News System

1. How to customize the template?
   Modify the *.tpl and *.css files in /display/basic/ directory.
2. Can BBCode be used in comments?
   Yes since version 1.3, a limit number of BBCode are allowed, including [b], [i], [u], [url] and [quote].
3. What's the URL of my RSS feed?
   http://yoursite/path/to/news/rss.php
4. The spell checker doesn't work?
   Use Firefox's built-in spell checker instead. It's much better.
5. I want to add a new locale for date and time?

   In /template/default/settings.tpl, create a new option for your preferred locale as follows

   <option value="lo_LO lo_LO.CHARSET-1 lo_LO.CHARSET-2 ...">
   	Locale Common Name
   </option>
   

   where lo_LO is the standard locale code which can be referred from here, and lo_LO.CHARSET-1 lo_LO.CHARSET-2 ... is the list of character sets supported by your host that can be referred from here

6. The script doesn't work with Unicode text?

   Try the following fix:

   • In /template/default/header.tpl and /template/default/preview.tpl, set the charset of <Content-Type> to be UTF-8.
   • In functions.php, look for function getZoneDate() around line 56 and replace the return line with this code

     return utf8_encode(
         gmstrftime($format, $time + $this->configs['zone']*3600));
      
     

Calendar

1. How to find my website's document root?
   Check the HTML source of calendar's index.php loaded on a web browser, and look for edit : function(id) in the <script> section. You'll see something like this

   var url = "/your/document/root/calendar/calendar_handle.php?edit=" + id;
    
   

   That means your document root is /your/document/root (without the trailing slash), assuming that you've put the script in a directory called calendar.
2. How to make the event window float on the left-hand side?

   <style type="text/css">
   #calendar .calendarDetail .calendarEvent {
       margin:0 0 0 -180px;
   }
   </style>
   

Image Gallery

1. How to customize the template?
   Modify the *.tpl and *.css files in /template/default/ directory.
2. There are no thumbnails at all?

   If you're sure that you have GD2 installed then it's because of wrong document root setting.

   A quick and dirty way to find your document root is to download the calendar script and refer this FAQ entry, and then set your document root manually as following

   <?php
   ...
   $gallery = new WingedGallery();
   ...
   $gallery->setDocumentRoot('/YOUR/DOCUMENT/ROOT');
   ...
   ?>
   

Gmail Checker

1. I've got a problem
   To get the debug log, right-click on 'About...' in the menu to open the debug window, and then select 'Check mail now'. Send me the debug log after removing your personal information, i.e. email addresses, message summary, password, etc.
2. Do I have to save my account's password locally?
   No, you don't. Just select Log in new account in the menu and enter details of the account you want to check mail.
