Previewpane in RC2?

[blodan]

Hi!

im one of those that likes the preview pane

My question is, how do you get previewpane going in RC2?

i checked that everything was as it should in this thread (for activating the previewpane) http://trac.roundcube.net/ticket/1484389
but it seems everything is already there in RC2, except the main config variables, so i added them but it doesnt show up?

Anyone know what more i need to do to get it going in RC2?

It seems that there's a bug in

You can fix it by replacing this line in config/main.inc.php

Code Select Expand

rcmail_config['dont_override'] = array();
By this one :

Code Select Expand

rcmail_config['dont_override'] = array( 'preview_pane' );

Hmm, this didn't work for me

[blodan]

didnt work for me neither

I have this same problem.

Resolve:

I drop database, and put new from installation RC-2.

Now works fine.

Can you tell me how to "drop" the database and reinstall? This doesn't seem to be part of the regular upgrade instructions. Will I lose other prefs (contacts, etc)?

Odd thing is, I have one account that shows the preview pane, and one that doesn't. But the pref is no longer in the RoundCube app.

Thanks for any help in getting this rolling again,

Jeremy

Hi,


I cant explain this, but for me working.

 I'm not programmer.




Try log in to your webmail using NEW ACCOUNT ( account what you never log in ).

If, you can see prev view panel, just delete all "cache" records in database.

Put this in the main.inc.php . This line is in the RC2 and not in RC1 (however by default it says FALSE).  

I tried it and it worked. Apparently the database has nothing to do with it

// enable composing html formatted messages (experimental)
$rcmail_config['enable_htmleditor'] = TRUE;

So, I'm like others, can get preview pane to work with a new user to RCmail, but not an existing one.

I tried everything noted in this thread, deleting all the rows from the cache table with no luck. I then went into the users table to see that the preferences of my old user had much more information in it than the new user. I saw that one of those elements was preview_pane (it looked like this "preview_pane";b:0;s:14), well, not caring about other things in that field, I did a sql update on the preferences field for my user that replaced my old preference with what's in the new user's preference. *voila* preview pane!

I'll bet that you could just copy the entire preferences field of the old user and change the "preview_pane";b:0;s:14 to "preview_pane";b:1;s:14 and it would allow it, that's just a guess, but I'm betting that b is a boolean...

I think the bug is in program/steps/settings/func.inc in function "rcmail_user_prefs_form":

Change
 

Code Select Expand

$no_override = !empty($CONFIG['dont_override']) ? array_flip((array)$CONFIG['dont_override']) : array('preview_pane'=>true);to
 

Code Select Expand

$no_override = !empty($CONFIG['dont_override']) ? array_flip((array)$CONFIG['dont_override']) : array();
and you should be able to enable the preview in the user settings.

Perhaps you also should set the following values in your config/main.inc.php
 

Code Select Expand

$rcmail_config['preview_pane'] = TRUE;
That worked for me with the database of an version slightly above RC1

This worked! Fantastic! You totally rock!

Hi sirtobi,

Thanks a lot for your guide. I'm now able to set the preview on or off in the user settings. However, it shows the preview pane in a horizontal mode.

If I want it to be in vertical, how can I accomplish it?

Thank you sirtobi! This worked like a charm! I can now choose "Show preview pane" under my user preferences

I love it
