ok well after installed the post increasment hack I think it really bunnged up my board. now another site just closed and we will have 100% of there traffic, and AHHHHH new users have no post count! :eek: I reverbed the hacked files but that didnt work, so I think its the DB changes made! plus another hint is when I try to update stars and such, I get this..
Invalid SQL: SELECT starlevel,starimg FROM stars WHERE minposts<= ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1' at line 1
could that be a clue to the problem?

now I wanna reverse the DB changes made, how would I do that when this is the changes I made?
alter table user add postdirection smallint(5) DEFAULT 1 NOT NULL;
alter table user modify posts int(6);
alter table usertitle modify minposts int(6);

thanks anyone who can even lend a few mins of help, its gunna be ugly tomrrow if I have 20-50 new registers and none have working post counts!!!

SELECT starlevel,starimg FROM stars WHERE minposts<= ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1

you need to compare with a value.

2.
ALTER TABLE user DROP postdirection

look at the highlighted text, you have a smaller or equal condition an no value following.

I get the same erorr:

Database error in vBulletin 2.2.9:

Invalid SQL: SELECT title FROM usertitle WHERE minposts<= ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1' at line 1

mysql error number: 1064

and I have values after the minposts<=

Only I got it after a newuser registered.

That line is generated by the following statement:

$getstars=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT starlevel,starimg FROM stars WHERE minposts<=$bbuserinfo[posts]+1 ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1");

I don't understand why $bbuserinfo[posts]+1 turns itself into a null string to cause that MySQL error.

I would suggest maybe putting a pair of parenthesis around the addition statement.

$getstars=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT starlevel,starimg FROM stars WHERE minposts<=($bbuserinfo[posts]+1) ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1");

And if that doesn't help, try and add 2 echo statements before the query and lets find out what happens the old fashioned way.


echo "$bbuserinfo[posts] <br>";
echo "($bbuserinfo[posts]+1) <br>";

Try running this and let me know if it fixes it for you.

alter table user modify posts int(6) default 0 not null;

well you guys obviously don't have values... because the errors aren't showing them...

perhaps you have a variable that isn't defined...

and synx if there post count isn't incrementing then you probably deleted code that you needed in the newthread & newreply.php files...

g-force2k2, if he runs the query I posted above, that will fix it. The original query did not have the "default 0 not null" appended to it, so it was not setting the newly registered user's post count. When the register.php was looking at those lines, it was saying <=0 but there was no post count to compare to it.
