Darn I guess this hacks development has stalled or stopped? This is the second web page hack that got so close to being great, but development stopped and never got all the bugs worked out.

I really want this type of hack installed, but the problems with the uninstall and the other problems people have mentioned have me worried about installing this on my live forum :(

:) nice work :)

It would be nice if the author would actually state that support/development had stopped though, rather than letting new users continue to download it and then be ignored when asking for simple help issues....especially as the 'support' box is still ticked. Oh well... :(

Nice Plug =9 How it would be with an friend feature? like myspace you can invite people and stuff and then they show up on the users personal page ;o)

This is not a my-space kind of thing. It is more like profile pages on Epinions

http://www.epinions.com/user-gracef
http://www.epinions.com/user-theworm
http://www.epinions.com/user-amykhar

That sort of page.

amykhar, is this still supported please? it is ticked as supported, but questions seem to go unanswered, giving the impression support is not given. I don't intend to sound hostile, but being a bit of a n00b here some basics would go a long way :D

First of all, I REALLY like this mod. Only one problem: .htaccess kills the whole forum. I get a 500 internal error, in both the forums and also in adminCP. Seems to work OK without .htaccess. What am I missing?

You don't need to use .htaccess to use the hack. The only thing the .htaccess lets you do is use a shorter URL (forums/username) for userpages. If you have other hacks (like the Search Engine Optimized hack) you might have problems. Just restore your original .htaccess if you're having trouble.

question:

The 'install.txt' says:

What exactly does 1. install product mean? Most products come with some level of detail to explain the how part of installing. I realise this down to my lack of understanding but some help would be highly appreciated.

So far, the best definition i can assume from "install product" is :

Admincp, Plugin System, Manage Products, Add/Import Product then upload it or direct it to my includes/xml.

This however only informs me: Invalid file specified.

I'm running vb3.5.4 so if anyone has any clue of what I'm doing wrong, please enlighten me as it's slightly frustrating seeing that other's are getting this product up & running but I'm seemingly incapable of doing so.

That's right, except direct it to the file "product-userpages.xml" in your userpages folder that you extracted on your local computer.
