I was thinking about switching to Mollom, I guess it couldn't hurt.

Thank you

We have had pretty good success trying the other methods like mollom when Recaptcha fails to do the job.

Goodluck

Spam in comments even with ReCaptcha

We're getting 20-100 spam comments per blog post even though we have ReCaptcha enabled. Any thoughts or solutions?

SS 2.4.5
Blog 0.4.1
Spam Protection 0.3
ReCaptcha 0.4.0

Thanks

Re: Tags with Apostrophes Break the Link

It is indeed a bug. I too had this problem with needing to use an apostrophe in a tag. Since single quotes ( ' ) are allowed in URL's, trying to format with htmlentities or urlencode in the controller (or the template $Link.XML method) had no effect on the actual URL being generated by the link.

Instead, I found that the tag code was being converted to it's HTML entity (') prior to the SQL query being run:
In BlogTree_Controller::SelectedTag() (Convert::raw2xml() - BlogTree.php line #300).

My simple solution was to edit BlogTree.php line #300 to remove the raw2xml conversion as below:

return ($this->request->latestParam('Action') == 'tag') ? $this->request->latestParam('ID') : '';

It's perhaps a temporary solution, but it certainly worked for me.

UPDATED

On second thought, it's probably best to keep the raw2xml conversion in the SelectedTag() function, as this function is also used for template output. Instead, edit BlogTree.php line #160 to revert the xml conversion back to raw for the purpose of escaping for the query:

$SQL_tag = Convert::raw2sql(Convert::xml2raw($tag));

This is probably the better solution.

disappearing widgets

dacar — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 04:39:44 +1300

Hi,

if i put some widgets to the blogtree, the blogholder or a blogentry, they all disappear after saving the changes.

i have put the following to page.php:

   public static $has_one = array(
       'Sidebar' => 'WidgetArea'
   );
and

$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Widgets", new CheckboxField("InheritSideBar", 'Inherit Sidebar From Parent'));
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Widgets", new WidgetAreaEditor("Sidebar"));

If i put widgets to a page i can save without problems. The widgets are showen after saving the changes.

I have searched the forum and found the problem often, but no solution to solve it. Can anybody help?

I have installed SS 2.4.5 and the latest Blog module.

Greetings, Carsten.

Here are some infos from Firebug:

ERROR [Notice]: Trying to get property of non-object

Re: Remove Author Field

webmanj — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 23:48:23 +1300

Hello all,

I'm a little late to the game but I do have a solution if no one has one that really works. Here's what you do:

public function populateDefaults(){
   parent::populateDefaults();
   $this->setField('Date', date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('now')));
   $this->Author = Member::currentUser() ? Member::currentUser()->FirstName : '';
}

Then, comment out OR remove/replace the following entries from getCMSFields

//$firstName = Member::currentUser() ? Member::currentUser()->FirstName : '';
//$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Main", new TextField("Author", _t("BlogEntry.AU", "Author"), $firstName),"Content");
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Main", new TextField("Author", _t("BlogEntry.AU", "Author")),"Content");

This has worked 100% of the time and I believe is the correct way to do it.

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks,
Jason

Sounds like a bug - it should encode the tag text to format it using HTML entities (i.e ' for '). If you can, dig down into the template that outputs the tags and find the variable, rather than $Something should be $Something.XML to ensure it's escaped.

Tags with Apostrophes Break the Link

juneallison — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 10:31:09 +1300

Hi,

I have a site where I'd like one of the tags to have an apostrophe (ie, What's Cooking). For any normal tag (that has no apostrophe) clicking on the tag will show you all of the posts with that tag. But my tag with the apostrophe won't pull up any results.

Any suggestions for correcting this would be great.

Thanks!

June

ok, I'm sorry I have scanned this and given an answer as how to translate a widget which is what it appeared to be asking for - I don't use the blog module widget. Instead I will move this thread to that area since the question is actually more specfic.
