Hello, I am running GL 1.5.2. I'm trying to get the email and print icons to appear on a story page.

Currently they only appear on the index page.

I've been searching the forums for a few hours, and I've read several related posts, but I'm still scratching my head on this one.

My article.thtml looks like this:



From my reading, I've learned that {formatted_article} loads the html from storytext.thtml. My storytext.thtml contains {email_icon} and {print_icon}:



When I view the page source, the span with a class of "story-icons" only contains the Edit icon.

I've looked through configuration files, and all of the template files. Why aren't they appearing on the story page?

I appreciate any help. Thanks.

The idea is that on the article page, you have the "Story Options" block, which already contains those links - in a different place and without the icons.

What you can do is hard-code the icons in the article.thtml template, i.e. instead of using the variables, add them as links and images in plain HTML.

bye, Dirk

Thank you very much for your quick, concise reply Dirk.

That did the trick.

Thanks again for your help Dirk, and one more question.

I now have the Mail story to a friend working correctly on the article pages. While testing this yesterday, I noticed that the mail is being sent with some unencoded characters like (’ and “ and &ndash

I checked profiles.php and here's how the bodytext is being handled:


I would think that the undoSpecialChars would handle those....Any ideas why I'm still seeing ’ and “ in the emails that are sent out?
