Free extensions for Joomla!

Hello,
i'm french so excuse my english mistakes.

I had problem with the {mainvote} tag in joomla 2.5. It did not show and could not take the rating into/from the db.

As we can view in this page :
http://joomla.vargas.co.cr/en/documentation/14-extra-vote/22-how-does-extra-vote-work
the extravote table contains the id of the article and the id of the {} tag.
The problem was :
the id value of the tag {mainvote} in the web page is 'x', so the type is a "char"
but the column extra_id in the table accept only the "int" type

My solution was modify the tag id (in ajax.php) to 0 when the value is 'x'.
To do this, simply add this in the /plugins/content/extravote/assets/ajax.php at line #89 :

Code: Select all

   
if ($xid == 'x')
   {
      $xid = 0;
   }


I am surprised that the solution is so simple. I do not know if it was an oversight from vargas, or if the problem is more complex. I did some positive tests, but I can not guarantee that it works without any further problems.

Hello,

Thanks for noticing, this was a bug that came up in a recent change we made to the code.

The issue was in fact a little more complex, but thanks to your observations we were able to detect and fix it.
The download package has been updated.

Best regards!

Thank to you for all the work you have done on this great plug-in
