Yanc 1.5x - Compatible with Joomla 1.5.3?

[vancanneyt]

tested the package, did not find any bugs yet! I'll test more in coming days. Thanks adam.

I too am getting the Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::load() in /var/www/site1.5.3/components/com_yanc/yanc.html.php on line 73 error and i'm using the posted package com_yanc_trunk-20-06-2008.zip

I can, however, subscribe to any newsletter from the mod_yanc_subscribe module...

[vancanneyt]

found a bug ;-)
when working with no editor and when you compose a mailing, after saving alle the uote characters get a backslash. example:

Code:

'test' becomes \'test\'
<a href="http://www.joomla.org" target="_blank">link</a> becomes <a href=\"http://www.joomla.org\" target=\"_blank\">link</a>

a manual copy of the html into the database is a temporary solution.
update: this is also when you edit a mailing template.

other bug is when you try to forward a mailing that has been send out in the frontend, the layout disappears.
url: index.php?option=com_yanc&act=archive&task=forward&cid=16&no_html=1
removing &nohtml=1 solves this issue

Thank goodness I found this thread!

I had just installed the latest Yanc on my 1.5.5 Joomla with CB 1.2 RC 2 , and was found I couldn't send out mailings. So I tried that package posted on this thread and it works a treat! But I do get that same bug as the last poster, even when using the wysiwyg editor I noticed that, for example, that's becomes that that\'s. But right now I am so relived to get this thing working that I don\'t really care 

Thanks for the hard work!

[wickhop]

can people running joomla 1.5 test the attached version?

I installed it.
The latest yanc version available for download does transfer the mambot files to the mambots folder (if there is one.. if not u could make it by hand) and it would place the files in there correctly..
The version you uploaded didn't but i could transfer the files over ftp.. so that wasnt a big deal.

What seems to be fixed is the [name] in the email, it is now replaced by the users name.
The [website] isn't.. thats just still displayed as [website] but thats not really a problem.
For me this version seems to work correctly except for displaying the website adress which I can enter manually as well

I'm gonna try to send out a mailing tonight so i will keep you updated.

[Adam]

well.. [website] isn't a real working tag anyway..
it's just there to indicate that you should probably change that message.

Adam,

I've tested on a 1.5.4 Joomla site and it's working fine, except for 2 specific problems:

1) Every time I try to save a template or mailing, I'm logged out of the Joomla Admin. The changes are saved OK anyway.
2) My templates are gettins some unexpected characters. For every " or ' it's putting a \ before on every save. So, if I have the template 5 times, I get something like \\\\\"

Would have any solution for these? Specially for the 2), as the 1) is not a big deal at all

Best,
Ricardo

[Adam]

will have a look at it..

you second issue seems to be related to magic quotes which Joomla isn't handling correctly.
will see if I can locate what exactly's causing that..

can you post your relavant php settings (from system -> system info screen) here?

Same problem (joomla 1.5.6)
The bigest trouble is to be deloggued from the backend.
Then, there is a � instead of french accents.
And accents problems with the mailings I sent.

But really a great product !!! Could you continue to develop it ? It is great with CB 1.2 !!!

Hi,

is the trunk-version "trunk-20-06-2008" the last one, for testing in joomla 1.5.6?

thanks, maeck

[Adam]

jupz, that's the latest version.

[Rina123]

I am running this latest version, seems to still be working ok. I noticed that it is still marked as being incompatible with 1.5 in my component list however. I do have legacy enabled, but wish to turn it off because I have heard that it slows the site loading time down, having it enabled. Yanc is the only component I have that has a little red cross by it - but I think it seems pretty compatible to me! Is there some way to make that little red cross turn into a green tick so I can turn off legacy and not break the component?

[Adam]

nope, you can't run YaNC without legacy mode.

[rsangion]

Hi Adam,

Did you happen to find any solution for the magic quotes?
I'm not sure if it's a related problem, but everytime I save a mailing, the content of the newsletter to be sent is changed. The slashes are also put on the quotes and some colors and styles are changed. For instance, red is converted to light green.
Even without WYSIWYG Editor this changes happen.

I'd really appreciate your help on this.

Thanks a lot!
Ricardo
