yeah.. I moved on to that hack too... I've had to many issues with this one sadly...

I just upgraded just then.

1. I click on main in the admincp, and none of my images show.
tip. It is trying to load this url /admincp/sotw.php?do=main
tip. if I type in this url /admincp/sotw.php The images show.

2. the error that shows in the add new entry section "Could not find phrase 'sotw_fill_in_all'." Is still there.

3. In the image url location, it has a max character setting of only 80 characters, and the url I have is over 80 characters as it is from one of those free image uploading services, so this setting should be set to 150 characters.
How will I edit this myself in the meantime tho.

4. Needs a : after Total Votes in the info box

5. if you choose 5 stars, when you hover over the stars, you spelt Excellent wrong.

6. SOTW history is only showing this weeks entry and none of my other weeks are showing.

7. It would be good to have an extra field in the sotw entry area which links to that weeks sotw thread.

Apart from that, it is looking better. keep up the good work.

Did you reupload the XML file?

You need to reupload all the files, including the product because the links have changed.

New links:
sotw.php => Main
sotw.php?do=add = Add New
sotw.php?do=edit&id=X => Edit
sotw.php?do=delete&id=X => Delete

Maybe I spoke to soon lol, it appears to be working now. however these parts are not:

1. In the image url location, it has a max character setting of only 80 characters, and the url I have is over 80 characters as it is from one of those free image uploading services, so this setting should be set to 150 characters.

1. I will update when i get home
2. Total votes is there
3. Will fix soon
4. Upload the file again and overwrite the old
5. It is already there

I'm having the same problem with the history not showing anything but the current week's winner.

I even reuploaded the sighistory file. Please view:

how do you enter the images? in url format or folder locations, none seem to work for me - im testing it out on an offline board before installing it for real

Try the image to be somewhere on your comp.

E.g C:/User/Documents And Settings/Image.gif

Thats a totally differant hack :(

Then why still post in this thread?
There are going to be errors in a hack. If you don't have the patience to wait for a fix then move on to the next hack.

tried that already :( didnt work

Have you tried it on a test site?

What url are you using?
