Problem with recent sermons url link on the front page

As per your FAQ instructions: How do I get recent sermons to display in my sidebar or elsewhere in my theme?

I placed the following code into my template to display latest sermons on the front page,

< ?php if (function_exists('sb_display_sermons')) sb_display_sermons(array('display_preacher' => 1, 'display_passage' => 1, 'display_date' => 1, 'display_player' => 0, 'preacher' => 0, 'service' => 0, 'series' => 0, 'limit' => 5, 'url_only' => 0)) ? >

All my sermons are posted under http://mysite.com/sermons/, so a working single sermon page url is http://mysite.com/sermons/?sermon_id=1

Now, for some reason, sermon URL on the front page returns only /?sermon_id=1 part without /sermons/ before it like this: http://mysite.com/?sermon_id=1 and if I try to click this link all it does is just reloads the front page, it doesn't go the individual sermon page. How do I fix this?

Thank you,

Dmitry

Dmitry, could you post a link to your actual site, so I can take a look?

Hi Ben,

Sure, here's a link: http://dev.rsdasa.com

The recent sermons (or lectures in my case (I renamed them to better suite the site I'm working on)) are in the lower left corner of the page under title Recent Lectures.

Thank you,

Dmitry,

Thanks for bringing this bug to my attention. Here is the bug fix to get the "sb_display_sermons" function working again.

In frontend.php, replace the sb_display_sermons function. The old, 0.45.6 function looks like this:

http://pastebin.com/hQQsMkb8

Replace that code with this function:

http://pastebin.com/ZSKdJ4iB

There is one more function that needs to be changed in frontend.php, which I will detail in the next post.

Also in frontend.php, the function sb_print_sermon_link needs to be replaced.

OLD function:

NEW function:

If you have any questions about this fix, please let me know. I'm going to try to get this fix into a new version, but I don't know exactly when that new version will be released. (Hopefully in about a week.)

Just FYI: in frontend.php on line 45 if you add a space before the word "by" it outputs correctly. For me it was not putting a space between the verse reference and the word "by."

Not sure if anyone else is having that problem, but theres a fix.

I'm perfectly willing in the context of this forum to be referred to as "Lesser Ben" in favor of Ben Miller.

I made a tutorial for prettying up your sermonbrowser iTunes feed.

Thanks, Ben Meredith. I've added this change to line 45 to the next version of Sermon Browser.

For what it's worth, I've changed my signature to reflect the hierarchy of Bens.

Does that make me "Big Ben"?
