Re: Cannot change style/theme after 1.5.2 upgrade

You were exactly right. PHP errors are not displayed and the memory limit had been set to 12MB, but just a little more was needed because it worked fine set to 13MB. I went a ahead and set it higher though to avoid this problem in the future.

Thanks, Garvin! :)

Cannot change style/theme after 1.5.2 upgrade

Hi, I just upgraded my blog from Serendipity 1.4 to 1.5.2 and the only problem I see is that when I go to Manage Styles in the admin interface I get a plain while page (no css/images/formatting) with no listing of styles or any way to change the style; only the following text: Theme/Style options Th...

Is there supposed to be any confirmation page after a survey is completed/submitted? On the last page of the survey I hit the "Finish Survey" button which brought me to the "Available surveys" page here: http://85.10.193.9/UCCASS/index.php There is no indication whether my survey...

I've noticed the installer script also does not check whether the plugins directory is writable, which makes spartacus unusable since it cannot download plugins. I think it makes sense to check this directory as well at install, so if the user has to fix any permissions, they can do it all at once r...

I tested 1.0.4 and s9y_200612062342 nightly snapshot and they both had this problem.

installer permissions check bug

I noticed when I was installing serendipity recently that the installer told me my permissions all looked good, and then failed when trying to write the config after the next page because it could not write to 'uploads/' I discovered that the permissions were set correctly on the basedir, but not on...

Well, I've actually been wanting to get into serendipity development, and this seemed like a good time to jump into the code. I've had a look at the db structure and the code that makes the entry screen work, but I don't really see an intuitive way of assigning a default category for the group. Addi...

The plugin works great, thank you :)

Now I don't suppose there is a plugin to set the default category for new entries on a per-usergroup basis?

categories and permissions

Hi, I am setting up a multi-user blog where each user has his own category and should be able to post only in his category. I have setup the appropriate users, groups and categories and set their permissions. The problem is that every user can still create uncategorized entries. How can I prevent th...

Oh my... that was always there? I looked at the FAQ and somehow never saw it. Back to feeling stupid again!! ;)

I do think the additional text on spartacus site will help :)

I think on the Spartacus webpage http://spartacus.s9y.org/ underneath "What is it", you could add "How to get it" or something. A quick explaination of how to install it ("Configure plugins" -> "Click here to install a new event plugin") would have saved me a ...

I just installed the autosave plugin and encountered the same error doomsayer reported. I am using Firefox 1.5.0.4 on Linux. I think I've tracked the issue to whether the form serendipityEntry is labeled using the 'name' or 'id' property; and that appears to depend on how you set "Force XHTML 1...

I think my problem was unrelated. I fixed my php problem so now my captchas appear just like yours, and they work just as well, from Safari or Firefox on my Mac, or from my main desktop pc. I went back to your blog with Safari and posted another comment, this time being very careful about the captch...

To answer my own question, it seems I have a problem with freetype support in php. Freetype and GD jpeg support is required for the one-image captcha, therefore serendipity falls back to a different method of displaying the captchas on my blog.

I checked some other serendipity-powered blogs and it seems both the single image captcha and variable length captchas are completely normal. Perhaps I mistyped a letter in the short captcha on your blog the first time. In any case, the post was successful the second time, using Safari. I wonder why...
