Hi guys,
i’ve decided to install a guestbook without mysql database.
When i’ve installed it, i’ve received an error about flyoutmenu.php.
What’s wrong?
Link is http://www.meteocarmignano.it/public/wxguestbook.php
I’ve attached two php files: flyoutmenu.php and wxguestbook.php
Thanks in advance to your help,
I think the issue is caused by installation of the wxguestbook.php in a subdirectory … the template files are all expecting to be in the same directory (in your case, the document root). Try moving the wxguestbook.php page up a directory and see if that fixes the issue. If you want to keep it in a subdirectory, then you’ll need to do similar adjustments as those required for the WordPress plugin to adjust for directory and absolute url addressing in the flyout-menu.xml
For what it’s worth, I installed a guestbook 8 months ago. I thought nothing of it until I checked my bandwidth a few weeks after uploading and saw it had gone completely off the scale!!
I checked my stats, located the main culprit was Guestbook. When I looked at the Guestbook it was filled with dubious and hundreds of adverts!! Most of them for strange sites etc, needless to say, I erased the guestbook immediately. It looks as if the book was trawled by bots and had entries automatically generated.
The WordPress plugin to the WD/AJAX/PHP template set was discussed here.
I agree with MrPlow and smokie… guestbooks are a spam-bot magnet unless they use Captcha to defeat the robots.
I don’t have a guestbook… if folks want to say anything about the site, I appreciate the mail messages throught the contact form on the site.
