Guestbook

[jbear123]

Hi,

I have put guest books underneath videos to act as 'leave your comment' boxes. I have about 5 videos on a page, so 5 comment boxes. When someone enters a comment on one of the guest books, the rest have the comment duplicated onto them.

How can I stop this happening?

Thanks,

Jon

Re: Guestbook

Are they all using the same guestbook script? If so, they are all selecting comments from the same database

Re: Guestbook

Hi,

They are just 'guest books' from the blue voda website builder. Do you know how i can create separate databases and make each one select from separate databases?

Thanks,

Re: Guestbook

BV guestbook uses a flat file as database. So, to use different files, you would need to manually edit BV's php filename to have a different file name for each guestbook, and of course, rename the library files to have names accordingly

Re: Guestbook

Go in your BV pages guestbooks, double click the guestbook, and in the Advanced section, change the text file name:

./guestbookdb.php to ./guestbookdb1.php for the first,

./guestbookdb.php to ./guestbookdb2.php for the second and so on.

Also change the PHP Script Name, for each guestbook, from

guestbook.php to guestbook1.php for the first,

guestbook.php to guestbook2.php for the second and so on.

It is all done within BV. Save your pages and republish.
