<lj-cut> is working now. it's beta but you can grab it if you want.

So yeah, of course there was a bug in that you shouldn't (can't) globally register filter functions. They're only valid on the index and edit pages.

duh.

you'll want http://frcooper.com/xm/lj/beta/lj_update.php.gz to fix the problem.

I really want to use this hack but scared to try it for messing up my B2 blog.
Let me ask a few questions and see if you can help or tell me how .
I have look all over the forum trying to find one way but not to much luck .
Now to update the B2 you would just take the B2config.php and index.php from my journal and copy my host data base etc to the LJ hack . but after that I'm not sure what to do ? Do you take all the files and just copy over your files on the server and then run the B2ljinstall.php ?
Will I lose my posts that I have now or do I have to make a backup of the sql and reload that?
I hope I'm not being a pain in the butt . Smile

but really want to use this so I can post to Lj and my blog at one time.
Feel free to email me if you can help .
[email protected] and I check the board at least once a day .
Thank you for your time .

How did you install your blog in the first place? You followed the instructions.
If you're scared to try it, don't do it.
If you're scared but want to do it anyway, good. Make a backup of your current install.

Your best bet from the sounds of it is grab the b2+lj distro from sourceforge or my site, and install it like you were upgrading your b2 install. Then run the b2ljinstall.php to create the database tables. Then go into your b2 account profile and set your Lj username and password.

You should be good to go.

Keep backups. Read carefully.

I did have a copy of the b2 with LJ on my server here at my home working so just took that one and did the upgrade and it all worked out fine , just want to know how you have on yours it says comment under the [cloned from] ??
Did I over look something?

that's the sourcefooter setting in b2config.php

1 to enable / 0 to disable.

This is what mine was set at .
// post default settings
// lju_post: 0/1 - post to LiveJournal
// lju_disablecomments: 0/1 - disable commentting on the post at LiveJournal
// lju_sourcefooter: 0/1 - include a link back to the b2 post
$lju_post = 1;
$lju_disablecomments = 1;
$lju_sourcefooter = 1;
Thats to leave comments right ?

thats correct.

What are your b2 and lj urls? (PM me if you dont want to post them)

Sent you the urls.

Everything looks ok. Your Lj is showing the clone footer when I view it.
Am I misunderstanding the question/problem?

Candle · Joined: 23 Dec 2002 Posts: 547

Well yes it shows the clone link but takes the comment link off to live journal .
And have both set to 1 like you said.

Ahh - my fault. I misunderstood one of your earlier posts and didn't read carefully enough after that. Definite screw-up on my part.

$lju_disablecomments = 1; turns Lj comments off
change that to 0 to enable them.

So sorry for the miscommunication.

The patch took successfully. I updated my MySQL database for all the b2 additions. I'm getting the following however:
