joel | Subject: Admin courses table HTML bug in 1.4.3 |  |
| Replace lines 115 to 116 with: echo '<td class="row1"><small>'; if ($row['tracking']) { echo _AT($row['tracking']); } echo '</small></td>'; The bug was created by 1.4.2 which unset the Tracking field in the database to a value other than the preset enumerated values of "on" or "off", as a result the columns on the courses.php page in the admin page in 1.4.3 will be broken. You could also fix it by setting the Tracking option to either on or off for each of the courses as an Admin. Posted: 2005-02-07 11:00:02 | ||

| gnif | Subject: Follow Up -- Error | |
| Hello Greg, Thanks for the info. After changing the code with what you provided, the \"Courses\" table heading under Courses admin is like this (very wide on the webpage): Title Order by Title Ascending Order by Title Descending Instructor Order by Instructor Ascending Order by Instructor Descending Access Order by Access Ascending Order by Access Descending Category Created [ create_date_ascending ] [ create_date_descending ] Tracking Order by Tracking Ascending Order by Tracking Descending Also, now when I click on a course to edit its properties, it shows a blank page and I am logged out (before, I had to edit the properties to get this error). I could provide admin login details, please just tell me how I can submit that info privately. Thank you. Sincerely, Sammy Posted: 2005-02-13 13:33:19 | ||

| greg | Subject: Are you using 1.4.3 themes | |
| Have you upgraded your themes (probably not given the problems you have described). Though you may be able to get around 1.4.3 using 1.4.2 themes, you do need to upgrade them. Reinstall and see: www.atutor.ca/view/7/3590/1.html See the admin demo to see how things are supposed to work: www.atutor.ca/atutor/demo.php Posted: 2005-02-13 14:20:23 | ||

| gnif | Subject: same problem with demo | |
| I am using Clean Blue download from ATutor for 1.4.3 with a modified header image. Also, when I did access the ATutor.ca DEMO administration account, and when updating the course properties, the same problem occurred: a white blank page and logged off. Posted: 2005-02-13 14:41:49 | ||

| greg | Subject: Register Globals off | |
| You'll need to turn the register_global setting to off in php.ini. Or, you can create a ".htaccess" file and place it in the root directory of your ATutor installation with the following line in it. php_flag register_globals off This has been fixed for the next release, so register_globals can be on or off. For 1.4.3 it needs to be off. Posted: 2005-02-14 10:52:43 | ||

| gnif | Subject: register_globals = off, what directories? | |
| Thanks! I found a bug. I told my system admin about this issue, and they said: "You will need to create a php.ini file in the directory, where you need to turn the register_globals variable off, and place the following line in this file: register_globals = off Please note that the php.ini files does not have a recursive effect, which means that you will have to place this file in each directory, where you need the variable off." So, what directories need to have this feature off, so that I may place the php.ini in each folder? Thank you. Posted: 2005-02-14 14:50:52 | ||

| greg | Subject: Use .htaccess | |
| You should create a file called ".htaccess" (with the leading dot) which contains the following line. Place the file in the root directory of ATutor. php_flag register_globals off Register global should always be turned off for security reasons. You do not need to create a php.ini file.

| seans888 | Subject: cannot switch the tracker on | |
| If you are asking for help, provide lots of detail so problems can be reproduced. Things to describe: operating system - windows xp version of ATutor - 1.4.3 versions of php - 4.3.9 version of mysq l - 4.0.21 webserver & version - apache 2 On the course properties, when you set the tracking to on and then submit, a blank page comes up. Then when you try the tracking under student account, it doesn't work and it request for you to contact your system admin. Once you go back to course properties as system admin, the tracking is still set to off. Posted: 2005-04-15 06:22:56 | ||
