I upgraded to the newest release today, which has caused the whole mod to cease to work.

On attempting to use auto-replace, as I did with the previous version, no vbTrend stats appear on the page.

On switching off auto-replace and modifying FORUMHOME as instructed in the installation guide, the vB stats box simply appears emply, with all contents removed. (And before this be asked: yes, the vbTrends mod is enabled from its options/settings screen in AdminCP.)

As such, the new release of the mod does not appear to work on my system at all, whereas the previous worked fine.

Any fixes?

The option to choose when the trends data is pulled will put this at the very top of my 'favorite hacks' list.

--will test new version later, hope to see it out of beta soon!

Thanks Mark, keep it up :)

PM Sent, thanks

:D

It's all fixed. It appears the old template didn't get updated when you installed the new version. I have no idea why that would happen. I think perhaps it might be when people do an overwrite instead of an uninstall and reinstall, but I'm not sure.

I highly recommend anyone installing 2.0.0 do an uninstall and reinstall though.

Try a full uninstall and reinstall of vbTrends from the latest zip, making sure to reupload all files. If the auto-replace used to work it should still work. I recommend reverting the FORUMHOME template as that can't be the problem.

My bad - and interesting note for those using export (from advanced product manager) to create their product.xml files: The template is not exported properly. Even though I've updated the template on the site, the old version is still the one exported. I had to manually edit the product.xml file. The new zip file I just posted has the correct template. I recommend a full uninstall/reinstall of vbTrends.

I was on 1.2.5 upgraded 2.0.0 but couldn't get the trends to work... tried uninstalling and reinstalling about 3 times with same results. I finally went into the user groups and saw that it was in fact set to yes for viewing trends but I still couldn't see anything on the front page, but once I clicked save on the user group it started showing up again. PS thanx for the great hack :)

Interesting... I will look into this. Glad you got it to work.

I got the hack to work after having to uninstall / reinstall it entirely though I have a quick question - on my forum home it shows

Threads: 38,778, This Month: 4 (117%)

What is "This Month: 4" ?

I have set it to retrieve data from the last 2 months

It means that so far this month you've had four new threads. And compared to the last 2 months, that's 117% more than you usually have by this time of the month.
