  • Steve W. added a new discussion topic Changing Icon Sizes in the group Elgg Technical Support
    Hello...  The HypeWall Extended plugin on the activity page beneath the comments text box has generic Icons for 'share a link', 'share a photo', 'location', 'tag friends', 'add tags', etc.   Is there...
    • Maybe the change of icon size option in hypeWall Extended never worked. Or it might no longer work with newer versions of hypeWall (and/or on Elgg 2.x).

      I would suggest to make a post on the hypeWall Extended plugin page about your problem. Changes that the plugin developer notices it are better then. Or open an issue at https://github.com/nlybe/hypeWall_Extended.

    • Yes, I do have an https site, but I have verified via "https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html#hostname=a2ss43.a2hosting.com%20" that my certificates are good.  As far I as know, the 'Feedback' plugin is the only one I have so far with an ajax request.  I narrowed the problem down to the latest Andoid ADK version is not accepting third party page requests.  The only way I believe that it can be fixed is:
      ​1.  Manually lower the SDK version from my Android Studio app, which entails having to create a whole new app project because Google Play does not allow updates with lower SDK versions.
      ​2.  Write a workaround code in one of the app files (not really doable at the moment, with my limited coding ability).
      ​3.  Find another plugin that does not use ajax request in the Elgg plugin directory.  So far, I haven't been able to find a plugin other than the "Feedback" one that works with Elgg version 2.3.3.

      I'd greatly appreciate any other suggestions that I may be missing.  Thanks again.

    • You could try it with version 2.0.0 of the Feedback plugin. If I remember correctly, this version does not yet use ajax requests. But this version has a bit less functionality compared to the latest version.

      Or you can try to figure out how to get your Android app to not block the ajax requests. I have absolutely no knowledge about Android app coding, so I can't give you any advice here. But googling for example for "android sdk ajax request blocked" or similar searches should give you some results indicating that there are ways to give an app certain permissions, allow cross-domain request (even though the ajax request of Feedback is for the same domain...) and maybe whitelisting domains. What exactly might be necessary is beyond my knowledge though.

    • I was able to remove the text that read "What are you doing?  Tell everyone on the wire:" by removing the offending line of code from the river_addon language file.  The only problem is that placeholder text that reads, river_addon:thewire, remains on the page.  As a temporary fix,  I just removed the comment tags and replaced the text with "Welcome:" or whatever else I may want it to read in the future.  I couldn't find any css files in the river_addon plugin that effected this area either.  Maybe sometime later I will look into my theme's ccs files to see if there is anything that can affect this area.  Thanks again.

    • If you just remove an entry from a language file, there will still be an output. Instead of the text string right of => the raw language string left of it is displayed. You need to find the line in code that results in the output and comment out that line. You need to look for a line that contains

      elgg_echo("river_addon:thewire")

      in the code. And this line is not likely in a css file.

    • Great news!  I found the line of code that you mentioned in the river_addon plugin with file name riverwire.php.  Now that there's no more wire box nor text, I can move forward with finishing my website (until the next snag...).  I appreciate your assistance and guidance.
