Informers |
# Informer Samples #
Informers serve to display entries of particular modules on any pages of any sites. For example, you can output the latest forum threads or most commented photos right on the main page. This helps to make your site more interesting and handy for the visitors. To create an Informer: 1. Go to Informers section on the main page of the Control Panel. 2. Press Create informer. 3. Select necessary module in the field with the pop-down list. (Additional options will appear depending on a module). 4. Set parameters of the options Number of entries and Number of columns. 5. Press Create. 6. Insert the obtained code of the type Code $MYINF_id$ 7. Informer appearance and the information for output can be edited in informer template. Type of information (uCoz codes) depends on the source module. List of codes, available for a certain informer, is under the form for editing template. With the help of the informer, you can output information both on pages of your website and on any other site in the internet. There are no explanations for the codes, used in informer template. This is because informers are a serious thing and you should not edit informers without good knowledge of HTML and uCoz system. Question-answer Where should I put the code of informer? *** *** *** *** *** *** I'm not active on the forum anymore. Please contact other forum staff.

I'm trying to make informer to show last added entries with images and my final result is this:
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" class="infTable"><tr><td style="text-align:center;"><a href="$ENTRY_URL$"><img src="$FULL_PHOTO_DIRECT_URL$" width="120" height="170"> </a><br /><a href="$ENTRY_URL$">$TITLE$</a><br />[<a href="$CATEGORY_URL$">$CATEGORY_NAME$</a>]</td></tr><tr><td style="text-align:left;"></td></tr></table> This is how it looks http://store.picbg.net/pubpic/52/83/0a0e9eaa5f375283.gif |
Quote (try to use : $IMG_URL1..10$ or $IMG_SMALL_URL1..10$) I,ve try it before but doesn't work. |
Quote (Kron_old) - Informers (as well as RSS-import and Tag Board) work so that not to create additional load on the server, the data are cached and refreshed after a time or at some changes on the site Can someone please explain exactly how this works and the timeframe/ delays involved. The reason I'm asking is because I logged out and closed down my browser and then logged in - to find that the results of the informer had not yet been updated. Thanks |
Yes thanks i was mistakenly expecting it to 'refresh' on the frontend after a certain amount of time rather than be a backend (server) refreshing process).
But i'd still like an idea of the 'amount of time' if possible - i.e. 5mins, 15mins, 1hr, 5hr or 1 day etc |
Hi there can anyone explain why i cant use informers to exibit to ONLY registered members & Admins as why would i want NON REISTERED I.E. GUESTS to be able to gain access to inportant forum posts, details of what were doing or other information,files or images that the system has set for them not to see by virtue of the group being guests, surely that has to be backwards as most surely will have their guests set at lowest amount of access????? or have i as usual missed something
Could someone in teh know please explain so myself and i am sure others might explain Ucoz's idea on this and why as yet i have been unable to find out how to make it ONLY mod, members & admins that have access rights to informers Many thx VW T4 - T5 Transporter community website and forum group at www.t4club.co.uk
