Running on Vanilla Win 2003 server with WAMP installed. Thanks for pointing in line of php.ini Changed to this but still the same: [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP = smtp.redstone4schools.co.uk smtp_port = 25 ; For Win32 only. sendmail_from = [email protected]

Just done a php script. User types in the details and when presses send - sends an email to me. It gets to the end of the script but the email never arrives? Code below: <?php $name = $_REQUEST['name'] ; $room = $_REQUEST['room'] ; $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ; mail( "[email protected]", "Message from Intranet", $message, "From: $name" ); header( "Location: http://2003server:84" ); ?> Thanks

No, it allows registered users to view it too

Anyone know if this is possible? I would like to have a module not appear on the home page once a user has logged in. IE Public users only and not registered.

Another newbie question !! Is there a way to have a module appear on JUST the public home page and when staff login it not be there? I've found the public/registered publish settings but would like public only? Thanks

No, just copied and pasted the file into the modules folder. Just looked at the install on the joomla back end, what package file am I looking for? The files in the main folder are php and xml

Ok. I've downloaded magpieRSS module and inserted the whole folder into the Joomla Module directory. I've created a new module based on the magpierss but it doesn't display on any template. Do we have to add it to anywhere else? Thanks

Hi, I'm wanting to put Google Search into my Joomla on one of the right hand modules. When I add the code - it automatically removed the section of it. I don't want AJAX so the results are shown in the Joomla page itself, and I don't want it to search my site. I've looked through the extensions on the Joomla site but wasn't sure which would be best. Thanks Karl

I've just downloaded a template I would like but after applying the page gives lots of errors (see image). Can't seem to find in the admin section how to turn off the slide show. Any ideas how to remove the Chinese writing? Thanks

Hi, Just had my PDP and been told to look at some avaliable courses. I have got a degree in Computer Systems and Networks and done the CCNA Academy. Is MCSE (or the new name for it) the way forward? We are running Win XP / 2003. Would love to do 2008 but doubt we'll get that here for a fair few years !! I'm in Yorkshire so preferably something that area would be great. Not too keen on home study so would rather it be practical based. Thanks

Hi, Tried searching on here but no found the right answers. Just installed Joomla to use as an intranet and would like the BBC Education news feed on the main page. How do I do it ? ! I've tried the news feed setup but using the bbc url it comes up with an error saying it can't find ti feed. Whats the difference between the url in the news feed manager and the url in Feed display in Modules? Thanks

Yep, had this before. Turned out it was another school using the same ISP that had kept spamming Google ! http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/27792-google.html Rectified itself after a day.

Anyone offer any more help ?

Hi, I'm trying to install Joomla on a Windows 2003 server running IIS6, PHP and mysql. When I do the initial Joomla install there is a NO next to the MySql support. MySQL is installed and you can access the admin section. I have added the ;php environmental variable to the server and rebooted but still the same. Any ideas? THanks

Yeah, just restarted it as well but still the same

OK, thanks. She has now created an article on the school - big OUCH !! How do we get her blocked from editing our article ?? Thanks

I'm living in a shared ownership apartment. As i'm single and at the time could only get a mortgage 4x my salary it seemed sensible. Basically doing 50-50 so pay mortgage each month and rent each month. Must better than just renting as some of the apartment is mine. Just check on the conditions if you come to selling as you usually have to sell your half back to the housing assocation.

Thanks. Yeah we added a section on some positives about the school. Then it was actually her who added a section about Ofsted saying how the school had changed policies etc. The said event was actually in the 70's !!

Ok. This women is retired and was a librarian. She has no links to the school but found some bad information in the press (which is true) but its bad publicity for the school. Our worry is that if we create an article on the school, she will then add that information to it - which we definitely don't want. We've been in contact with her about the current article and her argument is that as the info is correct, she is acting in the public interest to provide the information

Without going into detail, someone has created a wikipedia page on the village our school is in. She has added a few sentences about the school, which we are not happy about. We have removed them but she keeps inserting them. As our school doens't have its own wikipedia site, if we were to create one, are we then the owner of the article and we can stop any additions she makes?

My helpdesk is quite quiet at the moment. If its a job to do I will log it on the helpdesk. Other than that it just log everything I do in a day inc the little things.

Ok, enabled the extension in php.ini but Joomla still showing NO

PHPinfo says nothing about mysql - screen below. This is mysql section of php.ini [MySQL] ; Allow or prevent persistent links. mysql.allow_persistent = On ; Maximum number of persistent links. -1 means no limit. mysql.max_persistent = -1 ; Maximum number of links (persistent + non-persistent). -1 means no limit. mysql.max_links = -1 ; Default port number for mysql_connect(). If unset, mysql_connect() will use ; the $MYSQL_TCP_PORT or the mysql-tcp entry in /etc/services or the ; compile-time value defined MYSQL_PORT (in that order). Win32 will only look ; at MYSQL_PORT. mysql.default_port =3306 ; Default socket name for local MySQL connects. If empty, uses the built-in ; MySQL defaults. mysql.default_socket = ; Default host for mysql_connect() (doesn't apply in safe mode). mysql.default_host =localhost ; Default user for mysql_connect() (doesn't apply in safe mode). mysql.default_user =root ; Default password for mysql_connect() (doesn't apply in safe mode). ; Note that this is generally a *bad* idea to store passwords in this file. ; *Any* user with PHP access can run 'echo get_cfg_var("mysql.default_password") ; and reveal this password! And of course, any users with read access to this ; file will be able to reveal the password as well. mysql.default_password =******** ; Maximum time (in seconds) for connect timeout. -1 means no limit mysql.connect_timeout = 60 ; Trace mode. When trace_mode is active (=On), warnings for table/index scans and ; SQL-Errors will be displayed. mysql.trace_mode = Off

Thanks Tom. Got to going now with no errors on installation - can connect via admintools to database. Just struggling with Joomla setup now as it says there is no sql !!
