Port OG Block Visibility to 5.0

I have implemented the patch in my beautiful newly installed Drupal 5.0 test site, and when I choose to implement a new menu item to only be shown to the subscribed groups, I get a white blank site, and I am unable to recover.

Is there any attribute I can change on the database to retrieve my site without having to rebuild it.

Thanks
Stephen

Thanks Jax,

You are quite correct, I should do a backup before I test a new module, but I ws so keen to try this one that I forgot.
I did try disabling the module on the database, but that did not make a difference, so I rebuild it again. (it was empty anyway)

But thanks for the response, much appreciated.
I will have to wait a bit longer, and like they say patience is a virtue.

That is wonderful news.

Thanks for your time.

Thanks for the patch in #1 Jax. I tried it and it works well for me on a new site.

When I tried to update a site from 4.7.x to 5.1 I ran in to a problem that is fixed in my updated version of the patch.

I added a og_block_visibility_update_2() function to og_block_visibility.install that replace module_exist() with module_exists() in the blocks table.

I also added dependencies and version to the info file.

Is anything new happening on this patch?

It's still works well for me. A new version of the patch without "version" in the info file (updated module developer guidelines).

I've installed og_block_visibility_drupal5_2.patch in a new 5 installation and confirm the patch works excellently for me.

After applying the patch OG Groups shows up in Modules. When I activate the module I get a blank screen. when I click back in the browser I then see the following error.

warning: require_once(./modules/og/og_block_visibility/og_block_visibility.install) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\www\Apache\htdocs\includes\install.inc on line 726.

I am using apache 2.2 on windows 2003sp2. and gave users full permissions access in \includes and \modules with no luck...

any ideas?

I applied the patch and the module shows up. I can even change the settings for it, but the module is just not working.
I tried with a menu block and with the "who's online" block. I created 2 og's and some users on a test site. The blocks are not showing up.

I am using Drupal 5.2 and OG 5.x-3.1.

Anybody gor more luck? Or am I missing some specific settings not mentioned in the readme file?

I want to create group-specific navigation menu's. Perhaps there is another module or another way of working which I can use?

Trouble patching?

From sites/default/modules, after unpacking og_block_visibility-4.7.x-1.x-dev.tar.gz:

$ patch -p0 --dry-run patching file og_block_visibility/og_block_visibility.info
patch: **** malformed patch at line 12: Index: og_block_visibility/og_block_visibility.install

I checked the patch file, and it seems fine to me. Should I patching a different version of the module?

Sorry, here's the full transcript (forgot my &lt)

$ patch -p0 --dry-run <og_block_visibility_drupal5_2.patch
patching file og_block_visibility/og_block_visibility.info
patch: **** malformed patch at line 12: Index: og_block_visibility/og_block_visibility.install

Should I be patching a different version of the module?

Sorry, this is not connected to this issue but as this module is not maintained, I think this the best place to ask my question:

I need to make a block generated by "views" only visible on nodes with Audience (not public posts); so it can generate a menu for every OG automatically and don't want this menu (block) show up on other pages (e.g. home page, any node without audience).

Please note that I do not want to select a specific OG for the block to be visible but I want the block to be visible on all groups on the site

can it be done with this module? Any other way to get it done?

as far as i know we must change the status to fix and it will be closed automatically within 2 weeks

Excellent, thanks.
