But, our developer who created that plugin is on vacation, so unfortunately you may have to wait a couple of weeks before this can get fully investigated. </p> <p>Sheila </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-520 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 14:38:50 +0000 tmikk 520@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>Hello, I am still experiencing an error with the contribution plugin. When someone uploads a story or a file and they agree to the consent form, the next page cannot be found The URL displayed becomes <a href="http://example.dns.name/contribution/contribution/thankyou." rel="nofollow">http://example.dns.name/contribution/contribution/thankyou.</a> The line that was causing problems as noted in the previous thread add.php file in my case is following:</p> <p>var uri = "&lt;?php echo uri('contribution/'); ?&gt;" + partial; .</p> <p>The contribution plugin works correctly if I access the site by example.dns.name/omeka . </p> <p>How can I fix the contribution plugin to work with a root URL?</p> <p>Thank you,<br /> Tonu </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-510 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 18:59:29 +0000 tmikk 510@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>Here is a bit more information about the problem.</p> <p>The error #1 appears to have something to do with me serving the site from root url. If I change the site to example/omeka, then adding a story works fine.</p> <p>The error #2 had to do with me not having write enabled directories inside the archive directory. Once I write enabled the directories, I have been able to add an image without an error.</p> <p>It would be nice if the contribute plugin would work with the root URL site. </p> <p>Thank you,<br /> Tonu </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-509 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 15:01:29 +0000 tmikk 509@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>I am experiencing the same problem :-(. I tried to modify the add.php file as earlier posts mention, but it has not helped. As far as I can see, it appears to have the correct URL with just /contribute .</p> <p>I have Omeka 9.2.2 with the plugin downloaded today. My Omeka install is at <a href="http://omekastage.dmc.umn.edu" rel="nofollow">http://omekastage.dmc.umn.edu</a> .</p> <p>I have two problems.<br /> 1. When a story is contributed, then the thank you page URL is contribute/contribute/thankyou . Fixing it manually to contribute/thankyou will display the correct page.</p> <p>2. When a image is selected as contribution type, then I get an error after submission that Omeka has experienced an error.</p> <p>Thank you for all your help!</p> <p>Tonu </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/captcha-for-contribution#post-495 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 14:02:27 +0000 SheilaBrennan 495@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>Hi Brent, </p> <p>Yes, it is a great idea. We are having the same problem in HDMB, and as a result someone is already working on creating a Re-Captcha plugin to work with the form. I can't wait!</p> <p>As always, we'll let everyone know once it's ready for release. </p> <p>Sheila </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/captcha-for-contribution#post-494 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 13:01:14 +0000 bjesiek 494@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>Is anyone working on a CAPTCHA feature for the Contribution module? We typically see 2-10 spurious entries a day, which requires more regular maintenance than we would like. I've considered writing my own mod, but probably won't have time for a month or so. In the meantime I thought it would be worth asking the community.</p> <p>P.S. The April 16 Archive (<a href="http://april16archive.org/">http://april16archive.org/</a>) is finally redesigned and redeployed on the newest version of Omeka.

When trying to fix the Thank you page, I deleted a "/" that was needed on accident and placed it back where it belongs.

When I change the Contribution type in IE, it does not change the input panel at all.

But, haven't located the problem with the contribute page with switching between submition types. Sadly, our Omeka installation is on a local server set up behind our campus's firewall on a subnet. </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-486 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 03:15:04 +0000 DaveLester 486@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>Is it possible to share a link to your Omeka installation so I could see exactly what's going on? </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-484 Thu, 12 Jun 2008 18:56:30 +0000 BGFalcon 484@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>We are using the newest version of Omeka and the newest version of Contribution, but are still having the errors mentioned previously in this topic. On our screen it looks as if it is adding the header in the middle of the page when switching between story and file types. It is also directing to the wrong url for the thank you page. I have checked and the add.php file does not have the extra /contributions. </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/not-able-to-view-uploaded-files#post-410 Thu, 08 May 2008 15:11:09 +0000 KrisKelly 410@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>You should change permissions on the application/logs/errors.log file in the same way that you originally did that with the archive/ directory when installing omeka. It would be something along the lines of <code>chmod 775 application/logs/errors.log</code> on the commandline, from within your omeka installation. Your server administrator may recommend something different, but something like that should work.</p> <p>While you're at it, make sure <code>debug.exceptions = true</code> in your application/config/config.ini file. Those two things will let you see errors from Omeka. Then let me know what you see. </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/not-able-to-view-uploaded-files#post-407 Sun, 04 May 2008 20:42:17 +0000 dawit 407@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>hi,</p> <p>sorry for replying so late, I had other engagements and been really busy,</p> <p>this is what is shown in the address bar when I see the 404 page, "http://ethioarchive.com/admin/items/show/15". </p> <p>I see this when I click on uploaded items in order to view them. </p> <p>sorry I could not activate the error logging as I do not know what to change in the application/logs/errors.log in order to change the permission. </p> <p>Thanks </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-398 Mon, 28 Apr 2008 13:39:48 +0000 bjesiek 398@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>Dave (and dawit), fantastic work - the updated plug-in seems to be working fine for us now, too.

I didn't fully understand your response until I saw the additional contribution/ was actually added in the source code.

I just tested it now with Omeka core 0.9.1.1 and the newest Contribute (0.9.0). When I submit an object of type "Story" it seems to work okay. But as soon as I switch Story to another type (Image, etc.), the "Your Story" field disappears and is replaced with a block showing a Search screen and "Oops!" page not found. It's like the system is not finding the block of code/HTML needed to display the appropriate field and button to let users browse for and upload a file. Any ideas?</p> <p>Keep up the good work, and thanks! </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/not-able-to-view-uploaded-files#post-309 Fri, 04 Apr 2008 16:45:31 +0000 KrisKelly 309@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>What is the URL in your address bar when you see that 404 page? Is it a link that you click on that takes you to that 404 error, or is it when you submit the form? Also, that page sometimes shows up when Omeka has some sort of internal error, so you should <a href="http://omeka.org/codex/Retrieving_error_messages">activate error logging</a> and then post any errors that you get. </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/not-able-to-view-uploaded-files#post-305 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 14:22:50 +0000 dawit 305@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>I can see the files in the 'archive' directory through my c-panel.

If you have not set proper permissions on the 'archive' directory then the files wouldn't have uploaded properly. This gives a proper error message within the administrative interface, but it might not be apparent when uploading from the contribution plugin. </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/not-able-to-view-uploaded-files#post-286 Thu, 27 Mar 2008 22:10:31 +0000 dawit 286@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>hi, </p> <p>I have got a problem with the 'contribution' plugin, it allows me to upload files and documents but it won't allow me to view it, when I make contributions 'public' I get to see the description of the uploaded file and not able to view the file itself. my server admin has PHP 5.2 and ImageMagick installed on a Linux server. am I missing any thing to not be able to view the uploaded files? you can check it out at ethioarchive.com</p> <p>thanks </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-272 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 15:49:01 +0000 dawit 272@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>it allows me to upload files and documents but it won't allow me to view it, when I make contributions 'public' I get to see the description of the uploaded file and not able to view the file itself. my server admin has PHP 5.2 and ImageMagick installed on a Linux server. am I missing any thing to not be able to view the uploaded files? </p> http://omeka.org/forums/topic/getting-the-contribution-plugin-to-work#post-269 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 14:27:27 +0000 dawit 269@http://omeka.org/forums/ <p>problem solved!
