vb.org Archive - Miscellaneous Hacks - Rotating Banner System

Grazzie Mille Giovanni for the great help you provide.

As placing a no follow before the banners is not an option within the vbulletin mod, I tried to follow up the example given by Maru up here and place the nofollow tag manually to the XML file and reupload it and, allow overwrite on import product.

YET, when I check the file provided by Maru, it only has two occurences of nofollow, on lines 279 and 284, as here below

Code:

                $output = substr($output, 0, $npos) . "<a href=\"$bburl/rbs_banner.php?id=$rs[id]\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"$rbs_target\"><img src=\"$image\" border=\"0\" alt=\"$name\" /></a>" . substr($output, $npos + $len);

            }

            else

            {

                $url = rbs_url_sanity($rs['url']);

                $output = substr($output, 0, $npos) . "<a href=\"$url\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"$rbs_target\"><img src=\"$image\" border=\"0\" alt=\"$name\" /></a>" . substr($output, $npos + $len);

I searched the most up to date version of rbs for any nofollow, and could not find them. This means you did not adopt the nofollow hardcoded

While this is good, the option is still not there.

I would like to place nofollow before links, where should I do that in the last rbs?

I have added this request to the todo list now ;)

Upon trying to install the product, I'm getting the following error:

"Please upload the files that came with the product before installing or upgrading!

Missing files:"

I've triple-checked, all the files have been uploaded and seem to be in the correct location. Anything else I should try?

It looks like everything's installed on our server at Public_HTML/Forums, but I've tried the root folder public_html and forums with the uploads and it's still not installing, and the error message shows no missing files.

Most probably it's the file permissions. Normally, Ftp will upload with the same owner as the web server and chmod 644, but a few servers use actually a different setting. Those files then cannot read or only partially ... such as file listings are ok, but not php script execution.

Thanks for that suggestion! I went into the FTP server and changed the file permissions, but am still receiving the same error.

Here's what I've got them set to:

Tried it with the install both directly in public_html and under our forums section, which is where I believe everything else is installed.

Hope in next version, you can add the reset "counter statistic" for specific banner.

You can do this easily by using a couple of queries:

Code:

DELETE FROM rbs_hits WHERE bannerid=N;

UPDATE rbs_banners SET impressions=0, clicks=0 WHERE id=N;

where N is the banner ID you want to clean out.

When I unpacked the upgrade into a folder on the server and then moved it in to replace the admincp it changed the permissions on the folder admincp and includes to 700 and locked me out of the control panel , it was an easy fix by changing the permissions back to 755 but I have never had that happen using the same method with other plug ins and upgrades.

Now about that Flash.
I am not able to make one work proper either. I simply wanted to try it out with a flash file I found from another user.
after trying a few combinations I am able to get it to partially appear but it is not interactive nor does not scale like it would if you go directly to it.
this is a direct link to the flash http://crackercoast.com/crackerchat/banners/banner.swf
