Re:feedback needed - 2005/10/14 17:56 I see that you have the backend version well on its way. Is this compatible with Joomla 1.0.2? Any news on the front end portion of the component? I am a member of a local racing series, and from what I can see in the backend, you nearly have what I need.

- Racers & Racer Profiles
- Classes
- Events/Venues
- Points

Does it handle total points? For instance. many if not all racers are in all the different classes. At the end of the season. The person with the most over all points wins the overall series cup.

As far as the frontend. In my case we would need tables setup for each class that would "grow" with each event. I read the history on how this project was developed. The importing of an excel spreadsheet is exactly how its done today on the old site. They have no way of archiving past years. Everything is static. I offered to setup a dynamic db generated site. I have some experience writing basic webapps, but I am very new to Joomla/Mambo. And my PHP experience is mostly procedural based.

Currently the person in charge of the series will do a write up of each race broken down into sections for each class all on one page along with some photos from the race. This is easy enough to do with the default comps in joomla. Keeping track and tabulating a history of races in another issue all together.

I have to admit I have not even installed it since I am not sure if it would work with Joomla. Please keep me posted. This is something that I am willing to donate to if it fits the bill.

Re:feedback needed - 2005/10/15 15:17 Hello,

I recently installed this component and everything seems to work except the "Display #" select box. Under my Global Configuration I have my list lengths set to 30. Therefore when viewing my components in the Admin. it sshould list up to 30 items. Lets say I have 40 banners. When I Components>Banners>Manager Banners, it should only list the most recent 30 of the 40 in the database.

When I do Components>Race Stats>Points the Display# select box always defaults to 10. I have 20 points places entered so it only will display 10.

The "display #" works fine in all my other components. I am assuming that this component is using an old function, or the code is not correct. I looked at the source code, and found this.

admin.racestats.html.php

Code:


 <table class="adminheading">
<td width="100%" class="sectionname">SEASON</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap">Display#</td> <td><? echo $pageNav->writeLimitBox(); ?></td><td>Search:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="search" value="<? echo $search;?>" class="inputbox" onChange="document.adminForm.submit();" /></td>
<td width="right"></td></tr></table>
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" class="adminlist">

I have not had a chance to see the changelog between mambo 4.5.2.x and Joomla, although it shouldnt be that much difference.

Basically, the only hold-up on finishing this is that I have my hands in too many projects at once and the paying projects get priority at the moment. I plan on finishing the bachend and front-end, plus ensure it is compatable with joomla as soon as I get some free time available between projects.

In the meantime, keep me posted on any features you would like it to have. I am making a to-do list and as soon as I get time will get everything done. Ed Wiget

Re:feedback needed - 2005/10/25 14:30 I have been playing around with the beta version, and found in my particular instance, that I am having problems with publishing races and stats. The publish "icon" is visible, but will not let me publish or unpublish races or stats.

Using Joomla 1.0.3

Components>Race Stats>Manage Race

and

Components>Race Stats>Manage Stats

When I try to publish a Race Stats item, it redirects me back to the "Manage Race" Screen.

I have been compiling a list of questions, comments, and suggestions. As soon as I have something that is more legable/helpful, I will pass it along to you.

thanks!

UPDATE: I found out how to make this work. For instance in function listSeason where you have

Code:


 
# Prepare pagelimit choices
$limit = intval( mosGetParam( $_POST, 'limit', 10 ) );
$limitstart = intval( mosGetParam( $_POST, 'limitstart', 0 ) );

Replace with..

Code:


 
$limit     = $mainframe->getUserStateFromRequest( "viewlistlimit", 'limit', $mosConfig_list_limit );
$limitstart = $mainframe->getUserStateFromRequest( "viewban{$option}limitstart", 'limitstart', 0 );

And where you have..

Code:


 
# Set up page navigation
include_once( "includes/pageNavigation.php" );
$pageNav = new mosPageNav( $total, $limitstart, $limit  );

Replace with ....

Code:


 
require_once( $GLOBALS['mosConfig_absolute_path'] . '/administrator/includes/pageNavigation.php' );
$pageNav = new mosPageNav( $total, $limitstart, $limit );

This code will have to be inserted where ever those lines appear in admin.racestats.php to get it to work on the other admin screens.

that would be great to keep me updated on joomla errors, I usually always start getting some free time around holiday season and I will work on getting everyones recommendations added and sort out compatibility with joomla too (which I havent even had the chance to install and test yet). Last time I had any free time and wanted to download it, was at the beginning of katrina and the site was down (I believe) Ed Wiget
