djr:

Should I create this temp folder and put it in my site set to 777?

Should this temp folder be located in my root as www/site/images/temp

or

www.site/forums/images/temp?

Thanks for your reply, I am relaly looking forward to having this hack.

Jared,

We've set it up like this:

/forums/images/tmp

where tmp is chmod 777

In other words: the tmp dir is a directory under your forum's images folder.

Good luck!

p.s. What kind of forum you got?

We ahve a PAlm OS developers support site for developers using PDA Toolbox as a development tool. Great group of people and thankfully a very successful site and rapdily gaining a name for it self. We are one of the few "software distributors" who have ever gotten free advertising out of Palmgear (I think) but then we are an affiliate.

Here is the URL if you wnat ot check it out. http://www.pdatnutsandbolts.com

Some times it is referedd to as PDATN&B sometimes simply "The Nuts&Bolts"

It is only the end of our first year (6/22) and as you can imagine some part of the site is under construction all the time. 350 pages worth. But it is getting there...where ever there is ;)

Stop by and have a look around if you like.

Thanks for your help...wish I had known about this site a year ago...but then I would have had no clue what to do with it ;)

I registered at your board and am awaiting confirmation :-)

I'm the president of the Dutch Palm User Group, but let's not be off-topic and do further chit-chat on your board.

I got the hack installed and not kicking out out of the server. However all I am getting in the doc is the thread ID and the copy right notice no thread content.

I noticed that after I did the convert no new file is in the tmp folder. Should there be?

should the palm.lib files have this in the line:

"forums/images/tmp"?

I believe right now it is

"images/tmp"

I guess the problem is that the hack is creating invalid characters in the title. Did you have that problems?

I come up with a title that looks like "[] [] []_ _ _ _ _ _ _"

BTW thanks for stopping buy our forum...hope you'll keep coming back.

I stopped by yours but I can't read it ...bummer.

I've attached a copy of the palmthread file I have uplaoded to server. Maybe you can see something wrong with the code. If anything?

Maybe the palm.lib file is not CHMOD right? Should it have a particular setting?

Jared,

I'm not at my own PC right now,m but when I get home i'll post my files here with full instructions.
The hack is not really difficult, but it's probably not really updated for vB 2.2.x.

Thanks I appreciate you taking the time to help me out.

Like I said I think it might actually be a problem with the palm.lib. I get the tempalet header and footer but none of the stuff the palm lib is supposed to convert.

Does this need to be CHMOD to work...thought about trying that but figured I might as well wait.

Will this work in 2.2.9?
