Someone asked for changing the appearance and creating a popup form inside the guestbook plugin.
Please remember
Problems with pop-ups
The common faults with pop-up windows are:
* If scripting is disabled, or if the browser does not support JavaScript, the pop-up will not work
* Search engines cannot follow links to pop-up windows (scripted elements are ignored)
* Pop-ups present accessibility problems
* Site management tools (e.g. DreamWeaver) cannot update links to pop-ups if you move the destination page to another section of your site
* Many people have pop-up killers running that close the window the moment they are opened
* In many browsers, the default option is now to stop pop-ups opening in the first place
If you know what you do, you can now edit serendipity_event_guestbook.php
beginning at page 594
This is a basic example without a real popup window. But if you really want it to popup, use the functions for the serendipty comment popups. Perhaps Garvin may give us a hint how to use it here.
Code: Select all
/* call the entries page output function */
$this->generate_EntriesPage();
/* call the form page output function */
$this->generate_FormPage();
echo '</div> <!-- serendipity_entry_body -->' . "\n";
echo '</div> <!-- serendipity_entry -->' . "\n";
echo '</div> <!-- serendipity_Entry_Date -->';
}
} // generate_Page end
/* make guestbook form */
function generate_FormPage() {
change it to something like this
Code: Select all
/* call the form page output function */
$this->generate_FormPopupPage();
/* call the entries page output function */
$this->generate_EntriesPage();
echo '</div> <!-- serendipity_entry_body -->' . "\n";
echo '</div> <!-- serendipity_entry -->' . "\n";
echo '</div> <!-- serendipity_Entry_Date -->';
}
} // generate_Page end
/* make guestbook popup form */
function generate_FormPopupPage() {
$is_guestbook_path = $this->get_config('pageurl');
if ($serendipity['rewrite'] != 'none') {
$append = '?';
} else {
$append = '&';
}
if($_GET['serendipity']['popup'] == 1) {
/* call the form page output function */
$this->generate_FormPage();
} else {
$url = $is_guestbook_path . $append . 'serendipity[popup]=1';
/* make this behave like you want it to appear */
echo '<div align="center"><a href="' . $url . '">' . TEXT_POPUPFORM . '</a></div><br />';
}
}
/* make guestbook form */
function generate_FormPage() {
Code: Select all
@define('TEXT_POPUPFORM', 'guestbook entry form');
