Known Hook addons not working right
July 07, 2015, 08:55:51 pm
Okay, I know my addon works, as I have it installed on a few sites, but it seems whenever I install, it installs and the boxes in settings show up, but they do nothing, when enter anything into them. After some time, it seems it just starts working, usually. We mentioned this in another topic, where someone had a similar issue with an addon. I think this needs to be tracked.

The hook version or non-hook? If I am not mistaken, you didn't put div or table for your addon position. Can adding that fixes your problem?

Strange indeed. It could be your database problems. Or some files could be missing their contents. They happen sometimes.

Yes, but we had thought it could be the same, at the time... LOL Current PHP version: 5.5 Funny thing is, it installs and works on some sites, but not others. DeadMan's site, it would not show any of what entered into the boxes, and the Addon Demo site worked after a while. Now, doing hooks, will that install into custom themes, the way it's coded? I just thought of that. DeadMan's site is using Silence theme, and maybe the calls the addon looks for, are not present? EDIT: Looks like I may have found the issue, Install the addon, and enter something into the copyright, but not the below linktree box, and tell me what happens.

Buffer is like that can change BK to BurkeKnight so long BK can be found in that template. If BK is now BN in custom template, then you should change or add that into the subs file accordingly. We try to find unique elements and hook so that in won't disturb others.

It was not that, it was the if for each had to be done. Way it was, they all were in the same if.
