Be noticed that if should be interest for my module I'll extend it a lot. I build that version for my needs (in a private club), where I wouldn't like to have more feautures. This dosen't mean that I can't add feautures.

Permissions don't seem to work. I forgot to set them, yet I was able to post a profile.

MaryTheG(r)eek
10-13-2006, 09:39 AM
the instructions says that it gives permission automatically, but in the usergroup options it says no.. BUT I WAS STILL ABLE TO create a profile..
??? The instructions say:
By default none usergroup has permissions to use vbMates, so you need to give permissions to any group.

When i tried to update the permission to yes.... i got an dbase error... BUT ITS STILL SHOWING MY PROFILE......
Maybe there is confusion with something else? Have you changed Admin's permissions too? I just changed permissions to No and back to Yes, and everything was working.

The current versions sends the email to user's email address. I did it this way because if I was using the internal mailing (which was much easier), the user should turn email accept on, something that many people dont like.

Email was turned on. Never came. By pagination I mean if you have 50 to 1000 male signing up, displaying them all in one page could give you a pretty long page.

If I remember well I added pagination every 15 profiles. Not?? I'll check it in a few hours after my lunch:knockedout:

Posted this yesterday but the thread was taken down. I had more questions and suggestions but its way to early in the morning for me to think clearly.

Question.

* My site is state specific, can It be changed to search by counties, instead of having all states listed?

* Wok with vb 3.6.x ?

Suggestion

* Work with vbplaza so people have to "pay" to post a profile/view/etc.

From what I understood from the previous listing for this item, this is the "LITE" version of the modification. Has that status changed? The reason I ask is because this modification could be done with custom profile fields and some new templates. I am not knocking the modification. Many users don't have the ability (yet) to create something like this. I am curious to what the "full" version would include if this is still just the lite version. (I am guessing the other thread was killed for advertising the paid product, so i am not asking for links or anything. I just want details.)

When I'll find someone to upgrade my PHP and MySQL in my server then I'll be able to test it in 3.6.x :rolleyes: I installed 3.5.5 in my server just because these limitations of my server. But I dont think that it will have problem to work there. I use only a few functions from vb's API and I dont think that they've changed.

All the drop lists are located in the directory /vbmates/includes for easy modifications. As for the paid version should be $49 the normal one and $79 the Adult version.
As for what you asked about fields, just came in my mind to put switches on every field so anybody can use only the fields that he/she wants. Cool?:cool:

For the moment Pro version has the following extra features:

Search Engine
Admin will approve or reject profiles
More permission types instead of one for all actions
Featured profiles by gender (eg in Female's list will appera Males and vs)
Admin can choose Internal Mailing (not vB's) or external
In the external mailing user will be able to add attachment and not only text
Many other things that you'll suggest:-)


As for the Greek translation, sure I'll done it, but for the moment I'm working in English.

The funny is that I had post a long reply for you but they deleted it. Any way, if you're a bit familiar with templates you can remove the country list but if you can wait for around a week the new version will contain switchers to all fields so you can decide which field will be active and which not.

So, sorry !! I just read it more carefully and I got my mistake. I've read counties as countries. Sure you can change the list vbmates_states.inc.php which is on /vbmates/includes/ directory and add anything you want. Don't forget to change the phrase: <phrase name="vbmates_state"><![CDATA[State]]></phrase> to <phrase name="vbmates_state"><![CDATA[County]]></phrase>.

Also my suggestion is to change Countries to States. Sure should be members coming from your State but living to another one. It's the same way (change the file: vbmates_countries.inc.php and then change the phrase). I tried to make my module as more friendly as it can be.

Many other Dating scripts also allow to a member to post more than one profiles. It comes from the fact that there were couples who wanted to have somehow a double profile.
In next version I'm planing to put it a switch so Admin can decide if will allow multiple profiles or not.

You made my day:rolleyes: So, having 80% of it's features, mean that I must sell my module at $280 ($349*80%) :) In any case, I know this script as I'm using it in one of my sites (http://www.greekcouples.com). It's very good script (maybe the one that I didn't wasted my money), but believe me it's no so good for Dating. It's a community script.

Do you mean extra fields? It's easy to add this feature but I dont think that there is a sense to do it. There are so many fields available. If ou want to add a field you can replace one of the excitings just replacing the drop list's values and changing the title.

I have also a question...I've seen that after saving the profile the user can't change all fields anymore so when making a mistake the whole profile must be deleted and replaced by a new one.
Is this hard to change?

Keep up the good work, awesome hack!

Today I'll finally upgrade PHP and MySQL to my server so I'll be able to upgrade to vb 3.6.2 to be sure that everything working well. But as I know (you can see it in posts before) there are users who are using it without problem in 3.6.2
In any way, before installing 3.6.2 and see the database differencies (if there are) I can't say anything for sure.

All phrases can be easily translate for multi language interface. Also the values of drop lists can be translating but you can have only in one language.

Check the file size of the image in your server. Some times after a time out in uploading there is a filename in server but has 0 kb.
Also try to download this file and open it in your PC to see if it's corrupt or not.

I'm not sure why the pictures not showing up anymore, I'm noticed before but I'm unable to reproduce at the moment, it happens after some time???

Is there a way to set a max filesize for the picture, some users have a huge one?

I'm happy to announce that vbPals, the special version of vbMates for Hot sites, has just released, but due to the nature of this version you can find it only in my site:
http://www.vbgreece.com

Just for your information, I'm working now on a PhotoVote module.

Take care
Maria

Consider doing a rating module for Photopost vbaGallery. Thousands of us already have that script with members categories loaded with pictures.

Really I can't understand you. Some days ago you've wrote:
"photovote would be my choice too, like hotornot.com
for years people have been looking for that".
Now you're saying just the opposite. In any case, I know very well Photopost, I've 3 licences of it since it was only in Perl (later they port it to PHP). I dont think that it has something in common. It's more gallery that Hot or Not.

CMOD has nothing to do with vBulletin. It's a Linux command to give to a directory in your website (server) access or read or write. Usally directories have permissions 755 which means that users can read but only the Admin (let's say) has the ability to write. In this directory /vbmates/photos/ you need also write permissions so the photos can be uploaded.
Depending on the FTP client that you're using to upload files in your server see how you can CMOD a directory to 777.

thank you much. linux is next on my list to learn after all this html and vb. im using the windows explorer for ftp uploads. i right clicked on the photos folder and checked the boxes to allow write for users, too. i'll try and see if that did it. vbmates becomes popular with our members, we will purchase the premium version later this winter.

thanks again for all your knowlege. much appreciated.

[clicked install]

That's the meaning of Respection for some people. Not only removed my copyright, but, ever worst, they replaced it with their own. Seems that they're so idiots that they don't even know how to remove a copyright.

Hi for some reason i'm still having issue that it won't display the image.

path to my vbmates/photos is set to 777. I noticed the images that is under photos is not set to 777. Any reason why is not update the permission to the image file as well?

NO, the images not need to be CMOD to 777. They must be as they're (644). Only the /vbmates/photos/ must be 777 so the script can write image on it. Please check your server's documentation. Some servers needs 775 or 755 or I don't know. 777 is the common used but.... Check to see what you must put as value to be access/read/write by all. A good idea is if you've any other script that uploads images or files to see what's the number there.

Microhellas, thanx for ur respond. I check my images folder default is set to 644. The only problem is with this vbmates that the image is automatically set to 600. I had check the Vbmates/photos is set to 777. If I change permission on the image from 600 to 644 I was able to view the image. But it shouldn't do this all the time when members upload new images. What could be the problem? I don't have any problem with other hack displaying images. Angkor

I check with my hosting today this what they say:

The upload script automatically changed the file permissions to 600. You need to correct the script to have the proper default permissions for the images.

I did not say photopost. I said PhotopostVBGallery which is different and unlike photopost is 100% vb integrated.

What is different with what I said then, and what I am saying now?

Photovote or photorating will be my first choice. I said to consider doing a module for vbagallery as it has members categories already loaded with images. Then we would select those images for photo rating.

If you want to reinvent the wheel and complicate things by having two of the same, like you currently have 2 profiles in the same site, then all the best.

Anyway, I just looked at the picture of hot or not. Looks nice. If it can be independent from vbmates which I don't want to use, and use vb usergroups permissions instead, I'll buy it as a standalone and let people upload pictures and start from scratch.

I did not say photopost. I said PhotopostVBGallery which is different and unlike photopost is 100% vb integrated.

Really I didn't knew that there is different module. Reading Photopost I thought that it was that terrible (in support) script. And I'm wondering how they didn't started shouting because someone used the word "Photopost".
Well, I want to make clear something for all my current and future modules. I dont plan to follow the way of any type integration. The reason is very simple. Any time when the other module change something, I must follow their changes. And if they're real proffesional maybe they'll give me all the neccesary information. But imagine, I asked for vbAdvanced some documentation on how to port my module with vbAdvanced and one month now I have no reply. Imagine that I'm a commercial customer of their Links module.
I read somewhere here a very,very real topic. Is from the Author of WebMail module. He became crazy when he has to change his code with any new version of vB. Why to place myself in troubles? Why eg to use vbmail() to send an email while I can easily use mail()?

Lionel

Humm, I am surprised at vbadvanced. I have been with them for 2+ years and support has been excellent.

It's very easy to do modules. I just did a bunch of them for a site that is doing exactly what vbmates is doing, but with usergroups. PM me if you need some help. BTW they were the original maker of vbaGallery before photopost took it away from them. There must be thousands of copies out there.

And I agree with you. Photpost is very prehistoric. I used them from the Perl days, until vbaGallery came along.
