Hello,
I have set up a website with Refresco at http://genuinerepresentation.org/
It's working great, except for one thing (quoted from the client):
I downloaded Firefox as you suggested. But with that browser, the CCD website doesn't print properly. If you go to a page that has a fair amount of content (like How Any Legislature Can Reach Consensus), Firefox prints one page with the CCD logo, one page of content and one blank page. The rest of the content simply doesn't show up.
So I've suggested using the "Printer, e-mail and PDF versions" module, but he doesn't want to go that route for the whole site. He says:
I just checked five websites at random on Firefox. Every one of them printed all the content without having to click a printer-friendly version. One of them printed the heading on a separate page -- like the CCD site -- but it printed all the content. I'll settle for that. Surely, there must be some way to get Firefox to print all the content without requiring any additional action.
So I'm wondering if there's anything we can add to the theme's code that will enable people to print webpages successfully, especially in Firefox.
Thanks,
Jim

That site prints fine for me using Firefox 3.0.7

Hmm, well it doesn't print correctly for me. I will take a look at making a print css file to format that better.
Thanks for the report!

Hi CrashTest_,
Thank you - that will be very appreciated!

This is fixed in the newest release, 6.x-1.3. I added a print.css, removed the extra stylesheet that was there for some reason, and cleaned up the template.php file a bit.

Hello - thanks a lot for the timely work on this! I have updated the site to the latest version, but upon doing so see:
* warning: include(./sites/default/themes/refresco/breadcrumb.tpl.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/solerdma/public_html/includes/theme.inc on line 979.* warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening './sites/default/themes/refresco/breadcrumb.tpl.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/solerdma/public_html/includes/theme.inc on line 979.
This is on every page of the live site, also showing for anonymous users. Hopefully this can (also) be fixed quickly...
Regards,
Jim

Hi Jim,
Have you tried running your update.php script since updating this template? Also, you may need to clear your cache ( Site Configuration -> Performance )
I can't replicate this however, so I am not sure what's going on there. I actually didn't do anything to the breadcrumb code.
Did you enable Taxonomy Breadcrumbs, or any other breadcrumb customization modules?

CrashTest_,
Thanks for the tip! Running update.php did fix the problem, and I cleared the cache for good measure.
Best,
Jim
