James artispot on "ELEMENTIA 4 IN 1 - Blog Entries" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/elementia-4-in-1-blog-entries#post-20984 Tue, 14 Jun 2011 04:01:04 +0000 artispot 20984@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Okay, I got the form to submit, now I just need it to refresh the page and reset the form to its default settings. I just realized I'm supporting myself on this one! LOL. artispot on "ELEMENTIA 4 IN 1 - Blog Entries" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/elementia-4-in-1-blog-entries#post-20981 Tue, 14 Jun 2011 01:51:14 +0000 artispot 20981@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Okay, I realized that the problem was that the ajax function I'm calling isn't made to work with the comments section. After opening up custom.js, I see it's strictly for the contact page. I'm seeing if I can tweak some things now, but any pointers? artispot on "ELEMENTIA 4 IN 1 - Blog Entries" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/elementia-4-in-1-blog-entries#post-20973 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 19:26:30 +0000 artispot 20973@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Interestingly enough, I got everything to work, except the comments section. I'm forwarding the link to my blog page: <a href="http://www.artispot.com/main/blog.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.artispot.com/main/blog.php</a> If you click on any of the blog entries, it'll take you to the post page, where I'm having an issue. As you can see, validation works just fine. However, when I try to submit a new post, the button disappears and nothing happens. I'm posting some code so you can see how I'm trying to acheive it. Form code first. I've altered the original to allow ajax: <code> <form id="commentform" method="post" action="" class="ajax_form"> <div class="personal_data"><?php if (!isset($errorC) || $errorC == true){ ?> " ><label for="author">Name (required)</label><input type="text" tabindex="1" size="22" value='<?php if (isset($the_name)) { echo $the_name; } else { echo "Name"; } ?>' id="author" class="text_input is_name" name="author"/> "><label for="email">Mail (will not be published) (required)</label><input type="text" tabindex="2" size="22" value='<?php if (isset($the_email)) { echo $the_email; } else { echo "Email"; } ?>' id="email" class="text_input is_email" name="email"/> <label for="url">Website</label><input type="text" tabindex="3" size="22"value="<?php if (isset($the_website)) { echo $the_website; } else { echo "Website URL"; }?>" id="url" class="text_input" name="url"/> </div> <div class="message_data"> "><textarea style="width: 589px !important" tabindex="4" class="text_area is_empty" rows="10" cols="100%" id="comment" name="comment"><?php if (isset($the_message)) echo $the_message ?></textarea> </div> <input type="hidden" id="postID" name="postID" value="<?php echo $postID; ?>" /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" tabindex="5" id="submit" class="button" name="submit"/> <?php } else { ?> <?php } ?> </form> </code> Now for the actual submission code. I've just re-used the Contact.php code and changed some things: <code> if(isset($_POST['Submit']) || isset($_POST['ajax'])){ $errorC = false; $postID = $_POST['postID']; $the_name = $_POST['author']; $the_email = $_POST['email']; date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York'); $time = time(); function makeClickableWebsite($the_website) { $the_website = eregi_replace('(((f|ht){1}tp://)[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]+)', '<a href="\\1">\\1</a>', $the_website); $the_website = eregi_replace('([[:space:]()[{}])(www.[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]+)', '\\1<a href="http://\\2">\\2</a>', $the_website); $the_website = eregi_replace('([_\.0-9a-z-]+@([0-9a-z][0-9a-z-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,3})', '<a href="mailto:\\1">\\1</a>', $the_website); return $the_website; } $the_website = makeClickableWebsite(stripslashes($_POST['website'])); function makeClickableLinks($the_message) { $the_message = eregi_replace('(((f|ht){1}tp://)[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]+)', '<a href="\\1">\\1</a>', $the_message); $the_message = eregi_replace('([[:space:]()[{}])(www.[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]+)', '\\1<a href="http://\\2">\\2</a>', $the_message); $the_message = eregi_replace('([_\.0-9a-z-]+@([0-9a-z][0-9a-z-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,3})', '<a href="mailto:\\1">\\1</a>', $the_message); return $the_message; } $the_message = makeClickableLinks(str_replace(array("\\r\\n", "\\r", "\\n"), " ", stripslashes($_POST['comment']))); if(!checkmymail($the_email)) { $errorC = true; $the_emailclass = "error"; }else{ $the_emailclass = "valid"; } if($the_name == "" || $the_name == "Name") { $errorC = true; $the_nameclass = "error"; }else{ $the_nameclass = "valid"; } if($the_message == "") { $errorC = true; $the_messageclass = "error"; }else{ $the_messageclass = "valid"; } if($errorC == false) { $newcomment = mysql_query("INSERT into $table24 (postID, commentDate, author, email, website, comment) VALUES ('$postID', '$time', '$the_name', '$the_email', '$the_website', '$message')") or die (mysql_error()); if(isset($_POST['ajax'])){ echo"Thank you for your comment!"; } getcount($table24, $postID); getcomments($table24, $postID); } } function checkmymail($the_email){ $email_flag=preg_match("!^\w[\w|\.|\-]+@\w[\w|\.|\-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$!",$the_email); return $email_flag; } </code> I'm calling in the script using this code: <code> if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) { include('../phpf/submitcomment.php'); } </code> Same as on the contact page. Calling in the script once the form is set. Can you help?

I didn't get an email, and so I figured I'd check the site to see if there were any responses. I'm not using WP for this, I'm just customizing the html and php to suit my needs. But I figured out how to do it manually, so thanks for your help. One other thing, though, I guess I have to do the same for the comments as well, then, eh? Customize the function to also include a mysql update whenever someone submits a comment and then loop through them to display them on the page. This is such a great theme, I'm really impressed with it. Thanks for everything!

By the sounds of it, yours is set to 2. Please post the site URL if you need further help.

I downloaded and deployed it with no problem. Now, I'm customizing it and I was wondering about the blog section. So, I want to create a while loop to pull blog entries from a database, and I was wondering about pagination, because it looks like the Blog page limits it to 2 entries per page. Is that an automatic function or do I have to do something to create more tabs at the bottom where it says 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. I'm really excited about using this theme. I've been looking forward to it for months! Way to go, Kriesi!
