I need some help. I recently added this widget. Then I went and bought the templates. After I added the temples widget all this code popped up and I had to delete the widget from my mod directory so my site would work. now i don't have any toolbar. does anyone now how i can enable my old one through the code?
cofelice, as stated in the description, the topbar templates need to be used with the commercial version of the vazco_topbar. It will cause issues with the free version.
Simply remove the topbar plugin and your old topbar should re-appear. In case this won't help, you may delete your view_paths from your data folder to clear cache. Then go to the plugins section and re-order any of the widgets. Your site will go back to normal then.
OK Thanks...sorry to be a pain in the butt.
Np. Btw, after you buy the full version of the plugin, you can use the forums on Elggdev to report problems. This way you will get your answer quicker. There are usually some usefull information there as well.
Free version looks fine in FF messy in IE8!! Any ideas??
I have the commercial version, and i cant seem to get the drop downs to work in the new version, also do not have links for [show links] in the admin interface. I upgraded from a previous commercial version.
Thanks for any help
chambo, I'll look into it. We didn't test the free version on all the browsers.
midknight, please look at the forums. There are two ways to define links now - by default, each user can define their own links and override admin links. You can turn this off in admin settings. If you have this option turned on, you won't see change if you have your personal links set, and you change the admin links. Try turning the option off in plugin's settings.
Hey Vazco, Dunno if I am doing something wrong, but im finding that the css.php does nothing at all when I make changes. It just remains the same, even if i rename the css i just stays the same As i said it looks great in FF but i.e everyhting has dropped down.
chambo, you have to refresh the cache. Reorder any of the plugins to refresh the CSS.
@vazco Id like to buy but it does not seen to work with the loginbyemail plug. Do you got the topbar with email available or could you make it available with email login?
dont even have cach turned on ,so thats not it
chambo, there are two cache settings. Do you have all of them turned off? I can't see why the css wouldn't refresh, maybe there is some bug in your Elgg's core, or maybe some other plugin of yours has a vazco_topbar/css.php view.
Brandon, I can make the topbar compatible with the loginbyemail as a custom development. You can contact me at info@elggdev.com
yeah i got both turned off, I always do when when developing. Ill check other plugins though
I'm sorry to bother you. I'm using the Free version of your plugin, without the custom links tool, but that comes up in the dropdown menu (User Links). When I click it I get an 404-message. So how do I remove that link.
Niels, you have to put an empty link in a box, this should remove the link. In case this won't help, please report it and I'll fix it in the next release.
Sorry that I'm checking so late, I will try it
No it won't work!
Niels, you have to go to start.php and remove lines:
if (get_plugin_setting('userlinks','vazco_topbar') != 'no')
add_menu(elgg_echo('vazco_topbar:userslinks'), $CONFIG->wwwroot . "mod/vazco_topbar/userlinks.php");

Very nice! I just wanted to turn off the elgg logo at the top (it's in the footer already) and the ability to join the tools to the profile icon just made it that much nicer. And it plays well with custom_index_widgets too!
Thanks,
doug
I am pretty new to this and do not know too much about developing or code. I have tried a bunch of plugins and when I enable them in the tool admin I get this:
Plugin custom_topbar_link was enabled successfully.
custom_topbar_link is a misconfigured plugin.
All of the plug-ins give me this misconfigured plugin. I am running elgg 1.6. Can some one help me with this? I have tried to re install elgg 3 times and still the same thing. I have read somehings on the site about the plugin might not have a start page, but I don't know how to make a start page. Vazco, I had your bottom bar working at one time, but now I am still getting the error message in for a misconfigured playin.
Please help the mentaly challenged.
Thanks
I got this also:
custom_topbar_link is a misconfigured plugin.
