About LemonTwist:
Originally designed as a theme for Wordpress by
Chris Murphy, LemonTwist is now a free Pligg template released by Yankidank. The template is currently being developed for the next Pligg version (9.9.6). LemonTwist currently is designed to work with Pligg SVN revision 66 current as of August 29, 2008. Please DO NOT redistribute this template or any variation of it without getting my permission first.

For those who want to use a logo image with their site rather than a text name in the top left corner, please download the logo file attached to this thread. It contains a .psd file for the logo image, you should then read NOTES.txt for more information about how to use it.

NEW: When submitting a story, this template will help users choose tag keywords through an ajax auto-complete script. This script pulls keywords from a dictionary file stored at /templates/lemontwist/js/tag_data.js.

Differences from Yget:
LemonTwist does not fully support the five star voting method. I decided that it's not something I was interested in writing extra code to add in since very few Pliggers make use of voting method 2.
This template also doesn't display a sidebar on the Live and Submit pages. Instead it widens the content area to focus the user on the more important data (for the submit page) and give enough room for large amounts of data (in the case of Live). I also removed the sidebar recent comments list because I didn't find it to be very useful, but it shouldn't be too hard for a novice user to add it back in.

Version:
The current version is 0.005b.
Version numbers will be updated with each SVN revision commit that modifies this template.
To receive the most up to date version of this template please download it from the Pligg SVN under the /templates directory (not /trunk/templates).
It's brand new and still needs a couple final fixes (see below bug list), but I consider this template to be quite stable. I should have a rock solid version of this template ready for inclusion with 9.9.6.

If you want to run this with Pligg 9.9.5 you should take note of the following:

If you would like to contribute some help I would be glad to have the assistance. I would also greatly appreciate a donation using the Chipin widget associated with this forum thread. I invested a lot of time developing this template and I could use the money to help support me creating more free templates.

Known bugs:
  • Check page management, currently submission isn't redirecting to anything
  • Vote doesn't change to "voted" with ajax vote. Requires page refresh.
Support:
Limited support will be offered from myself once I finish this template. If enough users begin using this template I will create a new forum for bug reports and help requests.
Please check the README.txt and NOTES.txt files for more information about the LemonTwist template.

If you like this template you might also like:These templates take me a few solid days of work to complete, so please donate if you use this template. Otherwise I won't be able to continue producing more free Pligg templates.

Depends where you want to add the advertising.

Sidebar Ad:
Open: /templates/lemontwist/sidebar.tpl

Insert your ad code surrounded by literal tags:
Code:
{literal} <script type="text/javascript"> google_ad_client = "pub-1234567890"; google_ad_slot = "1234567890"; google_ad_width = 120; google_ad_height = 240; </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script>
{/literal}
Header Ad:
Open: /templates/lemontwist/header.tpl
Put banner code (wrapped in literal tags like above) above:
Code:
{checkActionsTpl location="tpl_banner_location_main"}

You need to clear your /templates_c directory when you make changes to the template file. Delete everything inside there then refresh the page. Please search before posting, because this is a common issue posted on the forum and not specific to this template/thread.

Oh, I just realized that sidebar-saved is a feature only built into the current SVN version, my bad. Remove the following code from sidebar.tpl and it should work fine with 9.9.5. I'll make note of this on the first post to this thread so others will have a quick solution.
Code:
{if $user_authenticated eq true}
{assign var=sidebar_module value="sidebar_saved"}{include file=$the_template_sidebar_modules."/wrapper.tpl"}
{/if}

Updated to version 005. Now includes a new ajax feature to auto-complete tags as users type in the tag field while submitting a story. Try it out on the Pligg demo. See NOTES.txt for additional info about changing the tag words.

Hello,

if I use this template I cannot pass submit step 3. After the click comes a message that the text or title is incomplete. But its not incomplete. Whats wrong?

My installation is ok. I have used your readme, this forum an the notes.txt.

Thank you.

Make sure that you have entered enough characters for the title and description area. You can set the minimum characters needed to go from step 2 to 3 in the admin area. Just to see if this is the cause try typing in more text in the fields to see if it still gives you the error and report back your findings. If it doesn't fix your problem, try Yget and let me know if the same problem exists.

Thats the problem. If I use yget there are no problems. Only with this template I have this problem with step 3. I set minimum characters to 10 but I have used more than 10.

Have you any more ideas?

many thanks

I use Pligg 9.9.5.

EDIT: After Step 2 is no green color on the site. Only the error message i can see.
I have downloaded your submit.php from the svn and now I can see the complete site but the problem (error message) isnt fixed.
Edit2: I have for a test changed the methode of submit to "get" and this is the link:

"... submit.php?category=2&tags=Bild+Zeitung&bodytext=D ie+Bild+Zeitung+ist+eine+Tageszeitung+mit+verschie densten+Themen.+Oft+sind+Themen+rund+um+Politik+un d+WIrtschaft+in+der+Bild+zu+finden&remLen=15&track back=&url=http://bild.de&phase=2&randkey=565062&id=14 ..."
I think its ok, but its works not. When I changed to "post" the I have the error message.

I just noticed that the title input field is missing from the latest SVN version of the Lemontwist template. I think I may have accidentally removed it while editing the tags field for a new feature for the last release. I'll look into this and probably provide a solution later today.
