Hi,

blank screen would indicate fatal error is happening - you need to enable error reporting in joomla configuration (e.g. set it to maximum), so you can see real error.

Also make sure that you've got error reporting switched on in wamp:

Click on the "W" in your applications tray

PHP > PHP Settings > Display errors (ticked)

After you've done that please paste the error here.

Hey guys,

Thanks for your help, found the problem - it was a easysocial content plugin (displays author's avatar and contact in an article) causing the error apparently, not sure why (if anyone knows please let me know)...

Now I get this warning when a new article (from a new content type) created:

What does it mean and how to avoid this?

Thanks

Hi ilan,

I don't have any experience with that plugin, but by the sounds of it it's not really neccesary for your website. If you have SEBLOD installed you can use SEBLOD to display the author's avatar and contact in an article.

1. First you will need this field, published on your "Article" content type: http://www.seblod.com/products/10868
2. Then in the "intro" view of your "User" content type you assign the fields you want to dispay: in your case I assume this is the Article Created By field and a User Avatar field.

Then you will be able to see the user's profile picture on your Article content type. If you want to customise the output, you can do a template override on the user intro view.

Thanks

James

Hey _jrmo, thanks for the tip.

I really need registration via Facebook and getting the Avatar image, name, etc. Also the ability to send messages to users.

Any quick tutorial on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

I would say use this plugin to handle the FB profile / login functionality:

http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/social-web/social-display/facebook-integration/7215

And do the rest with SEBLOD

I appreciate your help but I don't want to spend more money on another extension which will do the same as the extension I already have (and paid for it).

I thought maybe this could be done natively in Seblod, else there's no point for buying another extension...

Here is the error message I get with easysocial content plugin enabled when saving an article:

Any suggestions?

open main file of the plugin and add at the top of the file

include_once JPATH_SITE . "/components/com_content/helpers/route.php";
