adroussel, you figured it out in the meanwhile...?

sorry for mass chat here..

no I only get white pages on some scoring processes when my uddeIM plugin is published, so I'm nut using it for now, only the high score shout plugin works fine alone

mh.. iam not using the uddeim plugin. so i do wait for better times.

Ok,

For those who've got white pages, I've been able to recreate it - just trying to explain it.

Can you confirm the plugins (puarcade ones) which you have installed
Which plugins have which options enabled/disabled

In my example, I found that running J1.5, I enabled the uddeim plugin but disabled the "notify new champion" option. This provided me with the white screen.

Switching it back on seemed to resolve the issue.

Im still digging at the moment, but I think the issue is related to how the plugin quits early finding out things have been disabled.. (use of the exit function may be wrong, maybe it should be return).

Regards,
James.

In fact in the plugin which you have... If you look at the .php file in question you will see something like (uddeim example used):

Code:

$option = $mambotParams->get( 'notifyNewChampion', 'basic' ); /* * if switched off - quit early */ if ( $option == 0 ) { exit; } // dont bother if the old user is a guest! if ( $olduserid == 0 ) { exit; }

where as if you change it to something like:

Code:

$option = $mambotParams->get( 'notifyNewChampion', 'basic' ); /* * if switched off - quit early */ if ( $option == 0 ) { return false; } // dont bother if the old user is a guest! if ( $olduserid == 0 ) { return false; }

I don't get the white screen, does this resolve everyone elses issue? Regards, James.

yes, i think with the changed code it works now

Ok,

I'll update the uddeim plugin and get that re-published.

Are there any amendments people need to this plugin (i.e. customizations)?

James.

with return false instead of exit it will work for now (risp plugin). 10 times tested (only shout if highscore broken) and all ok.

i will post again if it does any trouble again.

iam using J1.5.6, latest pua RC and the new risp shoutbox.

anyone have the shout modded with maybe a medal or a award before text? i dont know how i can implement this... grmpf

Ok I've sent over new versions (which resolve the "exit" issue) of the following plugins to Pragma:

• Smo


• Risp (including change of table name for j1.5 and also url)


• Uddeim

Also, I've sent over another "experimental" plugin for jAwards. This one will assign a medal to a user for becoming a champion of a game (and move it if the ownership changes).

Note: You need to configure the medalid for the plugin, otherwise it wont do anything.

Let me know if you get any other issues.
James.

Great!

What about the double post in the shout box?
It's shouting twice as one is sent by the component and one by the plugin?

In that case, maybe the plugin should only say 'new high score!' as a light addition to the first shout...?

I'm looking forward to try the jaward plug! Nice you did it!

Hi,

Its not the component and the plugin competing...

Its the fact that the plugin only listens to things and responds to them.

We need to make the component not send both messages in that occasion.

I've changed the cls.puarcade.php file and have sent it to Pragma for inclusion into the SVN.

Regards,
James.

I just committed those changes JGB, thanks for sending them over.

Guys, I've updated the plugins in the subscriber area to include the changes mentioned here by JGB. So, it should only fire 1 shout when a new champion is crowned. There shouldn't be any more blank screens when saving a score. Shoutbox uses different tables if on Joomla 1.5.

I've also posted the experimental JAwards plugin. Please let us know your feedback here.

About UddeIM notification
It would be nice to customize the sender name
for exemple'arcade' instead of public user...
if possible

ok, so how do I use the JAwards plugin? I have jawards on my site, and I use the contest of the month module. I just have no idea what this plugin does?

I don't have it but
it's said to update a medal owner when someone gets first place on one game

so I guess in the plugin parameters you can set a medal id (different from the one for the contest of the month) and a game id to dedicate that medal...

As jg_balcombe precised you need to set a medalid... (if you can't see the medalid parameter in the plugin parameters maybe you'll have to set it in the code)

hope it helps

About UddeIm notification, it works just fine,

but somthing weird is when a new hiscore notification comes, it shows in the inbox but the new mail notification doesn't show in the cb login module where as other uddeim messages show.

I have no idea why, maybe because of the sender?
So I added to the query the fromid field and hardcoded the admin user id. So now the notifiactions comes from admin but it did not change

CBlogin is looking in uddeim table for toread parameter and it's 0 so it should be ok, but cb login still doesn't show new hiscore PM notifications...

anyone experienced this?
