Admiror Frames Dev Talk and Suggestions

#1 Post by Bifford »

niiiice! :)

(I almost missed this 1.7 section! Can you move it up to priority No2 in the forums!?? :) )

Does this work with modules? For example my site has "latest five news items" and "next calendar events" but they are modules not html?? (I'm guessing not)

Is this your work? it looks great from the screenshots! :D

Minor graphical bug - in the Plugin Manager your description reads:

"Put content You need to be in a frame inside trigger code, for example: {AG}Your Content{/AG}."

this should of course read ".....{AF}Your Content{/AF}."

Having just installed and tried...it doesn't work? But that might be because of where I'm trying to use it. I have a module set up with Custom HTML and I'm using it within that and wondering if it's being broken because it is a module with custom html??

First of all, it is important to know does you module executes plugins :) If it does, you should put a priority level for AdmirorFrames to the "0:Order first" so that AdmirorFrames will process the content first before anyone else.

My suspect it that your module is not executing plugin.

Thanks for finding this. AdmirorFrames used AdmirorGallery as a starting point and some files still have some traces of our well known gallery ;)

Stoopid blank sponsor posts lol.

I changed the plugin to read 0: Order first, but it did not change anything initially. The module I am trying to load it within is your basic Joomla Module for Custom HTML, in position feature-A of a gantry template system.

however I did just work out the answer:

Over on the right hand side while editing that Module, in the "Basic Options" box you have to have the "Prepare Content" checkmark set to "yes" and then it will load the AF plugin! :D

You can see the results of this in the box that starts "Want to escape...." on the site at http://www.seaxeandsorcery.co.uk/newseaxe/



Also, I figured that was the case with the AG text...here's another one - on the right hand panel, bottom option - "Show Signiture" the help info once again says Admiror Gallery. :D

For colorize try without "#", just put {AF colorize=ff0000 }adfasdfasdf{/AF}

List of attributes:
  • width (100px, 50%, etc.)
    height (100px, 50%, etc.)
    bgcolor (0000ff, a80000, etc.)
    colorize (0000ff, a80000, etc.)
    ratio (10, 40, 90, etc.)
    horiAlign (left, center or middle)
    vertAlign (top, middle or bottom)
    template (default, white_border, round, etc.)
    float (left, right or none)
    margin (10, 14, 25, etc.)
    padding (10, 14, 25, etc.)

that IS how I was doing colorize! Tried it with the # and it made the border go all weird! lol

using {AF template=round colorize=555555} text {/AF} (the number is a random one to get it working currently!

Thanks for the list! :)

Rigghhhhhttttt.

back to colorize!

It *does* work.....in a manner of speaking. Using the format: "{AF template=round colorize=2299FF }" the item that goes light blue is the BORDER!!! *NOT* the text area!

and this does this if the colorize is before the template=round item also.

Please see http://www.seaxeandsorcery.co.uk/newseaxe/ where you will see the top text box is a nice blue colour :)

Personally I'd like to Keep this option, but also be able of course to colourise the box itself, and change the text colour too. This all needs multiple entries so Eg: OutlineColour= PaperColour= PenColour=

Hope this helps! :) (latest version btw)

Colorize is one of the filters available through GD. It's collects grayscale map from original image, and tone in selected color.

Currently there is only one image map for a border... so colorize affect the border shadows as well.

Adding "Pen Color" (font color) is simple... but I don't know how to separate OutlineColour= PaperColour=
