mfDropCaps: Add your own drop caps to your Joomla articles http://www.marcofolio.net Sat, 21 Nov 2009 08:23:34 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.marcofolio.net/joomla/mfdropcaps_add_your_own_drop_caps_to_your_joomla_articles.html#josc1603 Sorry to inform you, but your plugin does not working in Joomla 1.5.2 Simply nothing appears. No change at all. You should think also about blog front-page layout. It would be very inappropriate to have lots of these stuff on frontpage.

I tried both installs and got the same error on both. Is the Joomla 1.0x version accidently the 1.5x version?

It\'s pretty strange, but I tried installing it here (again) and they\'re working fine (both for J! 1.0.x and J! 1.5.x). @Rade: Thanks for the feedback, I\'ll think about it in a later version. @Mike: What is the error you\'re getting? Please contact me through the contact form and I\'ll help you over there.

When I try installing either of the plugins on Joomla 1.0.15 I get the following error: Upload module - Upload Failed Unrecoverable error \"PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10)\" Upload module - Failed Installation file not found: Mike Mon, 14 Apr 2008 19:47:15 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/joomla/mfdropcaps_add_your_own_drop_caps_to_your_joomla_articles.html#josc1620 Hi, Try unpacking the ZIP file on your local machine. Than ZIP the files again, so you would create your own ZIP file. Upload that file. It should work, good luck!

Nothing happens when I turn on the plugin. Thanks, Wendell.

I may have a bugfix for your plugin: when accessing nodes that do not have the nodeValue attribute, it stops inserting the dropCaps. Here is a suggestion of modification to fix this. In addition, I\'m using a \"visited\" class to avoid visiting the same node twice.

Perhaps something went wrong when you packaged it? It looks like this...to my knowledge, this should look a lot cleaner...

http://www.marcofolio.net/joomla/mfdropcaps_add_your_own_drop_caps_to_your_joomla_articles.html#josc2884 I installed mfdropcaps but the dropcaps keep disappearing.

Did you enabled plugin? Marco... what about Joomfish support? can You make something with that issue? I mean let plugin to change Cap image depending on language of the page.
