My readme file does not mention it. I just scanned it again and it's missing. I will try your suggestion though. :) </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/its-install-but-tells-me-to-edit-configphp#post-1263 Fri, 30 Sep 2011 04:59:43 +0000 krillmeed 1263@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Sorry Konstenlose (Living in Germany love the username LOL) His install instructions do say that:</p> <p>"After unzipping the files you downloaded, open up config.php. You need to edit your database information to allow WebCards to connect to your MySQL database. You need to enter the database host, your username and password and the name of the database. Each table can also be given a prefix to prevent conflicts with other programs. You can change this from the default of wc_ if you wish."</p> <p>So create a mysql database first, then enter its details into your config.php file. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/its-install-but-tells-me-to-edit-configphp#post-1262 Fri, 30 Sep 2011 04:54:15 +0000 kostenlose 1262@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I installed it on the root directory, but when I try to load up the install.php file it says:</p> <p>"Error!</p> <p>You have not entered your database information in config.php.

For the graphic side of things I use a template editor called artisteer. Probably no help to you but it would be the thing I would use to change the look of any templates.</p> <p><a href="http://www.artisteer.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.artisteer.com</a><br /> It might be worth checking out it is very cunning :-)</p> <p>Huge Ones<br /> Dave </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-1051 Sun, 12 Jun 2011 11:25:28 +0000 corbyboy 1051@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>It's slow progress at the moment. Using the Wordpress database is relatively simple. It's using the Wordpress templates that is difficult.

Is this in the works or is using an iFrame plugin like Pageview the only solution?<br /> thanks,<br /> Jeff </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-965 Tue, 12 Apr 2011 10:18:45 +0000 squeakydave 965@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I'm not a great fan of I-frames. They are not all that SEO friendly as I understand it.<br /> I'm also running WebCards off its own domain so I'd have to dismantle everything and pretty much start again and I would still have to try and match the templates. Ideally I'd like to hold off on the extreme stuff if there is any chance at all that you might have a true integrated solution. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-964 Mon, 11 Apr 2011 15:10:16 +0000 corbyboy 964@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>While this won't help with the database integration, I have always found an easy way to integrate WebCards into an existing template is to run it inside an iframe. Simple but often quite effective. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-963 Mon, 11 Apr 2011 11:58:56 +0000 squeakydave 963@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Many, MANY thanks for this Chris.

It shouldn't be too difficult to get working. I will let you know when I have something for you.</p> <p>Chris </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-951 Thu, 07 Apr 2011 18:00:59 +0000 squeakydave 951@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Hey Chris:<br /> Ideally I'd like to have Web cards running under a Wordpress install so I can easily add pages and have a blog all in one place and ideally styled by the same templates. So I guess that is both database and template. A tall order I know. Really, I'm looking for an integrated all in one solution be that Wordpress or Native WebCards so I can easily set up a site and then get on with creating cards:-)<br /> I'm an Illustrator and Animator and having to learn web design to do this myself, though interesting, is taking way longer than I imagined.</p> <p>Huge Regards<br /> Dave </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/blank-page-on-indexphp#post-918 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 11:19:36 +0000 corbyboy 918@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>The problem occurs when you are trying to select more random images from the database than actually exist. Say, for example, you have 5 images in the database but try to select 6 random images then this error will occur.</p> <p>As I said before I thought we had it sorted, but apparently not.</p> <p>Glad your installation is working now though. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/blank-page-on-indexphp#post-917 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 11:07:31 +0000 maneyact 917@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Hi - This fixed the problem when I added a few more images. I had 3 in there initially and I added another three. Still seems to be an issue but at least I know I can get around it.</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/blank-page-on-indexphp#post-914 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 13:18:52 +0000 corbyboy 914@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Have you added any cards to your WebCards installation? There was previously a bug that was caused by trying to pull random images from an empty database. I was under the impression this was solved now.</p> <p>Try adding about 6 and see if that makes a difference. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/blank-page-on-indexphp#post-913 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 11:49:26 +0000 maneyact 913@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I should have added this as well -&gt; <a href="http://maneyacts.com/webcard/" rel="nofollow">http://maneyacts.com/webcard/</a> </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/blank-page-on-indexphp#post-912 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 11:48:17 +0000 maneyact 912@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Hi - I've just purchased v2.6 and installed it. Everything seems to be operating OK in the admin side of things but when you try to simply go to the actual card index.php page it's blank. I had no problems with the free v1.3 that is on my web hosts auto installer, just this one.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>Cheers, Scott. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-861 Fri, 25 Feb 2011 00:11:30 +0000 corbyboy 861@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Hi Dave,</p> <p>Sorry for the delay getting back to you on this. It seemed to get missed off my to follow-up list.</p> <p>How exactly would you want them integrated? To run off the Wordpress template system? Share the user database? Or a combination of both of these?</p> <p>Chris </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/webcards-and-wordpress#post-843 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 14:31:34 +0000 squeakydave 843@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Now here is a bit of a fantasy request but does anyone know if it is possible to have a Webcards install running on a page of a Wordpress site and if so how. If it is easy I might attempt it. That would be a match made in heaven for me :-) </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/problem-with-removed-language#post-340 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 19:15:41 +0000 corbyboy 340@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I am sorry but we no longer support WebCards version 1.3 It is old and outdated and the new version has many more features and is a lot safer and more reliable.</p> <p>Please email me <a href="mailto:chris.charlton@gmail.com">chris.charlton@gmail.com</a> if you have any enquiries. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/problem-with-removed-language#post-337 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 03:01:49 +0000 blodefood 337@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I inadvertently removed the french langauge and I am trying to figure out how to rectify the situation because now the webcards page will not display without errors. (ver 1.3)</p> <p>I am new at this and will thank you for your patience. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/installation-destination#post-207 Mon, 07 Dec 2009 18:29:12 +0000 corbyboy 207@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Ah yes, I understand what you mean. You have done the right thing. Just upload the files to your root directory. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/installation-destination#post-206 Mon, 07 Dec 2009 14:58:23 +0000 squeakydave 206@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>Thanks.<br /> I just uploaded the files to the main html folder and it seemed to install fine. I runs fine too.....well when I deleted the default index.html.</p> <p>Right. I'm going to have a little lie down and then think about learning how to customise things:-) </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/installation-destination#post-205 Mon, 07 Dec 2009 14:48:21 +0000 krillmeed 205@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>As you want to run web cards as its own site, then you just upload the webcards folder to your server. As you have said your main html folder. Unless like me you want to call it say ecards; Then i just renamed the webcards folder to ecards. </p> http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/topic/installation-destination#post-204 Mon, 07 Dec 2009 13:00:35 +0000 squeakydave 204@http://www.mywebcards.net/forum/ <p>I've just got web cards and some web space and now am trying to Install it.<br /> The docs state:<br /> 'Upload all the files, including your edited config.php, to an appropriate folder on your server'<br /> I'm not sure what that folder would be. I want to run web cards as it's own site so do I just upload the files to the main web site html folder? </p>
