Playa 1.0.9 not rendering correctly on EE publish page
Development and Programming
Hi there,
We’ve installed Playa 1.0.9, but it doesn’t seem to render correctly in our publish page in the EE control panel when compared to what it looks like on the developers webpage (http://brandon-kelly.com/apps/playa/).
I’ve attached an image of the problem to this post.
We’re running ExpressionEngine 1.6.1 on PHP Version 5.2.4
Has anyone else run across this problem? Any help would be much appreciated. (I’ve emailed the developer, but haven’t received a response.)
Thank you, Robert
Just dealing with this issue now. In my case I think it’s because i’m setting up the draft site in a subdirectory. For some reason the extension isn’t accounting for this when it’s referencing the playa.css and playa.js files. I used the activity monitor in safari to figure out where it expected them, then moved a copy of the two files there. Seems to have worked.
Somewhere around line 611 you can set the path for your temp URL.
<pre><code> // $playa_dir = ‘/’.$PREFS->ini(‘system_folder’).’/extensions/playa/’;
$playa_dir = '/~tempinfo/system/extensions/playa/';[/code]
Then set it back on launch day.
Take good notes!
Hi all,
This issue has (hopefully!) been fixed in Playa 1.1: http://brandon-kelly.com/apps/playa/.
Please let me know if you’re still having problems.
Also, if you’re using a masked control panel, there’s a new blurb on that page about how to get Playa working in those. (Similar issue.)
