Help Installing Widgets- For Dummies Version Please
  • Hi guys,

    As usual I am in need of a very basic, for dummies explanation of how ti install the widgets. This is what I have done so far and tell me if this is correct.

    1) In the Airtime admin interface, login as an administrator, go to
    the "Preferences" page, and enable the option "Allow Remote Websites To
    Access 'Schedule' Info?".

    2) Get the widgets from the "widgets" directory in the tarball.  (Download the latest from here)

    3) Put that directory on your webserver and name it "airtime-widgets".

    My website verbradio.com is hosted on Wordpress. I created the airtime-widgets directory on my Wordpress server and added the widgets folder from the tarball to that directory. Is that correct?

    Now what do I do?

    Hi Lisa,
    it looks like you did already follow this guide until point 3. https://wiki.sourcefabric.org/display/CC/Frontend+Widgets

    So just go on from point 4.

    I don't have any clue of wordpress, only Joomla!
    But as far as i remember you just have to create a new html-site and fill it with the adopted code from point 4 or 5.
    At least this is what I would do in Joomla!
    cheers

    with wordpress you can create a new page, based on your theme (you have a lot of examples with google)

    insert the widget code inside, save it, and it's done
  • I am a Joomla Junkie too – in Joomla I just did this for the weekly schedule in a standard custom module.

    So much better than an iFrame as it sizes perfectly with no scroll bars.



    I guess you can do similar/same in Wordpress.

    Change the paths and domain to suit



    This is the entire code:













    $(document).ready(function() {

    $("#scheduleTabs").airtimeWeekSchedule({

    sourceDomain: "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx",

    dowText:{monday:"Mon", tuesday:"Tue", wednesday:"Wed", thursday:"Thu", friday:"Fri", saturday:"Sat", sunday:"Sun"},

    miscText:{time:"Time", programName:"Program", details:"Details", readMore:"Read More"},

    updatePeriod: 600 //seconds

    });

    var d = new Date().getDay();

    $('#scheduleTabs').tabs({selected: d === 0 ? 6 : d-1, fx: { opacity: 'toggle' }});



    });









    Thats all folks!

    No longer using Airtime or Libretime.
