Ah! Success!

I finally got the Acronym Module to work again! There was something wrong with my mcp.acronym.php file so I couldn’t upgrade, uninstall, or anything. I tried uploading the file many times via FTP, via the FTP utility in UltraEdit, via web-based FTP, and none of those worked. Then I tried uploading it using the File Manager Module, but that didn’t work either. Eventually I went to the File Manager in Cpanel, created a new file, and cut and paste in the contents from mcp.acronym.php. And that somehow worked! I gotta go add the acronym tags on my site again.

Oh, and the poll module should be working again. I really need to post a new poll. It’s been a loonng time since I posted one, and I had planned on doing a weekly poll. :p

As for other EE related stuff, I want to add the avatar of the currently-logged in member, but it turns out you need to use php parsed on input to do that. I think when I have time I’ll write a plugin to do that, because I have php parsed on output.

One last thing – Gravatar.com seems to be down.

Is my avatar suppose to show up in the live preview? Have you enabled the avatars in the EE CP?

The avatar didn’t show up in the live preview when you commented, but it should be working now. smile I had to write a plugin to do it. And yes, avatars are enabled.

Argh.. I spoke too soon. The plugin doesn’t work properly. If you’re logged in and you don’t have an avatar uploaded, it’s supposed to show a gravatar instead, but it isn’t working. If you do have an avatar uploaded it works.
