Subject: E-Candle
This may be a stupid question, but is there a tutorial of some sort on installing the e-candle? I would like to use both e-candle and prayer requests on separate pages, but the instructions on the connector pdf are a little unclear concerning the e-candle.

Thanks.

Hi Derek,

After you setup the Connector plugin, you need to create an +ext template and change some things for the e-candle. We include in the Prayer connector a template that you can use. If you want to modify the template, you can copy it to fileadmin/templates (or wherever you would like in fileadmin.

After you create an +ext template, you need to edit it and change the following in the Setup:

plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.templateFile = fileadmin/ecandle/wecconnector-candle.tmpl
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.entryBackColor = #30005F
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.entryColor = #F0E030
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.msgInfoColor = #F09030
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.btnBackColor = #54226F
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.btnColor = #FFFFFF
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.contentWidth = 550px
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.contentMaxWidth = 550px
plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.listingWidth = 550px

These are the Ginghamsburg e-candle settings. You can also change these if you go to Template->Constant Editor and then select PLUGIN.TX_WEC_CONNECTOR_PI1.

Note that if you want to use the existing template in the plugin, you can set the above to:

plugin.tx_wecconnector_pi1.templateFile = typo3conf/ext/wec_connector/res/wecconnector_candle.tmpl

Let us know if you have any more questions.

-Dave
