We've been using this hack for a few months without any problems. Now, all of a sudden, we've been receiving error messages:

Database error in vBulletin :

Link-ID == false, connect failed
mysql error:

mysql error number:

Date: Tuesday 24th of December 2002 09:40:46 AM
Script: /forum/journal.php?s=&journalid=12338&action=view

We ONLY receive errors regarding connecting to view the journals, not the rest of the forum, and we've received at least 30 in the last week.

Has anyone else been having problems?

NOTE: please during setup of the new version, allow the user to SELECT which STYLE to install to. The installation installed to my default style and didnt go to my CUSTOM style.

Just a note, and i may have missed something, but if you are getting a blank screen AND are using a custom style, you will need to move templates over from default to your style.

I am getting the following error when users attempt to create a journal entry:

However, if the user REFRESHES the page, it says the journal already exists and it acts flawless from there.

Also, the "$forums" in the postbit is not working for the user who has an entry. Any ideas for either?

Yeah when I try to install in 2.29 I get to step 3 and get a MySQL error,

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.2.9:

Man oh man. With a little manual database entry I managed to push past the above error message. I created the tables and did the inserts manually through the end of the install, and it now works. Thanks a bunch Ryangel. It works, it really works!

I've done it.... it was annoying the crap outta me too....

this file will:

display 20 of each of the 3 columns on the Journal jump page, and will also allow admins to edit/delete journal entries and comments.

Just download and rename this file to journal.php
then upload to your main directory

Enjoy,

Uploaded and just got errors.... :confused: Seems to be requesting the wrong url.

Well, I just verified that the file I uploaded is exactly like the one I currently have in use - it is.

Also... from the error, it looks as though you may be missing a line of an SQL statement - did you edit this file AT ALL?

and finally, I dont understand how you could be requesting a wrong URL, every instance of the goto starts like:

$goto="journal.php?s=

it's referring to itself - there are no directory changes at all.

hmmm...I didn't alter it it in anyway and just uploaded it to try it out to see what it would do.

I uninstalled it but the error showed up when I would click on a members name to view their journal.

Has anyone else tried this yet?

Mike

i got multiple stylesets but your installer will only install to the default is their a fix available?
