I get the following code when viewing the vbindex page as a guest:

Warning: unexpected error in date() in C:\DDVBBoard\upload\admin\functions.php on line 1613

This is installed on 2.8 version. Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks.

my first post here lol, Ok I read the whole 72 pages last night and again today lol but dont see a fix, well the one I do isnt working on a permanent basis.

great hack by the way and thank you.

I installed it on my test forum and works perfectly.

Installed it on my real forum and works great too.However when I make a new news post the content doesnt show up. So I ran the set post id, then found the update counter addition and added that. It works for the new post I made. But then if I were to go add another news item today I would have to update the post id's again for the content to show.

Which is no big deal since I will be the only one entering new items anyway. I must have missed something though.So if you can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.I am sure I never saw this in the 72 pages but who knows i may have missed it, if so ignore me lol

Here is my real forum, the news shows now since I updated the id's after I posted.

Side note I am helping another person install his and he gets it installed fine, the templates are there but no link to the vbindex in the ACP

bromyaur, you haven't followed the instructions, you need to make the changes to newthread.php ;)

As the Comments (x) links to the thread I saw no point in having both there.

I will test this code out kreftt, can I add it to the next release, with full credit given of course?

Oh lolololololol

Sorry about that, thats what happens when you install it twice, and during the process are posting messages back and forth in another forum trying to help someone else install theirs while being very tired lol

Note to everyone..

Make sure you have more than 3 hours sleep when installing hacks.lolololol

Sorry about that

*hehe* No Problem, we've all installed hacks real late or after getting no sleep, its not the best time ;)

oh in case this works, id be honored if you did.

there is really no point in having a read more link, but the current vbindex always displays the link, as the condition is the existence of the maxnewschar-variable. so i thought it might be better to chage the condition, but in fact you are right: its useless.

hey bromyaur, i like the colors you've used on your site.

fyi, you need to change the color of the font in your polls template.

"votes: 2 100%" is white, on a white background, so you can't read it without highlighting it.

just in case you weren't already aware.

*edit*
also checked, and your shoutbox title is white on a white background. you may want to change that too, bud.

take care.

I love the hack but for some reason I have a url location problem. I hope you can help with this.

Please keep the instructions simple and detailed LOL I?m not the best at doing this kind of stuff.

Thanks in advance

Joe





I recently installed vbindex 2.1 on my forum. Everything?s working fine except that the portal is located at http://www.myurl.com/vb/ instead of www.myurl.com

My forum is at http://www.myurl.com/vb/index.php How do I get my portal to view at www.myurl.com

and my forum to view at http://www.myurl.com/vb/index.php

I followed the instructions and put the vbindex.php in the vb directory but I can?t get it to view at the proper url




((I saw this on the instructions do I do something with this and if so what would I do .)))


If you intend to run vbindex from a directory other than the one your forums are in uncomment & set:

chdir('./path to forums');

to the path to your forums directory relitive to the directory vBindex is run from.





{{{Or do I need a redirect script and if so can you tell me what to put in it and were to}}} upload it. (im using cpanel if it helps to know)

Thank you for your help

you would move your vbindex.php to myurl.com

you rename it to index.php

then you change the line that you posted to:

chdir('./vb');

then you should be set...
