Yandex Garland

[@rjen]

Since Christmas is getting closer I reactivated the mod again.

Surprise that the sounds are no longer being played. They where last year when I switched the mod off.
This seams to be the same in any browser.

Uninstalling and reinstalling the mod does nog change the behaviour.

Now I have seen that the mod uses Javascript and a shockwave flash (.swf) file to play the sounds and in 2015 at least Chrome stopped supporting some flash animations. Could it be that the mod is outdated for the latest browsers?
Still have the mod activated ( www.fjr-club.nl ), but some users are missing the tingling sounds the bells used to make when hovering a mouse over the christmas balls...

I just installed the mod, and can hear the sound ok with Edge, Firefox and Chrome which are all the latest versions.

[@rjen]

What forum url is it? Maybe it is my pc?

[@rjen]

Just installed a clean smf version on my laptop, and installed the mod again, and you are right, it works now!

So there must be something conflicting in my forum...
I tried replacing various files with the original ones (sources / themes / css / script) but no luck... 

The balls move, but NO SOUND... any idea where to look?

[Tonyvic]

Sorry @rjen I haven't a clue, hopefully someone with knowledge will be along soon.

It seems I am geting closer to finding the cause. On my local forum version I have one by one installed the latest additions to my mods and I think I have found the cause: Tinyportal 1.2

Yandex works ok (with sound) then I install TP version 1.2 and the sound stops working. Uninstalling tinyportal: and the sound works again... Last year I was still on version 1.0 of TP: it worked ok then...

I did a check in the code changes TP makes but I cannot see the cause of the conflict. Maybe someone more knowledgable can help here?

TP install affects the follwing files:

1.   Extract Tree   ./Themes
2.   Extract Tree   ./Sources
3.   Extract Tree   ./tp-downloads
4.   Extract Tree   ./tp-images
5.   Extract Tree   ./tp-files
6.   Execute Modification   ./index.php
7.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/Load.php
8.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/Subs.php
9.   Execute Modification   ./SSI.php
10.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/QueryString.php
11.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/Subs-Editor.php
12.   Adapt Database   install.php
13.   Execute Code   do_hooks.php

Fixed!

I found the conflict: in TPortal.php.
As a result jquery is loaded twice: once by Yandex, once by TP...

Code Select Expand


// Load JQuery if it's not set (anticipated for SMF2.1)
if (!isset($modSettings['jquery_source']))
$context['html_headers'] .= '
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.1.min.js"></script>';


Since it suggests it is there for SMF 2.1 I commented out the code: and now it works again. I see no direct downside on Tinyportal...

Good morning!
Thank you for your investigation! It will be helpfull for another TP users.

[@rjen]

Also a note to Yandexgarland mod developer, for future reference:

come SMF 2.1 you will need to remove the jquery call from the yandexgarland mod as SMF 2.1 calls jquery by default.

I know it's almost 3 years ago, but anyone still using this?
Last year in Firefox the bells and sounds worked.

I did not add any new mods, but now I only see the bells, no sound in Chrome and Firefox, which did some major changes the past year.
With Internet Explorer 11 the sound still works.

These are my mods:
1.    Contact Page    3.2
2.    SMF 2.0.15 Update    1.0
3.    YandexGarland    1.2
4.    SimplePortal    2.3.7
5.    Remove "Last edit" mod    0.2.5
6.    Tapatalk SMF 2.0 Plugin    4.4.1
7.    Redirection Topics    1.0.3
8.    Downloads System    2.5
9.    Image Upload    1.0.0    [ Install Mod ] [ List Files ] [ Delete ]
10.    Optimus    1.9.6
11.    Birthday On Register    1.0
12.    My Posts SMF2    1.2

But they were present end 2016 too, only versions are updated.
Anyone else having the sound issue this year with FF or Chrome?

[Black Tiger]

Seems YandexGarland is not 100% SSL compatible, it formerly also worked without issues with Dziners's Xmas-20a theme. But not if you scroll to the end of the page it will keep giving white space and keeps loading when Yandex is enabled.

For example I had to change this code:

Code Select Expand

http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js
to

Code Select Expand

https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js
for the bells to move in Chrome and Firefox. Sound still did not work and we got that sudden conflict with the Dziners theme.

If disabled, problem is gone, now so this mod really needs some updating.

[@rjen]

Thanks for the tip on the SSL. I had the same issue: now the balls move again.

I am still missing the sounds (fix I did two years ago still in place) ... any idea where to look for that one ?

[Shambles]

You'll have to install/enable Adobe Flash to get sound

[Black Tiger]

Flash is installed and enabled.

@Arjan: nope, sorry, don't know where too look for that. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the code is not to be found on that http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/  url in swfobject.min.js? That's redirecting to https://github.com/swfobject/swfobject nowadays.
I tried changing that to the github url, but that did not have any effect.

Any clue on why it suddenly conflicts with that x-mas theme so it keeps scrolling when getting to the bottom?
