Title: COMMENTS not working in some albums.. hlp!
Post by: mendzz on December 31, 2004, 07:52:02 am: Hey..

I have the config. allowing everyone to post comments.. but yet in some albums it shows the comment box under the picture and in others i doesn't...

Any ideas why? Is there any other thing i can do in a particular album to allow comments?

Any help would be great..

Happy New Year!!

Post by: Tranz on December 31, 2004, 08:08:26 am: Where do you see the '1'? Did you go to Album Properties? It should look something like this (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#album_prop). If not, you probably have a custom installation, and you would need to contact the party that customized it.

It turned out that they didn't get the installation from here, but through their host, which was the one that mucked things up. You either need to ask your host for help since we don't know what they (or their vendor) did, or reinstall with a copy from this site (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89658).

Post by: mendzz on December 31, 2004, 09:44:53 am: I use globat.com hosting.. they are a bunch of bone heads.. but it's very cheap.. like $56 a year for 2.5 gig of storage.. know a better host? anyway.. I had this prob. so they said they will fix it.. all they did was reset and reinstall the whole thing losing all my data and i still have the same prob.. it seems like their tech support does more harm than good.. is there a way i can just fix it without them?

Post by: Tranz on December 31, 2004, 10:03:27 am: That's a bummer. :(

Yes, you should do what the other person was told to do... delete all coppermine files provided by the host and reinstall with the files from our site. Make sure to back up files and database before deletion just in case.
