Extension: Weegee - Add thumbnail image for entries on the EE CP Edit page
Development and Programming
I’ve seen this come up a LOT lately, with different extensions. Did you recently upgrade anything on the server? The line in question is always:
$SESS->cache['mdesign'][trim($tmp[0])]['latest_version'] = trim($tmp[1]);That whole “_check_for_updates” function is TOTALLY useless and outdated.
What I would do is this:
1) rip out EVREYTHING from line 245 (a comment line with a lot of equal signs) to the end of the file, leaving
// END
}
?>at the bottom (to close the class).
2) Then remove line 100:
'control_panel_home_page' => 'control_panel_home_page',because we no longer need that hook.
3) Ah, this is getting a little stupid. Let me rip out all that stuff and post a new version. Back in a few.
I removed all that old update checking that actually wasn’t checking anything. Letest version of Weegee (1.0.1) is now available on the Weegee page.
To get all errors to go away (because I removed two settings) you may need to uninstall/reinstall the extension. Remember your settings!
Ryan– will you be making that same change to MD Add Sitename?
Thanks, Ryan. That did the trick.
I could make that change to MD Add Sitename, yeah. I’ll see if I can do that today. I would encourage you to use LG Add Sitename if you need a fix right away - it’s a more robust extension in many ways.
My needs are simple– just the name in a color– and MD AS works fine for it!
How come I’m the guy always creating the “simple” extensions for “simple” needs? 😉
I am comfortable saying that, while MD Add Sitename is for simple needs, MD MarkItUp 1.6 is for people with professional, complex needs and is extremely up to the task. It’s worth every penny!
OK, MD Add Sitename 1.2.2 is up. I removed the old-school update checking. I’ll also update this info on the original Add Sitename thread.
Off-topic, sorta, but having the same issue with update checking in Dulee Noted. You might want to update that one too. And maybe MarkItUp Free, even though you’ve discontinued it?
Thanks for the report, Adrienne. I’ll work on updating those as soon as I can.
Hi Ryan, I’m trying to download Weegee from your site: http://www.masugadesign.com/download.php?ext.weegee_101.zip and get the following error:
Either a referer was not sent or it was from another domain. The attempt has been logged and action will be taken if necessary. Please be aware that download applications that hide referers, such as GetRight, GoZilla! and Download Accelerator Plus, will prevent you from downloading files here. It is recommended that you disable the download managers and use your browsers in-built downloader.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Peter
Yeah…that’s this old download counting/protection script that I was using. Looks like it might be going haywire.
I really thought I had this at GitHub. I’ll add it there. Give me a little while and I’ll post back here when it’s all set.
OK, I put MD Weegee on GitHub. A few minor updates to it, which are listed in the README there.
Brilliant, Thanks Ryan.
Alas you need to update line 156 to read:
$LANG->fetch_language_file('md_weegee');It’s currently looking for the old language file (just weegee).
It works perfect.
Quote from your site:
NOTE: If you need an image preview that will work with a regular custom field, or with more than one field in different weblogs, you should check out LG Image Preview. It takes the main idea behind Weegee and runs a bit further. (I haven’t confirmed whether it will work with a ‘File’ field type).
LG Image Preview doesn’t work with Mark’s ‘File’, as that’s the first one I tried.
Cheers,
Peter
