Ah yes I get your drift now.

:$ Thanks. It's my first attempt. Glad to see I'm doing somethign right. *hehe*

*nods* This is what I figured. I'm naming the templates rather nicely so it's not too hard to find them (such as what you have listed above). Just thought I'd try. ;)


Ah, if you do you do and if not I'm sure we'll survive. :)

Hm I've just read every post and I've decided to have a go at this. I've been running cgi/shtml on my website because I used to use UBB and found perl easy to understand. I feel 'sort of' okay with sql now and I'm going to give this a go.

Thanks for the hack and for the opportunity to do this, I'll let you know how it goes...

I have one question for anyone really...

How do you move a template into a template category or create a category.

I have a lot of templates called forumhome_xxxxxxxx and I'm like to move them for sorting out into the forum homepage display category... I've had it done before by a file I downloaded doing it automatically with a template - but how do I do it manually? Sql table editing?

Do you mean webtemplates created with this hack or default vb templates?

Just installed this hack. Went to view the help pages and got:

"The page you requested does not exist!

Please check the address you want to visit. If you arrived this page by clicking a link inside this site, you may notify the Site Administrator about the broken link. Thank you!"

Clearly I did something wrong. Any idea?

Nevermind. The installdoc gave the help pages as starting with a cap. The engineer in my always wants to read docs for diving in.

Nice work. You've designed a single parsing engine to resolve a stored procedure language to the refrecned data and to recognize and substitute for vb variables. If you ever need a new name for this, try vbWarmFusion.

You are right..

If I would recoded it today, I would name it something like vbCodingLanguage or smt. because it is really a kind of simple vb coding languge. I didnt realize the fact in the day I named the hack :)

Anyway new version is much powerful regarding this feature of the hack and I'm coding it mostly around this point. It will be possible to write independent vb structures/applications with this hack without even changing a single line of vb code or writing an independent .php script, all within webtemplates and webqueries.

Too bad many users of the hack havent ever realized this most powerful feature of the hack and they only use it as a basic vb-membership check for non-vb pages..

I easily see the benefit of being able to present a page with dynamic, up-to-the-minute data, mining the DB for personalization characteristics.

Now, I've only begun to tinker, but it seems like the $user[fieldname] replacement doesn't work in my webtemplates. Making the rational assumption that I have done something wrong, any idea what it might be?

yes your variable name is wrong. Try $bbuserinfo[fieldname] instead. ;)
