I understand that part... that it's readable in notepad/wordpad .. however, there are no steps nor any working code in the module file.

I have made all attempts that i know of to use this module file.
1. Download/Upload - error: "invalid module file"
2. Add a Module - Tried all 3 (Template/PHP File/BB Code) without luck. This included what I suspect you are suggesting, which is copying and pasting the code from the .module file. No luck here either.
3. Add Page - none of those options work either.

Have you tried your suggested method? If you could explain the steps needed from start to finish, i can try them - but at this point, i don't think you can just paste the .module code anywhere without either referencing other files or other steps i'm just not aware of.

Are you sitting comfortably.

Step 1....


title--------vBIspy Block


identifier---------what you want


filename------vbispy (must be the php file)


use shell template-------- no

ok save the block and then you need to make a new template called
and use this content

Now if it is activated there is no reason why it should not work :) .....

Sorry to sound naive, but it still not exactly as clear as i had hoped.

1. What kind of module? "Add Module -> PHP File" ?

And what php file? Included in this thread is only the .module file. Are you saying you have to put a copy of the "vaispy.php" file from the non-cmps VBSpy hack into your module folder?

i cant create a module on vBadvanced running with vb3.6.2 -* vba 2.2.1
how can i create ?

This is a great hack and it's running fine on my site with vb 3.6.4 and vBadvanced CMPS v2.2.1.

I'm wondering if some of you are having the same problem that I did when I first installed, when I downloaded the zipped module files from the different locations on this thread. I don't know why, but there was a lot of garbage code in the beginning when I unzipped, that I didn't notice at first. When I copied the code from within the posts instead, it worked fine for me. I don't know if this helps or not, but I thought I'd share what made it work for me.

Also, someone asked about server load. I haven't noticed that, HOWEVER I have noticed that it makes my "page views" through the roof on my server logs, so I exclude vaispy.php from my reports to get a more accurate picture of actual human page views.

If there is anyone that is moderate in jscript and the php/ajax that surrounds this module, I would be willing to pay to identify the problem that most of us seem to be facing. No one is fixing this issue. If you are good, please PM me.

Thank you.

While trying to upload the module I get the following error message:

"The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

What do you exactly mean by "Add the vbispyblock.module to your vBAdvance portal".

If you mean I should click "Download / Upload Module" link, it gives me this error "The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

While trying to upload the module I get the following error message:

"The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

That's what happening with me too.

I think this mod is not being supported any more.
