True that. I will release the new version. It will hopefully be what you're all wanting, features and stability wise.

I'm in the same boat, I love this hack but I can't install it on my live forum until the edit feature is working. But as soon as that's fixed, I'll be installing it and sending some $ too you.

I really love this hack!!!

why not charge $15 for it, so you have more incentive to work on it, or by donation. Its a cool system and will ad value to our forums so I don't see any problem in paying a bit to have a clean working script like this. I'm sure others will agree.

I totally disagree with this. vBulletin.org is for free vBulletin modifications. If he will not release this modification here it will not be known as much as it is known right now. Donation is something else buyt charging is totally something else and if it will be like that i'll choose to uninstall this mod and i believe lots of people will do the same.

Hey its all good but Swedie your going about this all wrong. If you want to generate money you cant upload on a free site and on top of it have a version that isnt working properly. I think if you stop and look at it from my view you will see that would not make money for you right?

And not to be rude but I even gave you my email to contact me off of vb.org remember? I PM'ed you and said if you can work directly on my site I would pay. I never heard back from you after you gave me your email.

So that made me decide to un-install the hack.

Updatting is going to be hard for you guys if he makes a new version that has a bunch of re-writes to the hack.

I dont know what version is what. I wish you guys the best of luck

Same here. Although our forum doesn't make money, if a hack is good we don't have a problem "donating" some money. The problem is that this hack should have gone through beta first, there were far too many problems in the early versions. Most people that would have been willing to donate uninstalled this hack a long time ago and there's an overall "dissapointed" feeling throughout this thread. It's a great idea and I've stuck with it and even found workarounds to the edit problems but it has taken up alot of my own time to get it working and it's still rather buggy. I'm patiently waiting for the update, but I'm sorry swedie, it's hard to make a donation for an unfinished hack.

I'm willing to donate a hack,
if this hack is working without database crash und if it is work in all browsers, not only in IE
gustbook doesn't work for me,

webpage --- more than one day I spend to repair the html
because it is neither correct html nor xhtml
and

I'm not a good coder but hardcoded (false) html in php files
isn't necessary

I know that we have done this many years ago..
but today?!

also I've spent many time to use all my different styles in the templates

Sweedi
your idea is great
but
please take a look at some modification on the board here...
some with full installscripts
correct html and php code like jelsoft
and a full support service

best regards

Hi everyone.... I am trying to install this mod but I can't figure out the INIT bitfields. I have read and reread the instructions and the posts but my INIT bitfields are different. Me being new to PHP and VB I cannot figure this out.

Here is what my field names for general permissions (vb version 3.0.07) looks like:

Can someone tell me how to fix this to include this mods field numbers?

Any help is greatly appreciated.....( I am too young to have so much gray hair --- besides...gray hair on girls is not attractive LOL )

'caneditownusernotes' => 131072,
'canseehiddencustomfields' => 262144,
'canhaveguestbook' => 524288,
'canhavewebpage' => 1048576,
'canviewwebpage' => 2097152,
'canviewguestbook' => 4194304,
'canpostguestbook' => 8388608

You need to multiply by the number 2 I did it for you. Copy and paste I hope this helps.

I applied the numbers you provided but I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in MISP\lpsforum\includes\init.php on line 815
Parsing functions.php Time before: 1112554915.89 Time after: 1112554915.94 Time taken: 0.054046869278

How do I fix this?

Also here is the blond moment of the day ( I am blonde so I can say that LOL)

How does one create a webpage or guestbook? I've looked the CP but no options there..... I went to this php "webgbset.php" but it's blank.

I have a question... I just found this mod Webpage & Guestbook Standalone Hack
Author: Creed (Daniel Caldwell) in this topic...... Which is the best to go with for my Community Website?

What does it say on line 815? And how the heck do I know which is best lol. I like both.

looks like you had the right numbers the first time round. Flow Fusion must have missed the reputation bit at the end, that's a continuation of the previous and you need to continue from the last highest value. Tip: to keep things tidy, try to keep things in order, from smallest number to largest number, that way you will know whether you have duplicate values and if you need to add more for future hacks you'll know which number to start from. If you're using 3.0.6 or above and you've not added any values for other hacks in this section you should end up with something like this:
As Flow Fusion mentioned, the next value in the series is double that of the previous value.... hence why it's best to keep things in order.

You should get the hack completely installed first.

I believe Creeds hack requires this hack to be installed and his hack is an add-on to this one.

Thanks so much....the edits you gave me for the init.php worked...

So....I finished up the last two steps:

But when I go to http://yourlincolnpark.com/lpsforum/webgbset.php

The page is blank.

I went over all the edits again, checked that the insert.sql info was done and it all looked correct based on the instructions yet I can't get the webgset.php to work nor can I find where to access this mod.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

webgbset is the "style sheet" for this hack, you will get a blank page if you view it in a browser. You need to open the file with something like wordpad or a html editor like dreamweaver. You'll see the list of settings such as background for the guestbook etc. and you can change these colours/settings to match your forum design. Hopefully in the next version, Swedie will have updated the styles issue so that this hack inherits the style from the forum, but in the meantime, webpgset is how you'll customise the style of this hack.

Where would a user go to add a webpage and guestbook? I don't find any links in the CP, etc.

The webpage and guestbook should appear in a member's profile page when they turn them on. Make sure you've allowed the usergroups you want to use this hack to actually use it by editing the permissions in the usergroup section of your adminCP, then head over to the userCP in the forum and you'll see the item in the left hand side menu of your userCP.

Hi Snow...ok.... so far I can see Webpage Content and Guestbook settings in the CP. When I click on Webpage content it shows a form (which is huge); and allows me to put data in the fields but when I click update nothing happens.

Also, there is a error on this page (in status area of browser)
Line:35
Char:1
Error: Object Expected
Code: 0
url: http://www.yourlincolnpark.com/lpsfo...do=editwebpage

I went back through all the edits and tempaltes, etc. and confirmed all is correct and I went through the usergroup permissions, phrases, etc.

I screwed up somewhere but I can't figure out where. What do you think? ;)

Is that error actually displayed on the page itself? :ermm:

Your permissions don't allow guests to see a member's profile page, is the guestbook or webpage actually showing on the member.php page? (See my page if you're not sure what I'm referring to). When you click Update it will stay on the same 'edit' page but your profile will (or should) have been updated.

Hi Snow...mine looks NOTHING like yours.....mine just shows the form input fields. Your's looks AWESOME......How do I get mine to look like yours?

The screen shots show you the page error I am getting and what the screen looks like when I click on webpage content.

If I click the update button...the screen looks the same as it did before I clicked update button.

The actual webpage and guestbook is located on the member.php page, whereas the form you are seeing is in your userCP, that's where you'll edit all your settings and add your webpage. As for internet explorer errors *shudder* ugh I don't use IE so I can't help you there.

Anyway, when you've set up your guestbook and entered your webpage, go to your profile page by clicking the "view my profile page" link that's on the right of the webpage form. You should see your webpage & guestbook there then, if not then either there's something wrong with your templates or you haven't set up the permissions correctly. It might help if you could allow guests to view profile pages or provide a test user login so that people here can check to see what's actually happening.

I am bummed...I can't get this work....

Hmmm...maybe it's the Webpage & Guestbook Standalone Hack.... lemme try that.

Sorry guys! Haven't had time to work on this script much. Roadracing season has begun. This script was from the beginning just an extra thingy for my own website and I didn't have the intention to make it a "public release", but after many requests I took some time to create and installation guide. It is a modification that requires changes to files and such, will therefor not make a "real installation" for it. I just don't have the time. I will put an indication in the first post in this thread to Note that this is an advanced modification.

Hopefully I will have this new version up in an hour. But I want to do some simple testings before I release it.

brb

btw, thanks to everyone here for helping "newbies" (if I may call them that) that wants help installing the script.

can't wait to test it out :)

There we go. I uploaded the latest version. I HOPE TO GOD that it works. If not, shoot me and tell me to go to hell.

I upgraded with no problem. Right now the guestbook is working ( i didn't check webpage cause i am not using it )
But when i wanted to edit a users guestbook entry i get this warning ant nothing changed :
Warning: Missing argument 1 for print_standard_redirect() in /includes/functions.php on line 2241
Also i get the same error when I wanted to edit my own entry for myself.
You can make an entry but you cannot edit it.

Well that's just great isn't it. Sorry, I will take a look at this now. Taking down the download for now.

Swedie :) The guestbook colors are working right now :rolleyes: that's even a big step forward ;)

wheres the zip lol ??

Um, I think that explains it.

sorry missed that :P

Fixed last little issue there. Sorry about that.

Download and test it. It should work. If not... like I said before. Slice me nice

Right now I dont get that error but unfortunately I cannot edit any guestbook entries even if I entered the entry.

AWESOME!!!! FINALLY it's working on my site... Lizard FYI I testing the edit of the guestbook and the removal and both work for me... I have version 3.0.7.

But I did notice that it doesn't give the choice for VB or HTML....

Trying out the edit function and I cannot get it to fail. I hope you copied and pasted everything .. and umh. Yeah. Darn. Wish it would work for you.

Did you update the template for modify_webpage? Works for me.

Swedie :nervous: :nervous: it's not working for me either, I still can't delete or edit entries, other than that, everything else looks OK at the moment. I can give you access to my forum if you don't believe me and you can try deleting/editing the entries yourself. BTW, I think it works if there's only one entry in the guestbook, it's when there's more than one that it doesn't work.
