Low Variables compatible with Publisher?

Gavin Lawrie 15 Apr 2015 16:22 question, complete

Just curious. Marked on Devot-ee as being an untested combination.

    I have done nothing in LV to enable Publisher support. IE, there are no language columns or references to the Publisher add-on in the LV core.

    Hi Low. Sorry to bother you, but I just tried to install Publisher alongside Low Variables, and the whole site is now down (dev, of course) and I'm getting this error:

    Unable to load the requested file: helpers/low_variables_helper.php

    I don't actually need LV-Publisher integration (although I'm sure many would find that valuable), but it certainly would be great to have them both working properly on the same site. If you've seen this kind of thing, do you happen to have any ideas on what I might need to do to get them both working?

    Thanks heaps
    Andrew

    Are you on the latest version of both addons?

    Hi Low, and thanks for the quick response. Yes, I'm on the most recent versions of both Low Variables (2.61) and Publisher (1.65). Low Variables has been in action on this site for ages, but I installed Publisher just now. The problem occurred immediately. I will do my own work to try and resolve the issue, but if you do happen to have any suggestions that would be great!

    Thanks heaps
    Andrew

    Hi Andrew,

    Good luck. Would be good if you could post back whatever you find out - we're looking to put LV on a site with Publisher (i.e. other way round to you)... so anything you find out about how to make them play nicely would be helpful to know.

    Hi people. I seem to have got things working, and I'm off and running at least. The issue appeared to be that I had installed, and later removed, an earlier version of Publisher at some stage in the past. In the end I got things working by some combination of removing a few tables, turning on and off extensions, updating modules, and closing and reopening the browser. I can't really tell you which of those actually got things working, but in the end it all came to life.

    Publisher integration with LV would be great, by the way, if you ever had the time to get round to it ;-)

    All the best
    Andrew

    Out of curiosity, what would you consider to be "Publisher integration with LV"? What would that look like?
