cpmFetch displays NOTHING for me
Tried cpmFetch 1.6.0 and 1.6.2 - same problem (running 1.6.0. atm)
http://event-team-saar.de/cpmfetch/cftest.php
Coppermine 1.3.5. (using the SMF bridge)
php 4.3.10
SMF 1.1 RC1
Any ideas how to solve this problem?
Okay, go back to 1.6.2 There is some fixes in there that you should have.
You and RalphFolkes have the same problem. Bridging. This is explained a bunch of times, but here it is again in summary.
CpmFetch tries to extract userdata about the user that submitted each image to use in making subtitles. When you mod CPG and hook into other systems it does not know where to get the data from. So, when it sees image A was added by user 6, and the CPG tables do not have a user #6, it nixes that as a bad result and skips it.
There is no way that I could have written CPG and anticpated every mod out there. So thats the problem. You modified the way CPG works and now this tool is not working since it cannot find data that is no longer where it should be. Its perfectly reasonable.
So, solutions?
1) Mod cpmfetch so that it knows where to find the user data or does not look for it.
2) Create fake users in the cpg to reflect the user #'s assigned to photos.
3) Write a script that populates the cpg tables with userdata from the thing you are mod'ed too. Then post the script up so the bunches of other people with this problem can use it too.
Personally I would recommend 2 if you only have a few board users, or #3 if you feel up to it, or have a lot of users.
#1 will make it a pain for you to upgrade, and its a lot of little changes to take it out (otherwise I would just post the changes here)
Hope the explanation helps, sorry it breaks when you change the program its supposed to work with. With the next version (1.7) I will probably insert a flag so you can tell it not to look up userdata at all. This hurts your options for subtitles, but its better than it not working right
- the next version changes how it works to solve a lot of problems aside from this one due to funny configurations.
Let me know if you have any questions...
