How would I install the software on my server. I use Dreamweaver for my web. Is this something I can do, or can you do it for me?<br /> Thanks,<br /> Harriet </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/other-websites-who-use-your-software#post-454 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 22:21:50 +0000 Harriet 454@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>How do I create email cards that the "very nice site" has with text that fades in one line at a time. And... how do I create animated e-cards?<br /> Thanks, Harriet </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/show-more-pictures-on-home-page#post-453 Fri, 12 Mar 2010 13:17:40 +0000 corbyboy 453@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>The layout is going to change in the next version. It will be vertically lined like krillmeed said. This is much more practical to use. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/link-to-my-site-home-page#post-452 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 08:14:31 +0000 MeMills 452@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Thanks you - all working fine now. I just had a small error in my html code!! </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/show-more-pictures-on-home-page#post-451 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 06:08:36 +0000 krillmeed 451@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>we think alike. corbyboy has told me that he is working on a new type of template were the images are vertical not horizontal and in 3 columns. As usual you can choose how many are in each column. That way the page is filled without stretching it. I have no idea on a release date, but it is on his list. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/link-to-my-site-home-page#post-450 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:00:51 +0000 corbyboy 450@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I presume you would want the link in the top navigation bar to fit in with the style of the page?</p> <p>If so open up templates/webcards-fresh/template.html and locate the following section of text:</p> <p><code>&lt;a href=&quot;{{url}}&quot; title=&quot;||send_a_webcard||&quot;&gt;||send_a_webcard||&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href=&quot;{{pickup_link}}&quot; title=&quot;||pickup_a_webcard||&quot;&gt;||pickup_a_webcard||&lt;/a&gt;</code></p> <p>You can add your link around this section.</p> <p>Let me know if you need any more help. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/link-to-my-site-home-page#post-449 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 17:17:38 +0000 MeMills 449@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I've added webcards functionality to an existing site which also sells pictures and cards. What I'd like to do is to add a link to my site's home page from the webcards so people who pick up a webcard can go there easily. Is this possible and any clues on how to do it? </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/show-more-pictures-on-home-page#post-448 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 12:48:28 +0000 davidr 448@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I would like to show more pictures on my home page but when I increase the number of pictures in the ACP it just shows them all in one row , which looks stupid if I set it at 10 pictures. Why doesn't it show them in 2 rows of 5 instead of one row of 10 ? </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/editing-a-card-greeting-after-preview#post-447 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 12:12:00 +0000 squeakydave 447@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Thanks Chris. That was the problem. All sorted now :-)<br /> Dave </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/suggested-dimensions-for-stams-and-file-size-for-sound#post-446 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:38:08 +0000 corbyboy 446@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>MIDIs and mp3s are file formats meant for different purposes. You can't stream MIDIs in the same way that you can mp3s and you can never have anything other than a basic tune with a MIDI file. It's unlikely that MIDI files will be supported in the future. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/editing-a-card-greeting-after-preview#post-445 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:25:49 +0000 corbyboy 445@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>This sounds like another problem caused by using old template files. The issue was fixed in WebCards version 2.3.</p> <p>Check which version of preview_card.html you have in your templates folder. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/editing-a-card-greeting-after-preview#post-444 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:57:39 +0000 squeakydave 444@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Currently if I preview a card and realize a mistake if I return to edit the card all fields are blank and I have to start again. It would be better if the fields retained their contents.</p> <p>Huge Regards<br /> Dave </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/paypal-paymnet#post-443 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 09:51:31 +0000 squeakydave 443@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I wondered what the the 'Free' cards on the demo where all about :-) </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/suggested-dimensions-for-stams-and-file-size-for-sound#post-442 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 20:50:19 +0000 GrannyEstee 442@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I converter some of my midis into mp3s, but the difference in file size is enormous. Is it impossible to use midis instead? Sorry for my ignorance. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/paypal-paymnet#post-441 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 20:48:14 +0000 GrannyEstee 441@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Thank you, Corbyboy. I can't wait for the next version. Sounds terrific! </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/paypal-paymnet#post-440 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 10:13:50 +0000 corbyboy 440@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>That makes sense and I can add this. The next version will have a lot more flexibility in terms of payments. You will be able to specify different costs for different cards, although we will still use the idea of "credits" rather than currency. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/suggested-dimensions-for-stams-and-file-size-for-sound#post-439 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 10:08:45 +0000 corbyboy 439@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Stamps can be any size, but it will look much neater if you make all the stamps the same size.</p> <p>As krillmeed mentioned, there is no size restriction on mp3 files, but larger files will stream so your users shouldn;t notice any delay. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/suggested-dimensions-for-stams-and-file-size-for-sound#post-438 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 17:10:39 +0000 GrannyEstee 438@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Thank you so much for the info. I will try both suggestions! </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/suggested-dimensions-for-stams-and-file-size-for-sound#post-437 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 06:21:18 +0000 krillmeed 437@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>The default stamp sizes are 64 x 64 But you can make them larger, as for the mp3 sizes, the skies the limits, remember the larger they are the longer they take to play normally: I use midi files which i convert to mp3 since they tend to be smaller, and normally no copyright problems. They are between 1 and 2 MB. As i said, there are no limits to either. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/paypal-paymnet#post-436 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 00:52:18 +0000 GrannyEstee 436@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Would it be possible to change the Paypal button, so that a person can pay for the amount of cards they actually want to send. For instance, if I decide to charge $2 per car, and they want to send three cards in one session, once they get to the paypal window, they can change the quantity, the amount would already be set to $2, and they would be billed for $6. </p> <p>Clear as mud. I had some people complaint that they only want to pay for the amount of cards they send in one session. </p> <p>Sorry to be asking so many questions, I just figure... Give the customer what they want! And yes, I agree, our customers can be a pain in the Caracas! LOL.</p> <p>Granny </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/suggested-dimensions-for-stams-and-file-size-for-sound#post-435 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 00:00:46 +0000 GrannyEstee 435@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I looked for a post on this subjects but could not find one. I want to design stamps, but have no idea what size they should be. Same as with the mp3 files. </p> <p>Thank you for your help. </p> <p>Granny </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/emoticons-not-showing-when-composing-a-card#post-434 Thu, 04 Mar 2010 23:01:27 +0000 squeakydave 434@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Just to share the results of this with the community. It turns out that the templates were updated in the last release and my customized templates were out of date. The solution was to copy the &lt;head&gt; tags from the new template.html into my customized one. Everything now works and my customizations were unaffected.<br /> Many thanks to Chris for the speedy resolution.</p> <p>Huge regards<br /> Dave </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/deleting-multiple-cards#post-433 Thu, 04 Mar 2010 22:57:29 +0000 squeakydave 433@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Cheers Chris.

I started using capcha and haven't had the problem again. However I would like to delete the 100 or so sent cards but it seems like I can only do it one at a time. In future versions it would be pretty handy to be able to delete multiple cards at the same time. Maybe via check boxes?</p> <p>Huge Regards<br /> Dave </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/customizing-the-emails#post-430 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 21:06:54 +0000 squeakydave 430@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Ideally I'd like an all singing and dancing template thingy like mail Chimp but The Header and Footer would be a great help :-) </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/turn-on-stamps#post-429 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 21:02:04 +0000 squeakydave 429@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Cheers Chris! </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/emoticons-not-showing-when-composing-a-card#post-428 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 19:24:51 +0000 corbyboy 428@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>We can handle this from the support ticket now. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/turn-on-stamps#post-427 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 19:23:29 +0000 corbyboy 427@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I have had a look at the template file you are using and it doesn't have the stamp section in render_card.html. Check you have the most up-to-date archive downloaded and upload render_card.html. It won't affect your template layout at all. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/customizing-the-emails#post-426 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 19:20:53 +0000 corbyboy 426@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>You can edit the email text through the language files.</p> <p>I have always wanted to separate the email content from the language file, but it helps to keep everything organised and together.</p> <p>You can't currently specify a global email header or footer but this shouldn't be too difficult to add if you want it. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/customizing-the-emails#post-425 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 15:41:38 +0000 squeakydave 425@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Is there a way we can do this.
