Install Instructions

The following application will allow you to display and use an alternate layout to writing personal logs. To install this application you need to perform the following steps.

1. Use the included nova_personal_log_alt.sql file to add the needed sql table fields to your nova installation.

2. Upload application/controllers/manage.php to your application/controllers folder of your Nova install replacing the existing one if you haven't already modified this file. If you already have changes in this file, it's best that you just take the contents of this file and add it into your existing manage.php file.

3. Upload application/controllers/sim.php to your application/controllers folder of your Nova install replacing the existing one if you haven't already modified this file. If you already have changes in this file, it's best that you just take the contents of this file and add it into your existing sim.php file.

4. *Upload application/controllers/write.php to your application/controllers folder of your Nova install replacing the existing one if you haven't already modified this file. If you already have changes in this file, it's best that you just take the contents of this file and add it into your existing write.php file.

   *NOTE: This file includes the _email() function. Be aware that overwriting this function with one you already have in your existing write.php file will cause you to lose any other MOD alterations you may have already installed.

5. Add the following line into your app_lang.php for your associated language(s) after the rest of the includes and before the Global items.

   /* include Alternate Personal Log Language file */
include_once APPPATH .'language/'. $language . '/ucip_lang.php';

6. Upload application/language/english/ucip_lang.php to your application/views/language/english folder of your Nova install. Translate this page into other languages and upload them to the appropriate language directories. (If you would like your language included into a future release, please contact me via email.)

7. Upload application/views/_base_override/admin/pages/manage_logs_edit.php to your application/views/_base_override/admin/pages folder of your Nova install.

8. Upload application/views/_base_override/admin/pages/write_personallog.php to your application/views/_base_override/admin/pages folder of your Nova install.

9. Upload application/views/_base_override/main/pages/sim_viewlog.php to your application/views/_base_override/main/pages folder of your Nova install.
