hmm, please check the code changes, in the readmefirst file...
the script it's working fine, take your time to install all the steps properly.

refertech, the mysql error you get is because you probably tried to uninstall twice.
also, you forgot to set the root path, onto your new vbHL index file, that's the error on line 12. :)

guyssssssss, i'm going to be upset at you. i know you get excited and rush things because you want to try it out and you think everything is ok... but please, relax smoke a cigarette (or whatever you enjoy) then look at the code and analize carefully every step on the readme file.

then you will see that everything is working great. :)
promise me you dont rush it anymore, ok? thanks.

check your code, you made a mistake. there nothing wrong with v3.4

k, removed the first poll from 'news' forum, started a new one, ran vbhlindex.php. Same error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_bbarraycookie() in /home2/www/bushwhacked/index2.php on line 134

Where is it getting 'home2' from?

Teck-

Wait for upgrade script? Or if we use the new version, we have to run the new vbhlinstall.php and upload the new index.php? I'm a little confused as to how to upgrade.

is because it's still looking for the cookie. please understand i didnt touch at all the poll code, only the "article" one where it's added the avatar.

clear your cookies and temp files, then let me know.

no change

is your full server path, i hope you set it in the vbHL index.php file.
something like: /server/home2/www/bushwhacked/forum

in the readmefile it's telling you how to get it. did you read it??

How do I do a full uninstall exactly? I set it all up on my forum2 which I use for testing but I wanna run it on my proper forum now as its so good,and as my forums both run on the same host I gotta get it off the test board :] if that makes any sense :P

Wij

I know what it is, and the path set in the index file is this, which is correct.

chdir("/www/bushwhacked/forum");

At this point please trust that I've done everything according to the readme file. I've read it enough over the last three days to almost know it by heart. Remember that I've had everything working in 3.2 and 3.3 except for the poll.

wij, no need to uninstall. just change the options.. take you time to read the readmefile. is all explained there.

k dood,cheers for that :]

regards

Wij

wij, what version you have installed? 3.4?

Forgot to add, 3.4 does work fine.... UNTIL the poll is enabled.

Thanks dude :)

Hey Teck, just wanted to say outstanding job you have done so far !!

canyou explain the purpose of the Journalist group?

I guess i am confused...

JOURNALISTS GROUP
Enter here the usergroup ID value you generated in step 9. vBulletin uses 2 types of avatar groups, default and custom
(user uploaded). 99.99% of the cases, the default group is not used.
vbHome (lite) will use this group to store your journalists pictures or avatars.

The way are set the code changes, it will enable this default group of avatars to be viewed only by administrators and members who belong onto Journalists group. So if you have avatars enabled on your site, a normal user who wants to add his(her) avatar will not see the images.

I guess this is to show pics that show up in there posts or what

just for all of you that say it's not working. i did an v 3.4 install on my site, to have a live demo:
http://www.teckwizards.com/home.php

people who will be able to see the journalists avatars (that you upload, their pictures for example), to select theirs to be displayed, when they post...

Oh ok.. i mis understood it

So admins automatically have access correct?

btw....

i was able to install 3.4 w/ no problem

and those getting the error when they try making a new post. (sql error) Re read the instructions..

the key word was

PASTE BELOW

not REPLACE

ya :)

hmm not workin here for me


:o\

anyone else got any input?

not working what bouncer?

not showing my avatar on main page when i post

i'm sure you forgot to set the full url, instead on the standard one, like the way it adds vBulletin.
always use: http://mysite/forum/images/avatars/pic.gif

instead of: images/avatars/pic.gif

is the same story like smilies, images, etc.

hmm ok

where was i suppose to put the url of my avatar?

i didnt see an option to do so.

I thought it automatically used my custom avatar.. ahh hell, i guess i fooked something else up again

Avatars > Add
no. it does not.. that's why you have to set it as default.
i didnt included the custom avatars because i wanted to save a JOIN table and reduce the stress on the server.

also since the default group of avatars is being seen only by admins and journalists, there is no way that other members can use yours.

follow the instructions on your readme file. add your avatar through admin cp panel the way you do it normally.

i also did it this way for security. let's see a journalist get pissed and he uploads a big finger, or porn as his default image. it will show on the main page. that will not happen, since only you can upload journalist avatars to your site. is well thought all.

hmm this steo isnt in the readme..

maybe it should be added?

I used Admin CP and uploaded the image next to my other 50 or so...

same result. Not showing

If I copy the 'latest poll' section from the 3.3 index.php to the 3.4 index.php, I stop getting the error. But it still doesn't pull the poll from the 'news' forum, it continues to pull a non-poll thread, from another forum, from a user that does not have the poll permission as set in the vbhl options.

oh hell

i found my problem i think Teck....

in the admin cp under your new section

i have everything set to yes
YET
ads, advertisements and search are NOT there

just polls and private message

uhm i am fooked again aren't i?

guys, you always forget a thing, to clean your browser cache before you download a file here at vb.org. and you wonder why you get all kind of errors.

every time i did an install for someone for vbHome, it worked perfectly everything.

mine was clean.. made sure of it.
and i know i have version 3.4 even says so at the bottom of the screen.

:( :(

then you should have all options.
open vbhlinstall.php with your editor and look at line 606 and below, to see all options there that are added.

it might say 3.4 on the home page because is in the file. if you uploaded an old installer with a new vbHL index file it will still show 3.4 on the home page but the options will not be installed.

it added them
i see the new home_ template(s)
i see the new options in user cp

but when i click YES or NO nothing changes..

possible error in my DB or what is your impression?

i'm busy now.. in few hours i will be free, and help you install it bouncer.
then you will see that everything works perfectly. stay arround and add me to your messenger.

nakkid@msnDOTcom

note: only people that i tell them to add me, i will add them also, the rest will be automatically blocked.

bouncer18cs@hotmailDOTcomis my SN i guess lol


anyways, it HAS to be in my SQL DB i guess...

cause all the new options are they, but none of the YES/NO are working..

Except PM and POLL..

if ya get time, can you make an UNINSTALLER for the SQL entries only and an Installer for them only.

i am 98% sure this is my problem..

yet i see all the new stuff....
Journalists Usergroup
'Enable Avatar in article

etc..
