I just installed Elgg and I immediately created an account for myself and began inviting friends. I also made my account an admistrator. My question is how do I get rid of the news account? and do I loose any functionality by doing this?

Hey, I am new to Elgg.  I am working to set it up for a 5th grade class.  I set the "walled garden" parmeter so you can only see the login page until you login.

 Is there an easy way for me to remove the "access restriction" select box from all locations?  I basically want everything set to "Logged in Users".  But I don't want the users to have the option to change it.  I realize that with "walledgarden" set no one will be able to see anything.  I just try to simplfy things for the kids.

Team,

Could somebody suggest a scalable and solid elgg hosting provider? Right now I am using hostrocket.com a suggestion from Heath Moser. They are okay but may not meet the expectations for higly scalable production elgg community.

Also Daveinboston(http://elgg.org/daveyc/ ) suggested mediateple.net. Could some body comment on this or suggest any proven ISP for a scalable Elgg hosting?

Thank you

Hi,

NOTE: see second comment for a resolution! 

We're getting the following displayed at the top of the browser window when we click to edit a blog post:

This is still a small installation, but it seems to happen to every account but the admin account. Even making another account an admin user doesn't alter the behaviour. Any ideas?

Thanks, Jim 

I'm sure I saw something about this in a forum somewhere, but can't seem to find it again. Anyone any ideas?

I set: $CFG->defaultlocale = 'vi'; but field "value" of "language " = "en_US" when new user has created.

Please help me! thanks!

 I installed Elgg for the first time today - I had some difficulty but was able to get it up and make some theme changes but I am getting the following errors/notices upon attempting to add a blog entry:

Notice: Undefined index: field in /home/mysportz/public_html/mod/blog/lib/weblogs_posts_add.php on line 35

Notice: Undefined index: values in /home/mysportz/public_html/mod/blog/lib/weblogs_posts_add.php on line 36

Notice: Use of undefined constant get_html_button - assumed 'get_html_button' in /home/mysportz/public_html/mod/contenttoolbar/lib/contenttoolbar_init.php on line 32

Notice: Use of undefined constant get_js_button - assumed 'get_js_button' in /home/mysportz/public_html/mod/contenttoolbar/lib/contenttoolbar_init.php on line 33

 

Any suggestions on what to change are appreciated.  

When I user first comes to my site there is no css on the front page.

Once they login the css works and even if they log off. The css works on the login page the second time.  I have walled garden set.

 In both cases in the source there is:

link href="http://pk.mysite.com/_templates/css/Default_Template" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

I use firebug in firefox and it says there is not script rules in the file when the page is plain.

Thanks for any help. 

 

 

Site running new install of Elgg: http://www.anti-crap.com/blogs/members/

When a registered user logs in, it throws a 404 at http://www.anti-crap.com/blogs/members/blogs/members/ 

Removing the second instance of /blogs/members from the URL, the user is returned to http://www.anti-crap.com/blogs/members/ and is -tada- logged in.

How can I fix this? I've tried a all kinds of tweaks to config.php 

 Here are some elements from config.php:

 $CFG->wwwroot = 'http://www.anti-crap.com/blogs/members/';

 $CFG->dirroot = '/hsphere/local/home/anticrap/anti-crap.com/blogs/members/'; 

Thanks in advance for your insight into this issue...it's only been 12 hours and I'm getting nowhere.

Sorry if there are some newbie questions here but I have run out of ideas,  when I goto the http://localhost/egg/index.php I get the following error.

Error: Database connection failed.

It is possible that the database is overloaded or otherwise not running properly.

The site administrator should also check that the database details have been correctly specified in config.php

 I have checked and rechecked the config.php and all the MySql stuff looks correct.  I would appreciate any suggestions that could be offered on how to reolve this.

 

I have a question: Is it possible to run elgg on a website, where the mod_rewrite functionallity is disabled? Unfortunately my webspace provider doesn't allow the mod_rewrite. Actually I don't have the possibility to activate this on my own. Are there some workarounds to avoid this? Can anybody help? Thanks.

I've just installed Elgg this evening to http://www.emmadw.co.uk/elgg - but there a few problems, most of which I've solved, but ... 

1: The style sheets aren't working. I've not moved them, they're all where they should be (in mod/template/templates) & in the elggadmin page it's correctly saying /home/emmadw/public_html/elgg/mod/template/templates/

2: None of the links at the top are working, so, for example, http://www.emmadw.co.uk/elgg/news/weblog gives the error: 

The requested URL /public_html/elgg/mod/blog/index.php was not found on this server

I'm pretty sure that it's the .htaccess file that's causing the problem, but the Rewrite line seems to be right:

/public_html/elgg/

I've tried putting the /homes/emmadw/public_html/elgg/ in - though the example didn't have it, and I've tried putting the .htaccess file in the root of the public_html as well as in the root of elgg (i.e. where it is when you unzip it).

I'm sure it's going to be one of those things that I'll kick myself when I realise what I've done, but right now...

I recently installed elgg here (www.researchmeetup.com) and then I decided to install a version of it at home so I could do some development there. However I come across this strange problem. No graphics?

 

 

And here is my config file:

 

Config.txt  

If anyone has some ideas please let me know.

 

Thanks

How can I change the wording on the Community Sidebar headers?

I don't want 'Profile Owner', 'Blog', etc. Something like 'Community Owner', 'Community Blog', would be nice and make much better sense?

How can i find out what my 'physical path to the files' is? I tried: /html/somesubfolder/elgg/

hello everybody.

 

i would like to have icons displayed in the browser window to be only 50 x 50 pixels in size.

would anyone know, which css/php file to alter to achieve this?

I received this message in my elgg.org private message inbox (btw, the email notification should include the text of the message, I think). Probably it would be better to answer it in public.

"I followed the installation instruction in order to set up elgg on a server. I edited the config file to my best knowledge. Still a got a blank screen in the step of the installation when one needs to point to the file specified in the title of the post. The memory allowed to php is actually 16 megs which should be sufficient. Any other idea for the cause of the blank screen? Is it possible that phpinfo.php isn't edited properly?  "

So I had this problem recently, and I cannot be sure off course, but the problem was solved when I increased the memory limit to 32 Mb. I guess it depends on what plugins you have installed, but in any case, I think it would be wise to increase the setting in htaccess-dist.

Can anyone please look at my  'class.phpmailer.php' and tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I cannot add members.

Sincerely,

Jason Rogers

Hi, we're having trouble installing Elgg. We keep getting the following error:

Elgg error: Apache does not have mod_rewrite loaded. Please check your apache setup.

 However, this file is there in the Apache folders. Any ideas?

Carl.

I am not a developer but do have some experiance, but please keep it simple. thanks

Hi,

In our new Elgg installation, 'flag content' doesn't seem to be working. When you click on the 'flag' button, nothing seems to happen, and there's no report generated in the administrator's page. Is this happening to anybody else?

I discovered this exchange on the Developer Discussion blog from back in July:

http://elgg.org/developers/weblog/1023.html

This recommends adding

$function['init'][] = $CFG->dirroot . "units/admin/admin_actions.php";

to units/admin/main.php (which was apparently removed going from RC1 to the final version).

Does anybody know if there is any risk associated with this fix? (Sorry - I'm just starting to get my head around the Elgg code base and structure.) I've tested it slightly on a home trial installation, and it seems to work, but I haven't tested it enough to be confident

ADDED NOTE: I've run some quick tests on Eduspaces and this site as well, and there's no apparent action when I click on Flag content. I don't know if any reports show up in the administrator page.

Thanks, Jim 

Hi,

we are having problems to download plugins which are stored in Subversion repositories. Clicking on the download link just a blank page shows up - for example the Vanilla - Forum Plugin.

http://elgg.org/mod/plugins/plugin.php?id=42

or the Task List

http://elgg.org/mod/plugins/plugin.php?id=7 

Hi,

I have just installed elgg on my server and I am not seeing words! Actually it is also happening on here!

 I do not have any problems viewing other websites, any ideas? It only happens when logged in...

thanks!
