hi
This is a great program..

Ummm.. I updated my list this evening and ftp'd it to the server.

For some reason it is not showing the actual list.
It shows the search box (which doesnt work), and an empty filters menu..

Any ideas?

Thanks

Tracy

That is Willspo's template, see this thread:

viewtopic.php?t=287

Does the template display correctly on your local machine?

Ahhhh. Willspo's, thats the one...
Anyway... it used to display fine on both local and remote sides, until i added a load more movies and put it online.

I am in the middle of delting everything server side and loading a fresh copy, incase you get a forbidden page...

Thanks

It will slow down quite a bit for large lists (loading and usage). How many movies are we talking about?

The template is not exactly designed for online usage. If you forgive me the shameless plug: If your webspace has php support, try my template (viewtopic.php?t=813), it looks quite similar to Willspo's because I like his as well.

yay.. a php version... with page splits too...
well done.
Ok Im going to give this one a try. Thanks for the shameless plug

If I remove 'movieRating' and 'movieCountry' from settings.php, will that mess anything up?

Also the details page.. does that have the plot on it? if not can I ad it?

Thanks again

Code: Select all

/****************** change the default sort settings
/**
 * settings:
 * $_SESSION['orderListBy'] and $_SESSION['orderSearchListBy']
 * possible values are:
 * 	'movieNumber'
 * 	'movieOriginalTitle'
 * 	'movieDirector'
 * 	'movieCountry'
 * 	'movieCategory'
 * 	'movieYear'
 * 	'movieLength'
 * 	'movieRating'
 * $_SESSION['orderListDirection'] and $_SESSION['orderSearchListDirection']
 * possible values are (ascending or descending):
 * 	'asc'
 *	'desc'
 */

You mean movieRating and movieCountry in the above section? That's just a comment in the code. Changing it won't do anything...

hmm, plots. I don't have those in my database, so I just missed the field. I will add it. Will be there in the next version.

Hi again...
Actually, I think the plot is the comments field... So forget that one...
Everything is up and running fine, though there is a slight annoyance. For some reason 2 films (beautiful mind, art of war) have multiple categories

Ive tried deleting them in AMC but it keeps bringing them in.
When the files have been updated, what should be transferred to the server??

Thanks again

Can't check your site out, cause it brings errors atm. The only file you have to update on the server is the xml save of AMC.

Tracy · Post by **Tracy** » 2003-08-12 10:54:20

Me again

ok.. its all uploaded.. and working well (maybe missing images though)
When I make changes to AMC and save it as movies.xml I upload over the old one, but it never changes. I even tried deleting the remote side xml and then uploading it... but same thing... no changes..

Thanks for your help

Close all browser windows. The xml is only parsed once per session and as long as your browser stays open, the session continues...

Do you have no images? They need to have the same filename and relative path on the webserver as on your local machine.

Yay...
It's working great now... thanks a bunch
