[3.2.9-3.3.x][RC] Glossary 3.0.20

[pierredu]

Check in the store folder. Do you have an .htaccess file with deny from all ?
Delete it.

[motte]

i delete the .htaccaess and know it worked perfect. But do i need the .htaccess for something in the Folder /store?

[3Di]

Sure, the store folder can contain important data like database backup.

Pictures should be stored in the ROOT/images folder from where those can be read.

[motte]

OK, so the EXT must be change to these imagedirectory .... /images/lmdi right??

Hi Marco,

I was told in the validation process of this extension that all uploads of an extension should go in the store/vendor/ext folder.

If there is another rule, I'll change my code.

On the other hand, the backup files stored in the store folder are there (and not automatically downloaded) to protect the board against rogue admins who gain access the ACP (been there, done that) and try to backup the database to access the data (they normally would need a FTP access, with another security layer, which doesn't crash at the same time as the ACP access).

I'm really curious about this point.

[3Di]

I do not know the extension but surely in 'images/lmdi/gloss/'.

@Pier
you can't read images from store since the .htaccess has to be kept there, it is like removing the htaccess from the files folder, that's a no-no.

I am quite sure the images folder can be used for images uploads if are not copies of attachments, just ask the Team and you will know.

[pierredu]

I just did it in the CDB validation thread.
We'll know.

[pierredu]

Paul told me that I should use the images folder, the same way, to avoid deleting the .htaccesss file in the store folder.
I'll code the change and update the repo.

[eunaumtenhoid]

In this new version is it possible to create more than one glossary at a time?

[pierredu]

I didn't work on this aspect.
This would suppose a whole reorganisation of the code and I don't have the time to begin such a project.

[motte]

@pierredu fpr phpBB3.3 the /config/tables.yml Chage to:

Code: Select all

parameters:
    lmdi.gloss.tables.glossary: '%core.table_prefix%glossary'

[pierredu]

It seems that the checking of yml files is not very strict for tables.yml. I'll do it in next version.
Thanks anyway for the pointer.

[pierredu]

I'll code the change and update the repo.

The extension now uploads the picture files into the folder images/lmdi/gloss.
If you used a former version with store/lmdi/gloss, move the files with a FTP client into the new folder and delete the former one.
Version 3.0.9 is available on github.
Checked under 3.3.0-RC1 (not yet 3.3.0 but I don't expect surprises) and under 3.2.8.

Hi,

i have installed this Extension. I have activated it. But on the extension tab for general settings i have a "White Page".

PHP-Version: 7.2.29
Version des Boards: 3.2.4

[pierredu]

Do you have access to the server error log?
This would help us to pinpoint this issue.

P.S.: In the mean time, I reinstalled a version 3.2.4 of the board and my extension doesn't work with it (after doing the twig conversion and adding the lang class). You'll have to upgrade to 3.2.9 or 3.3.0.
