Static pages plugin problem

Post by michielree »

I'm experiencing a problem after upgrading. The layout of static pages isn't the same anymore as that of blog entries. Most problematically, the slick flash layout of titles is lost: cf. www.flanor.nl vs. http://www.flanor.nl/log/index.php?/leesgroepen.html

Got any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Erm. I have to admit I have no idea what seems to be the issue here, the page looks fine to me? (Nice customizing job, BTW.)

Is this possibly a browser-related (read: Internet Explorer) problem? (I've only viewed it in Firefox, which really looks okay.)

If not, I'm afraid you're gonna have explain what's different after upgrading in much more detail. At least for me.

Thanks for your quick reaction. What I mean is that the title of static pages used to be layed out the same way as that of the blog entries, as defined in my entries.tpl. After upgrading both serendipity (from 1.1.2 to 1.5.4) and the static pages plug-in today the titles of static pages are displayed as normal text.

Ah, I see. Seems like you use some kind of flash-based image replacement technique for the headings? Sifr or something? Do you use a S9y plugin for that or did you implement it yourself?

Seems like this technique is not applied to the static pages which suggests that you edited the static pages plugin's tpl files? If you did, and if you edited the files in the plugin directory, they're overwritten in case of an update to S9y. You can, however, copy those tpl files to your template's directory and edit those copied files - they are safe in case of an update to either S9y or the plugin. (Unless you don't have a seperate directory for your template, which you most definitely should have.)

Putting the static plug-in .tpl's in the template folder did the trick, thanks a lot!
