ok, first thing...could you guys elaborate on this error in the install script? i just kind of threw the install script together... which templates, if any, get installed, and which don't?

second, vampireman - check your vB options in the admin cp and make sure there's a "Links to show per page" option. if there is, go to http://your.forums/admin/setting.php and make sure the variable name for that option is linksperpage. if there is not, try adding that setting (you might have missed it since the install script didn't work properly).

please get back to me on these things, and i will fix them.

smoothie - no, they show on their own page

none of the template content gets installed , i checked all of them.
it only installed empty templates :-(

just trying the thing again

ok , i checked the settings, they seem ok ,it worked when i altered the setting , one of those wierd things i suppose.

Now it's working 100% on my dev site. Brilliant hack works better than i expected!!!

The templates names are installed but not the contents. Can you please fix that?

Nope, the templates' content is not filled.

That zip worked 1st time for me on my live site.

Can use my site for live demo if you like.

nicksaunders, could you maybe make a file witht he template contents so I can do it manually?

there's an upgrade script that'll fix it all for you. hopefully. :) if it doesn't work, i will gladly provide the templates in text files.

anyway, check the admin folder of the zip.

thanks, i'll put that in my post. also thought i'd point out that the psd for that new link button is included if you want to customize it to match your other colors.

will be having a go at that for my dev site , dev goes live in less than 5 days ... YAY. Just added a text link to it using vbportal at the moment :-)
