My forum is on a subdomain so I had to change the include path as you suggested. But, then I found that the member of the day was generating SQL errors, so I commented that whole section out and it seems to be working. I don't have member-of-the-day installed.

Oops - my top thread starter is GUEST, leftover from when I imported into vB. That comes up with no username, and no link. Any way to pick up the second biggest thread starter?

ok. my full path is home/evolutio/public_html/forum/global.php
urls www.evolutionaryconcepts.com/forum/global.php

I used the full path and it is just a blank page.
still not sure whats going on....sorry to be a bother...:(

Ok, it seems some people can just upload the file and be done with it. But to be safer with less errors i added that it might be a good idea to install the hacks listed on your board page first. So if you installed the member of the day you should be fine and your website all of sudden has a member of the day feature! :)


Garo..theres no httpdocs folder or anything like that?

try this in the global path

forum/global.php

still getting nothing.....

Hmmm, second biggest thread starter? Have you tried deleting user GUEST? It might just pick up the next one in line, but im not sure.... I dont know, i never imported VB before. I am working on a next version of this which will be a hack of this hack and will have a few more options, maybe top 3 threads starters or something like that

There actually is no username GUEST it is just userid=0, which I believe the forum interprets to be a guest poster.

Not a big deal, in any case!

For the new hack, would it be possible to display the number of new posts (or threads even) since the last visit?

Thanks,

Matt

shame, its a great sounding hack but i also get a blank page with a table with 3 empty colums. tried all sorts of paths top global but no success. running 2.2.6 as i have too many hacks to bother with 2.2.7 and re-install everything :(

You guys' are putting this file into your FORUMS directory right? Cause so far everyone i give it to is happy, lol. Can you guys give me the URLS to your boardstat.php file?

That might be able to help me out a little bit.

I'm also getting a blank page. I have 2.2.6...and I changed the global.php reference to the full url.

www.ez-company.net/forums/boardstat.php

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in /home/httpd/vhosts/ez-company.net/httpdocs/forums/boardstat.php on line 5


This error is a server problem.. talk to your host to turn that off. I had to do the same thing. Also you cant use a URL in recalling global you need to use a path so something like

/home/httpd/vhosts/ezcompany.net/httpdocs/forums/global.php

Try that so far its 4 people with 17 successes. Most problem i believe come because of v 2.2.7
