Flashblocks Flash CMS Component
(Flash Content Management System)

Hi Me again!!

Just wonederd if you could help? I have created a site which uses flashblocks, The site seemed to be working OK, but I have reports that every so often the text and images controlled by Flashblocks does not show up. Is there anything I'm doing wrong that could cause this?

Cheers

I'm having the same issue. I know my text changes are being saved because I have opened the dataFile.xml file and see them there. I'm just kind of baffled on why they don't show up!

Is there a quick solution?

Cheers,

Each Editblock needs an editblockID. This can be achieved on one of two ways.

1. Give each Editblock an editblockID through the component inspector.
2. Or the editblockID will be created for you from the path to the Object that has the Editblock attached to it. If you take this route then make sure that each Object, that has an Editblock attached to it, has an instance name. Also make sure that each movie clip in the path to each Object also has an instance name. So for example if you have an Editblock attached to a text field and that text field is in a movie clip then make sure that both the movie clip and the text field both have instance names. If you have not entered an Editblock's editblockID then the entire path needs to be named because it will become the editblockID.
