yo, w?re ne idee, kommt drauf an wie gro? the is ;)

aber wie gesagt zweit ist knapp derzeit also erwarte nichts zu schnelles ;)

Ne Du ich kann das schon verstehen und will Dich ja auch ned drängen. Ok dann packe ich einfach mal die ersten 50 im archiv zusammen, da dazwischen schon genug ned geht. Wie soll ichs Dir schicken?

wie gro? isses?
wenns klein genug ist hier ?ber pm, ansonsten per mail ;)

Will this archive Sticky threads, because I wouldn't like it to...

yes it'll also archive sticky threads...
easiest way: move em to another forum, than convert the threads to archives and then move the stickies back ;)

Where's 3.00? The one I downloaded says "Hack Version: 2.00".

Also do we need to archive a thread before the forum is shown?

Danke schon

it is version 3.00 i just forgot to change the version number of the installfile too ;)

and yes, you need to convert a thread before the forum the thread was in will be shown on the archiv pages :)

lol Thanks!

I'll play around with it =)

The install_archiv.php isn't working at all when I install it. Just gives me a blank page.

sure you've uploaded it correct into the right directory?

it belongs into the admin folder.

because of you're the only one with ths error, you must have made something wrong, the file is ok.

Hi Xenon

I'm getting this error when i try to convert a thread

Invalid SQL: SELECT forumid FROM archive_forums WHERE title='Introductions'
mysql error: Table '********_forum.archive_forums' doesn't exist

Please help me!

Thanks

have you run the installscript correctly while upgrading?

While upgrading?

I'm installing it for the first time - I think I might have gone wrong somewhere.

oh, have had a look at it and you're right.

that's why it's 3.00 RC, there was a bug in install_script.

ulpoaded a new one...

geniuscrew: run the old install_script again and choose upgrade from version 2.00 that should solve the problems

OMG! Das Klappt wunderbar!

Danke!

:)

glad to hear that :)

Just a teeny weeny problem :)

I archived one thread to test it - that worked fine. It showed the forum it was in and the thread.

But then I mass-archived threads which hadn't been replied to for over 50 days.

They all went to the same forum as the thread archived first - so do you have to archive forums separately?

And a little request :) - I'd like to know when each thread was archived if it that's possible

Thanks for your help Xenon!

hmm, normally if those threads were in different forums, then they should also appear in different forums in your archive.

i've just rechecked the code and it is correct....

If the threads were in different forums, the names of these forums must be unique, the hack groups archives by forumnames.


but i'll redo a greater test run today evening, perhaps i'll find a bug ;)

geniuscrew you help me very good with finding bugs ;)

the archives are created correctly i their specific forums, but, the showarchiv.php was a bit buggy.

upload the new one then it should work :)

No problem Xenon!

Anyhow I prefer to archive the forums separately, just so I don't archive the Admin forum too ;)

Unless you can change it so we can manually pick what forums to archive and what to exclude [perhaps check boxes?] - just a suggestion :)

Thanks for your help m8!

well would take a while to code...

but as long as you can archive forums seperatly by the choose it musn't be too fast ;)

but, you can also convert your adminforums, that's why i included a permission system ;)

Es ist ein bisschen verwirrend :p

What exactly are the permissions for/how do u use them? I think I misinterpreted their use lol

I feel dumb ;)

the permissions are there, so you can disallow users to view special archiv forums.

so you can easily convert adminforums, too, if you have set up the right permissions to just be viewable to admins ;)

Ahh i thought so

Thanks a lot Xenon for your help - and a wonderful hack!

Thanks :)

You're welcome

Okay, this may seem like a dumb question, but I'm installing a hack for the first time...

What does step 4 mean?? (Make a link to showarchiv.php where you want to have it)

I just don't want to mess up my board totally...any help is appreciated!

you have to edit a template and add a link to showarchiv somewhere.

i had put it into the header template, but it's up to you where in the templates you put a link

Oh, okay... is this for the public to see the "show archiv" feature or for me?

well, if you want the public to view the archives then you should add this link to show it to them ;)

Good hack!
Thank

hi.
great hack, but i have one problem - when i give permissions for more than 1 gruop, all category dissapeared from the main archiv page, and only "All Archivs" left (with "0" topics).
If you have fix for that in this topic, please give me link

thanx and sorry for my english

Good Luck

Once you've set up at least one permission, you have to set up the permissions for all groups in this forum, so recheck if you have enabled acces for administratorgroup also ;)

Ok... when i UNcheck all boxes in permission i CAN see all categories BUT can`t go in... then when i CHECK all boxes i can see ONLY "All Archives" category... all other dissapeared BUT i CAN go in... :surprised: and why you made that options if it works like "if for one - so HAVE TO for all"??? I want show archiv ONLY for regesterd users (users, mods, admins, etc.), NOT for UNregestered & Awaiting Email Confirmation or Users Awaiting Moderation...

thanx

and also, how can i add link for archive in $forumjump under:
...Search
Main
>>> Archiv <<<

???

thanx

you have to edit your forumjump-template
and after that you have to edit forumdisplay.php the first part of the file where the forumjump redirects are..

the permissionsystem, was just an addon to the original hack, to allow Admins to also Archive private forums and don't let the wrong users inside. that's why it uses that behaviour.

but normally it should work, as i've tested it.
Nevertheless it's a RC, so i'll look into the code again :)

okay, thanx a lot! i test it on local host before publish in the Net...

Good hack! But one minus - it is impossible to remove forum from archive after removing all threads in it... I have to use phpMyAdmin for it.
Or it is my mistake?

Thx, seems i've forgotten this :)

Upload the new Archiv.php and showarchiv.php and this shouldn't happen anymore

Quick question do I create a forum and move the threads there first then covert them into the archived threads?

How to I convert them into archived posts?

no, you don't have to create a new forum and move threads there first, you can just archive them frome wherever they are (use the mask or the direkt threadid)
