Also why do we indicate if we have a release or not when that info is nowhere on the image page. That needs a fix too

There is a workaround fix. I could not get it to work with dragonfly so far though but I think it looks good, take a look at one of my single image pages, if you like it I will find the thread when I am back at computer

That looks fine, but I am trying to stay away from to much customising code, because on every upgrade of Sys it needs to be redone. I think that should be coded into the theme.

Also I would like to see image number replaced with a title. As you can see it also looks dumb on the pricing table, where it says image number blah blah. The number is also shown in the cart and on the paypal landing page in the line items, It looks unprofessional.

But I would appreciate it if you could give me that code and let me know on wich php file I need to insert it

Thank you.

Hey for once we understood each other without issues 🙂

Ok, 4 new licences with option purchasable upgrade YES seems to work. I have set the image price to 0 and a licence is chosen per default and then when you toggle the image size it gives you a price. Still looks messy

Ok, its not working, you can now purchase the image for free. I tested this with a non admin account.

So the RM licencing is not working at all. Hoping this can be addressed soon.

Ron, see this thread – http://www.symbiostock.org/topic/136/displaying-release-information-on-image-page/ for its evolution and variations It was started by Jsonover, adapted by Redneck and then AJT helped with the bit I wanted included, all in Leo’s code so a joint effort.

It goes in content-image.php which can be added to your basic child theme (I cannot get it to work with dragonfly), add your own name so you can find it easily and change the colour (color) to suit your text

$symbiostock_post_meta[0];  ?>"/>

Set the basic licence price , probably to the lowest licence, then add the other prices on top?

They would still be able to purchase the image wihtout any RM pricing. Its not working.

[ChristineParticipant]

We are speaking different languages again – where are you setting the price to 0

Thanks for the code. I dont use child theme. Thanks anyway.

[ChristineParticipant]

You could install child theme, do nothing with it except add the php file I would think

I tried that, but my whole site reverses back to the old look then.

[ChristineParticipant]

Ah yes, it would. As we said right at the beginning you really need to use a child theme to keep your chages

No, child theme rolls back to the view of 2.6x. Its overriding the 2.8.x look

[JoRodriguesParticipant]

Ron, you need to set your base price on every file. Your other licences are like upgrades. So if an image at your standard licence is $20 your extended licence will be $20+$100 = $120. These are just random numbers to explain. By standard price I mean for example your base price as Royalty Free, or Rights Managed, etc. Not just one price fits all.

You subtract your base price from your additional upgrade licence price and that is the amount you put into your extra upgrade licences. That way the cheapest purchase by default is always your base price and not $0. The person has to manually upgrade to Extended etc.

As for not using the child theme you are setting yourself up for nonstop editing with every new version released. The child theme contains your customisations so that when you upgrade the parent theme, and you reapply the child theme, they automatically apply to the new theme.

Thanks, but you cant do that. If I apply a base price and price upgrade for RM the buyer can still buy the image as standard RF which is not allowed. I cannot offer the same file under a default standard licence and rights managed at the same time. So it doesnt work for RM images.

I am not sure how else to explain the issue with the child theme. I know why its there, but I cant use it as when I set the child theme, it reverts my site back to the old 2.6.x lay out. I dont know how else to explain it.

[ChristineParticipant]

Pricing: How about if you set the base price at the lowest RM level and when you are creating the licence put in Yes, and 00.00 for the prices

Then for the other more expensive licences add the amount to the the licence so it is the base RM price plus the cost of the additional licences?

Your licensing page might get a bit long but that is up to you.

Jo, we have been trying to explain to Ron ever since he started about using a child theme, and that he has to set it up as he has done with the main theme initially but we don’t speak the same language and have never been able to translate it properly. He would rather edit everything with each upgrade instead of once with the child theme 🙂

No that wont work with the RM licence. Even if its the lowest RM price, if you only toggle the image, you can buy it with a default licence. There is no way to block the image to be bought without a default licence. If you ONLY toggle the image you can still purchase it and it will ALWAYS be the default licence, which is RF.

As for the child theme, its frustrating me that we dont understand each other. You say the child theme is the same as the methamorphosis theme of symbistock, but it isnt. My site the way it looks now is basic, unless Leo did extensicve customisation I dont know about. But when I NOW activate the child theme it overrides the basic symbistock methamorphosis version and reverts back to the old view of the 2.6. series. Are you saying that the child theme on your site looks the same as the methamorphosis version?
