List of authors and their profiles

Hi baraban,

the function is a part of the standard module (theme_ejournal_show_author) you can override it from your inc file
preconditions:

1) in the ejournal authors administration, you must associate users accounts with their taxonomy entries
2) you should have profile.module switched on (part of core drupal) and configured

if you have these and somebody goes to
/ejournal/1/term/1?edit%5Btype%5D=author

then the ejournal display profile of the user together with its articles.

hth :)

Ciao,
I am sorry I can't read russian (yet) -

as to the question of how to get a page of authors that links to profiles, it is quite simple ;-)
point your browser here and you will see
http://www.odessapage.com/new/ru/ejournal/1/list/2

so the link is /ejournal//list/

If you want to override the default layout, put the function "theme_ejournal_list_vocabulary" inside of your active include (look for inspiration in the ejournal.module)

----

regarding the error message, you should check your version of ejournal.modulev(and grab the newest if possible). Probably there is PHP5 and some argument should be sent as an array but is not an array. Or you can check the theme_show_ejournal_author
There should be piece of code like this:

....
    $names = array();
    while ($author = db_fetch_object($authors)) {
      
    $names[] = $author->name;
      
    if ($account = user_load(array('uid' => $author->uid, 'status' => 1))) {
	
	$fields = array();
	if(function_exists('profile_load_profile')) {
	  if ($data = module_invoke('profile', 'user', 'view', '', $account)) {
	    foreach ($data as $category => $content) {
	      $fields[$category] .= $content;
	    }
	  }
	}

	$output .= theme('user_profile', $account, $fields);
      }
            
      if($author->tid) {
        $tids[] = $author->tid;
      }
    }
......

best,

roman

Hello,
I use the version 5 of the e journal module and don't understand how exactly to "associate users accounts with their taxonomy entries". Could you explain what steps to follow to achieve this ?
My best,

Hello Gregoire,

sorry for the delay. I must have been extemely busy around february, march. This is a second post I missed. Perhaps just to record it for others - maybe one day somebody will find time to prepare documentation ;-)

You can associate users' accounts with node terms -- so it is user_account <--> taxonomy_term

0. make sure you enabled the ejournalauthors.module
1. ejournal needs to know which taxonomy holds the Author names (in the ejournal edit form, just assign the dictionary for authors, first you need to create it)
2. each of your authors must have user account (and optionally, profile - if you enabled the profile module)
3. in the /admin/ejournal/ you should see the tab "Authors"
if you go there, you will be able to see list of your users on the left and on the right you can choose the correct taxonomy term (doing this, you will make the link user_account <--> taxonomy_term)
4. ejournal will handle the rest
