Hi
I think I may have placed this in the wrong listing before... I got not replies, so please accept my apologies for adding it here as well if i am wrong... or maybe nobody has the answer
I recently purchased ’Frontpage Slideshow’ from frontpageslideshow.net to work with Modx (I have used it with Joomla several times but now I have switched to Modx).
They have release a version which apparently works with any CMS.... although things are not going to plan...
I created a snippet called ’frontpageslider’ and have called the following code in my page using the snippet:
The original snippet code is:
<?php
// START of "Frontpage Slideshow" settings
$nameOfSlideshowToDisplay = "demoslideshow"; // Enter the name of your slideshow. Slideshows are in folders inside /fpss/slideshows/.
$URLofyoursite = "http://www.IHaveRemovedMyURL.co.uk"; // Enter your site’s URL.
$AbsoluteServerPathofyoursite = "/user/htdocs/assets/snippets"; // Enter the root path of your site on the server.
// do not edit below this line
include_once($AbsoluteServerPathofyoursite."/fpss/mod_fpslideshow.php");
// END of "Frontpage Slideshow" settings
?>
However, when called the code in my test page i got the following error:
_________________________________________________________________________
PHP error debug
Error: include_once() [function.include-once]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/user/htdocs/assets/snippets/fpss/mod_fpslideshow.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/tmp:/home/default/IHaveRemovedMyURL.co.uk)
Error type/ Nr.: Warning - 2
File: /home/default/IHaveRemovedMyURL/user/htdocs/manager/includes/document.parser.class.inc.php(769) : eval()’d code
Line: 8
_________________________________________________________________________
I then looked up the ’open_basedir restriction’ and tried the code below instead as advised:
<?php
// START of "Frontpage Slideshow" settings
$nameOfSlideshowToDisplay = "demoslideshow"; // Enter the name of your slideshow. Slideshows are in folders inside /fpss/slideshows/.
$URLofyoursite = "http://www.IHaveRemovedMyURL.co.uk"; // Enter your site’s URL.
$AbsoluteServerPathofyoursite = "/user/htdocs/assets/snippets"; // Enter the root path of your site on the server.
// do not edit below this line
//include_once($AbsoluteServerPathofyoursite."/fpss/mod_fpslideshow.php");
include_once($modx->config[’base_path’].’assets/snippets/fpss/mod_fpslideshow.php’);
// END of "Frontpage Slideshow" settings
?>
I now get this error:

Can anyone help?
I have tried moving things around but so far nothing has worked... I am experienced with CMS’s but no so much with PHP and I can’t figure out what is going wrong... thepaths are correct but it won’t work.
Thanks
