I unzipped them and transfered them using ftp.

Depending on the ftp program, that might be your problem. Some ftp programs don't autodetect properly that the fonts need to be uploaded in binary mode. Try manually forcing binary mode and reuploading. It'll take two seconds and will rule that out as a problem

That was it!! Thanks for all your help Amy!! :up: :)

For the record, this error was because the graffiti.png file was not chmodded correctly for writing. all fixed now, thanks!

well ..

I just installed it .. it is working fine .. but I am trying to make it accept Arabic characters but with no hope .. I uploaded arabic fonts & changed the font names in the wall.php but still it appears as squares .. Any Help ??

I have also figured out how to have more then one wall. Since I have a number of topic areas on my forums, I wanted to give each topic their own wall.

First take the graffiti.png file and name it something else... I used graffiti2.png.

In wall.php you will find 2 places where wall.php is called. Change it to wall2.php

In wall.php you will find $graffitifile = "$pathto/graffiti.png";
change that to $graffitifile = "$pathto/graffiti2.png";

In wall.php you will find <img src="graffiti.png?<? echo rand(10000,99999); ?>"> change that to <img src="graffiti2.png?<? echo rand(10000,99999); ?>">

Rename wall.php to wall2.php

Upload the files to your server and you should be all set.

Great mod! I hope someone can make it so you can put images against the wall. Please make it. :)

Is there any way to make it automatically wipe every 15 minutes or so?
If I or my moderators arent watching it and people are using it, it will fill up quickly and make it where nothing can be read.

Its a VERY cool mod BTW !!

Anyone?

Not without running a cronjob - and you'd have to modify the script to not check for can_moderate() (line 81); then you'd call the script with ?adminreset=1 as part of the cron (you could use wget or some other command-line utility).
