You sure thats the right hack? Cuz its not what I'm lookin for.

[cerebro]

Check the link....is talking about the site you add the screenshot..Wiregamez.
you can add some images to particuly forum...and if you dont add, use the default.

That made no sense whatsoever :confused:

[MindTrix]

In other words he thinks you are asking how to add the images next too the catagories, Example the logo for the Nintendo section etc, which isnt what you want to know :)

[MaDCaT75]

Thats it I wanna die :cry:

[Shell Geeks]

X, This is awesome! I made some custom changes on mine and they came out great! http://www.shellgeeks.com/forum/ I tried using AG's add-on but received just the red x and the tables out of whack, so I wrote my own to get the images for each column.

Kitten,
I sent you the info to fix yours and add the images using my codes, you know how to reach me if you still need help :D

[MindTrix]

Kitten? Dare we ask :p

[Shell Geeks]

Kitten? Dare we ask :p

nope :x

[EvilCrow]

Installed and works great...but I have one prob...

I want the links to goto my gallery sections insted of goin to a thread..Can this be done??? and if so how?

[MindTrix]

Do you mean the link to the catagorys? If so when creating the catagory, use simple HTML code, i believe that should work.

[Shell Geeks]

Just go into AdminCP -> modify forum. For the forum name type this </a><A HREF="htttp://www.yourdomain-stuff-goes-here.com/gallery/showgallery.php/cat/501">Members Photos</A>

Now it should look like your forum is called Member Photos, but when you click on it, it will take you into the catagory of the photo gallery you selected. Before you do this I suggest first serring it up as a forum and make a few posts so you don't have a bunch of sections with zero posts and nevers.

[MindTrix]

htttp??? ;) hehe

[LeYannos]

Hello,
First, Happy New Year...
I've try to install this great hack... in the TXT file, for index.php:
" global $DB_site,$bbuserinfo,$iforumcache,$ipermcache,$imo dcache,$session,$accesscache,$ usergroupdef,$noperms;
global $showlocks,$hideprivateforums,$showforumdescriptio n,$forumhomedepth,$dateformat, $timeformat,$enableaccess;
global $bbforumview;"

I dont have "global $bbforumview;" in my "index.php"... is it normal?

After install, i don't find options in my admin panel...
Any ideas?
I'm running vbulletin 2.3.3 (with french style)
Thanks in advance.

[DougCooper]

I've got this on my board now :


www.ukmusicworldwide.com/forum

But I want to use the column for the list of sub forums in the section 'Non Music'

How can I do this ?

[Shell Geeks]

Hello,

I dont have "global $bbforumview;" in my "index.php"... is it normal?

After install, i don't find options in my admin panel...


Yeah, I didn't have it either, but it works awesome still ( http://www.shellgeeks.com/forum/ )

The options is inside of vB options under Forums Home Page Options. You should now have "Parent forums column arranged subforums" and "Display Forum Columns"

[Shell Geeks]

But I want to use the column for the list of sub forums in the section 'Non Music'

How can I do this ?

If you want to keep the column you have now too just go into the admin options in the cp and change 3 to 3 93

you can add as many as you want, just put a space between each forum id.

[LeYannos]

Sorry Shell Geeks but i don'have it... look at my screen. My 5 news templates are created but no options in my admin panel...
Any ideas?

[LeYannos]

Hello,
I have all re-installed (without the french style) and its working... but now i've some problems in cp and index forum.
In admin panel, i have all options but 3 times (pict 1) and on the index, i have a stange blue cell and a space between the forums...
How i can remove them (blue cell and space)?

Another question: Is it possible to have the same width in columns? with percentage per example... (50%/50% if 2 columns, 33%/33%/33% if 3...)
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for your help...

thx alot !

Hello, I've installed the hack, but then there's no option on the admincp...?

Under vBulletin Options > Forums Display Options > ... there's no option! Just like LeYannos' problem...

What could possibly wrong? I run vbulletin 2.3.0 with vbt 1.0 style...

And I think on the hack installation instruction, there's no instruction to add an option to the admincp?

please help! Thanks a lot.

[Xenon]

you have to run the queries, the queries add the option

[J.C.]

you have to run the queries, the queries add the option

I've ran the queries... its the first step that I did on installing this hack

[Xenon]

well, then the options are there.

[J.C.]

oh yeah... I ran it again and its there...

its under Forums Home Page Options right...

thanks a lot... now how do I 'columns' it...

[J.C.]

um is it possible to make 2 categories to be columned?

[Xenon]

hmm, theoretically yes, but it's not really tested or done by myself.

the vb3 version of this hack has that feature on the other hand ;)

[J.C.]

by the way... why is the forums descriptions disappeared? Is there anyway to keep the forums descriptions? how?

Thanks a lot for your helpful replies! :D

[Xenon]

it's just not in the template, but you can add it to the template if wanted :)

i just thought it looks better without a description

[J.C.]

um Im not familiar with it... how to add it to the template? :D

[Xenon]

just look up the other forumhome forumbits templates, and you'll the the variables to use :)

Thanx Mr. Xenon FOR this Great Hack

i have installed it successfully ! and i have added forum home $description variable and

its working fine . but , when i tried to add some additional variables for ( number of

posts and Last Post Info ) , table of the forum home has been changed with bad width

can you expalin to us , How to install this hack by keeping the same variables in vbulletin

( # of posts and Last post info ) ??


- Sorry for bad english :)

- regards

[Xenon]

it is mainly a template modification.

you just have to edit the colforum tablebit and ad $forum[postcount] or $forum[threadcount] into the needed positions

[J.C.]

um... Xenon... I got a problem here... you can see it here: http://www.ffindo.com/vbb

I edited the template so that it will not include forum's title and add the descriptions variable only.

I added the description of each forums via admin panel (of course:D) with html to show an image...

everthing was working fine... until I added the 9th forum, which is 'Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles' on my board (ffindo.com/vB), the cell width changed, the right cell and left cell is not even. Please see it here: http://www.ffindo.com/vbb

I used this very same code to add images on description for all:

<img border="1" src="image.jpg" width="300" height="75">

I don't think the code above affect the cell/table, because it only goes 'weird' when I added the 9th forums.

Then after that what I do is deleting some of the still empty forums, and still the cell width is not even.

Then I add the forums again, still, its most likely will not go back to normal one.

Hope you can understand my explanation, can you help Xenon?

Thanks a lot.

[J.C.]

hmm weird... the address supposed to be http://www.ffindo.com/vB with two b, not one.

I attached an image of my board address to this post :D

[Zachery]

hmm weird... the address supposed to be http://www.ffindo.com/vB with two b, not one.

I attached an image of my board address to this post :D
btw its spelled vB not vBB

[Xenon]

be sure you have this:<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}" valign="top" $width> in your template.

this is the most important part.

but i cannot help you more, as i don't have vb2 boards anymore, and also don't have the hacks anymore to tra things out ;)

[J.C.]

Thank you very much Xenon... its working now :D:D:D

[Xenon]

:)

glad to hear that :)

[UnForums2k]

how do i drop or remove one of the sql quiries i ran it to many times lol

[Xenon]

*gg*

add the line $debug = 1; into your config.php

then you can deleten single settings from within your ACP :)

[UnForums2k]

i dont understand were i go to do this in the CP???

[UnForums2k]

i added right before the verry end ?>

[Xenon]

it doesn't matter where you add it :)

when your debug mode is set, and you log into the acp the next time, there is a new option on the left, vbulletin settings (or so, i haven't used vb2 since a long time;))
there you can manually delete them :)

[msu]

hmm, i don't know then.

that's why i haven't clicked on give support to this hack, it's quite complicated as i realized :)

maybe for vb3 this would be easier to do, so i'll code the hack into vb3 :) and look how it'll work for forumdisplay.php



thanx mr xenon

for last replay for me

but wanted to ask you if this hack included in vb3 or not yet ?

[Xenon]

well i have released a vb3 version of this hack, yes, but also just the forumhome version.

but iirc the working instructions for forumdisplay could be in the support thread.

[Battle_Ring]

Im Not 100% Sure Someone Hasent Said This, But My Index.php Doesnt Have Everything, IE....

global $DB_site,$bbuserinfo,$iforumcache,$ipermcache,$imo dcache,$session,$accesscache,$ usergroupdef,$noperms;
global $showlocks,$hideprivateforums,$showforumdescriptio n,$forumhomedepth,$dateformat, $timeformat,$enableaccess;
global $bbforumview;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I Dont Have THat Bolded Line, I Think Its Whats Giving Me The Index Error Once I Upload, I Even Add The Line In, And It Still Doesnt WOrk....Help Me

[Xenon]

actually it's not required to have that line, as you just have to put code below, but if you don't have that line, i think you have hacked your index.php already and that another hack makes problems, so i suggest you get rid of the troublemaker first.
