Author link tutorial bug

Yes this is an advantage of moving to GIT among others.

It will be done at some time in near future, i believe other team member will agree too.

These are some drawbacks of Git:
-- it's much harder to learn (at least if you try to use advanced stuff), because Git has more features and commands.
-- revisions don't have version numbers like in subversion ...
-- many Git commands are difficult to master, and error messages are not user-friendly
-- it lacks a good GUI (such as the great TortoiseSVN)
(i need to check how good is TortoiseGit )

But advantages of it over SVN make the change worthwhile

Regards

I discut with netassopro and he is ok to help dev for feature ..
It will interesting to create à dev team ? For Next release

Hello,
I have no objection to moving to GIT platform (and host it on github.org )

I will ask other project members to agree with this change ... and talk to netassopro directly

Regards

you are correct. i use it with very basic skills. but i know some ppl love it and use it to the fullist.

Hi,

Trying to follow the tutorial on flexicontent.org/documentation/f ... uthor.html to basically create a similar author page as explained by @algardata and I can't make it working neither!

I have added the code
It is mention NOTE above remove space from # __ and I presume that it is the space between # and __ that need to be removed! I did so, and I am getting the same error as @algardata, that is:

Either the query is not valid or it doesn't return any rows

I have posted another topic reply here flexicontent.org/forum/index.php ... pic#p33616 but I think that if I can make the Author Link work properly, I can make an author category and author type with some additional fields, that will totally give us the required solution.

Just the space should be removed.
# __users
should become
#__users

Joomla replaces #__ (with 2 underscores) with the database table prefix from the Joomla configuration.
So if the database table prefix in configuration is jos_
#__users
becomes
jos_users
in the extension code.

This way all Joomla extensions work with any database table prefix the user has configured.

So fix that first and try again.
