Greetings! First off, I just want to say that I am completely in love with Omeka, this is what I've been waiting to find for years! I have one Omeka site up and running now, www.DerivedEnergy.com, but I plan to make at least 4 other sites in the very near future! Thank you thank you thank you to everyone that has worked so hard on the creation of this system!
So at the moment, I am trying to trick DeriverEnergy.com out with all types of cool plugins, and I'm having lots of trouble getting quite a few of them to work. First off, I am running Omeka 2.1.3, using the "Griddy" theme, and so far I AM able to run the following plugins without any trouble:
Atom Output
Bagit
COinS
Collection Tree
Comments
Contribution
Download Logger
Dropbox
Dublin Core Extended
HTML5 Media
Image Resize
IntenseDabate Comments
Item Order
Item Relations
Library of Congress Subject Headlings
MediaRSS plugin for the Cooliris Image Viewer
My Omeka
OAI-PMH Harvester
OAI-PMH Repository
SimpleContactForm
SimplePages
Simple Vocab
Social Bookmarking
WikiCite for Omeka
However I AM NOT able to run any of the following, I can't get any version of any of the plugins listed below to work. They will show up on the list on plugins, yes, but you can't activate them, often telling me I need a lower version of Omeka than the one I'm currently running.:
Add Item - Won't work, says I need a lower version of Omeka than the one I'm running
Cataloge Search - Won't work, not one version of it.
DerivitiveImages - Won't work.
HideElements - Won't work.
NeatlineTime - Won't install
PBCore Element - Set won't install
Record Relations - Won't install
Search by metadata - Won't install
*ZoomIt - not working, but installed and running, just not functional.
The Following WILL install, but cause serious problems to the site once activated.:
Commenting - This is one that I most want to use! It installs, but when activated, it breaks the site if I try and look at items.. And I get this message:
"Omeka has encountered an error. To learn how to see more detailed information about this error, see the Omeka Codex page on retrieving error messages." I did follow the provided link, but I didn't think what I found there was connected to the problems I was encountering.
Scripto - Also dying to use this, but once activated, I get this message: "Omeka has encountered an error.To learn how to see more detailed information about this error, see the Omeka Codex page on retrieving error messages."
Record Relations/UserProfiles - Neither one will install properly, but say I need to be using at least Omeka 2.0, when I am in fact running higher than that... Would very much love to use these both as well!
I truly am sorry for such a long post, thanks in advance for any and all suggestion on how to fix any of these issues, Scripto and Commenting and User Profiles are the ones I would most like help with.
Thanks very much everyone!
All the best,
Oldphan
