UPDATE: found the discrepancy between the two sides. It was in LAYOUT>Max-width. One was at 1440 and the other at 1334. Both are now at 1334 and now display the slide show identically.

Which should be just another motivation to use a single backlight setup and the language feature of Backlight 2... Sorry Pierre, I couldn't resist.

Hi, Rod.  I think I've come up with a new and even more annoying version of this.

Today, when I tried to update my galleries, I got an error message:

Can't update this collection.
Unable to perform action: getSetupForTemplate
Message: Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; Markdown_Parser has a depreciated constructor|#0

...followed by a bunch of filenames and errors far too long to retype here.

However, when I go to the galleries at my website (www.ravenfallsphotography.com) -- and I mean any gallery, not just the one I tried and failed to update, I get the following error message printed across the top of the page:

Unknown error type: [8192] Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; Markdown_Parser has a deprecated constructor
ERROR [8192] Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; Markdown_Parser has a deprecated constructor
Unknown error on line 191 in file /home2/jdwmedi1/public_html/ravenfalls/publisher/api/lib/markdown.php, PHP 7.0.33 (Linux)

Needless to say, this makes my site look really unprofessional.

Is there a way to fix this, or am I doomed to have to create an entirely new website from scratch?

Can you downgrade the php version you use to something like 5.6?

Nice! smile

There might be some unwanted side effects..... There are additional properties that control how the wrapping happens: overflow-wrap, word-break, or hyphens.

It is kind of difficult to follow what's going on since you mixed different issues in the same thread sad

For Wp, what is your home page setting (Wordpress > Appearance > Customize > Homepage Settings)? 

Your homepage displays
x  Your latest posts
    A static page

For the URL issue, I would send your ftp login and backlight admin login to Ben so he can have a closer look.

Daniel, have you tried doing this in a menu set yet? So far, I can't get it to work. Instead of the chosen language showing in the menu, all languages are showing. See my test page: https://backlight-2-100.barbeephoto.com/lt/

I thought I used it during beta testing... but doesn't work for me either (anymore)...

Replacing <span> with <div> works:

<div data-lang="en">Gallery</div><div data-lang="fr">Galarie</div><div data-lang="de">Galerien</div>

So it's appearing as you want it to?

Yes.
I don't understand your point about vertical navigation, I want to have horizontal one, at least on a PC. Is it possible to have different ones on pc and mobile ?

Just resize your test site to make it smaller and then you will notice that the menu will disappear. Yes, there are different menu options.

Also I have no idear to set the menue sets to a other language. Is it possible to get a step by step documentation, because I am a dummy in programming web pages.

It is a bit cumbersome, but for the menu, you have to code each entry like this:

<span data-lang="en">Telephone</span><span data-lang="fr">Téléphone</span><span data-lang="de">Telefon</span>

The same trick can be used for some of the items for the contact page that are edited outside of the language editor.

Two more observations/questions about that https issue:
- If I write the URL as https://lucnadeau.ca/en it will be https. But if I just write lucnadeau.ca or, when in https mode, I go back using the masthead link, I get back to http; why?

- In https mode, the formatting of thumbnails is different than in http mode. Why?

In the backlight admin setting, did you set your domain as httpS://.... ?

#487 Re: Backlight 2 Support » Contact form in French » 2019-01-09 05:30:30

Your setup seems to be right. Which fields are not properly shown?

Then there is always this: https://danielleu.com/blog/2016/07/addi … sed-pages/

Sorry, the slideshow link doesn't work anymore, but you can see it in action over here: https://danielleu.com/shop/wood-panels/. I use it to add a slideshow to a gallery page.

My only other question relates to my planned integration of "Cart" down the road.  Whynopadlock indicates that my site is using an outdated version of TLS.  Would I need to upgrade the TLS before implementing Cart?

I don't know which version of TLS is required for the Cart to work properly. That would be a question for Ben.

Another question:
What could be the reason why the font of the photo search above the footer in Safari is grey, while the font in Firefox is red?
In custom.css I have set the color to red.

And what could be the reason here? I've already cleared the cache in Backlight 2 and deleted the history in Safari and Firefox. Still the same different font colors

Greetings

Chrome and Safari show the text in gray. Searching the internet, it looks like this is a bug in those browsers. Try to use -webkit-text-fill-color:

/* Schriftfarbe im Suchfeld 
=========================== */

form input[type="color"],
form input[type="date"],
form input[type="datetime"],
form input[type="datetime-local"],
form input[type="email"],
form input[type="month"],
form input[type="number"],
form input[type="password"],
form input[type="search"],
form input[type="tel"],
form input[type="text"],
form input[type="time"],
form input[type="url"],
form input[type="week"],

My current website URL is HTTP; can I just change it to HTTPS for better security or do I need to add additional code?  Thanks

Aaron

Your page is already setup for https. You have the certificate and all. You just need to tell Backlight that your site's URL starts with https (Backlight > Admin  > Settings).

But I would suggest to add a global redirect from http to https to your /.htaccess file: http://community.theturninggate.net/vie … 684#p55684

If support is not able or willing to help me, I would bring my business somewhere else.

Please check that the site url starts with https:// instead of http://.

I don't see the text of pallets anywhere in my pages. What do I have to do to make it useable? different type of document? Different template? Didn't get them in CE4 too. Always wondered...

You need to select a two or three column layout. That's part the Layout section of the Pangolin page template.

I don't know if that change will do anything for you, but I still suggest updating to Backlight 1.2.3 anyway.

#497 Re: Backlight Support » different rendering of <ul> in okapi and pangolin templates » 2018-12-31 22:21:50

There is a global css setting that invalidates the indents:

* {
    padding: 0;
}

I can get the indents back with following custom.css code:

.the__copy ul {
    padding-left: 1.5em;
}

A couple of ways I can think of.
1) create an album set that contains the three albums and insert that set into the home page.

That's what I did many moons ago when I added the image strip at the bottom of my home page.

Hi,

I have one album behind a lock. The lock icon is in place. Still there is no fence around the album, I get in without anything looking like a passwordcontrol or something like that.

www.fotograafdonald.nl/2019 and then galleries -> aviation

Got a report from someone that it DOES work... probably because I am the admin...?

Donald

Try to access the page from a different browser or log-off from the backlight admin.
