Helo,

We used easy blog on site http://www.workingfromanywhere.com.au/ and it is working perfect there. On home page we used a module named "TOP PICKS" which is an easy blog module "EasyBlog Top Blog Entries" . Now we face one issue that this module is not showing the top rated blogs. As we gave the rating on a blog http://www.workingfromanywhere.com.au/working/wfa-tips/entry/simplifying-the-paper-trail which have 5 votes rating but is not showing in the home page module. All the entries are fixed in this module but as per our understanding this should be changed as a rating is given as highest on a blog.

Kindly check and let us know the functionality of this module if we are not understanding this correctly. Please reply asap.


Thanks
Hello Vijay,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

It seems like you are using an older version of easyblog (version . Can I have the permission to update your easyblog to the latest version and see if that will fix the issue? Do note that the update process will override any core customization that you might have done in your site. Please perform a necessary backup before the update to avoid any issue.

Hello,

Please find the admin details in attached file and upgrade easy blog. We have taken the backup of site and when you will upgrade the extension after that we will restore our customizations. Last time we did the customizations in core files but at this time we will do this in override. But we have also done one customization in controller file and as per our knowledge we can not override it. So we need to do that change again in core file?

We also made override of easy blog modules to change their designs. But all these are in template override.

Thanks,

Hello Vijay,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

It seems like the module is checking for the site wide entry and the blog entry that has 5 stars rating is contributed in andy's blog instead of site wide. That's why the blog is not displaying in the module. I've temporarily apply the fix inside your /modules/mod_topblogs/helpers.php to ignore the sitewide checking and the all the blog entry with highest rating will be displayed properly now inside the module.

By the way I've performed the easyblog upgrade on your site with the latest version and regarding with the your customization in controller file, you need to change it again in the core file as the controller cannot be override.

Hope these help

Hello,

Thanks for the upgrade. Now we will restore our customization in override.

And for future upgrade we need to restore controller file and module helper file (which you have changed). Right?

Thanks & Regards,
Vijay
