I'm just starting out, and needing a bit of help. I have a website on a shared LAMP host on which I plan to run Drupal and Scripto.

So far, I have installed Drupal, Zend, and MediaWiki.

Drupal is working, with Scripto module installed and enabled. Configuration is complete and saved, with locations for Zend and MediaWiki, and ticks against Article and Basic page Node types. I can create and publish pages, and upload images.

MediaWiki is working. I can log in, create and browse pages, and upload images.

My problem at the moment is that I don't know how to upload an image for transcription. I can upload an image via Drupal (using the image browser and uploader in the Create Article web form) and the image shows on the published page, with a Transcribe link. When I click the link, instead of seeing a zoomable image, I see this error message:

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in scripto_transcribe_form() (line 197 of /home/[user]/drupal/sites/all/modules/scripto/scripto.module).

(the line mentioned is "$html = json_decode($response->data)->embedHtml;")

So, what am I doing wrong? Is there something I need to fix?

Cheers, Peter.

The Zoom.it service is not currently working. See this thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/scripto-dev/zxBohTWonNc

We're very sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks Jim, that's useful, but disappointing.

So, if I understand correctly, because Zoom.it is not working neither WordPress nor Drupal actually work with Scripto? It would be helpful if this significant fact was revealed on the Scripto website.

I'm still keen to proceed. What do you suggest I do next?

Cheers, Peter

I saw this thread, and thought I would followup on it since I discovered a possible way to resolve this problem.

There is now a new open-source project that is creating a branch of  zoom.it : see http://zoomhub.org/ . Will this allow the drupel instance of the plugin to work again?
