Re: Link to Glossary Term Entry

glossary terms are always shown with their corresponding tooltip. You could link them manually with your list of glossary terms. Thorsten Thorsten - I am not sure what you mean, here. What is a "tool tip" and how does that enable me to link to a glossary entry. I have attached a screen sh...

Re: Consolidated Configuration Controls

Hi, you are right, that our documentation could be much much better. 1. First, to the maximum extent possible, all "option switches" and other controls should be consolidated in a master configuration file with detailed documentation and comments in the code. Most of them are in one datab...

Consolidated Configuration Controls

Although phpMyFAQ has a lot of options built into the code that can be used to change various parameters, adjust the look and feel, and so on, they are generally scattered through the code, and often accessible only by modifying the php files. Several things can be done to make it easier to access t...

Re: Viewing User and Group Rights

Hi, the group rights overrule the user's rights. So a user cannot have any right, but if she's or he's a member of a group with permissions, she or he can access. ......

Firefox Spell Checking on Data Entry

The automatic spell checking feature in Firefox does not seem to work when writing FAQ descriptions in the new FAQ text entry form. It seems as if something that PMF's editor is doing disables Firefox's spell checker; Is there a way to fix this?
