I have been over there and there are no postings related to custom blocks
Where do I find information on how to do this

I forgot a step on that didn't I? Sorry folks, if you do a search for the vbadvanced weather you'll see the other step needed.

Sorry about that

It's actually not too hard, first there are six already available to you, just go to you vbindex options, tell the system how many you want to use, then choose which ones you want to use. (i.e. I want three custom blocks, so I tell the system 3, then I can choose either custom blocks 1, 2, or 3, 4, 5, and 6 won't show until I tell the system to use that many.)

Then go to the associated custom block template and adjust your HTML code there.

To add more than that, just go into your vbindex.php and have it preload the next custom block number, and then in your templates add a new custom block with the next highest number and then copy the code from another custom code original and yer good to go.

I have over simplified this, let me know if you don follow.

Are there any size constraints that would limit how much code could be in a vbindex custom block? I'm doing "On this Date..." quote system for my website and I'm going to have to have a paragraph or so of text for every day of the year.

I'm doing it in html and not pulling it from a database.. not much of a programmer.

What custom blocks are you planning to add in the future as an option? Maybe something like vb portal affiliate box?

In this case, perhaps someone can explain how to manually upgrade vBi instead?

You should have vbindex_*__3.0.0_RC5 templates listed for all those templates you had previously customised. There was a minor bug in the uninstaller that ment only one vBindex template would get deleted.

Edit line 195 of vbiupgrade.php and replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
WHERE title like LCASE('vbindex')

With:

PHP Code:


		
			
WHERE title like LCASE('vbindex%')
