I think this is a great idea but I can seem to get this module to work at all.

I've tried both the rc4 and the dev version.

The dev version fails to create the button. I've played with my site, changing the theme to a plain vanilla Garland theme, then removed all extra modules one by one. However the button still fails to appear.

I can get this button to appear in the rc4 version only if I run and update.php on the site. The it appears in my custom theme. However no matter what I do the actual contextual content does not appear.

I've installed the content types according to the instructions and also the admin help. I can see and modify the actual help content. However, in context, no matter what I do, I only get "No context help available for this section".

I've also imported the FAQs and they don't appear.

This seems like a great idea. Is anyone working on it?

Cheers

Clarification: By button, I meant the help button!

Okay, I'm doing a bit of looking.

For some reason, in the dev version, line 206 of contexthelp.module, which sets the button, is commented out!

Still working out why the calls to the contenthelp content is not working...

Module is not broken, and generally works, however i need to go back to the drawing board with it and remove the CCK portion and make the module use field info and other hooks so it can create everything rather than relying on other modules which sometimes have issues and do not work as expected on different systems.

It doesnt work for me either, when I enable this module I can't even access /admin or /admin/build/module. The page never even loads :(

edit: I was able to correct this by installing updates on a dozen or so other modules I had installed.

No, this module is not completely broken.

But it is very picky about having all of its dependent modules installed and being configured correctly.

I am closing this issue because the basic question has been answered. Please open new issues for new, specific problems.
