this hack right here, it adds/edits every thing except the .php files....right?

@ TheMasterG:
Nominally, a hack should not be installed when there's a mistake in it. ...

Other ways are, for example, to just delete it, upload the new .htl file (the one that isn't faulty), import that to the database (NO real install!), then edit that hack and disable all steps that you've already done, and then save & do a real install for that hack, thus continuing where you left off....
Hi, it's not that there was a mistake in it, it was the hack wasn't complete. I was working on a hack and testing what the install procedure was like so far and now I can't seem to be able to get back into the hack to work with it and change steps etc.? Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.

I deleted the hack and imported it into the datebase, but still the only to options I have from the "Manage Hacks" page are to either delete it or continue with the installation, I want to edit the steps etc.?

You said above this can be done, how?

Cheers,

G :)

The HTL won't do this for you, but instead produces instructions for both php file and template edits.

To do that, you really should either run a TEST install (or Verbose Test) instead of a Real install (which you apparently did, otherwise it will not appear in the Unfinished Hack Installs section), OR you should enable ONLY the step you want to try out (with a real install).

To enable only one step, go (before you do any install runs, so this would be before things got messy for you :)) to the Edit Hack Details page and go to the section which lists what steps are part of the hack. There you should enable only the step(s) that you wish to execute (really execute). Then do a REAL install sequence.

Adusei, try looking at the table phrasetype and see if there's a row (probably with id 151) called hacklog (as the fieldname) ?

If so, delete that one as well (along with language.phrasegroup_hacklog if it exists again, and tables hack and hacklog).

Hi KuraFire,
thanks for the reply!
I deleted ALL tbls in the db (hack, hacklog), there is NO hacklog row in tbl phrasetype - and still the install routine will stop at the same place...

And NOW I've got an additional problem through it:
In my vB now I can't do changes on phrases again, always I get an mysql error msg 1054 - because language.phrasegroup_hacklog doesn't exist.

Now I really need help urgenly!

Bes regards,

adusei

Hi, I think this is what I need to do to get back to working on the hack the way I had been, how do I do this?

KuraFire
02-17-2004, 09:40 PM
MasterG:

1) delete the hack (which you can only do a Continue Install or Delete Hack for);
2) make sure that that hack's .htl file is in your /htlfiles/ directory;
3) Go to Install Hacks, then select that hack (via the radio button), then start install and choose IMPORT TO DATABASE ONLY;
4) You'll end up directly on the Manage Hacks page. Go to Edit Hack Details for your hack, which should be in there again now, editable and all;
5) disable all steps that you have already executed successfully;
6) Save, then go to the hack's (on manage hacks page) drop down menu and choose Run Install Sequence, then choose Real Install and continue where you left off.


adusei: I really have no idea what on earth you've done to your system, I'm sorry :(

Figured it out.

Had to change "atstep" to -1 after step 4 above.
Bit of a pain to have to query the database to do this, maybe have it slightly different in the next version?

G :) Many things will be different in HTL 1.1, a new feature will be to "Revert" any hack in the database (essentially putting it in completely initial status with all steps disabled, ready to go again).

Other stuff is gonna go, too, and many other things. For suggestions, please go to the official HTL Suggestions list (http://everythingvb.com/showthread.php?t=39).

up till then everything is fine.

What will happen to this hack itself whenever we upgrade to final releases of VB3? ;)

(sorry if this has been answered before, 18 pages is already a lot ;))

I installed it, and everything went ok. I edited the files and everything... now I get a database error. I am still waiting for the email giving me all the details. But if you could get me started at places I should check for errors, that would be great.

I made sure i followed the instructions exactly!

Thanks for your help

I am running the latest version of vB (RC4)

KuraFire
02-25-2004, 08:10 AM
drews: what error(s) are you getting?

Areku: once you upgrade your vB3, to have the HTL work again you only have to re-apply the few file modifications. IF you have the HTL installed already, you can use the HTL's built-in feature to LIST ALL MODIFICATIONS -> this shows all file edits needed for all of your installed (HTL-) hacks. Including the HTL itself. So before you upgrade your vB3, open that page in a separate tab or browser window, and then do the upgrade.
Also, see the very first post in this thread, it has a link to a tutorial on how to easily upgrade your vB3 using the HTL.

stand68: check to see if your database table `language` has this column: phrasegroup_hacklog - if so, delete it. Then also delete, on the phrasetype table, the row where fieldname='hacklog' (IF it exists). Then try again.

YogiTW: the HTL is mostly forwards compatible, so unless a new vB3 version has some major changes in where functions are or what the (existing) functions do, the HTL will work right away with upcoming releases of vB3 (like 3.1). It will only require you to re-apply the file changes.

What a great hack KuraFire, thanks :)

Sorry if this question was there befor, but I was wondering, if it's possible to import two differnet phrases XML or more to my multi lang forum at ONE time.

I don't know if this can be done, but if there was like two new fields, or maybe more, for multi Phrases XML files importing, and next or infront of each field, another field for inputing the "charset" for each aditional language you've got in your forums you want to import phrases to based on the HTML Character Set you got in the the General Settings of your other languages.

and based on the charest you input to the other XML file, it will be imported to it.

Take a look at the attached image.

i accidently semi-uninstalled HTL

when i go back through the install setup, it freezes on step 2.




Installing: Hack Tracking Log (version: 1.00 Gold)
Hack Tracking Log Installer System

Insert Hack Phrases (Step 2 of 5)

Current Step: Insert Hack Phrases
This step inserts all the new phrases for the Hack Tracking Log. It creates one new phrase group on the language table, phrasegroup_hacklog, and inserts a selection of phrases into existing vBulletin Phrase Groups (such as error phrases, etc).





has no button to advance to step 3. gives no errors, etc.

any ideas on how to fix this?

Areku
03-02-2004, 09:45 AM
OK, I've installed this hack and it really looks awesome.

THE ONLY hack i already had working on RC4 was vbadvanced homepage hack...

How do I make it HTL compatible so next time I upgrade VB to RCx or final, HTL will remain and vbadvanced won't be removed neither?

Is that possible?

Thanks Kura!

Euhm, i WAS planning to install HTL, cause the idea sounded nice.

Then i browsed a bit through the full rls hacks (old forum style) and found that on the newest 2 pages (50 rls's) only 2 ! used HTL :(

Then i visit here and i see KuraFire no longer posts here....

That was a bad decision. Detaching himself from this forum doesn't give me good hopes for the future and support of this hack.
I see he directs in all his threads to this thread:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61939 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61939)
but i get a no permission error, so no idea what was in there

Can this hack be used to tell me what to change in my RC4 code to make it the same as 3.0 Gold?

I tried asking this on thier supposed support forum, but apparently they don't visit thier forum that often so here is my question. I believe your HTL created the second "hack menu" in the cp. Well if where going to have a second menu for hacks then I'd like all the hacks installed be in this menu. So far it shows HTL an the vBtrader. The arcade hack menu is placed in the standard menu,so my question is where do I put the arcade menu code so it shows up in the second "hacks menu"? Thanks for your help, this stuff gets complicated.

That hack menu is only for HTL hakcs.
The arcade isn't htl hence that and all other non htl hacks won't show in that menu.
In fact your admin cp doesn't even "know" you have the arcade or other non htl hacks installed. So you can't get it in there.

Actually they did reply to this on thier forum. Turns out it was easier than I thought, didn't have to edit any code. All you have to do is "Add Hack" with what info you have, then their is an option to creat/edit the menu links for it. So yes you can... now we all know.

need to add the code in the install step for the adminCP.

If you run the installer again, and select Test Run. The necessary file edits are in step 6 of the installer. there are three, make sure you did all of them. :)

Yep. I had the same error as GovGaming and milkmycow, it seems to not include any way to reach the next step after "Insert Hack Phrases" if you've already had HTL installed once before and are reinstalling it after upgrading VB [like I am now from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1]. Luckily for me, I'm doing a sort of psuedo clean install, so I can afford to drop my current language, phrase and phrasetype tables and insert the original ones - which did the trick for me.

Though, for future upgrades a fix would be nice. :)

people who are having problems with step 2:

assuming you've uploaded all the files, go to:
www.yoursite.com/forum/admincp/hackadmin.php

Then you should see a list of hacks that you've installed using hack tracking log, including the hack tracking log itself.

Click on "Edit Hack Details" and choose "Edit Steps". Then click "Modify: File and Template edits" and edit the necessary files. You DO NOT need to do anything else.

This is for people upgrading from vB RC to Gold / 3.0.1

Damn, I must be dumb or something. I'm trying to convert Beermonster's hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=502972#post502972) and I'm to the point where I generate the Phrases XML. The temp file is located in /forums/bannerphrases.php. The contents of the file are:<?php
$vbphrase['fhbanner'] = 'Postbits Banner Image<br>(Places a image on your forum postbits) EX: banner.jpg';
$vbphrase['fhbannerlink'] = 'Postbits Banner Image Link<br>(http://www.yoursite.com)';
$vbphrase['fhmessage'] = 'Postbits Banner text i.e. Sponsored By or Affiliate with';
?>

Whenever I use the XML Utilities "Create an XML File for your Hack Section" I put in:

Generate XML for Which Hack: Banner Ad on Forum Home
What type of XML? Phrases
Locate your temporary...? ./forums/bannerphrases.php
Select Style: Standard Style Renamed to mine

For the Locate question, I have tried full path, forums/bannerphrases.php and /forums/bannerphrases.php (which shouldn't work anyhoo) and they are giving me

No Temporary Phrases Found errors and No XML Files designated errors. Of course, this is my first time trying to "write" a hack for HTL so what am I doing wrong?

Thanks, I installed this great thing on vBulletin 3.0.1 and have one problem:

In the admin-controlpanel I can not see anything in the left navbar on top in the menu. There is no gfx or text in it, but clicking in the second row switches to the HTL-menu and backwards.

But where is the text ?!

Well now when I click on "Hacks Menu" nothing happens in the right frame. It stays where it was previously. I can always type in "/hackadmin.php" manually, but still..
:nervous: ??

Works, and it's great!

And here's a tiny tiny bug I found while in admin cp

low HTML in Shouts?
Set this to 'yes' to allow users to post HTML in their shouts. <i>STRONGLY NOT RECOMMENDED!</i>

-The <i> </i> appears, instead of taking effect.

Is anyone else having this problem after the vb3.0.1 upgrade?

Definitely into this hack. I've released my first major hack under HTL and plan to release more. Plus, I think I'll evanglize a little and try to get more people to use this system. There's not enough people using it...

I just Installed it and there are missing Phrases! The new Menu to switch in the AdminCP is empty. I can click on an empty cell and it changes. btw: The Change is awful, Why change between two Menus?
And the Settings are empty with no phrases. I use a complete German Forum.

Any suggestions?

You'd have to translate the english phrases into german, I'd imagine

In all other Parts I see english Text. In the Database I can see the Phrases, but I did not see them in the Phrasemanager.

These three things need to be done for it to show up in the AdminCP.
Already done the edits to
includes/adminfunctions_template.php
includes/adminfunctions_navpanel.php

Just do the Index.php edit. ;) :) You can always access the Hack List by directly calling the script in your browser. and then the above steps would be found by running a test install, should be step 6 of 6.

I installed HTL correct, but thus I am using vBulletin 3.0.1 there is an empty menu in the top of the navbar in the admincp.

How can I get this menu being filled with words ?

It is the menu that switches the "side" of the navpanel and brings me to the HTL-Menu.

under the hack in question, you'd select edit hack details, then from there you add the userid of the admins you'd like access to install.

at least that's how its supposed to work.

Trying to install the HTL. It seemed to work fine the first time, but there was no htl menu in my admin cp. I wondered if this was because Hack_Tracking_Log.htl hadn't uploaded in binary, so I tried overwriting that and running the install program again. But when I got to Insert Hack Phrases (Step 2 of 5), there was no next step button.
I've tried deleting all files and reverting the .php files that I know were modified, but the same still happens when I get to step 2 of the installation, it won't let me go any further.

Did you do the three files edits?

admincp/index.php
includes/adminfunctions_navpanel.php
includes/adminfunctions_emplates.php

You need to do those for the menu navigation section to show up.

if you do those, then the section will show up above the vBulletin Options section.

06-18-2004, 05:29 PM
refer to this post for adding the link (section) in your adminCP

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=507436&postcount=331

they show up in the actual install phase, second to last step.
I got an email stating there was a new post, and read the post, but when i got here, it wasn't here. :ermm:

As for the uninstall process. I don't think uninstalling is supported in this version, but how to uninstall the HTL would be to go into your hacks menu, and in the drop down box next to the HTL, select 'Uninstall Hack'

But you don't need to reinstall it.

Just point your browser to admincp/hackadmin.php?do=modify

and it will go to the Hacks menu. Just do the hacks above and it will add the section i was refering to.

Hope this helps. Ohh and the post that was there, but never was. :p


No, those weren't listed in the readme file. The readme file just said to upload all files and run the install script.
I can't find instructions for these file edits, where are they?

Plus, how can I completely uninstall the htl so I can start afresh and get the install script to run?

Thanks :)


Best of luck. :)

KuraFire: Your instructions did the trick. Many thanks! I thought I'd better say that in this thread so people know it wasn't a fault with the hack script at all. Very impressive support!


Kura/Zelda,

I'm experiencing the same problem.

"You don't have permission to see the File- or Template edits for this Hack!" and
"Warning: Wrong datatype for second argument in call to in_array in /home/www/xdxusa/forums/admincp/hackadmin.php on line 2184"

Looked through the thread and didn't see the post that contained KuraFire's instructions that you mentioned above. (unless I'm just spacing it today)

Could you please post what you did to resolve? Many Thanks!


*edit* Scratch that. Figured it out. Thanks anyways.

"This step inserts all the new phrases for the Hack Tracking Log. It creates one new phrase group on the language table, phrasegroup_hacklog, and inserts a selection of phrases into existing vBulletin Phrase Groups (such as error phrases, etc)."

You do not need to reinstall the HTL when upgrading, the Database and phrases are already there, you need only make the necessary file edits as instructed in the second to last step. the three file edits are listed in one of my post in this thread, on one of the previous pages. or you can do a test (Verbose) install, and find the file edits there. point to hackadmin.php in your adminCP.

Installed HTL under vb 3.0.2, it seemed to go ok.

Now wanting to install shoutbox, which says


2. Enter you Admin CP and select 'Manage Hacks' under the 'Hack Tracking Log'.
3. At the bottom, click 'Install Hack', choose 'Shoutbox Hack', and click 'Run Install Sequence'.


Um.... there is no "Install Hack" button.

I have "Hack Tracking Log" added to the end of vBulletin options. There are five options with Save and Reset buttons.

Am I looking in the wrong place or did I mess up the install?

It is difficult to check my work when the mods are part of an install script which changes the database. I yearn for a text file (reference).

Can't find this problem in this forum, which means it is a very stupid thing I did, or I am not searching for the right words.

Any pointers greatly appreciated. Please and thank you.

For the Squall Shoutbox Hack, I had it with my original VB 3.0 but when I installed I was having problems getting it on the forum home. All of my phrases for the ShoutBox Hack are gone.

So when I go to the HTL installer it tells me it cant make a phrase group, I assume because its already there. Is there a way to delete the group so the installer can go through or can I change something in the file so that it just uploads the phrases instead?

Hey KuraFire.... would be just good if you update your sites, put a announcement instead of the http login system...

also, update your stuff sometimes... or stop giving support...

I have installed the hack but I have a question..

http://www.antispywareoffensief.nl/forum/hacklog.php

But is there anywhere on the forum a link to this page? I don't want normal members to access this page via a normal hyperlink..
Only the crew (and people I give the exact URL) may now about it.

I'm trying to install this on my server and keep getting the following message when I go to run the install_htl.php file

"Invalid or empty Hack Tracking Log Installer file specified"

This shows up in the admin control panel... I have changed the relative path in the config_htl.php file and no matter what I put there I get the same error. Now I'm running this on an Linux server as a subdomain (folder) under another web site. any help would be deeply appreciated ...

Any reason you are installing the HTL so late in its life?

So this hack is pretty much over, right? Now we are supposed to be using HIS instead?

Is there a standard yet?

I wouldn't put much into HTL right now, kura stoped supporting it ages ago.

eh depends if you really like it so be it, but current hacking authors are not mass producting hacks to be used with the HTL anymore, mostly because you are required to have one of each.

Using somthing like the HIS for your hacks instead allow hackers to only have one kind.

OK I would like to uninstall this hack because it's become more or less useless. Anyone know how I would go about removing it completely? There aren't any uninstall instructions in the zip file. I would like to know how to remove the phrases in particularly. I think I can remove the other stuff safely.

I just installed this hack on my test board and when I go to my admincp I get this message in the right column

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_BOOLEAN_OR in /home/muleskin/public_html/Board/includes/adminfunctions_navpanel.php on line 336

I have not been able to find the error and I cannot uninstall the hack because I can't get to options in admin cp, as the error code takes up the color where my functions generally show.
Any suggestions on hot to fix or remove greatly appreciated

If a hack doesnt have HTL file and I want to ADD the hack to HTL myself, i see this in one of the option "Is this Hack installed?" after clicking on the "Add hack" link.

Does it mean that first I have to INSTALL a non-htl hack manually and then add it to htl database or some other way.

I am sorry. This question is probally answered in the everythingvb FAQ, but as you can see its offline. And there are no docs in the download.

Can anyone please help.

no, If you have already installed the hack before you do the HTL, thenall you do is select Yes and it will add it to the hacks list. If youselect no, then you will have to go through the install process beforeit gets added to the list.

I was still using it till I upgraded to 3.0.7. Now I dont have the menu option in admincp and It stops at step 2 (where it says its adding phrases ) and doesnt show another "Step" button to procede with the reinstall try. Anyone got any suggestions?

Just readd the code listed in the install, to add it to your admin CP.

i have the same problem as xTerMn8R. When i try to install it it stops at step 2. Im using version 3.07 of vb. Is there any fix to this problem or is it not compatable with 3.07? thanks in advance.

are you trying to install it again? or is it a clean install of the hack?

If you are trying to reinstall due to updating vBull version, don't, all you need to do is Read the code listed in the install where it adds code to /admincp/index.php.

The HTL is already installed, you need only use the install script for a clean install.
