Greetings.
I didn't notice many of the problems that folks were having. But excited to see NewsOffice still growing.
Have a question:
Can we integrate a latest comments option in our pages like the one in the Dashboard?

Many thanks.

Well there is no official way to do this, but it is possible.
I just made this real quick:

Link to down loadable file

Save that file as a .php file in the main NewsOffice directory. Then include it using:
And it should work for ALL comments. Not in a specific category or anything.

I hope it works and you might use it, but I can't give you any more support than this on it.
Good luck.

Thanks Tom.

I'll try it out.
Looking forward to seeing your CMS project.

Thanks again & peace.

Let me know if it works. I hope so

Yeah me to. When will it be done?
Not really soon, as I just posted a news message about.

Thanks Tom.
Nope. The include didn't work. Tried it various ways.

Thanks though.

Bummer...

Ehm... It worked in my situation, but that's, of course, the ideal environment for NewsOffice.

Any error messages you are willing to share so I can take a look why things go wrong?

Sorry.
I can't figure out how to get the error messages displayed in the CMS.
[GetSimple CMS] But I also didn't see any error messages listed in my browser's designer assist plugins.

Sorry.

Homer,

Two things you can try, if you want.

In the getsimple CMS directory (I downloaded it to understand how it works) and open the gsconfig.php file. Uncomment (remove the # sign) from the "#define('GSDEBUG', TRUE);" line.

Should hopefully show some errors, if not; do the following: (On newsoffice 2.0.15 Beta)

Open file: core/clean_boot.php
Change line 74: error_reporting(0);
To: error_reporting(E_ALL);

That activates NewsOffice its error function. Tell me how that went.

Tom

Thanks.

That was great info to have access to.

Here's the error messages that I got.....

Warning: include(myplugins/newsoffice/lastest_comments_homer.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/homerjackson/offline-web design work/333GetSimple-203/admin/inc/theme_functions.php(284) : eval()'d code on line 1

Thanks again.

The CMS can not find the file to include. Is this the same url prefix ("myplugins/newsoffice/" you used for your news page?

You can use
to see your actual path from which the current cms page is loaded.
Use that path, change it to point to your newsoffice installation and then the latest_comments_homer.php file. That filename is the name you gave the file you downloaded, right?

Good luck.

Tom
