UPDATE on August 25, 2006. Release Candidate 1: JM-Credits v1.1 RC1. Further explanation in reply # 10. ========== Hi all, JM-Credits is a component which displays credits for all the components, and all published modules and bots in a Joomla! site. Optionally also templates used can be credited and an extra custom record is available to credit other collaborators, like the webmaster or the web designer, for example. Two layouts, wide and compact, can be used to present the data. Depending on which one is chosen, details displayed will include name, author, version, e-mail and web site (compact) or the same plus creation date and copyright (wide). An intro text and a bottom copyright notice are provided, as well as the page name and component heading. All of them are editable through the administration panel. Based on
Language files English and Spanish are included in the package. To translate JM-Credits into other languages just translate the strings in one of the language files installed in the language folder. Then save that file as language/yourlanguage.php. Compatibility This component will work on Joomla! 1.0.x. License This component is released under the GNU/GPL License. Demo: Not available for the moment. You can see a live example (front end) in my test Joomla! directory: http://www.poraqui.net/joomla User: test Password: test. (it is a password-protected folder). I hope that you like this component and that it is useful to you. Please leave your comments here or PM me. Feedback will be much appreciated. Thanks. NOTE. Other extensions of mine:

Hey man! I would love to use your extension, but i guess it is timing out because it gives me a 500 internal server error when i click to see the credits on the frontend! Maybe you could implement some php to automatically restart the script? like some of the mysql backup tools use. I just have too many great components on my site installed..  thx fabs |

Hi fabs, I'm glad that you like my component  and I'm sad that you encountered that issue  .Unfortunately, as I said in other threads, I'm not a programmer, so I don't know much about MySQL errors and other in-depth coding matters  .Maybe if you try the compact layout, which involves less MySQL requests, the component will work  .I'll try to have a look at this, but I can't promise anything. On the other hand, if you find a solution, please let me know. Thank you for your feedback!

Thing is that i am no programmer either So I will not be able to solve that issue, sadly as it is...Right now the guys from joomlaplug, http://www.joomlaplug.com, are about to include such a script into their cloner, as i encountered the same issue with their script. Maybe if you ask them kindly you can hop on or maybe they even include such a feature into your comp... the bigape team,http://www.bigape.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=33&Itemid=26, is also concerned with php timeout and memory exceed problems and will sooner or later release a new version that might include such a feature. the man is really friendly and helpful. just another hint. mambobaer is about to realease a mysql backup comp for joomla and listed a script that prevents timeout as a new feature, http://www.mambobaer.de i think the myspl-dumper backup script for joomla, http://forge.joomla.org/sf/go/projects.joomla_bulgaria/frs.components.sql_dumper, already has such a feature included, as they say it does not matter how big the database is. I hope that helped a bit... i will try the compact mode and give you feedback, ok? till then! fabs |

Thank you for all the info, fabs.  I'll try to revise the code as soon as I have time to do so.  Cheers!

I just have too many great components on my site installed.. thx fabs Hello fabs, I found a possible solution to your problem in the Bookmarks forum: You can either change params in the php.ini file and then restart the Apache server or, for those who dont have access to these resources, you can modify the ".htaccess" file in your Joomla directory. The settings that need to be added/changed are: # Change PHP ini # ------------------------ php_value memory_limit 20M php_value max_execution_time 60 I hope this helps you out. And I hope you enjoy your stay in Spain! Viel Spass!

Well, as far as I know, copying components is quite difficult. Anyway, it seems strange to me that JM-Credits causes a 'time exceeded' error. I have 21 items to display and have no problems. How many extensions do you have?

68 comps (don't be shocked - 20 are games, and 10 are not in use;)... but then in addition i have just as many different modules to display and quite a few mambots installed also... |

Mambots, modules and templates are listed only if they are published, but components are listed unless they are core files, so in your case it takes too long to render, I'm afraid. Sorry, but I cannot offer a solution for the moment. I'll report any progress. Regards. |

Hello again. I think I found a solution for the problem with the execution timeout, provided that safe mode is off: Time limit is disabled while JM-Credits is being executed, then reset to 30 seconds when done. I hope it works, fabs. I have also added a new display format (minimun) which presents just name of element + author's name linked to his/her website. The file is attached to the first post in this topic. I hope it is useful for you. Feedback will be welcome. Thank you.

I just wanted to say that this is an EXCELLENT component! But, why is it not listed in the Third parties Extensions list under the category Credits? |

cmnetwork wrote: I just wanted to say that this is an EXCELLENT component! But, why is it not listed in the Third parties Extensions list under the category Credits? Thank you very much, cmnetwork. The matter is that I don't have much time for Joomla lately. In fact, as you can see, I hadn't posted here since August. Moreover, I cannot maintain the extension, so I thought that it was not so good idea to put it in the Third Party Extensions list. That's why it is not listed there. Maybe in the future... I hope some more people still searches the forums for advice on extensions, which is is becoming less and less likely, I'm afraid.

Oh I see...well, that's too bad. If you need some help with maintaining it (that is, if you're interested) I would be glad to help you out! I don't know too much about making and maintaining these projects, but I learn very quickly, and wouldn't mind seeing this component put on that list! |
