4.x.x

Hey I'm getting this error..

What version of mySQL are you using?

That's not really something I can answer off of... the latest stable? The latest beta? The latest beta of the new series release?

The query its self is solid but something is making it mad. You can remove the myisam part from the plugin file but it's worth knowing why.

is it good for great boards ? 1 mio. posts and 15.000 visitors

work with 4.18 ?

Ted S , I am using your Mod since ages :) and it has drived me tons of new members, thanks alot.

I am using the Register Block Page, can I increase the width of the block(page) a bit wider ?

I'm not sure what a "great" board is but you'd be far from the biggest site using the mod. Database logging adds a query, the default option does not.

Block uses your error template, change the style on that to change the result but it will impact all site errors.

;-)
for me its great.
but thanks for answering. ted.

Hi, this mod is good. I like to use it. But when I testing with Lift Guest Viewing Limit (vbulletin)/along with Greasemonkey -- to remove the viewing limit for guest/unregistered imposed by the LGV addon.... - then this Limit guest Viewing wont work :)

I just wonder, It doesnt matter if I turn ON the Enable Database Logging --> the Limit Guest Viewing completely not working on my site. But when I tested on the other site I will get Lock. Can you tell or explain why it make different b/w my site than the other?

Thank you for the mod.

This is the template :

Do you know css?

I have a problem. I Installed the limited guest viewing no problem and tested it out. After I have received the second prompt, the block page, I am unable to view the forum again until I turn limited guest viewing off altogether. I am unable to login using my admin username and password, if I do it just resets the block page asking me to register or login, so for now I have had to turn the feature off. I love this feature and would really like to have it on my site.

site is crimeshq.com

Can you help me?

The mod has no provision to block admins. Maybe you've managed to change your Guests from user ID 1?

And I just gotta know how you managed to turn the mod off if you couldn't log in as admin.

I couldn't log onto the forums under admin but I could still log onto the admincp to make the changes.

You'll want to try the coding or design forum for tips on how to alter your styles to edit the block message.

I don't know why it didn't work for you. But the most common reason for errors after uninstalling is that you neglected to delete the files you uploaded with the product.

"It had database error" is not something I can help with no matter how many s's you use in please.

Explain what you were doing and what the exact error was and I'll suggest what I can.

You'd have to edit the code... just hack the plugin to swap the guest check for a usergroup check.

Deleting the files will not have any impact on the uninstall process.

Ted means in this particular mod, there are no scheduled tasks running so you can just ignore any uploaded files. But don't expect to be so lucky with all mods.

In your case I guess you'll have to give us the exact error message. But it's unlikely to be coming from this mod after uninstallation. Try disabling all your other mods to track it down.

Nice Mod and thanks for providing it. I can't use it though.

Most users on my site like to browse the forum without logging in, this will really make them just $@#$# :)

thank you all for your attention.

no particular error message ! just Database error.!

and effected all the forum even the admincp .

this is the second time it happen to me with deleting Mod's

and i had no choice only back up my site an lose some Data :(

and now am afraid to install any new mod :confused:

The first thing you must do is learn how to view the actual error message. Either by viewing the page source or in the email you receive when an error occurs. Without that there's no way to figure out what's going on.

Well said and since this happens with other mods you should probably take the error back to general vBulletin support for the professional help.
