croft - Did you change your cookie settings as instructed in the install file?

mbowers - If your news forum is private, then the posts should only show up for people who have permission to view them. If you want to exclude the forum all together though, you can look in your myvbindex.php file for:
Replace that with:
(Change XX there to the forum id of your news forum)

Yuber - I have the majority of the script working on my test site. I haven't added the poll or weather features yet since I don't use them, but the rest of the script is done. I also have to make an upgrade script that will install the templates and etc, plus write up some install instructions. Other than those few things though, the majority of the work is done. I've been extremely busy these last few weeks, so I haven't had much time to finish off those last few things. *Hopefully* I'll have a little more free time over these next couple of weeks.

Again, I would be more than willing to test it on my test site. I love this hack and will not move to vB3 until you have this ready to go so anything can do to help with testing I will.

as far as i know you will see it but not others

Yeah i fixed the cookie thingie =) thanks.

Some other questions tho.

1: How do i make it on the myvbindex page where latest forum topic is. I want it to show the last poster and not the starter of the post ?

2: Is there any way to add a link page or something to this script ?

3: is it possible to add some sort of download hack for this script ? Like where we can post all our downloads ?

1. no idea


2. there are two custom templates that appear on each side that you can add to it.

3. i think your refering to something more along the lines of php nuke or post nuke.

1. Modify your index_threadbits template. The code is already there. ;)

2. Something like this? - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=49156

3. Something like this? - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=45454

how does the arcive make for a downloads system?

Oops... I guess I copied the wrong link. Just fixed it. :)

I really hate to be rude or annoying, but I am truly in need of a vB3 portal -- my boss wants it! :eek:

I'd be even happy to test it out for you so that you can also see how it works on other boards.

PLEASE! I am desparate!!!

Thanks

I did exactly that after my members complained:

I replaced the index_threadbit with

<tr><td bgcolor="$getbgrow">$thread[icon]<normalfont><a href="$bburl/showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$thread[threadid]" title="Last post at $lastposttime by $thread[lastposter]"><b>$title</b></a></normalfont><br>
<smallfont color="#666686">$lastposttime</smallfont><br>
<smallfont> by <a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&find=lastposter&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><b>$thread[lastposter]</b></a><br>
Replies: $thread[replycount] | Views: $thread[views]</smallfont></td></tr>


This will display the last poster and last post time in the latests threads box. I am going to make it so that the link goes to the last post as well...just haven't yet.
