Ok, honestly - this is the most disorganized release I have ever seen - I would submit a bug report, but the bug report thing seems to have a bug.


As shown earlier - I get nothing for the phrases - I think everything else works after three hours of what should have bee a five minute install - I will just go in and hard code the phrases --

my suggestion - I have no idea what the hcl garbage is, I am sure its cool, the best thing since Larry Flynt started a magazine - but these are not not even close to instuctions

1) Copy the file bugs.php to your forum root, bugsadmin.php to /admincp.
2) Import the phrases from HTL/vbbugs_phrases.xml
This invloves altering table language to have a new column
phrasegroup_vbbugs and to insert a new record in into table phrasetypes.
3) Import the templates from HTL/vbbugs_templates.xml
4) Run the following queries to create the necessary tables

{ new tables for bugs sql, only new tables in this sql }

5) Import the settings from HTL/vbbugs_settings.xml
6) This file-edit is optional. It will create links in the ACP to manage bugs, types, states and severities



Again, I did search around and found this HTL thingy - I dont want to install it - my forums are on a route right now not to be very upgradeable - in fact some files do not even pretend to resemble the original code - Now I only deal with english, so I never mess around with all this phrase stuff and junk - actually as soon as i get time am going to destroy that entire system and eradicate it from my life - but it works no problem, except now - now I either got to figure out the system or as I said just manually do it -


This though is the winner of non instructions in an instructions file

and to insert a new record in into table phrasetypes.

thats great.

Oh yea, who won that game today?



I am willing to bet that your answer to my question, is the same answer I have to that particular part of the instructions.



I am being critical, but thats only because it looks to be worthwhile - there are many hacks I take one look at, laugh, and move on and dont post anything about - cause they are not worth it - this one looks like it could be.

But I will give you credit. I have installed hacks like polls and private messages and who's online and many others - this is the first time I have ever got frustrated :)

hey, the 427th time I imported the phrases xml - it worked

I just started to install this to test out and am stuck on step 5. Where/how do I import the vbbugs_settings.xml?

Well everything was working great until I upgraded to the newest stable php last night. Now bugs.php just gives me a blank white page. I checked for extra spaces but found none and that's the only change I've made. All the rest of my forums work fine. Any ideas?

Ok I tried install this through the htl installer and I got as far as the php template modifications then I got a MySql db error. Now what do I do? I can't run the installer again according to htl it says I might screw up the forum if I do

Well I didn't change or mess with anything and they started working again. Love it when that happens! :)

According to the readme, it says:
I'm pretty new when it comes to applying hacks, but I don't see an installer. Or am I missing something here? :o

I did it the manual way, went well, but I seem to find no changes on the forum to go to the bug tracker.

When I go directly to bugs.php I get a db error.

If anyone wants to have a look.

edit:
the admin section seems to work. Though I can't add bugs to test it.

mysql error: Unknown column 'phrasegroup_vbbugs' in 'field list' Doesnt look like you installed the language bit correctly me think
