Multiple problems upon .726-3 upgrade and AT 1.7 install
 Top

  • I just upgraded to .726-3 and installed AutoTheme 1.7Beta via AutoConvert and now I'm experiencing multiple problems that are beyond my abilities.

    It's clear that I need the help of a paid professional - anyone have recommendations on who could help me solve these for a standard programmer's fees?

    Here's the post I left in the AutoTheme forums at http://spidean.mckenzies.net, detailing the problems which went unanswered:

    Well, http://lavoice.org is up and running, but that seems to be about all. I hope someone here can offer some advice.

    Let me preface it by saying I'm not a PHP programmer, but can generally determine if tags are left open, or paste in a patch provided by someone who is.

    After RTFM'ing and following instructions for both AutoConvert and AutoTheme 1.7 beta to the letter in converting my customized-with-graphics-only version of ViPixel.com's PostNukeBlue2 theme, I have these persistent bugs:

    - Username and logout link continue to appear even after logout
    - Entire right blocks element appears on all pages, even when "right blocks in articles" setting is checked "no" (and checking it "yes" causes an extra login block to appear on the articles pages - above the "related links" block - and both of them to the left of the unwanted right-blocks element.
    - Search block appears corrupted. Direct link to search page works, but keywording something into the block and hitting "return" delivers an empty look-and-feel.
    - Time code is absolutely frozen at June 8, 2004, 10:59 p.m. - I believe this was the time that I finished the AT and AC setup.
    - Comments cannot be disabled for unregistered users, despite setting checkbox in Settings to "no"

    I'll be happy to design a logo, or do a bit of writing or page design - or pay a straight $75/hr fee via PayPal for the coder out there who can help me
    hack through these problems. My portfolio's at http://factoidlabs.com.

    Please help, though - I'm a seasoned HTML user, but permanently clueless (I've stared at the stuff for hours) when it comes to PHP.
  • Sorry... Must have missed that one icon_redface (next time bump your post if I don't answer)

    These issues sound familiar and are erroneous HTML and/or text left in the HTML templates after conversion.

    Have you looked in the HTML templates to make sure any crap is removed?

    Send me a zip of the theme and I'll look at it. AutoTheme AT mckenzies DOT net
