Still checking it out but looks good so far...

I had to update journal titles with a "update journals set journalname=concat(journalist,"'s Journal") where 1;"...

Now to figure out the reverse date ordering (people don't like that); I've just added my RSS 1.0 output bit as well...

Thanks OBK - I owe you a pint :)

Try the latest zip (v0.3 PUBLIC BETA).

I'm hoping that I've cracked this one for you.. :)


You don't have to do that, though it's a nice idea. By default when a Journal is created in vBJournal if no title is entered it automatically becomes "x's Journal" without anything being entered in to that field.


I think this is what you're looking for..

I'll hold you to that! ;)

where can I dl RyAngel's journal? I've been looking for a journal program (it's taking a while to make our own as we dont have much spare time).

It wasn't publicly released here because permission was never received from Ryangel (the original author) to port his vB2 version to vB3.

The purpose of this hack is to import data from RyAngels journal into vBJournal, which I believe is currently the best supported journal system. You might want to give it a look.

ahhh... ok. thanks for clearing that up.

Sure thing. :)

OBK - question - what are the edits to journal.php for?

Ryangel's Journal stores your entries and comments with the slashes and some weird HTML encoding still in the table for both the title and the text. For example: [disable](It\'s warm in here >_>)[/disable]

The journal.php edits are done to make these display correctly by stripping the slashes and unencoding the weird HTML stuff on-the-fly. So in the above example, this now shows as: (It's warm in here >_>)

Okay :) I was just checking, as I had to make some changes to my RSS 1.0 exporter for vBJournal and I had to add some of those strip slashes things in as well... Thanks.
