When purchasing MMI6, I didn't realize I was paying for the privelege to advertise one of your businesses for you. I removed div id="DivVideoJive" from the form, but that caused problems with Rating and Review approval (even when gAllowRatingReviewOverride is set to "no", override is still allowed). Replacing the Jive Media div fixed the override problem.

I suppose the answer is to remove all the document.get statements relative to DivVideoJive, but before doing that, I'd like confirmation that doing so will not create more unexpected consequences such as the one discovered by just removing the div.

You might want to consider disclosing to you customers that your ad and website links are embedded in the form. I don't remember coming across such disclosure before purchasing your product.

Hi Ed,

Jive Media is the parent company of DNNprofessor.com. We have many requests for help from folks starting out in web video. The Jive Media video selection choice was not intended to be blatant advertising but an attempt to offer a video help and solution resource.

Since Xmod applications are not compiled and can easily be edited we did not consider it an issue.

If it is a major issue let us know and we will remove it in the next release of Move My Inventory.

To remove the Jive Media video help selection choice you can do one of the following:

Option 1. The quickest method is to open the form in an editor and perform a search for

the div named DivVideoJive

Simply replace the couple paragraphs of code, between the div tags, with possibly your own help link to video assistance.

[div align="center" id="DivVideoJive"]
Your message code here
[/div]

(Note: brackets have been used to display the code in the forum)

This will become the text the user sees before selecting a video choice.

Save the form

Done

Option 2. Set the div named DivVideoJive style to style.display='none' by opening the form in a editor and modify the function initializeForm() at the bottom of the form code. Perform a find and replace for

 document.getElementById('DivVideoJive').style.display='';

 with

 document.getElementById('DivVideoJive').style.display='none';

 There will be a total of three occurrences.

Save the form

Option 3. If you wish to totally remove the div named DivVideoJive and all associated files, you can:

1. edit the form and remove the div section named DivVideoJive,
2. remove all references to document.getElementById('DivVideoJive') in the function initializeForm() as described in option 2.
3. Save the form
4. Open the dnnp-MMI.js file that is located in your xmod >> packages >> MoveMyInventory folder and remove all references to document.getElementById('DivVideoJive') in the function displayVideoChoice().

My choice eould be Option 1. It is a 3 minute solution that allows you to customize the form to suit your own personal needs.

Best regards,
Buck

Thanks for the prompt reply Buck. I will probably go with option 2 for now, knowing the structure is there if I should want to use it for some purpose at a later date.

As for the question of it being there in the first place, I might be in the minority on this, but considering MMI is a purchased commercial application, I saw the ad/link as no different than an unwanted pop-up or adware. I understand your justification, but don't agree with it. Again, that's just my opinion and saw it as a slight blemish on an otherwise fine product.

Best Regards,
Ed

Hi Ed,

Understandable and it will be removed in version 6.1.

FYI - If you do go with option 2, you will need to also make the change to the js file. The routine in the js file will see, on edit, what video choice was selected and still retun the content.

I just tested this on the training site and I think a great resolve would be to take the two paragraphs that are directly below the video selection box:

Video is currently the best way to have your message seen and heard on the Internet.

Choose your video source.

and move the two paragraphs to the DivVideoJive area by replacing existing code within the div tags.

After saving the form, this will be the new message when a user has not yet selected a video choice.

Very quick to do and no code will be broken.

Buck

That seems to be the best solution.

On a different topic but something I found while working this same problem:

Detail View 2 Template line 1252 calls dnnp_submit_your_review.png, but that file did not exist in my package. I replaced it with dnnp_submit_comment.png which was included in the MMI6.1 package.

Hi Ed,

Good catch on the image.

As of 8/7/2009 the download purchase package includes the following revisions:

• Literal tags have been removed from the forms for XML compliance
   
• Jive logo has been removed from video selection
   
•  dnnp_submit_your_review.png has been replaced with dnnp_submit_comment.png in the user review section of both detail templates.

Thank you for your continuing support,
Buck
