Hello vanhomang,

It looks like a problem with a plugin. Are you using a plugin to display the teachers?

How are you trying to display the teachers on this page?

It would also be helpful to know the version of Joomla you are using.

Please let us know.
Cheers,
Ed

Ed,

I am not sure if it's a plug in or not. I have been told that the teachers use IWeb to update their pages and then we have them hyper linked in Joomla. The teacher names are displayed and linked (in Joomla). We are using Joomla version 1.5.

Thanks for your help! Angie

Hi Angie,

The only entry on that page is this code {[php/mhs_show.php]}
Either this is a designation for a plugin, and this line is meant to insert the plugin output in the article, or it's part of a bigger script that inserts the output from a custom script called mhs_show.php.

I didn't see any plugins for this. So I'm suspecting that originally there was more to this code, and when viewing the page in the editor and saving a change, the rest of the code got stripped out by the JCE editor.

Is there any way to get find out what was originally on the page? Or get in touch with the person who originally set it up?

Ed,

We do have Jumi Router in Plugin and Jumi module could this be part of the problem?

Yes, are those enabled? They probably should be.

Jumi allows you to write php code into an article without having it stripped on save. It looks like they probably used that to write a script and place it on that page to retrieve the web pages, and it got stripped out when saving.

What's showing is most likely only part of what needs to be there. I'm thinking you need the rest of the code that made up that script, and then you need to insert it in the page using Jumi.

It's hard to look back on someone else's work and think the same way they did, but this seems most likely to me.

If you can find that script mhs_show.php and save it as a .txt file and attach it to this post, we might be able to figure out how they were trying to make the connection to these web pages.

I don't know where the pages are coming from, or what is actually supposed to show on the site or how the data is being collected. There's no way to tell just from what's on the page now.

Ok, I will see if I can get that script from the tech dept. Yes both the module and the plugin are enabled when I look in Joomla. Thank you.

Hi Angie,

Looks like you got it fixed with Jumi on your own! Hope our suggestions helped you narrow it down. Like I mentioned earlier, it's tough to think like the last person who did the work. Looks like you figured it out though.

Nice going. Good work. Keep it up.
Cheers,
Ed
