[Plugin: flshow Manager] XML FILE Error

BrandiBoyd, you’re the best!
Thank you very much!
Your explication is perfect, even for a french guy ??

Encore une fois, merci beaucoup de ton aide!

Shit, the problem is back :'( !
lol
everything is good now! (i used a second carrousel with an incorrect number -> the first doesn’t work anymore)

I’m also getting the 1085 error as seen here:

I tried BrandiBoyd’s suggestion too, but it didn’t seem to fix anything.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Has any one worked out this plugin?

I have a problem with a plugin that you helped to create, FLShow. I have a problem with the plugin, the xml is placed in a folder which is different to where is been pointed. What I mean is this: The folder where the xml gets saved is in /wp-content/upload/ BUT, the plugin looks for the file in a folder which does not exist, in fact, the folder name is the name of the xml which is the photo album within the root the folder. So even if I create a folder with that name within the root folder, which the file added, still gets an error.

Can you help all those people who are using it (at least trying).

What I have gather so far, is that just about any one who used this plugin gave up! Please help

Hi.
None of us helped create the plugin, and the creator doesn’t seem to be involved here.

It’s always helpful to give the actual error you are having; this thread involves two errors for the flShow plugin- an I/O error and error #1085.
It sounds like you are having the same trouble I did – the I/O error. It is actually not that the plugin is looking for a folder which doesn’t exist.
It is both that the plugin is looking for a file name without the extension on it (i.e.- your-flshow-file instead of your-flshow-file.xml), and that it is looking for that file in two places where it does not naturally exist- you have to copy it there manually via ftp, AND add a bit of code to a plugin file to make it look for a file instead of a folder.

If it is the I/O error you should be able to use the fix: here (above).
Delete the folders you created. Then follow the steps in that post above. Edit your file in a text editor or the plugin editor.

Unfortunately I don’t have a solution for the #1085 error as I can’t reproduce it on my own setup. If someone wants to give me access to theirs with the offending error I will give it a shot sometime in the next week but can’t promise anything.

Hi,

I have the same problem with #1085 error.
The difference with you workaround is there is no directory under the wordpress_root/plugins/flshow-manager/resources/…
Thanks for your help.

if you replace:

var flashVars = {xmlfile: ‘<?php echo $show->guid, (‘.xml’); ?>’}

with:

var flashVars = {xmlfile: ‘<?php echo “https://&#8221;.$_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’]?>/wp-content/uploads/flShow_carousel_<?php echo $flshow_id.”.xml”;?>’ };

it should find the uploads directory where your xml file is placed, and the id ref (flShow_carousel_XXX, where XXX equals id ref) and add xml extension.

dsonesuk you are the master. thanks!
