Nope its not a portal output global. If you look at the header to that table of settings its named "options" and you should have a link to the right "add setting"

And this is where you make a new option variables. I did it that way so you can do it without editing the file to enter your cmps index filename. You can allways edit the file if you wish instead as stated below the code block for this setting in the first post. This variable should be a default variable in vba, I fail to understand why it doesnt exist, lets face it how many retain the filename cmps_index.php, however it doesnt exist so has to be added, at least you can add one, but when this var is 3rd party made its non standardised, I instruct this one is made, someone else says make one called cmpsindex for another module and so on, or the other option is you edit the file. :)

nope dont have that

Somethings not right with your vbA. The screens here is a clean install nothing in there but vbportal and vbulletin, just added vbA CMPS to it.

The reason your getting forums/.php is because the options array exists but not the custom variable itself. Dunno how you can fix that, your install of vbA must be bad or out of date if vbA didnt have these options at some time, cant remeber v1.x my encounter with that was so breif. Easiest way imo but not the right way would be just edit the file and change the variable option to your index filename there.

thats wierd

im gonna post on the vba forums with alink to this

bookmarked.

got some server updates to deal with first... but his is sooooooo on the list.

@Oap JTRipper I would ensure you have definately updated your admincp files for vbAdvanced, The add setting link I would guess is inside the file that vba reuire to upload to your admincp dir but you may wish to replace your vba includes/xml files aswell. Maybe its something overlooked while updating, or maybe its a file got corrupted during upload overwriting the old ones.

It dawned on me the other day to look at something, and I popped my tester out of debug mode and this add option link is gone. So thats the answer, you need to enable debug mode to add this new vba option. Note do not leave a live installation in debug mode it is far from recomended, but is no problem to set debug mode on and add this option and then comment or remove the added debug mode line after from your vb config.php. :)
