Re: Problem with installation on DS916+ 8GB

It appears Synology REALLY LIKES php 5.6 even though it is obsolete. Unfortunately they have a few programs that still require this version. I sent a request asking them to update their programs, so I could delete php5.6, but never received a reply. One thing I forgot to mention is to run phpinfo.ph...

Re: Problem with installation on DS916+ 8GB

Nothing has changed. Are you using WordPress from Synology or WordPress.org? I ask because if you use the WordPress.org version you need to make sure you are using the correct socket. Also check the mysql.default_port in the php core configuration. Synology defaults to 3306 but MariaDB 10 uses 3307....

Re: Atom feeds not working in phpbb

I'm a bit confused because vBulletin and phpBB are different programs. I am not familiar with vBulletin so I can't help with questions. If you are using phpBB you might try the smart feeds extension . According to the features, it has the ability to integrate external feeds but I'm not sure how it w...

Re: Atom feeds not working in phpbb

There are no feed readers written for specifically for phpbb. When feed readers encounter a feed URL, they display the content of the feed. The way feeds are displayed depends on the feed reader. If you are using Google Chrome you can install their RSS extension . If you are using Mozilla Firefox yo...

Hide TNG Chart Event Numbers and GMT Dates - Includes USA Events Download

SimileTimeline version 2.3.1 adds extra dates with hours, minutes and seconds GMT to the timeline bubbles. The MOD below turns those dates off and adds an option to hide TNG event chart numbers. Before making changes, consider upgrading. The GMT modification was added in TNG v12.2 /web_images/tng/se...

TNG Simile Timeline Window is Blank

Before making changes, consider upgrading. This modification has been corrected in TNG v12.2 The TNG simile-timeline window was blank, so I contacted Darrin who suggested some files were missing. Reinstalling the files in TNG did not resolve the problem. The good news is Darrin has taken care of th...

Menu Bar Link Mod for TNG

When using TNG with WordPress all has gone reasonably well except for mobile devices. There is no easy way to get back to WordPress from TNG pages without using the back button or typing in the URL again. So I created a MOD that adds a URL link in the TNG inner menu bar. After thinking about it user...

Changing the tree id in TNG

I DO NOT recommend changing the tree id unless you made a mistake like I did. It is best to be familiar with phpMyAdmin but, if you're not, the instructions below are for modifying a copy of the database so the original is left unchanged. That said, when I first installed TNG, years ago, I used tree...

Re: Install TNG on a Synology NAS

I have not used special character sets. You might try TNG WIKI and Maria DB Setting Character Sets and Collations.

I have some meetings and projects for work to complete so my responses may be slow.

Re: Installing TNG in WordPress

1. A double login is required because TNG and WordPress are separate programs using different databases so there is no native integration. TNG has a third party plugin for integrating with WordPress but I have not used it and cannot offer any guidance for integrating logins. 2. The easiest way is us...
