Issue Summary

Just installed the dev version for D7 and tried to use the lightbox trigger field in views. I can add it, but in the configuring box it states:

"The handler for this item is broken or missing and cannot be used. If a module provided the handler and was disabled, re-enabling the module may restore it. Otherwise, you should probably delete this item."

I just commited a fix for this, is only change the api version from 2.0 to 3.0. I did some basic testing and it works, but not a real use case, so please, try to use it and report again if it do not work or have any error.

I'm using the September 19th 2011 version of lightbox2 7.x-1.x-dev along with views 7.x-3.0-rc1.

Upon trying to add the lightbox trigger field to a view, I am getting the same result error as the original poster.

"The handler for this item is broken or missing and cannot be used. If a module provided the handler and was disabled, re-enabling the module may restore it. Otherwise, you should probably delete this item."

Is there a solution to this?

This is strange because i commited a fix for this (http://drupalcode.org/project/lightbox2.git/commit/ae40acd) so it is in git, but it is not in last dev, in the line 1527 of the lightbox.module file, change where is '2.0' with '3.0'.

Please make this change or get the code from git, i do now know why the last dev do not have it. I will do some others changes today and see if the next dev contains it.

Thanks.

This is closed on git, just wait for the next dev.

Any idea when the next dev is coming out? I needed this too, but used a work around.
thx

I am using the latest version. I checked that the API is written as 3.0. Nevertheless, the same error continues for me...

I am using the latest dev as well - I even un-installed and re enabled the module

I still get the same error (the 3.0 is included in the dev)

The handler for this item is broken or missing and cannot be used. If a module provided the handler and was disabled, re-enabling the module may restore it. Otherwise, you should probably delete this item.

this is with views 7.x-3.0-rc3

Same problem here, using latest Lightbox2 dev 10/13/2011, Views 7.x-3.0-rc3 and CTools 7.x-1.0-rc1.

Broken/missing handler (Broken handler lightbox2.lightbox2)

#10

Posted by leon.nk on November 24, 2011 at 12:20pm

The issue is because of the new autoload functionality in D7 core. Handlers are now defined in a modules .info file and not via the hook_views_handlers().

Here's a patch to fix the problem.

Thanks

I've tested the patch, it works fine now. Only thing I had to correct was the closing curly bracket. Here's the adjusted patch from http://drupal.org/node/1271456#comment-5286170

You might have to clean the views cache to see it working.

Because I only added one curly bracket to the patch I've tested, I'm setting the status to review & tested.

I got the patch to work. But can't get anything to appear in the caption field. :(

Could you please file a separate issue as a support request? This is a bug report that's already reviewed and tested.

Is this still applicable to the most recent update of Views? I've applied the patch with no success - still no trigger handler available.

#16

Posted by circuscowboy on December 2, 2011 at 2:35am

Yes - works here - did you clear cache?

#17

Posted by Souvent22 on December 13, 2011 at 11:03pm

The hook_views_data isn't loaded as it seems lightbox2.views.inc isn't parsed at all.

#18

Posted by leon.nk on December 15, 2011 at 10:03am

Souvent22 that's the problem my patch solves. Have you tried clearing your cache?

Patch in #11 worked. Please commit so the field works in Views.

#11 patch works. Thanks, troyer.

Posted by carn1x on April 30, 2012 at 4:34am

Patch in #11 works great.

However in the Popup description for the field config it says "Combine tokens from the "Replacement patterns" below and html to create what the lightbox popup will become." however I'm not seeing any Replacement Patterns below.

#24

Posted by serkuz on May 23, 2012 at 7:53pm

Yes. The patch works.
I could figure out the replacment pattern in my case by entering the field name in brackets - e.g.: [field_content_image_1] and it works for me.

#25

Yes. The patch in #11 works, for me too.
Thank you

Newbies to patching (like me), might try manually patching with a text editor such a Notepad.

This is a small patch, and is really easy to follow.

Have a look here, for some manual patching tips:

Backup, be careful, try at testing site first. Good luck!!

The patch #11 doesn't work for me. The field "Lightbox" in the list of view filters is not shown after the application of patch. I have tried clearing the cache. I have tried the patch on the version dev and version beta of lightbox2. I have the version of views 7.x.3.3. and drupal version is 7.14

Thanks for your help.

#27

Posted by eorr on July 28, 2012 at 9:59pm

@cabita - Are you looking in fields or filters? The lightbox trigger is a field.

I'm also not seeing replacement patterns.

#28

Posted by mark@redhorsein... on August 2, 2012 at 4:05pm

I don't see replacement patterns either. I can open a lightbox window with nothing in it now.

#29

Applied #11 on lightbox2-7.x-1.x (Janurary 1, 2012) and it works.

#32

Posted by Po3t on December 3, 2012 at 10:43am

I'm running 7.x-1.0-beta1 and I'm still encountering this issue. It's been over a year since this was originally reported. Can we get this patch committed to the official release yet?

#33

Posted by jjjjack on January 27, 2013 at 1:59pm

The patch in #11 allows the trigger to show up and work, but as others have noted, replacement patterns aren't visible. In my case, Token is installed and working fine with other modules.

I got sick of wasting many hours fiddling with broken lightboxes. I found most of them aren't compatible with many browsers anyways. This one works in every browser I've used: jQuery Combo Pack. It's also super lightweight and fast.

The patch from #11 worked for me.

After replying the patch, do not forget to clear the cache.

One more thing, if the replacement tokens do not appear, get it from the field added above this field in the view.

Thanks
