groovesalad...yes i do. you need to get with an appropriate server. one that reads and posts. the free ones are hard to find and are all sketchy. I have not been able to find one that reads and posts and I don't want to get a commercial one.
btw I listen to ur station all the time. |
Gilby,
Totally stumped why I cannot get the mail list gateway section to work. Do you have a working "class.POP3.php" sample you could PM me? BIG Thanks! Mood |
Got the mail list feature to work (didn't realize that you had to setup the mail account as a news group in nntp_groups)
Next question: HOW to avoid the circular effect when wanting to sync forum/nntp/mail list. anybody any ideas? Thanks Mood |
Cancel that its working. Different newsgroups must have different message ID's because I changed that and it worked.
Tried using newsranger and its not working. |
how come i am getting those errors?
please...tell me, i have installed everyhintg Warning: main(class.POP3.php3) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/bbs/gateway.php on line 25 Warning: main(class.POP3.php3) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/bbs/gateway.php on line 25 Warning: main() [function.main]: Failed opening 'class.POP3.php3' for inclusion (include_path='.:/php/includes:/usr/share/php') in /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/bbs/gateway.php on line 25 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/bbs/gateway.php:25) in /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/bbs/gateway.php on line 483 1 group(s) gatewayed.

Outstanding hack, Gilby - running fine on a clean vB 2.3.0 install.
I did have a small problem with cron jobs not running properly if I redirected stderr and stdout to /dev/null but I fixed that by writing the output to a log file instead. Can someone help this php n00b tweak the signature function a little? Instead of appending the username and custom title, what I'd like is *nothing* if the user doesn't have a signature, the user's signature appended to the post if he does, and instead of thread and profile links maybe something under the dashed line like "this post was gatewayed through the forum at http://pointbeing.com" No big deal, but if someone could knock something like that out for me in a couple minutes it'd be greatly appreciated. Here's the signature section of gateway.php - I don't really need the "unregistered user" section as unregistered users can't post. PHP Code:

Never mind, I fixed it :)

I'm shortly going to be adding the code to ensure that newsgroup posts aren't included in normal 'view new' so will that be all that's needed or do I need to do more? Installed this and the interface without problems, but I haven't run it yet. :D Also, I have attachments switched off on the board and I'm just using a couple of text groups. I'm using the interface so will that automatically not download attachments, or will they just be put into the database and not displayed on the board. If so how can I ensure it doesn't download binaries? I'm on a shared server and my host has been really encouraging to me re installing this hack. Don't want to push my luck by having the database grow massively. ;) Thanks for any help. |

any ideas on how to stop it updating all threads?
I have tried to install this but the newsgroup i want to get threads from has 3 months worth of posts - i only want the last months threads. everytime i manually prune the forum the next time the gateway.php runs it brings in the old posts again. |

Can someone tell me the correct syntax to run this line as a query and create this? ALTER TABLE thread ADD isusenetpost TINYINT(2) DEFAULT 0 not null; *I tried creating the table manually but after doing the mod and trying view new posts I got a white screen and suspect maybe the table I have is made wrong, thanks |
I couldn't get that querie to worked - kept giving me a syntax error. The post beneath that one you quoted provided the solution for me. :)
|
which NNTP service provider is everyone here using??
thanks |
Someone mentioned to remove certain users usenet posts you could do this
Quote:
DELETE FROM post WHERE username='username' of course replacing 'username' with the actual username who's posts you need deleted or is there some other code that must be added before this to the standard query from phpmyadmin? I seem to get a syntax error trying to run that line and assume i am missing a small code snippet that might go in front of that line of the querys? |
Post #334 mentioned to alter the table thread and add
ALTER TABLE thread ADD isusenetpost TINYINT(2) DEFAULT 0 not null; I did this manually and appears I have the table right but going by the last error I got was I supposed to make another change to mention that extra column? *I did also make the mod to search.php and appears to be blocking posts from "view new posts but now I have this error" |
Quote:
A compliant signature separator is <linefeed><dash><dash><space><linefeed> Gilby's hack (while outstanding) was missing the space and some newsreaders wouldn't strip the signature out of quoted vB Usenet posts. This hack has added real value to my board - thanks, Gilby! |

I'm just gearing up to switch the posting function on. Am a bit nervous of that in case it posts what's already there. I guess I'm gonna have to re-read this whole thread again <whimpers> but am I remembering rightly that people can't use the normal vbcodes when replying? Or if they do they don't get converted like they do on the way in? That'll take some getting used to for some of my members. |

DELETE FROM post WHERE username='username' <---this give me bad syntax when i run this query from phpmyadmin? is there something that goes in front or behind this...sorry for asking again but I've been waiting all weekend to be able to remove bulk spam posts and would appreciate help from anybody using phpadmin to run this query and delete posts by user, note I cannot mass prune by user from admincp and when I try it hops to the next page but appears there is buttons missing and I cant perform the action...perhaps others know what I mean.... |
Am I right in assuming that if I change this:

I like having the View New Usenet Posts alongside the normal one, but I just don't want the posts adding to my index. So changing to 0 will fix it right? |
will this now be compatable with vb3.0.0 ??

I recently moved my vbb to another server and get this error now when trying to manually sync my newsgroups from the cP...anybody know what it is and how I fix it, thank you

I have not checked into the codes. Anyone has a quick fix? :) The code use "include()", I vaguely remember it has some sort of security problem and I have changed them to "require_once()". |

I have mucked around a bit more to get this to work under vBulletin Version 3. A new post can be found here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=658 Quote:

Hello all
Hope someone can please help me, I have installed this wonderful hack and seem to have got it all working fine, it downloads new posts and replys to the 2 newsgroups. Anyway my problem is that the posts posted on my forum don't post on the newsgroups. I have posted one post and a reply and its been 3 hrs and still not appeared on the newsgroup. Out of interest I have posted via Outlook a message to the newsgroup and then within about 10 mins it appeared on my forum. Has anyone had this problem please and can point me in the right direction? Thanks very much Stuart |
I hope this is going to upgraded for vb3. :)

Sorry, only just noticed double post.

the gateway.php needs to be run regularly to retrieve and post your newly posted messeages to the news server. You can manually run the script and see what message you have on the screen. Just run: http:/www.yourforums.com/gateway.php |
Wow I must be one stupid +++++ I cant understand how to install this :cry:

Hello,
I installed the hack with no problem. I am trying to execute gateway.php - and its updating the forum, but the lastmsg in the nntp_groups table never gets updated - and the browser is attempting to download gateway.php any ideas? |
Hello
Is there anyway of making the newsgroups you downloaded NOT count for the final forum post count at the top of the screen? Thanks Stuart |
Hello

In the admin section you can edit the forum and there is an option close to the bottom were you state if you want the post count for that forum to be calculated in the total post count.
