Hello -

I'm using mod_cbpblatest inside of roktabs to display latest blog only, embedded in an article with Modules Anywhere.


I have two issues:

1. I can't get it work in username mode (no avatar, just show username)

I implemented the fix suggested in thread www.joomlapolis.com/forum/121-profilebook/137398-solved-module-cbpblatest-wall-entry-incorrect?limit=6&start=6 but once nested inside of roktabs, it doesn't work anymore.

Should I be using the MYSQL query that user marykroeger proposed since the simple swapout of changing the modules code from formatname to name doesn't hold?

2. In avatar only mode, the size of thumb is HUGE for a module and I don't want to change it in CB itself, since it's perfect there; also when avatars are showing, I needed to kill the bullets, and did (see 2a)

b) I've gotten rid of the bullets so that's solved by changing

Line 96:
Code:
$return .= '<li>' . ( $showAvatar ? ( $avatar . ' ' ) : '' ) . $entryText . '</li>';
to

Line 96:
Code:
$return .= ( $showAvatar ? ( $avatar . ' ' ) : '' ) . $entryText . '<br />';


b) I read this thread www.joomlapolis.com/forum/121-profilebook/147191-profile-book-latest-avatar-size-help-request and tried all sorts of stuff to control the avatar size with no results. Can I hardwire a size into the php output string somehow?
Line 96:
Code:
$return .= ( $showAvatar ? ( $avatar . ' ' ) : '' ) . $entryText . '<br />';

Sorry for the noob questions -- old school programmer going up the web languages learning curve :).

Many thanks,

~Avasa

Next release will address most if not all your issues as it is substitution driven and can easily be completely customized from the modules parameters. Have made note to rest of team that module needs releasing, sorry do not have a release date.

Hi.
Just wondering when this next release is likely to happen ?
I have issues with the wrong user being attributed to the latest entry - ie - Fred comments on Mikes Wall - the Module says Mike has commented on his wall.

I found what was supposed to be a fix for this but it doesnt work for me ?
www.joomlapolis.com/forum/121-profilebook/137398-solved-module-cbpblatest-wall-entry-incorrect?limit=6&start=6

there are two instances of "formatname" in the mentioned file and i have tried either and both but all it does for me is remove the names completely.

It does seem to be a fundamental flaw in the module and i wonder if a permanent fix is going to be soon as this was discovered many months ago ?
thanks

This is a bug with current release that has been addressed with next release. Have mentioned again to team we need to make a release of this version so the known issues can be resolved. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sorry, I don't have a release date. Likely soon as we're going through and fixing some issues with profilebook module and profilegallery module to prepare new releases for both.
