Title: Title nod displayed - 2 » Title not displayed - 2
Status: Active » Postponed (maintainer needs more info)

What version of PHP? MySql?

Have you looked at the node table to see if the titles were stored? Did you say the faq_questions table was empty?

Do you have a link to your site where we can see it happening?

Sure

What does "Вопрос-Ответ" mean? Because that is the page title and it's perfectly visible in my browser.

I'm not sure what the problem with your faq_questions table is. Is there any text in the "title" field of the "node" table for your faq nodes? Since you don't have many faqs configured, it might be an idea to completely uninstall the module and try again. If you're using a WYSISYG editor then that may also be causing problems. Are you using TinyMCE or one of those?

I wouldn't be worried about the "faq_weight" table being empty as it's only populated when you override the default ordering.

Cheers,
Stella

"Вопрос-Ответ" like a FAQ.

nid vid type title .....

beerman: the subject of this issue which you opened says "Title not displayed", but it is in fact appearing ("Вопрос-Ответ"). Perhaps you mean that the "question text" is not appearing?

Have you tried creating additional faq nodes? Do you receive any errors when adding new nodes or editing existing ones?

Cheers,
Stella

sure, "question text" not displayed. sorry ;)

yes, I have tried to create additional nodes, reinstall faq, faq_ask and helpers_database modules. Nice module, but I'm confused :(

Title: Title not displayed - 2 » Question text not displayed

Hmm, what you showed from the node table indicates that the question text is making it into the node. But the faq_questions table should have the same text in it. Are you seeing any message when you create a new faq? Anything in Watchdog ("recent log entries") or in your site's error log?

I don't think faq_ask or helpers_database are even in the question here, but those are both mine if there are any questions about them. As a matter of fact, why not just disable them until the base FAQ issue is resolved.

dobeerman’s picture

faq_ask and help_database unchecked.

But the faq_questions table should have the same text in it.
this table is empty

PS. give me you working module pls.

nancydru’s picture

I just downloaded the -dev version and it's working fine for me.

dobeerman’s picture

I'm seem to be having the same problems that beerman had.

I tried uninstalling faq_ask, and deactivating all the associated modules (faq, helpers_database & faq_ask) and then installing them one at a time in that order, but the problem doesn't change.

As you can see from the screenshots, not only do I not see the question text in the faq page(s) but the entire question field is missing from the node creation and editing forms.

Do you think that this is caused by a corruption in the database tables? which ones should I look at, and how will I know what is wrong? What do you suggest I try next to resolve this problem?

Thanks much, Mikey

MikeyLikesIt and I went through the issue on IRC together. We determined that the cause of the problem was because Automatic Node Titles module was enabled for FAQ nodes. This module causes the title field to be hidden on the form and a title to be automatically generated. This is not the desired usage for FAQ nodes. Fortunately you can disable automatic node titles on a per content type basis and that fixed the issue.

Cheers,
Stella

i'm seeing tyhis problem myself in all faq views. i get an empty title. answers all display properly.
see here: http://ucbprogram.com/faq

-snip-

-/snip- ^
NOTHING DISPLAYED...

have tried version 2.10, 2.11 and latest dev.
i added and removed faq_ask, helpers etc.
faq_ask is not installed
auto_titles not installed.

theme function when calling 'node_load' appears to be missing the node title.
faq_question table does not update when new faq is added and faq weights appears to be populated correctly.

any ideas?

toasterz’s picture

oops
here's the actual div with placeholder text

<div class="faq_question faq_dt_hide_answer"><a href="/node/80">NOTHING, NADA, NO TITLE HERE</a></div>

stella’s picture

You problem is slightly different. The following is what is generated for the question text:

<div class="faq_question faq_dt_hide_answer"><a href="/node/20"></a></div>

(FYI: you need to use <code> tags to paste code in).

As you can see it does generate the question link, but doesn't place the text there. I'm wondering if you ran update.php when upgrading the module. Can you run update.php again to see if it fixes the issue? Is there anything in your faq_questions table for node 20 at all?

Cheers,
Stella

@toasterz: Let me guess, you are using Panels? This is a known bug with a very long issue open. #213751: $node->title removed from template variables

toasterz’s picture

not using panels...
update.php has been run as appropriate. :)

all the the faq's displays properly as nodes...

here's the faq_questions for node 20

I'm using faq 5.x-2.x-dev (2008-Sep-05) and not seeing this. I changed my settings to "Clicking on question opens/hides answer under question" and not categorized, which is what yours looks like. All my questions show up. The "system" table lists my schema as "2."
