Tried it :disappointed:

What was the problem?

Installed the hack, nice work.
I inserted it into my welcome panel (only visible for users), with marquee tags, so I won't take up much space. :)

I know this is an old hack, but does anybody know how you can add the forum board in the stats where the latest threads are listed. So it also shows what forum the posts the thread came from at the end of the link stats

How did you get it to display locked threads Michelle.

Also, remember it will show threads to you in hidden boards while you logged in as admin and have access to view the hidden boards. But if you log-out then login as a member who does not have access to view the hidden boards. You will not see the threads listed from that board based on permission.

But please let me know what you did to get it to show locked threads.

Will this hack work on a non VB page?

BUMP

Does does anybody know how to make this hack so it will display "Locked Threads"?

And if possible, also show the "Forum Board" threads are taken from

Hi,

I read all of the threads and this forum, but I don't think anyone is having the same problem that i am having.

I did all of the steps in the installation, checked twice and I get this error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /index.php on line 493

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/mxfimrk/public_html/Forum/index.php on line 509

I looked at the code in index.php in line 493 and this is what is trying to do:

************************************************** ********

// [START HACK='Latest Threads On Forum Home' AUTHOR='NTLDR' VERSION='1.0.0' CHANGEID= 2 ]
// #################### PROCESS LATEST THREADS #######################
// fetch the permissions for each forum
$forumperms = array();
foreach($forumcache AS $forum) {

$forumperms["$forum[forumid]"] = fetch_permissions($forum['forumid']);

// ## HIDE FORUMS WITHOUT THE CANVIEW OR CANVIEWOTHERS PERMISSION ##
if (!($forumperms["$forum[forumid]"] & CANVIEW) || !($forumperms["$forum[forumid]"] & CANVIEWOTHERS)) {
$limitfids .= ','.$forum['forumid'];
}
}

************************************************** ********

Also, I use cpanel to modify the files and I whenever I try to save the files I get the "The page cannot be displayed" error. So I tried chaning the file in my vi editor and coping and pasting to the cpanel editor and I still get that error. The second time I saved it is OK.

Had anybody experience this error or can help?

Thanks!

I am still having the problem above. It was not a parsing error ( I had just updated the file with my original index.php).


I really want this hack for my web site, so I will really appreciate if someone can help me with any information.

I did ALL of the steps specified on the hack, but I am still having this error:

I highlighted these two lines below.

Thanks!
