Hi all,

I added Facebook integration, YouTube sermons, a giving module, an external bible, and other features to the custom template. It was easy and fun.

Live example:

I must say I am very impressed with what you've done. Wow!

Would you be willing to share the code in your custom template area that makes all of this happen? Remove anything that would compromise security - but as we remake the front end of Bible Study we are looking to have a bunch of custom templates like this out of the box and yours is a wonderful example!

If nothing else, would you mind sending the contents of the custom template code to me via email?

Thanks,

Tom

Sure, I'd be happy to share. People will need to have a little php experience (not much though), register with Facebook for an Application ID, and the rest should be cut and paste from what I'll send you.


Also I have a question for you: I'm interested in upgrading to your new version, but I'm scared that it might break my CSS or the custom template. You had made some changes for me that allowed for the custom templates to work. Advice?

I think what happened is that we had a bug so that custom templates did not save any html. We fixed that bug in the core when you brought it our attention.

I just verified that the template form field you use has this code in it:



The "raw" makes it so that html will be passed through. So you should have no worries.

As always, though, I would suggest doing a full site backup with Akeeba Backup prior to installing the new version. You might also backup your JBS tables.
