2k05gt 02-24-2009 03:47 AM

Where can I find this type add on for 3.8.1? Please Advise

geevest.com 02-26-2009 12:53 PM

its work for vb 3.8.1 version?

Delilahs 03-03-2009 11:23 PM

I've nearly got it to work on 3.8.1, but just get the following error when I click on the link to show the sponsor.

http://www.delilahs.co.uk/forum/%E2%...nk.php?f=13%94

If you take out the "%E2%80%9D" from the url above the sponsors link works perfectly, does anyone know what can be done to rectify the problem?

Jester@ARS 03-04-2009 06:53 PM

I have this mod working on 3.8.1..

I think the biggest issue is that the instructions listed on their website are in a funky character set and vB doesn't recognize the double quotes.. Go thru and replace the quotation marks in their template modifications with normal quotes in wordpad, notepad, etc and change the max version to 3.8.1 in the install xml and you're in business..

Make sure you have a "http://" in front of your sponsor's address..

IE - http://www.sponsor.com versus www.sponsor.com

wraggster 03-22-2009 08:49 AM

Hello there,
I am using vB.Sponsors on my forum and was given a couple of flash banners to use, which, alas, did not work as vB.S is using an img tag and the flash seems to want to use an embed tag to display the content.

I'm no expert at doing this but had a look at the code for the mod and the code to placed in the template's and worked out that what I needed were a few options for the two banner items.

One is to say if the banner is flash or not, if it's not then it'll use the normal img tag code, if it is flash then it'll use the flash code, so I put in a simple "if" conditional. I also figured out I'd need to supply width and height, so I added those options to. Thus there are a total of six new options (three per sponsor banner).

Anyway, my point being, it might not be pretty in the admincp, but the code side of things does indeed seem to be working and flash banners are displaying, thus I thought I should contact you and suggest I forward over my modification to you, as it's your mod, and you could take a look and decide if it's worthy of an update to the official release of vB.Sponsors

I tried to email via your website but the CAPTCHA verification image is not being displayed (I'm using OS X 10.5.7 with Safari 4 and Firefox 3.5)

VonDoom 07-24-2009 12:41 AM

So far ive got this badboy to show up where it supposed to but the links arnt redirecting to the sponsors site. i suppose ill tinker with it for awhile on my test board. Will click installed when i get it working 100%

jwashburn 08-08-2009 06:00 PM

I had this working for ever, I just realized it has broken. I get the right link, but it never redirects to the new site.

Problem solved. I moved my forum and forgot to update the links.php page

Check the path to your forum in Links.php

VonDoom 08-09-2009 05:55 PM

I am getting some reports from a couple members after I installed this mod that when they try and use the vb search feature they are getting this message

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

Anyone know what this is all about and how to fix?

Can someone help me please

Dannyloski 10-16-2009 06:43 PM

How can I get this to work on vB 3.8.4 PL1? I install and get a not compatible message.

surfer2124 11-08-2009 12:10 AM

Remove this from the XML

Code:

<versioncheckurl><![CDATA[https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=checkversion&t=131512]]></versioncheckurl>
        <dependencies>
                <dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="3.6.0" maxversion="3.7.9" />
        </dependencies>

Open the links.php file found in upload/vbsponsors folder and edit your forum path. Then of course do the necessary template edits.

joeycannoli 11-22-2009 08:45 PM

Anyone have an idea on how to install this? The links dont seem to be working.

pkzochow 11-25-2009 12:06 AM

Does anyone know which template to edit where to get the sponsor at the top of the forum with the threads? I have it working on the forum index, but when clicking on the fourm it doesn't display at the top.

Thanks.

Gottcha 11-27-2009 01:34 PM

trying to get the instructions and page cannot be found.

Gottcha 11-29-2009 11:49 PM

by chance would anyone have a copy of the instructions that i may have please

PossumX 11-30-2009 08:43 PM

Any chance of this mod being updated for vB 4.0 when the time comes? I am reliant on it's function for forum sponsorships.

Stephan Whelan 12-06-2009 09:00 AM

I'm keen on getting the install guide as well - anyone got it?

PossumX 12-06-2009 02:59 PM

The whole DigitalDeviation site has long since been changed, and the developer hasn't been on this site since February 2009.

Is there any other modification that allows forum level sponsors, in a fashion similar to this? I will never be able to upgrade to vB 4 if this is not available in some fashion.

Anyone? how are other folks handling forum level sponsorships? In a quandary, as I need this ability to move forward with upgrade in the next month or 2.

novabandit 12-28-2009 10:32 PM

I'm in the same boat.

I found the dev on Twitter, but he never responded...

I'd pitch in $20 for this in VB4!

PossumX 01-04-2010 09:59 PM

<u>Anyone</u> know of any other modification that provides this type of function and is or will be vB 4.x compatible?

Jonathan81 01-06-2010 11:46 AM

Are there any installation instructions anywhere?

Jonathan81 01-06-2010 11:54 AM

An answer to my own question: http://web.archive.org/web/200806300...ion/vbsponsors#

EDIT: Better paste the above into this thread incase it disappears at some point:

vB.Sponsors 2.0.x Installation Guide
Product Requirements
Version 2.0.5 has been tested with vBulletin 3.6x. If you need a version for vBulletin 3.5.x, please see vB.Sponsors version 1.x.

Product Installation

1.Extract the contents of vB.Sponsors.zip to your computer
2.Open upload/vB.Sponsors/link.php in notepad, wordpad or similar editor.
3.On line 30, enter the path to your forum. This is the physical path not the URL. If your forum is located in /usr/com/userid/forums/, the path would be /usr/com/userid/forums/.
You can find the physical path to your forum directory by uploading the settings-check.php file that is located in the do not upload/vB.Sponsors directory. Upload this to the vB.Sponsors directory on your web site. To run it, simply browse to http://web.archive.org/web/200806120...ings-check.php in your browser. Please delete this file when you are done.
4.Upload the files in the upload directory to the corresponding directory on the web server under the forum directory.
5.Open the Admin CP of your board. On the left hand side scroll down to Plugins & Products.
6.Click on Manage Products.
7.Click on Add/Import Product.
8.Click on Browse... and choose the product-vB.Sponsors.xml file.
9.Click Import.
Template Installation

You will need to modify the templates of your style(s). Sample template code is included with the download. This is for the default vBulletin style only. I highly recommend that you create a test style to apply template changes before you commit them to your regular styles.

Any chance this could be updated to work with version 4 ?

I would really appreciate it :D

MagicThemeParks 01-10-2010 03:40 AM

Installed on 3.8.4 with no problems. Made sure to eliminate the version check as detailed in Post #66 on this thread.

One issue though is the fact that the forum name and the counts are now aligned to the top. Any suggestions on how to fix that?

Attached are the before and after pics
