That's what confused me. Not sure what code I place there, so I put the code from the index.php of my forums.

I did put that exact url instead of images and some of the images on my boards had broken links showing up.

you cannot add the hole forums index.php. only parts of it.
on the first post there is a little tutorial on how to add extra code. follow the steps there.

all the best,
nakkid.

For someone who is new to this, how can I know what parts I'm supposed to add?

I'm sorry for all these questions, don't mean to waste anyone's time. :(

That will be kinda hard for you, MomofThree. This hack is not kinda newby friendly, it wont work just like 2+2=4.

thanks a lot nakkid...that did the trick.

Great hacks, keep em' comin!!

Yeah I'm noticing that. :(

But I'm not going to give up either! :)

Ok I put this code in only in the vb home index.php file:


[vB code]
eval("\$homepminfo = \"".gettemplate('home_pmloggedin')."\";");

} else {
$pminfo='';
}

and now I get this error: Parse error: parse error in /home/www/theparentclub/index.php on line 51


Should I be calling the following url?: http://www.theparentclub.com/index.php ???

Looks nice, but I can't make up my mind of installing this one or Vbindex...they both look so similar..

I saw the screenshots of Vbhome, but does anyone actually have a live demo? (as in a forum running Vbhome?) Thanks ;)

no. i dont have a live site. why would you need it? is the same like in the picture.
the difference between vbHome and vbIndex is the queries. if you like to have 100queries on your main page and kill your server, install vbIndex. over 40queries is really high the server load. element copied part of my code.

vbHome Lite 1.0 was bad. had queries on the loop that were getting multiplied. the more threads and news you had, the more queries you ended up with.

so with PPN's help i got the latest threads re-writen and also grabbed directly from the post table the actual message in the database, for the news goodies. is small and fast and it doesnt clutter your page with noend queries.

Iliana, please notice on the PM addon the way i mentioned the [high]VB Code[/high]? if you look at that area of code, you will see that there is some extra code.
due to jelsoft copyright, i'm not allowed to show the code so i replace it with the pharantesis...
i really cant do more then this. if you are not sure, please wait for your husband. i'm sorry i could not help more.
what i can do, just to give you an example is to send you through PM an example of pm code so you understand the mechanism.
let me know if that's ok with you.

woolf, this hack is for everyone. maybe you guys should help the lady. i know i will as much as the time allow me. she is nice and all she wants is to get some help.

think of you when you started and if someone would tell you that:
[high]hey, that's not for you... ur too newbie to fit here...[/high]

i know that's not what you ment woolf, but that's what it sounds like.. :)
now let's be nice all of us (especially me, who i had attitude probs before - that i want to correct and earn again everyone's respect) and help Iliana.
