phpLD 3.2.0 Template changes

**Boby** · 04-19-2007

Ok guys, as you know I am usually providing the template changes you have to apply to your templates. This thread is covering **only** the changes from phpLD 3.1.0 to 3.2.0!!

French Translation - Spanish Translation - Swedish Translation

If you've missed v3.1.0 and are upgrading from phpLD 3.0.6, wich is a no no

, please review phpLD 3.06 to 3.10 template changes first.

I strongly suggest you to update all the PHP files, at least the files ducumented in the changelog.txt file that comes with your phpLD copy as they have many changes. We really don't need to go over the same problem again like on all other updates that people did not updated the core phpLD files and have problems. Don't tell me you were not warned before

First, make sure you rename unauthorised.php ==> unauthorized.php as well it's template file from /templates/YOUR-TPL/unauthorised.tpl ==> /templates/YOUR-TPL/unauthorized.tpl

Update your .htaccess file to support article rewriting, top/latest links, etc.

Copy the new template files, and make your own changes to HTML code if you need: article.tpl, articlelink.tpl, article_search.tpl.

top_bar.tpl (or whereever you want to add the link to latest articles page)
Add following code:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

2) Also, you can now use friendly URLs for latest/top links, and articles. Point the links to this if you wish:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

How to change this can be found here (!!You need access to the Supporters Forum!!)

main.tpl
1) Fix your ghost URL's by applying an older fix from me:
Fix Ghost URLs
(was added now to the default release, it's working good)

2) Look for:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

Right after add articles search results:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

3) Look for the part of code where you display links, usually simmilar to this:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

Right after add:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

submit.tpl
1)Look for the input field where users submit meta keywords:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

Right after add the validation tag:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

2) Look for the textarea where users submit meta description to their sites and it's validation tag:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

Replace with:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

login.tpl
Remove following two lines, as it could cause problems when admins change min/max values for username and password:

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

Code:

Content visible to registered users only.

Don't worry, username and password still needs to match perfectly against the database info to allow someone to login.

I hope I have covered all changes

please let me know if not and I will update this thread.

Enjoy

Boby

lol found it a bit odd that the 2 temps that came with v3.2 weren't updated for v3.2 hehehe

sorry couldn't help it

**Boby** · 04-21-2007

LoL, as far as I can remember I've updated also the tho additional templates in the package.

That was helpful... Is there anyway of having a list of files that were actually changed for the following. If we had mods done, it's hard to know where which files we should look into:

- [CHANGE] /admin/* (most of them)
- [CHANGE] /templates/Core/admin/* (most of them)
