I would be interested in this as well.

SVTBlackLight01, I visited your forum and saw that you got a great forum and the nice news in front page with picture. Are you attaching the picture manually using HTML editor? Is the news using this hack?

Yes, the news section on the front page is manually edited. I had switched to this hack for a while because I liked having the views, posts etc. I wanted to have the pictures, though so I switched back to what I have now.

That's a nice site. Please check your PM also.

great hack, will it work on vb3?

/me tries but oops we get a problem
mySQL error:Table 'deadlyf_PUB.post' doesn't exist
which it clearly does, is there a way to sort this or will this not work with vb3?

Hack looks great. However Im having a small problem?
Im getting these error messages:

Notice: Use of undefined constant threadid - assumed 'threadid' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 64

Notice: Use of undefined constant lastpost - assumed 'lastpost' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 67

Notice: Use of undefined constant lastposter - assumed 'lastposter' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 68

Notice: Use of undefined constant forumid - assumed 'forumid' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 69

Notice: Use of undefined constant open - assumed 'open' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 70

Notice: Use of undefined constant views - assumed 'views' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 71

Notice: Use of undefined constant replycount - assumed 'replycount' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\moodle\newsconfig.php on line 72

etc.

The new table loads, but is preceded by those errors.

Any help?
Thanks,

BTW heres lines 52-72 if that helps:


$news = array();
while($tableLine = mysql_fetch_assoc($cekilen_news)) {
$tmpTableArray = array($tableLine);
$news = array_merge($news, $tmpTableArray); }
}

// Getting thread information for news articles
for ($i=0; $i<$news_number; $i++)
{
$cekilecek_thread_id=$news[$i][threadid];
$cekilen_thread=mysql_query("select lastpost, lastposter, forumid, open, views, replycount from thread where threadid=$cekilecek_thread_id");
if (mysql_error()) {echo "mySQL error:"; echo mysql_error(); exit;}
$news[$i][lastpost]=mysql_result($cekilen_thread,0, "lastpost");
$news[$i][lastposter]=mysql_result($cekilen_thread,0, "lastposter");
$news[$i][forumid]=mysql_result($cekilen_thread,0, "forumid");
$news[$i][open]=mysql_result($cekilen_thread,0, "open");
$news[$i][views]=mysql_result($cekilen_thread,0, "views");
$news[$i][replycount]=mysql_result($cekilen_thread,0, "replycount");
//getting forum name

it is because of error reporting settings of your PHP installations. Adding:
(to the hack code at the beginning of it just one line below <?php)
should fix the problem..

Or you can ask your server admin and make him disable NOTICE errors in php.ini but my solution is easier.. :)

I really appreciate the quick reply! Hack rocks, and support rocks!

Thanks again.

hey hey... i don't agree...

the notice say that these constant are undefined, so it will assume their name...

look at this...

and this...

the parser assumed [threadid] is ['threadid'] isn't it? why just replace [threadid] with ['threadid']... the notice sure will gone...

btw, disable the error on production site is the general rule, instead use an error log... but let's think... if somewhere in the app, there's some constant named [threadid] defined before this code line... i'm sure it will mess up the result...

every parser error messages are bad... [notice] is just not as bad as [error]
