Hi all,

the long waited Pligg Web Toolbar Module 1.0 is here.

It is compatible with Pligg CMS 1.0.1



About the Pligg Web Toolbar Module
This module will add a toolbar to external links so that users don't have to leave your site to read stories. The toolbar includes a vote count, comment count, title and social bookmarking icons. This is a similar to Digg.com's toolbar that they use for external links.

Installation Instructions
  1. Download the attached Pligg Web Toolbar 1.0.zip file and extract it.
  2. Copy upload_files/toolbar.php to the document root of your pligg website
  3. Copy upload_files/modules/pligg_web_toolbar folder to your DOCUMENT_ROOT/modules/
  4. If you want to change your pligg logo, you can change it. Logo is located here -> new_files/modules/pligg_web_toolbar/images/logo.gif
  5. Login to Admin > Modules and Search for "Pligg Web toolbar" text. Click the Install link for installing the web toolbar.
  6. Go to Pligg Web Toolbar Settings and enable it.
  7. Go to your pligg site, go the story summary page, clicking on it will open the toolbar with the ur
If you are using URL Method 2 add this line to your .htaccess:
Code:
RewriteRule ^toolbar/(\d+)/?$ modules/pligg_web_toolbar/toolbar.php?id=$1
Known Bugs
  1. Disabling the module from the module settings page in the Admin panel doesn't actually disable the toolbar. The feature should probably just be removed since users can disable the module from the module settings page.
  2. Stories that do not have a URL (left blank or as http:// in submit step 1) result in an error popup.
  3. A working vote button needs added so users can vote from the toolbar page
  4. Toolbar story and comment links have /toolbar in them and do not give the SEO URL when using URL Method 2.

I think the installation instructions need to be updated.
The zip file doesn't create a pligg_web_toolbar folder when the files are extracted.
Took me several minutes to make sure I wasn't missing or overlooking something.



Other than that, it's working great for me. Thanks!

At the moment it works like a charm when you visit the {url} from within a story page.

If I edit link_summary.tpl and change {story_url} to {url}, it links directly to the article - but the toolbar doesn't appear.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
I would also like to know

Your installation instructions say to put toolbar.php in the document root for the site, but it actually goes in the pligg_web_toolbar folder which is missing from the download.

Great module though, I'm thinking it will be particularly helpful in making more of search engine traffic which comes to specific story pages and would otherwise leave the site with one click and not come back. I'm looking forwards to finding out if it does.

Just playing around and I noticed a problem.

I am using seo urls, and the comment link from the toolbar doesn't work. It goes to a url that looks like this:
Share A Bargain |
(which just says the page your looking for doesn't exist), when it should be this: HostGator coupon code | Share A Bargain
without the story.php?title=

The same thing happens if you click on the story title.

You can fix this by deleting story.php?title= from lines 20 and 21 of pligg_web_toolbar.tpl

Yes, I do believe that it will work with 1.0.3b, I have it running on 1.0.3. Try installing it, if you have any questions, post it here.
