I'd like to pay for the full version of this mod, but I'd like to know if the full version has the same issue as I've posted above. (Where you cannot limit the number of first posts from a forum, as the insert and update queries doesn't seem to be sending that variable into the database...)

Anyone?

The pro does not have that issue :)

- Zero Tolerance

new pro version now available http://forums.infernotechnologies.ne...-Rel-t374.html

Do I need to try this? I think I already run the extremely outdated last version, and didn't notice a new version of the mod was released, so does this add many great features?

Never mind. Seems to be working on vBulletin 3.7 Release Candidate 1, but it did show 1970 as the date for any old topics. I kinda fixed this just by removing the whole column which shows the date from the templates.

Nice modification, although I do miss the 'Newest Member' part from the older one... thinking of bringing that back?

Cheatmaster, newest members is available in the pro version =)

So that went from being a free option to a paid one? Thanks for that information. For some reason though, now I seem to be having a problem with this mod in that no data is shown. It worked earlier today and yesterday, yet it doesn't show up today, and there have been no changes to the .htaccess file or anything.

for some reason if i'm not logged into the forums i cannot see the news post. i have this mod on another site/forum and don't have this issue. i'm running 3.7.0 RC2 on this site though. any thoughts?

Hey pewp, could i request that you post your issue in the support forums on the itech website in the first post? Our support agents will be able to help you much faster that way

Sure thing...

Does anyone here that has this installed get the issue that I'm getting? When you are logged out or not a forum member you are unable to view the outputs? I went back to the old v1.6 on one of my sites cause it was the only one I can get to display the output if you aren't a site member.

This mods looks great - I just want to have a section on the front page of my website (which isn't run by vBulletin) that says "x active users on our forum".

Is there any way to make the mod display a TOTAL number of users online, instead of the seperate numbers for each group?

hi i just installed this mod. and well i get an error every time i try and put it in my php.

line 2 is just <?php and when its a blank document with the style css it give me an error on line 1 where the style is located.

I will pay someone to mod vBexternal to display attachments. You can contact me on yahoo instant messenger at projectfanboy or email me at steven@projectfanboy.com if you're interested.

(I already contacted the author, but he said they didn't have time right now)

I can't even get this to display images or parse any other BBcode. Posted about it yesterday and it's been viewed a few times, but no responses. I'm sure the author will get to it eventually, but if anyone here has had this issue and figured out a way to overcome it some info would be appreciated.

Same here.

I'm interested in using the vBulletin Blogging component....but we need to be able to display these blog posts on our main page for a select number of users (or based on user group).

Would this mod allow us to do that?

I've tried this, created a blank index2.php, added the code and all I get is a blank page

Any ideas?

Thanks

I ended up just using vbAdvanced instead, it's actually a lot more customizable then it used to be.

I tried vBA but I want the look and feel of my site only showing a few items of the forum, so I'm still trying other methods.

I am wanting to insert an ad into the text of a post, but only the first post, on my external news page. Will the Lite or paid version allow for this? If not is each post block numbered? If it's numbered I imagine I could hack this in myself fairly easily?

trying to do so for days but the domain is not reachable... I have some support questions there on my ordered products open but I can't reach the page - so what is that? No answer over the messenger, not reachable over your supportboard and no info at all like an email to your customers or so. maybe you just have blocked my IP or my IP range as it has been before, but at the moment I am not able to go to an internet cafe or use a proxyserver to reach te page even when I can't reach it from home... remember?

well my question here is if I can do someting to break the pages somehow so it will not show a hundred results on one page but on lets say about twenty-five posts and then break the page with an arrow pointing back and forth to browse more efficient... when I show all the posts in the 3d section, the browser will take ages to load those masses when everything is to be shown on one page.

thx for the help

Yeah their support site has been down for almost a month now I think.

So, if these guys don't come back is there anyone that might step up and take this addon over? It was really the only one of its kind and I loved it back when I had it fully functional on my old site. Since I've upgraded to 3.7.x I've not been able to get images to parse, but it still works.

My forum is in Portuguese, and when I use this product, the data comes with accent errors. Is there any way to solve that? How could I change the code to UTF-8?
Thanks

Try this But make a backup first and read what the requirements are before you start anything =)

I am looking for this info as well. On the mod description it does say the Thread Posts block can be configured to display Blogs on an external page, but I'm just not seeing a blog option in the blocks preferences. I have gotten it to work for recent posts, but not blogs.

Anyone figure this out?

Thanks much!

D. :)

I actually haven't done anything with this. Sorry!

Anyone here heard anything from these guys? The site has been down for quite some time now. I went to purchase the pro version of this in hopes that I wouldn't have the bbocode parsing issues a month or so ago and their site was down. I guess I dodged a bullet there.

Would DEFINATELY like this to be re-opened!! Excellent mod and so much potential.

Open infernoexternal/blocks/inferno_block_thread_posts.php

Perform a "Find and Replace"

Find: maxthreads
Replace with: maxpthreads

Do this to ALL found results.

Reupload file. It was a simple variable typo not allowing the post data to save in MySQL.

I am actually not impressed at all at Zero Tolerance. I paid for the full version of RPG Inferno for VB, and now they took their site down without any notification at all to anyone on the numerous site he visits. Even the domain itself is gone off of every search engine I looked up. Now I learn about a major security vulnerability caused by this Mod, and no one around to help to fix it. Sounds kind of fishy to me.

Just to note I was on the tech support team for infernotechnologies, ZT has fallen off the earth and consider support gone. I will check up on the free threads and do what I can to help people but no guarantee.

NVM, I'm a tool. The answer is a few posts above.

Thanks Slippy -

I think the only pressing question is how many posts are displayed. Every time I choose a maximum of 10 and save the settings, the area I had entered 10 in is blank again.

Also, is there a way to remove the author of the posts from the display - so it just lists thread topics?

Thanks much! :)

BBCode is not being parsed. i am seeing tags for color and so on when users apply these tags to their posts. Anyone having a similar issue? Have you found a work around?

See, now that I have a partially made RPG for my site and Zero decides to take all support offline, that kinda *crewed me over. I do thank you ssslippy for your offer to help. I was going to use one of the codes he provided on the old site to allow members of my site to select a character, be able to travel around a global map, fight enemies, build stats, interact with each other, etc... but now I don't know what I'm going to do. :(

I found a few errors the same as many of the previous posters here... I quickly tried the older version found here and it works fine!

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=147344

You don't have any snazzy admincp areas to help you keep it all organized but it works better IMO. If anyone needs help w/ the older version or ?'s on how to add more "blocks" then simply PM me for assistance - this is not one of my mod threads so I most likely will not be checking back here again unless I browse etc so please PM for help instead of posting, if it works then we post here what we did!

S-MAN

Edit: Ohh and I will be testing this for a 3.7.4 board this weekend (the older, stable version like I mentioned above) so I will post if it works after the test!

Is there an updated one for the latest vb 3.8.2?

Fatal error: Class 'infernoexternal_acp' not found in /home/***/infernoexternal/engine/inferno_acp.php on line 12

It's to bad this mod is dead, it was one of my fav as it let me use my forum as a cms without the front end looking like a cms.

Is there something like this for vBulletin 4?
