Another Module in Need of Help Reply to topic


Phoenix,
I know how much you love a challenge ...... and that you've previously shown an interest in a quotes module ....

The old Random Quotes module is something that we still use although it is clearly in need of updating to conform to the latest DF standards. How about giving it the Phoenix touch?

I actually had produced my own a very long time ago (years), but kept it private - it's actually here nukebiz.com/My_Quotes.html

I'm not sure about that attached zip version but safecracker (Kyle Stubbins) did actually produce his own version - not sure where that one went. Are you using his version?

Either way, it's a pretty simple affair, so a touch up is easily managed.

Now that I think about it, I can see that a module like that would work really well on your site - you would have some great classics.

I did see your old version although noted that it didn't appear to have an add quotes option and also couldn't find anyway to download it!

We have been using the Safecracker/Stubbins version for a long time and have quite an impressive database - you'll see they rotate through our front page and we used to mix them in with our banner ads too. I believe that it was actually designed for the last version of CpgNuke and the developer no longer supports it.

I think the zip version is the safecracker one isn't it?

Mine was never released and the additions were only through the admin interface.

Since you were using Kyle's version it will be easy to amend. My working weekend is done for another week, so I'll check it out as well as the zip file :).

Cheers mate - working weekends though - that sucks!

Yeah, weekends suck, but I do a week's work each weekend and have the rest of the week off Very Happy

As expected, changes with Kyle's work are trivial - I'll add the update to downloads later today. That will keep another potentially lost module in the fold.

Seeing the quotes included in the install, I do now recall Kyle asking if I minded him using several that I had collected.

Oh well that's not too bad then - I'll look forward to this module re-appearing. We've certainly had a number of users asking about it.

Available Here

Aside from minor touch-ups, I added a search.inc file so that the module will be included in site searches.

Looks good and seems to be working fine. One minor point is that the view=all page could do with a link back to the add/edit page.

Thanks!

I've added the link and also done quite a few compliance fixes, so I'll release 9.1.2 later tonite.
