There is no automatic uninstall, but here's how to:


1. Go to Manage Hacks -> Hack Tracking Log -> Run Install Sequence -> Run VERBOSE TEST installation -> continue to the File Modifications step. Now keep this page open in a separate window until step 8!
2. remove the three templates
3. run in debug mode
4. go to Manage Hacks
5. go to the Controls drop-down for the Hack Tracking Log, choose Remove Phrases
6. Confirm to remove all HTL phrases
7. drop the tables `hack` and `hacklog`
8. remove the file modifications (from the browser window from step 1)
9. remove all HTL files (see first post)


That would uninstall it :)

Invalid SQL: ALTER TABLE vb3_language ADD phrasegroup_hacklog MEDIUMTEXT NOT NULL
mysql error: Duplicate column name 'phrasegroup_hacklog'

--edit--

deleted in phpmyadmin the phrasegroup_hacklog and now it installs. :)

Ah, of course...

There we go :)

Thanks allot for this hack installing as we speak ;)

Hey, good to see another dutchie! *waves to MaceNL* :)

i was hoping to use this for my shoutbox, but i can't
you can only add one phrase type, i need one for the admin cp script i made to :(

still, this is a very good and useful hack, thanks for releasing it

You can add multiple phrasetypes if you wish, in several ways:

- make your admin-end a separate hack (kinda lame but it works fine);
- use the Custom PHP Code section to make a custom mini-script that inserts phrases into your admin cp (or perhaps moves them after they have been inserted into the front-end group);

However, keep in mind that a hack that uses its own phrases gets its own language table column, and too many of those will eventually start slowing down page loads (not for a while yet, though). A good solution is to just merge both phrase groups into one for your hack, unless they are both really huge. For the HTL itself, for instance, the front-end uses like, what, 15 phrases? Those just went into the hacklog phrasegroup along with the 240~245 admin-end phrases. :)

it would be great if someone can make uninstaller scrpit because i installed it on friends board and it seems like twlight zone its not not installed.
first it went to step 5 and my browser crashed nothing to do with the hack but now i try reinstalling it it only goes to step 2 next step i dont seei tried deleting the hack, hacklog and 'phrasegroup_hacklog'tables through phpMyAdmin but still no joy.
can someone help me get me out of this problem

If you went to step 5, you could've just started to use the HTL without a problem and then just use the admin-end to do the last step...

Trying your own uninstall stuff will undoubtedly have made matters much more complicated.

If you want, you can create an admin account for me (with sql rights) on your site so that I could check some things and fix your setup and install the HTL for you. If you prefer not giving me access, you'll have to PM me and then we'll try to resolve this in private :)

pm sent with access info many thanks
