I keep getting "Page Cannot Be Found"

It tries to go to www.domain.com/search/forum/something.html.

My forums are not in a /forum subdirectory, and I do not have that in the config.php.

Any ideas?

Could anyone take on the challenge to get this archive to work with the CoOp Ad Network?

Is Mod-mime a file that you actually download...or is it a piece of code you copy and paste? I went to http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_mime.html
and I couldn't figure out how to install mod-mime. Can anybody please tell me how to dowload or what to look for?
THANKS!

Question on the two parts of installation:

Quote:

[Step 2] Open up config.php and edit the variables inside it. Be sure not to include trailing slashes on any of the URL's.

What varibles should I look for? I'm new to this so any information is helpful.

Quote:

[Step 3] Upload all 8 files (.htaccess, archive_functions.php config.php, footer.php, forum, header.php, index.php and topic) in ASCII mode to the new directory you created in Step 1.

Where do I get these 8 files...Do I simply make them up or copy them from the actual Forum??

thnx very much
it works good at all EXEPT one issue which when you clicked (Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images) you have the domain.ext/showthread.php?threadid=$threadinfo[threadid]

knowing that i'm installing forums in sub directory called vb & i have edited the variable ($archive_options['forumurl']) in config.php file to the correct URL (domain.com/vb) without TRAILING SLASH

thouth i think that hack catching the domain name only in linking operation for topics & discard any thing after .ext (ie: .com)

Need to clear this Issue to fix it

I Can Fix It through topic file by putting forums directory after $forumurl & before showthread.php?threadid=$threadinfo[threadid] @ line 86

I know that this is a silly fix but its temporary till you tell us the solve .

Regards

Yes Sal, it's done within the fetch_footer function in the archive_functions.php file, not the footer.php.

In archive_functions.php locate:

PHP Code:


		
			
function fetch_footer()

{

    global $archive_options;

    ob_start();

    include('./' . str_replace($archive_options['forumurl'], '', $archive_options['archiveurl']) . '/footer.php');

    $footer = ob_get_contents();

    ob_end_clean();

    $footer .= '

        <p align="center">

            <br /><br />

            <font size="1" color="#999999">

                vBulletin Copyright &copy;2000 - ' . date('Y') . ',

                Jelsoft Enterprises Limited.<br />

                <b>vB Easy Archive Final</b> &copy;2000 - ' . date('Y') . '

                - Created by <a href="http://www.xenon-shacuros.de/">Stefan &quot;Xenon&quot; Kaeser</a>

                <br />

            </font>

        </p>

    </body>

    </html>    ';



    return $footer;

}

Replace with:

PHP Code:


		
			
function fetch_footer()

{

    global $archive_options,$ad_network;

    ob_start();

    include('./' . str_replace($archive_options['forumurl'], '', $archive_options['archiveurl']) . '/footer.php');

    $footer = ob_get_contents();

    ob_end_clean();

    $footer .= '

        <p align="center">

            <br /><br />

            <font size="1" color="#999999">

                vBulletin Copyright &copy;2000 - ' . date('Y') . ',

                Jelsoft Enterprises Limited.<br />

                <b>vB Easy Archive Final</b> &copy;2000 - ' . date('Y') . '

                - Created by <a href="http://www.xenon-shacuros.de/">Stefan &quot;Xenon&quot; Kaeser</a>

                <br />

            </font>

        </p>



<center>

<br />'.$ad_network.'</center>

                

                

    </body>

    </html>

    ';



    return $footer;

}

At least that's how I did it. There's more then one way to skin a cat.

Ah, fixed it myself.

Here is what to do if anyone else has problems: :)

Open the file 'forum' and replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
$threadbits .= "<li /><a href=\"$archive_options[archiveurl]/$archive_options[topicfile]/$thread[threadid]-1.html\">$thread[title]</a></li>\n";

with

PHP Code:


		
			
if (!($forumperms & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canviewthreads']))

    {

        $threadbits .= "<li />$thread[title]</li>\n";

    }

    else

    {

        $threadbits .= "<li /><a href=\"$archive_options[archiveurl]/$archive_options[topicfile]/$thread[threadid]-1.html\">$thread[title]</a></li>\n";

    }

email your hosting provider about installing mod_mime module to your apache server.

I have a question:
I got the mod, installed and running perfectly fine, I want to implement following changes.
When a user clicks on the threads in archive, it should get re-directed to the default forum threads.
How this can be acheived ?

Thanks.

Zia	02-19-2006 04:42 AM

Xenon, can you confirm this? I really liked the old 3.x hack and it worked great.

Holler!

This would be perfect if: You can grant access to all threads and forums only to google which are readable by every registered member and produce this output without images, smiles etc. Then if you follow the google link you will get redirected to a message that says something like "if you want to see this page please register", of course you could just use the normal vbulletin message. There are severeal reasons why this is helpful for some people. In my case it is mostly the fact that I want to get more active members at my board but still have the control over who reads the actual threads because it is a lot easier to just leech the threads than create one by yourself.

For phpBB I had a sitemap hack that produced just a complete list of all threads that are at the forum with the names of the threads and links included, no matter if guests could read them - that is a good alternative for me also but maybe not achievable with this hack.

Now, that would be my christmas wish :P

Ok I got another question: How can I stop the archive from giving output on "invalid thread" and "invalid forum" in the case that something was removed or moved?

Currently the path of this error messages is totally wrong although I want to simply get a 404 error if a forum or thread does not exist:

normal forum: http://foobar.com/forum
archive: http://foobar.com/forum/archive

wrong path: http://foobar.com/forum/archive/forum

Hi Everyone,

Thank you for your comments and code change suggestions...

I am trying to make this hack work with VB 3.6.x...

I applied all four changes listed above:

It was installed correctly, and I can see the archive index page fine, but receive a VB "invalid link" error when I click on forums.....

Also, I receive the "forum" dir in the URL...

Any ideas as to how this would work with VB 3.6.x?

Thanks for your suggestions....
