I am installing your Anonymous hack and ran into some problems with testing step 6.

I have double checked everything but no matter what I do the check box to choose to post anonymously is not showing up.

Any assistance would be greatly appriciated. I pm'd you in April with no reply so kind of gave up but now the issue why we wanted the hack in the first place is back so I could really use some help.

I have the same problem?

UP to this point I have had ZERO problems...all has been WONDERFUL! (SUPER job on writing the TXT file!! AMAZING!!!)....

I get no error messages....all appears to be normal...but NO CHECK BOX!

I'm 2 hours into this hack...and I sure do need it (IF POSSIBLE) before tomorrow.

YOU assistance would be geatly appreciated.

I'm now back off to read through this thread again to see if I missed something.

Thanks.

Kirk

OH...I have another questions....ON STEP 6. Letter "i"....

The instructions are to:

Find: ..... Replace with: (.........change to use the proper userid and user name.)

I see in the text where to put "PUT USERID HERE"...but I've read it 4 times...I don't see where to put "USER NAME".

Am I just missing it??? Could this be why IT'S not working????

Kirk

OH...I just had another thought......

I skipped step 3 because I do not have a need for that....could this be causing the problem????? as to why in step 6 I cannot get the check box to show up????

THANKS AGAIN for this hack....WONDERFULLY WRITTEN!!!! Amazing....I wish I had your brain!

Kirk

I'll look at the code again in a few minutes. I may have messed up the text file when fixing something else. I'm going to be porting it to 3.5 this evening (I hope) and that will make me look at this in fine detail.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I will say that first...I am NO CODER.....I can copy and paste...but for me to say what I'm doing??? I HAVE NO IDEA!!!!!

With that said...this is the ONLY thing I have found that is a bit ODD:

Step 6 Letter "i" ONE of the last bits of code you tell me to find is:

However...in my "functions_newpost" it looks like this:

I don't know if that is causing the problem or not???? But I figured IT was the only difference I have found.

LET ME KNOW!

And thanks again for this.....IF you have a DONATION policy....please PM it to me so I can contribute!

Yours,

I just looked at step 3. Yes, it would most definitely make the checkbox not show if you don't do that step, but you have the code in later to see if it's on or not.

The code you just posted shouldn't make a difference :)

Wait??? I'm a bit confused???? Are you saying I should just continue onto step 7 and this will fix itself????

LET ME KNOW....THANKS AGAIN...

Kirk

No. I'm saying go back and do step 3. It won't hurt anything to do it and turn the setting on. :) It's not a code change, and won't take you but a minute.

Thank you...I did just that.....and figured....as you say....JUST FOR GIGGLES :D...to do it....and it's done....And still no check box???

I have another question at this point....I've been checking steps as I go along...

When I run:
UPDATE userfield set field6='yes';

IT says OK...done....but when I search a user, neither YES nor NO is checked.

Could this be the problem???

Kirk

PS: I really do feel I owe you something for this...PLEASE DO PM ME!
