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:

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 just solved. Here another question. If I want to rename pligg_web_toolbar , I changed the name in .htaccess
RewriteRule ^toolbar/(\d+)/?$ modules/pligg_web_toolbar/toolbar.php?id=$1
to
RewriteRule ^toolbar/(\d+)/?$ modules/web_bar/toolbar.php?id=$1

it doesn't work, so where else should I change?
thanks in advance

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!

Found out how! If you open that file and check in the <span class="subtext"> section, change the section in () (the URL) to:

(<a href="/toolbar/{$link_id}" {if $open_in_new_window eq true} target="_blank"{/if}  {if $story_status neq "published"}rel="nofollow"{/if}>{$url_short}</a>)

So, how does this compare to the other toolbar? Which one is 'better'?

Do we really need two different toolbars?
