There was a post from a user asking about an error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function sqlite_escape_string() in /home/whitegau/_domains/durangedesign.com/public_html/thumbsup/thumbsup/core/thumbsup.php on line

I found out that if you have the following it tosses this error, why do you think that is?

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

Hi Geert,

I followed the instructions and still cant seem to get this to work.

I get the following:

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening ’/thumbsup/core/thumbsup.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/kipsfree/public_html/testing.php on line 4

Fatal error: Call to a member function setup() on a non-object in /home/kipsfree/public_html/testing.php on line 11

Any ideas on what could be wrong?

Thanks, Mandy

Hi GeertDD

How do i add variable as a name. I want to use ThumbsUp for dynamic content. I tried {$thumbsup->setup(’$pic’, ‘mini-thumbs’)>render()} and {$thumbsup>setup(’” . $pic . ”’, ‘mini-thumbs’)->render()} within a ECHO , where $pic is the name of a picture.

Thanks, Andretti

Ow jah trouwens,

Ik krijg ook alleen systeem knoppen, en niet die mooie knoppen die jij hebt. Ik weet niet waar in jouw code ik moet checken of de link naar je image wel goed staat.

Latess,

Hallo Geert

Ik neem aan dat je een nederlander bent dus doe ik dit in het nederlands. Ik heb jouw script pasgeleden gekocht, maar ik heb moeite om hem te implementeren op mijn website.

Echter dat is niet mijn vraag. Ik vroeg me eerder af of jij mij een stukje code kan sturen als voorbeeld van hoe je meerdere thumbs up icoontjes op 1 pagina kan krijgen. Je zou dat dan m.b.v. unieke ids moeten doen.

Ik hoop snel van je te horen.

Mvg,

Sadesh

I see that you have a tutorial on integrating Thumbs Up into Wordpress. Do you have a tutorial out there for integrating into Magento? I am hoping I can use this in my Magento site. Thanks.

Hi there,

I have a site that lists different types of Widgets.

Each page lists x10 different Widgets.

Question: Can I put an instance of the Thumbs Up/Down for EACH Widget? (ie. x10 Thumbs Up / Down per page)

Or is it only x1 Thumbs Up/Down per page?

Thanks, Jay.

Nevermind, I have it working.

I changed the CHMOD of the folder ‘database’ and not the file within this directory. If you do the folder it may not work.

Great script! very happy with it.

Hi,

I’m having a slight problem in getting the script to work.

As soon as this function is called:

<?php $thumbsup->setup('Name1', 'mini-thumbs')->render() ?>

No more html appears after it and no thumbs are appearing. It also is not appearing to display any error message. I think it may be somthing to do with my host settings as when I upload the demo straight to the server that does the same thing.

I have PHP5 enabled and CHMOD is 666 for the database folder and all its contents.

Please help, thanks.

GeertDD

Just like to say thanks for your help and answering everyones questions.

I’d recommend everyone to buy this script.

Hopefully Geert will bring out some more styles etc as I am more than happy to buy more…

I have been playing with this most of the day, and it does work on a straight .php file off the root. I am still trying to see whether I can get it to work on subdomains which seems a lot more tricky. Should in theory get it to work on .html via enabling in .htaccess http://php.about.com/od/advancedphp/p/html_php.htm (Although when I play with .htaccess it propogates and destroys the whole site!)

I’d suggest you just set up www.yourdomain.com/test.php file and as a proof of concept get it to work.

*Ooops, seems you have got it already to work.

For some reason I can’t login to the admin section. I changed the config file and followed the instructions but still no luck. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Hi I’m also having a problem with this script running on my server. I keep getting this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function sqlite_escape_string() in /home/xyz/public_html/thumbsup/core/thumbsup.php on line 264

I made sure SQLite is enabled:

PDO Driver for SQLite 3.x => enabled SQLite Library => 3.3.7 SQLite SQLite support => enabled SQLite Library => 2.8.17 SQLite Encoding => iso8859

I made sure PHP 5 is installed:

PHP 5 .2.12 (cli) (built: Feb 2 2010 15:47:56) Copyright© 1997-2009 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright© 1998-2009 Zend Technologies

I have no idea what to do now. I tested my files on a shared hosting server and everything worked good. So all my paths are correct.

Please help!

Thanks!

hi, i’ve a question:

does it only stores the IP to prevent an user to vote twice ? or do you have more sofisticated mechanism (such as cookies ? ...)

Thanks

Ok, I just set up a test .php file on the root and managed to get it functionally working. So probably best to disregard the above two comments unless you can easily say the issues arising across subdomains.

Anyway, is it definitely the case that this script cannot be imbedded into html files? only .php?

Also, I cannot for the life of me to get the images to show as just the basic system buttons show. earlier you have said its issues with the config file. Well I’ve done all sorts of path changes everything from the http long code through to using elements of the server path (home/xcf/public_html.. etc) still no joy. I am beginning to think it is in the coding and declarations so everything works, css etc)

However, there is one major issue and that is that in IE8 your demonstration page http://codecanyon.net/item/thumbsup/full_screen_preview/50411 does not show the buttons skinned, they just show the default system buttons, its ok in Opera but not IE8 !

Is that page working ok for everyone else in IE8 ??

Hmm… Hostgator.com can’t say for definite they have done all thats required to ensure that SQlite on their php5.2.9 install works. You have to get your website whitelisted on image resizer software so they have some sorts of security going on.

The only other angle I can think of is that I am doing the thumbs up web insert (icon presented) on a subdomain while the folder sits on the root. Nothing seems to indicate that it should be an issue as everything is called from the thumbsup folder on the root….

I am stumped…

Hmmm.. I am having some problems and I don’t know for definite if its the host or me.

I am trying to CHMOD the database folder to 666 but it reverts to 766 which seems a higher and more open level of read/write access so I think that isn’t the issue.

My host said that SQlite is supported as they have 5.2.9 PHP , could that could be different to having it enabled?

What is happening is that the code I place to insert the thumbs up is simply showing on the screen. (I’ve tried the echo code version and it doesn’t fix the problem).

Step 1 configer – thumsup folder (Incl the folder) On root hence ’/’ ok. Timezone and password key ok. Step 2 Upload – ok, folder on root. CHMOD database folder 766, database itself and .htaccess at 666. Step 3 Include – first php code has been placed at the top of the body below the end. (I’ve tried it all over the place, makes no difference). The other 2 lines of code are in the section The 1st of these path has been changed to direct to the /thumbsup/admin/javascript/jquery-1.3.2.min.js file. Hence all seems ok. The 2nd of these 2 lines does not require any change. Step 4 Create – Just a simple cut and past of the same code you have as an example placed in the page code should therefore bring up the required icon.

But it doesn’t > The actual display is just the code. in fact just this portion exactly setup(‘Name1’, ‘digg-thumbs’)>render() ?>

???? (The create isn’t inside any other open script section its just inserted in text. Just just maybe there isn’t sufficient closed brackets and it thinks its text.. don’t think so though).

do you think it can work with textpattern?

Hello,

We were looking at some sample implementation of thumbs up/down. In one of the websotes, we noticed that when you click the THUMBS UP , the THUMBS DOWN becomes (-) negative.

Let say THUMBS UP becomes 25, and THUMBS DOWN becomes -24.

Is this a bug?

Please let us know as this is an important feature that we would like to implement prior to purchasing it.

Thanks.

Hello,

Is there a way to edit the database?

Thanks.
