Testimonial Manager Support Thread

I find that I do not need most of the definitions in testimonials_add.css except for:

option {background:#fff; color:#000;}
optgroup {background:#fff; color:#000; font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;}
optgroup option {background:#fff; color:#000;}

which I am not sure where they are utilized. If I determine that I do not need the entire testimonials_add.css file, can I simply not upload it to the server? Thanks.

BTW, when editing a testimonial that has an image previously added, the image gets deleted even when the Delete Image's radio button was set to 'No'. Am I missing something?

Those are there for future development.

The rest of the definitions in that css file affect the layout of the form.

I'm unable to to duplicate this behavior.

What exactly are you editing?

Thank you the fast response. Basically, I took these steps:

1. admin->tools->Testimonials Manager
2. click on a testimonial that has an image added previously
3. click Edit
4. click Update w/o editing anything.

That's all. The image is now missing. I checked the image folder specially created for testimonial and found the image file still there.

Btw, I am doing this in my local PC though. Thanks for any advice.

I've still not been able to duplicate this either on my test site or on my local PC.

Try this and see if it helps:

Just unzip the file and drop the entire admin folder into your ZC installation.

Is there a way to require a CAPTCHA code to be entered when submitting testimonials?
I'm getting many bogus testimonials entered with junk and spam.

Take a look at the Captcha mod in the downloads section.

You should be able to modify the testimonial mod by following the way that mod is set up.

Hi Clyde, I downloaded, did a file comparison (of the single file in the zipped file) and found that I already had the same file with the same code. Any advise? Thanks very much.

You could try setting the 'Only registered customers may submit a testimonial' to 'True'. That should deter at least some spam. Then if you install the CAPTCHA at your registration page, you could save yourself the problem of having to merge these 2 mods. plus reasonably resolve the spam issue. Just my 2 cents worth.

Again, I've followed the steps you outlined above and have not been able to duplicate the behavior you describe. So I'm not sure what the problem might be.

I've checked on my local PC using XAMPP server environment and also on my test site.

I'm using the most recent version (1.4.6) of testimonials manager on both my PC and test site.
