Whoops :)
That column isn't necessary, but seems like I forgot to remove some references ... ZIP updated.

Testing ... works!
Thank you. ;)

Kirby, is there a way to make the file line length longer? I want to add my chat room to it but it is a java script showwin string and it cuts it off about 2/3 of the way through.

What's the filename you want to add?

This:

You want to add chat.php :)
As that it the filename of the script.

I know. I had that but I had to add chat/chat.php to make it work. And it worked but it won't open in a window. It goes fullscreen. :(

I C. So you want this URL to be the URL that is show on WOL, right?
That's not possible with this Hack.

But you can code a Plugin for that.

No, I want that as the file and the URL that shows would be RealChat Rooms.

And by the way, this upgraded version is great! It works like a charm. Good job! ;)

You can't have this as the filename, as it is not the filename.
However you can code a Plugin that uses this as the URL on WOL.

Take a look at the Plugins this Hack creates to get the idea how to do that.

Would I have to do a separate plugin for each time I wanted to do that or could I just keep adding links like this to it? That might actually work out better as a plugin.

This Hack is designed to handle simple Things like page1.php - Viewing Page 1 etc.

For more complicated stuff, as said, you have to make your own Plugins :)

The question I asked above was about plug-ins. I understand what you mean about the hack. I'm asking if I can add more links like this to a plg-in or would I have to do a separate plug-in for each link? ;)

You can do it in 1 Plugin and i'd recommend to make only 1 Plugin.

One plug-in for multiple links or one plug-in for this one link? I just want to make sure I get it right is all.

1 Plugin

Working like a charm. I would say the README needs to state where to find the options (which are under Maintenance).

Added that to the readme :)

Kirby, is there any way to make this recognize urls in a subfolder within the forums? For example, I have PhotoPost installed and would like to simply have everything in the folder forumroot/gallery/ to show up as In the Gallery.

Is this possible with this?

Depends.
AFAIK the existing Hooks only handle Filenames. So if the Filenames are unique it should work, otherwise I think it will not.

Yeah that seems to be the problem, as well as photopost using their spider friendly urls with '/' and categories after the filename. Thanks though, still keeping the plugin. :)

I try to import the style and it tells me "Invalid or empty style file specified"... what does this mean? I am importing it through ACP/Download Upload Styles, tried it a bunch of ways. Am I in the wrong spot?

Ahh, after re-reading everything here, I now realize that this hack will not work for vb 3.0.7. My apologies!

Is this compatible with gold?

Dave

Yes it is.

3.5 gold

I am probably doing something stupid but I cannot get the link to go to a page outside the forum directory.

Can you please be more specific?

When I go to WOL the page I added to the custom WOL give the link as 404 removed
instead of
www.ahfb2000.com/html.php

That's got to be an error on your part. The mod wouldn't just add a directory to the link all by itself. Check the info in your admincp.

This Hack is not designed to work with files outside Forum root.

thanks, I will uninstall

I have vBa links installed in a directory in the same root as the forum, but not in the forum directory. So this will not work? :tired: That's too bad, it looks terrific. Do you know of a mod that will work?

Thanks, Cliff

Same problem here but with vba gallery, vba links and vbadvanced portal...

I was able to make the link go outside the forum dir by adding 2 dots in front (eg "../gallery/" for "www.e-steki.com/gallery/") and it's displayed correctly in the settings but it sadly doesn't work in the whoisonline... :(

Rats I should have read the entire thread before installing. :) I have photopost in /gallery and have spider friendly URLs up as well and it looks like this cant fix the unknown location problem for them in Whosonline. :(

Screenshots plz ffs tyvm :P

This would probably apply to me as well, as I am strongly considering PhotoPost. Any possible workaround in the future?

This doesnt work for me either, i wanted to specify portal and Gallery WOL additions.


uninstalling. But its an awesome hack! Ill wait for a modification or something.

Well, I could add an input for a path. Buth still then, for more complex WOL stuff (eg. IDs invloved, etc.) you will have to code your own Plugins.

thankx Andreas
Installed & Runed succsefully

But I have a question
it says : can I run it over an external file ( outside forums directory ) ? If yes thats will be great If No so Is there any way to do this ?

Not possible - yet.
But you can take a look at the Plugins this Hack creates/updates to understand how WOL worksm and then make your own Plugins.
Or take a look at the How-To section.
