How do I apply a patch file?

It is obvious latest colorbox plugin needs patching because even with drush install it is not working to load images and I've been at it all day, literally.

So found this http://drupal.org/files/patch-colorbox-1_3_21-2.patch which is recommended for the drush install of colorbox plugin with only the one colorbox folder.

But where and how do I patch it?

Very kind volunteers have been trying to help throughout the day but I am yet to get this fixed.

  • If you mean without git then everything you need to know is on the Applying Patches documentation page

  • thanks but I can't see where the module needs patching, the changes are already there.

  • It sounds like the patch file you've got doesn't apply to the version of the module you've got, so only the maintainers of that patch/module are going to be able to help really. Without reviewing the entire diff for the date ranges in question I'm not sure how anyone without prior knowledge would be able to help

You could either do it through the patch program or git. you have a good documentation here

Or do it manually.

  • Mohammed, do you think this will fix the issue of images not loading and js file not being found?

  • It depends on lots of other things. Some time it could be the file permission. as you have mentioned in the other post. you apache server does not have the permission to access the file. Have you tried installing it through the interface rather than through drush?
