Legal Docs Not Displayed

Posted: Mon Apr 13, 2009 2:15 pm

op=lgl_contact did the trick, thanks. Other links have to be changed as well, eg., op=terms to op=lgl_terms and so on.

Thanks for the heads up. Wink

Okay so after reading this message I decided to go toy with mine and when I add a document it doesnt display at all - but rather the default text becomes the text for the new mod and the module op?=test becomes the link to the default legal text.

Very strange indeed.

If you use FCKEditor then when you add the document, use the "Source" function to edit the op= links correctly prior to saving. Should be op=lgl_test

There has to be the ability to change the default in the php script somewhere so we don't have to edit each document.

Cheers

I don't understand why you are not seeing out-of-the-box the lgl_ prefixes. I cannot see these anywhere in the RN distribution and I programmed the legal module version that is provided in the distro. Are you absolutely certain that you have uploaded and overwritten any prior versions of the legal module on this site because those $op codes are NOT from RN.

I'll use one of my test domains to remove all of the legal files, module, etc. and re-up the distro files again and see what happens.

Hmmm, just noticed that I upgraded all of my domains from RN 2.20.01 which didn't have a "Legal" module, so RN 2.3.01 has to be the original files. Dunno, will still remove them and re-up.

Ok, here is a line directly from the rn_core.sql ..

Code:

<a href="modules.php?name=Legal&amp;op=terms">terms of use</a>

That is exactly how it reads when you hover over the actual link in the docs.

Shouldn't that read op=lgl_terms ?

I dunno, now I'm at a loss on this one. op=terms AND op=lgl_terms both are working. Who knows .....

Cheers

For me only op=terms works, op=lgl_terms does not.

So long as it works .. Smile

My "Legal" is working 100%, but I did find out that if the "Feedback" module is inactive, the comments and contact webmaster don't work. All in a day's work. Smile

All this may have had something to do with the ctype extension not enabled in PHP. Ever since I enabled it, it all works just fine now.

Yes sir. The thought there is why re-invent the wheel. The core Feedback module is already well secured and if you are going to allow feedback on legal documents, why not allow for other types of feedback? You should be able to hide the module from the modules block if you don't want it to show up, but I am certain you already know that!

Yup, already knew that .. Smile

Wasn't rocket science to figger out that "comments" = "Feedback" = "Contact" = "Feedback" and so on .. Smile
