Thanks Andreas! I had placed the /tutorials folder outside my contao root folder. Once I moved the tutorials folder into the contao root folder, the rewrite rules took effect and all worked. ...
Happy almost New Year :-)!
I currently host accessibility.umn.edu domain and manage it with Contao. I would like to create a URL: "accessibility.umn.edu/tutorials" and have it point to html files...
Yes, this is exactly what I was looking for. I am glad these controls have been added. Thanks for pointing me to the repository.
I installed Lightbox4ward extension: http://www.contao.org/extension-list/view/Lightbox4ward.10030029.en.html.
All seems to be well except when the end use is trying to use the lightbox with the...
We experimented with the modification to the navigation template. The modification became somewhat tricky since we wanted to link the Home page, but not the other top level pages. We asked for help...

In the module type "Listing form data" that comes with efg, there is an option to indicate a field(s) that you would like to use to order the submitted form entries. By default this ordering is...
I got it to work now. The mistake that I made was that I set the Tag Object List module page to a single page. I think this was too narrow. Once I set the Page to the parent of the page that...
Interestingly the Tag Object List does not have a place to select a tag source table. Only tag source field is available. The 3 options for tag source are tl_content, tl_article, or tl_page.
After reading the tagging extension manual, I think I need to use Tag object list module to show only the items that are tagged with a certain tag. I tried this, but the page that shows the Tag...
I am trying to create a page that would display a list of tags at the top and all content elements for that page below it. Once the user clicks on the tag, the page would display the content...
Sorry, taca. I don't understand your question.
Thanks for this reference xcfs! I tried it out by copying the template code into a new template and also used the provided css statements, but it did not work for me :-(. The accordion elements...
Thanks for this code, Taca. I tried it and experienced a small setback. When I load a page, the small images that I had placed in front of my accordion headings are not there. They will appear...
I have the same issue as Doublespark. Is there a way to customize the sender address when using EFG extension?
Thank you
Yes, this does move the MenuMatic menu. As you appropriately pointed out, I would also have to move the text element down to make room for the menu. I wonder if there is a different way to do this....
I implemented the MenuMatic horizontal menu http://dsdev.ds.umn.edu/test-service.html.
Now I am having trouble figuring out how to move it to the desired position. I would like it to be below the...
I was concerned about changing contao.css in fear of something not working right if I did. I didn't think this file was something we were supposed to modify. We run six websites on a single...
Ruud, thanks this was it. I attached a div named wrap_text for the text element that is supposed to wrap and added this to my css:
#wrap_text {overflow:visible;}
This works, but I am not...
I have created an article with two elements. I am floating the first element right with CSS. I would like the text of the second element to wrap around the first element. I have not been able to...
Thanks for the reference. My co-worker happened to have this book and I am reading it now. Already learned a bunch.
Thank you both. Your suggestions got me on my way. I ended up fixing it using CSS only. It is still messy, but the display is at least usable now in Chrome, Safari. I really need to learn more...
I did my best to create a form and get the fields lined up properly: http://forms.ds.umn.edu/deaf-and-hard-o ... -2011.html . The form looks fine in Firefox and IE, but terrible in Safari and...
Thank you Vera, your code did the trick. I would probably not have been able to resolve it on my own.
thanks for the pointers! I will dig into it.
I am trying to align three checkboxes horizontally on a form. On this page http://dsweb2.oed.umn.edu/doc-con-submit-files.html I would like the checkboxes for Kurzweil, RTF and Other to show up on...
Looks like I am able to select a new template if I have it in the root of the template folder structure. I had it in a subfolder. I will email the developer about it.
It is the template css code that I would be interested in seeing in case someone has already changed it to show the thumbnails vertically.
Also, I have not been able to change the slideshow2 to...
Just as easy as that! Thank you!
I have a left hand navigation menu that expands when you click on the parent item: http://accessibility.umn.edu . I don't remember having to do anything special in to make this happen.
I am now...
Great work on slideshow2 extension! I had no problems getting it up and running.
I would like to place the thumbnails vertically next to the image as is displayed on this slideshow2 example...
By looking at the page settings in Site Structure, the comment below the CSS class field says: "The classes will be used in navigation menu and the body tag" In my case I would like the background...
Yes, indeed! I needed to make the MenuMatic-ie6.css to be triggered only for IE6 browser. I changed this in CSS settings and it started to work!
Now, I must not have a correct path to the...
I got some of it problems fixed by changing MenuMatic.css file. I changed #nav from left: 50%; to left: 0px; . This made the entire menu appear in one line. However, the second level menu item...
Thanks Medianomaly, I will give your suggestion a try.
We are trying to implement a vertical menu that would have a different background color for each main level and their corresponding second level items. We would like to use the default navigation...
I tried to implement MenuMatic horizontal menu (http://greengeckodesign.com/menumatic)in Contao 2.9.2. I followed a guide provided in German -...
Vera, you are correct. There is "Assign Access Rights" in Website Root Pages. Just a miss on my part. Thanks for helping me out with this! Contao is great!
I think I understand now how the Default Page Group works in System Settings. By defining a group and then setting it as a Default Page Group and giving it appropriate rights would do two things:
...
Also found the feature request that and discussion around it: http://dev.contao.org/issues/614 .
I found a thread that talks about the workflow feature, which is exactly that I am looking for viewtopic.php?f=9&t=275&hilit=workflow. It seems that workflow feature is not supported at this time.
I set up the group's article fields as on the image below. However, the publish/unpublish option shows up and is functional. Unselecting the publish option also did not restrict editors from making...
Nina, I wonder if by defining a standard user group you mean setting that group as a Default page group. I could not find setting a standard user group option in settings.
When I select the...
We would like to have a group of backend users who should be able to edit existing articles, but not publish them. Then we have another group of user who should have rights to edit and publish the...
I am setting up a backend user group to edit some pages. I understand that once i have created the user group and assigned this group membership to the users, I then need to edit each page and...
I am trying to implement exactly this type of navigation, but by just looking at the Contao.org site I cannot determine how it is constructed. I have following questions:
Is there an additional...

Thanks for providing this code. When I try this navigation with a screen reader, I cannot access the second level links (the ones...
... been spoiled by Ubuntu where the server install takes care of installing and enabling PHP MySQL module.
MySQL support was not installed for PHP. After installing it and restarting Apache all worked well.
Tried re-downloading, and then extracting the Contao install once again. Ensured that permissions to the Contao root are correct, but the same behavior persists. I also uninstalled and reinstalled...
I had not seen the post about eaccelerator before. However, I don't believe that I am using it :-(. It is not listed in my modules list and is not referenced in php.ini file.
I am trying to install Contao on a new server, but cannot get the install tool dialog to appear past encrypting of the install tool password. I am installing Contao 2.9 on CentOS 5.5...
Thanks for these tips! They helped me think about how to approach navigation on the site I am working on. I am now leaning towards creating a top level category navigation that is horizontal and...
I am trying to replicate the kind of horizontal navigation menu that is found on Contao projects home page: http://www.contao.org. There are a couple features of this navigation that I find...
My problem was indeed with the Swiftmailer plugin. I had recently reviewed and changed the folder and file permissions on all typolight directories and files. In doing so, I missed the Swiftmailer...
It looks like the form redirection is not working because of the emailing of the form. When I disable to email the form, then the redirection works just fine.
From the error message I...
Good idea...

I am using TYPOlight version 2.8.2 . For some reason the form redirection is not working for me. I have set up redirection in the form, it is set to redirect to a page that is published, and I can...
After re-reading the article about moving contao installation I realized that I need to import the mysql database using mysql or phpMyAdmin instead of Contao install tool. I will give this a try...
I decided that the past calendar events are not that important and deleted all the events. I then created a new MySQL dump and tried import it, but I now receive a different error:
