If anyone knows some of this stuff, please let me know if you can help. This is what the Thread Icon stuff looks like in the index page:
Code:
// Thread Icon |

however if you cannot figure out what is wrong just copy the corosponding folders into the root dir and your problems will be solved quicker that way |

Copy what corresponding folders? You mean upload all the smileys again? I've done that a few times already. I just finished deleting vbAdv again and reinstalling it. Then I went through all the icons and clicked the checkbox so they are all updated.
All my smileys and icons in the forum display with no problems. The problem is only on the vbAdvanced index page. It just doesn't want to look into the /forums/ folder and just goes straight to /images/ In admincp there are paths to every image folder except for icons ??? It would have made life so much easier if there was an "icons" folder and I could just define it there...am I missing it? Because I don't see it in admin cp. <sigh> |

Updated counters a few hundred times already, clicking on every single process. Deleted my cache from computer (thinking it may be just me), deleted Temp Internet files, deleted cookies, rebooted computer, etc. Still...icons that seem fine in the "News" area on my forum, don't want to show on the front page. There HAS to be something I am missing. Where can I find out what is inside 'iconpath'? Code:

Right, that's what I'm saying. You can go here and see my site:
[edited] You will see the broken icons...I will add a few more test posts. Faranth, if you want, log back into my site and you update the counters or whatever, then refresh my page and you'll see that it stays as a broken image. I have ran out of ideas. :( |
imo the quick fix would be to remove $thread[icon] as i dont think there entiry nessary or copy the folders into the corospodnig locations

then check admin options>>sitename/url/contact info and make sure forums url is http://www.site.com/forums and make sure homepage url is http://www.site.com I am using rc3 and this set up and all works fine. Also check Vboptions>>thread dispaly options(showthread) and make sure default thred icon is set to /forums/images/icons/xxxx (note replae xxxx in both places with image name such as icon1.gif, also replace www.site.com ith ur domain name.) this is where ur url is pointing http://www.dstcentral.com/images/icons/icon5.gif is icon5.gif ur default icon if so follow directions about to fix |
Thanks all for your help and suggestions :)
CarolinaKid, I followed your instructions and all my settings were set and still no difference. I did notice that the default icon works only if no "news" has an icon, and that if I "CHOOSE" an icon, it will show broken. So in summary, I guess my forum is "different", lol and requires me not to choose an icon. Thank you again Faranth...I may just delete the icon thingy, or just not put an icon and let the default icon take care of it for me. THANKS ALL! :) |
quick fix for icons on front page:
create a replacement variable that Searches for: images/icons replaces with: forums/images/icons **edit** damn, but that breaks your forum icons.. grrr |
Didn't work for me...
For whatever reason, I tried to post in my forum and icons were broken. Their path were all: /forums/forums/images/icons |
i've some problem with the the tables on the index-site...
clicke here to see to problem... can anyone help me please??? thanks... :) |

Picture 1: The actual calendar in the forum's calendar page, with all links to all events. Picture 2: The calendar on the front page, with only the link to the event I added myself on the 22nd. Picture 3: My event on the 22nd. Picture 4: One of Cali's public events on the 23rd that doesn't show on the front page. She's a supermod, userid=3, and is adding events to calendar #1 like me. http://www.fansofrealitytv.com/forum...g/vba_cal1.jpg http://www.fansofrealitytv.com/forum...g/vba_cal2.jpg http://www.fansofrealitytv.com/forum...g/vba_cal3.jpg http://www.fansofrealitytv.com/forum...g/vba_cal4.jpg |
Please forgive the newbie question. This may be more vB than vbadv related, but the issue is more pronounced with vbadv. How can I force vbadv page to take up more of the page? With the 3 columns, the center column showing the news is rather narrow. How can I make this bigger/wider?
|
its a style issue
id suggest taking a look at the gamma release thread at vbulletin.com |
hi

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.0 Release Candidate 3: |
AutomatikStudio - Go to your icon manager in your Admin CP, modify one of the icons, and save it. You don't actually have to change anything there, but just save the icon. That should update the icon cache for all of them and fix the problem with the icons.
As for the PM problem - Are you running the most current version of this script? That was an issue in one of the earlier versions, but was fixed. Did you by chance replace $index_footer with $footer in your index template? If so, that could also be the cause. rinkrat - Something like that would be fairly easy to do with conditionals. Just find the beginning <td> tag for the column you would like to disable, and add <if condition"!$page"> before that, and then </if> after the ending </td> tag. 13th_Disciple - I'm *hoping* to have the site up sometime this week. I'll be leaving for Cincinnati this Thursdsay though, so I haven't decided if it would be best to wait until after I get back or not. With Faranth around though, I may just leave him in charge while I'm away. ;) digitalSite - If you add conditionals around the blocks you don't want guests to be able to see then that should fix the problem... Ex <if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid]"> As for the images - See my first response in this post. TheEDIGuy - Could you possibly provide me with a temporary admin account at your forum, and FTP access to your site as well? I'm honestly not sure why the calendar would behave like that, but if you could PM me with that info I'll gladly take a look and see if I can figure out what the problem is. FastAttack - I tried registering on your site to see what the problem is with the avatar, but apparently you turned that option off. Can you tell me what URL it's pointing at for your avatar? Are you using a default one from your site, a custom one that's been uploaded, or did you enter the URL for it? Milhouse - See my first response in this post. ;) GameMania - Remove the quote from your news post, or change your "News Maximum Characters" setting to a higher number so the ending quote tag will be included in the post. alain4ever - Open your adv_index.php file and look for "filesize," (without the quotes) and change that to "attachment.filesize," (again, wthout the quotes). |

Faranth - I believe the last email I received from you was on 1/22, which I replied to... Have you sent any since then? Going to check vBa.com now. :)
AutomatikStudio - Yep, that's what's creating the problem then. You'll need to put the $index_footer variable back in your index template for the pm pop-up to work properly. |

I went to my Admin CP and edited my smilies and Post Icons. Now they show up correctly on my home page. THANKS! :D:D:D |
Quick question:
How do I create a page and then have it show up on the front page in place of the news forum when I click on a link? Thanks! |

Editing the Index template and paying attention ;) |

If I misunderstood you before Faranth, I apologize :) I appreciate all your help! :D Thanks! |

I am confused about how to "link" it so that it can show up in the middle area. :ermm: |
Did you read the info about the extra pages feature in the readme? It should be fairly easy to understand... Just create a new template called index_links (just for example purposes), then your link to that page would look like http://yoursite.com/index.php?page=links
And I believe Faranth did say to modify the icons and check their paths, but saving one is what actually makes the change. The icons are stored in a cache for vB3 and whenever one is modified then the cache is updated. I should have added the code to update the cache in the install file, but that was something I accidentally overlooked. That has been fixed for the next version though. :) |
Thank you...I guess working quickly on 3 hours sleep doesn't help much, lol. Sorry Faranth for not understanding what you had told me already!
What's weird was that I did change the display order and saved it before, but that didn't work at the time...I had a big mess with files and stuff all over the place and have slowly updated everything and it works fine now! I knew not to give up on this hack - i knew it was me because I said I'm missing something before, lol. My site is looking awesome already with Faranth's initial setup! :D My site: http://www.dstcentral.com/adv_index.php (temporary address) |
no one have any clues on my old problem that my forums are already in the root folder and i cant rename the index to index.php as it will over-write my vbulletin index!
|
There's an option somewhere to change the name of your forum's main page. Just change that. ;)
|
Question:
I created index_about.php and it is currently in root dir. My link is: http://www.dstcentral.com/adv_index.php?page=about but text is not showing... What is the format of the template? Like, does it have to have php tags at the top and bottom? html tags? or just begin the about page with a table? |
Why did you create a new file? There's no need for that, just a new template. All you put in the template is the content you would like to appear in the middle, so starting with a table would probably be the best. ;)

everything is default.. I am guessing it has to do with where the index is located.. I double check though ;) thanks! |
