6. Hej thanks for this great plugin. Would it be possible to imnplement again those fetures that was in the mod_contentitem, for example the ability to have the image removed from the introtext, and without creating external template-whil this is a great feature-set the order fo the title, text, image etc. Thanks a lot!

      Comment by LosBellos — April 14, 2011 @ April 14, 2011 10:57 am

    7. Yes of course. Go to the module manager, check the checkbox in front of the place here module and click “copy” in the upper right admin toolbar. This will create an unpublished instance of the module that can be configured independently.

      Comment by Eike — March 27, 2011 @ March 27, 2011 3:21 pm

    8. Hi,
      is it possible to use more instances of it on one page?

    11. When will mod_placehere be compatible with Joomla 1.6? It is really a great module.

      Comment by Arno — January 28, 2011 @ January 28, 2011 10:57 am

    12. Thank you very much, that was very usefull!

      Comment by Sebastien — January 6, 2011 @ January 6, 2011 5:53 am

    13. i am regularly bumping all across the net just about all of the night hence I possess a tendency to read a good deal, which is not generally a good factor as a great number of the sites I visit are constructed of unproductive waste copied from different sites a thousand times, but I’ll hand it to ya this blog is frankly enjoyable and even holds some authentic substance, therefore many thanks for splitting the trend of simply just replicating other individual’s websites :)

      Comment by cityville — January 5, 2011 @ January 5, 2011 11:43 am

    14. Thank you for making this module. It really help me a lot.

      Question: I created a lot of mod_place modules. Every day I add new articles on my site and put the article ID’s manual in the right mod_place modules. Unfortunatly this takes a lot of time. Is it possible to choose (checkboxes) the right modules when creating an article – for example below the wysiwyg editor or on a parameters tab?

      Comment by Eric — December 15, 2010 @ December 15, 2010 7:25 pm

    15. Good luck in the further development of your page! Thanks for this wonderful module.
      Many greetings

    17. Hi, thanks a million for this module. One Question. is it possible to use more instances of it on one page. Wat I want is: 4 Divs, each shows items of a different category?

    23. Hi,

      Thank you for a wonderful module.

      However, I could not download the file. I got an error message saying:”the requested file doesn’t exist – Details: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found”.

      Would you please fix this problem?

      Regards,

      Nam

      Comment by Nam — September 2, 2010 @ September 2, 2010 10:14 am

    24. In frontpage:
      - If I tick “Run Plugins”: Readmore links is error (only link to root folder).
      - So I tick “Do not run Plugins”: That’s ok with Readmore links, but component JComments can not run.
      I’m stuck here. Can anyone help me, please?

    26. Just checking back to see if anyone has discovered a way to unhide the edit icon? Again, it will only display if one of the three other icons (PDF, mail & print) are enabled.

    28. Hey Eike, this is a great module period! Even if you are just starting out and don’t have great skills using Joomla, this will help building forms that would otherwise be very hard to make. Kudos to the creators!

      Comment by Steve — July 20, 2010 @ July 20, 2010 3:33 pm

    29. Awesome mod. I’ve set up modules with query based content generation on a central “data” page on which I use stacked filters. Enables me to route items of select categories to different module positions, but then filter all of those modules by several criteria (ajax passing of form data, and usage of those params in sql queries). I was hoping to use your module nested inside of MetaMod with my SQL queries, which would allow me to inject a comma seperated string of article ID’s into your module for display; straight echo’s out of php are fine but formatting is ouch. Sadly, I used k2’s convenient extra fields feature, and the articles don’t have ID’s in the Joomla article system. I’m wondering if perhaps you might have a rapid workaround to suggest? Many thanks ~dja

    30. Were using version 1.3.1 and we’re having a problem with the edit icon. When users are logged in on the front end and they try to edit the article they don’t see the edit icon unless one of the other three icons are active (print, email, pdf) on the backend. If we hide these three icons, the edit icon never appears. Please assist!

    32. Hi Eike (zum dritten Mal).
      I’ve just realised that your editor is abandonning text encased in gt. and lt. tags. My point again:
      Line 32 of the helperhtml.php file should be echoing a closing td and not a closing div.

    33. Hi Eike
      My previous post was sabotaged somehow, so I’ll try again without cutting and pasting:

      There’s a small bug in the ‘helperhtml.php’ file. Line 32 should be echoing a closing not a in my humble opinion.

      Comment by John Elkington — June 15, 2010 @ June 15, 2010 3:33 pm

    34. Hi Eike
      I think there is a small bug in the helperhtml.php file:
      ==============================
      echo ”;
      echo ”;
      for($i=0;$i<$leading;$i++) {
      if($rows[$i]) {
      echo '’;
      echo ” . $rows[$i] . ”;
      echo ”;
      ===============================
      I think the final should be . Everything works fine, but the validator won’t like it.
      Immerhin, vielen Dank fuer eine super Arbeit – und schoene Ferien.

    35. I’ve used a previous version of mod_placehere and will use the latest version in my latest Joomla project. Many thanks for this great module! I wish the Joomla project would make this module part of core, that is, of course, if you agree. (^^)
