Thanks Matt, it's a great man cave big_smile with a wife and kids, I need somewhere to escape to big_smile

Thanks Ben, that was a quick fix smile

Brilliant, thanks for nailing it down smile

#30 Re: Backlight Support » Bug - Contact Page » 2017-04-22 22:54:58

Maybe as I have mine as a directory rather than .php

Terry

Thanks Rod, still a lot to do but at least it's just design and it will be easy to implement smile

#32 Re: Backlight Support » Bug - Contact Page » 2017-04-22 22:25:21

Yeah a theatre still with it set to below the text.

Hmmm, not sure what I can do to stop it inserting the 'page' (contact) into the url as I have no control over any of the contact form.

Oh, I've found loads of issues with the styling not showing up on the actual page - you can see it if you look at an album direct (publisher - albums - view). It helps if you clear the template cache and your cache in the browser.

I appreciate that this won't be fixed on this version but just incase it gets carried across to the new version.

On my contact page I have an album to show a map. http://www.terryliveseyphotography.co.uk/contact/

The image is located:

http://www.terryliveseyphotography.co.uk/galleries/contact-page/photos/TerryLiveseyPhotographyLocation.jpg

Once you fill the form and submit, the images turns to a big black box with a question mark and the image url changes to:

So, as I've used TTG from the first version I had planned on upgrading over the Christmas period but couldn't bring myself to do that just yet as there were still a couple of bits I couldn't do but I did install a test platform to experiment with a few modifications and with (a lot) of help from people on this forum I have got to the point where I can now put it live - also the old site hadn't been updated in ages as I didn't see the point as the new site was on it's way. Also I need to implement this version before the next release is put out there big_smile

Now I must say, now that the pain of switching over has been done; I really love the new implementation, it's lovely to upload images and change little things.

There are still a lot of new images to upload and layouts to change, but at least i'm at a point which makes that easy. Also a couple of little tweaks but these will just have to wait.

Thanks guys for making this system big_smile

#35 Re: Backlight Support » .htaccess redirect not working » 2017-04-22 02:25:40

Terry

Just did that with the same result. hmm

The other lines which are in sub directories work fine but looking at Matt and Bens bits in there it looks like they are watching what happens at the root.  I'm sure there will be a way to format it but not found it, maybe I need to format the to address differently.

Thanks for your help though smile

#36 Re: Backlight Support » .htaccess redirect not working » 2017-04-22 00:25:33

Terry

Yeah that doesn't work either. I'm sure it's because there is other code controlling redirects and they are conflicting.

.htaccess line 

Redirect /galleries.php /commercial/

Result in the browser

http://www.terryliveseyphotography.co.uk/commercial/?mod_rewrite=on&page=galleries.php

hmmmm

#37 Re: Backlight Support » .htaccess redirect not working » 2017-04-21 22:42:15

Terry

Yeah not quite that straight forward hmm ah well. Thanks for responding.

#38 Re: Backlight Support » .htaccess redirect not working » 2017-04-21 22:17:36

Terry

Thanks Charlie, still can't get it to work on the root. Not sure if it's because I'm trying to redirect a .php file rather than a directory. I can redirect from other directories fine.

Hi,

I want to redirect some of the old pages which are links on various sites from CE4 i.e services.php to the new page in backlight.

I tried putting in redirects in the .htaccess but backlight rewrite rules override them as add extra bits on, unfortunately I don't have the brain power to work it as to what is going on.

Does anyone have some pointers please big_smile

Thanks in advance,
Terry

Hi,

anyone any idea why 'm getting small images on my page instead of the large image.

http://www.terryliveseyphotography.co.u … ommercial/

if you go direct to the gallery page, it display correct. http://www.terryliveseyphotography.co.u … cial-page/

I have the commercial page use a gallery above the copy as I want an image at the top of the page (like I use to on CE4) and without using hard coded links as i wanted to stick with the theme of everything is easily editable without ftp etc.

Cheers,
Terry

Only just seen the reply to this and great news that there is a work around.  Thanks and looking forward to the update wink

#43 Re: Backlight Support » Meta Description? » 2017-03-13 19:58:07

Hi Matt,

Any news on if this is going to be included on the update and any eta on the update. I haven't made my site live until I can add this in as I think it's quite an important feature.

Thanks,
Terry

Lol, yeah, you know I'll eventually transfer everything over and the world will be purely backlight and all will be right with the world big_smile  I probably jumped in too soon but the lure of online editing was too great smile - and I needed a project to do yikes

It's all looking great though and soo much nicer than the restrictions of the web module. Keep up the good work.

#45 Re: General » Markup Editor - Mou alternative » 2016-12-31 21:21:02

Thanks Matt, the best things are never free (although Mou was free, I still donated - fair is fair)

#46 Re: Backlight Support » Wordpress Columns » 2016-12-31 21:18:43

Terry

Hmmm as I was upgrading everything I thought it was all just improved (and I must say I like the fact it's all online and out of the web module - I hated that)

One for the future feature list then smile

Terry

Okay well that buggered up when I did that. lol

Think I fixed it for the larger sizes (over 1024) now but the small ones, the text in the h2 seems to be padded out from the right way too much and I cannot find the correct bit to put in the sections to make them have no padding hmm

Hmmm still at least it works smile hmm

Thanks Rod. I'll have a look at those, always good to get recommendation as Matt originally recommend Mou and it was fantastic.
