hmm so NO questions about this ?

I am attempting to d/l the zip file, but it is corrupted. Is this on my end?

Yeah you do that man. And I thought the Final version will be released by the end of 2006? :p

He still has 6 months till the end of 2006. :p

Whoops I was going to say 2005 but whatever.

Knight, this is the greatest hack ever, believe me when I say that. I just can't wait to get my hands on the final version. Everyone has been waiting for months now so I think it's the time to work on it, ya?

It's not my release.. I just contributed toward the layout and added a couple of features. ;)


You and me both.!

I kinda gave up and figured I'd wait for An-net's "official" vBJournal 3.5.x release.

I have it running with 3.5.4.

Cool site! Did you have any trouble installing it or running it? Did you need to tweak it?

I seem to have a small problem with the journal mod.

It was working fine a week or so ago. Then we moved servers on a dedicated box. After that it stopped working as expected. I get an error:

The only thing I can think of that changed was the encoding on mysql and the fact that we are using now MySQL 4.1 and PHP 5.

I looked in the code and it seems to be the line where you post what mood you are in. I managed to remove that line from one or two of the templates but on the others it still happens....

Has anyone seen this before? If not I can report it as a bug.

@dimopoulos:

What template is being pulled in on line 1593.

open that template and show me line 61 and i can show you how to fix it..

We had to fix a couple of them when we went to php5 and mysql 5

If you get errors.. Ask me

do you use 3.5.4 gibhut?

if you do how did you get it to save the Administrator Permissions for the Journal? thats my problem with it, it wont save the setting to yes so I can adminster it

Running php 5.1.2 MySQL 4.1.18-standard

(Calling journal index from navbar)

Line 188 of journal.php:
(Calling my journal from navbar)

Line 48 of journal.php:

Firstly, this is my first post and install, it exactly what i was looking for!

I have installed and it all looks fine, but how do i allow users to edit thier journals, i have logged in under a normal user and cannot access the journals section, i dont have the right permissions, how do i allow users and my admistrstor acount to add journal entries - as you can tell i am new to vbulletin!

Also is thier a way to change all referneced to "Journal" to "Blog"?

Any help would be great. E-Mail me @ info@afhwebsitedesign.co.uk if you can help.

Go into each user group from your admincp and you'll see the journal section where you can choose what you like for each.

Why doesn't journal.php work?

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PRIVATE, expecting ']' in /home/admin/public_html/journal.php(564) : eval()'d code on line 188

I get that!

Are you using php5 too?

ok quick explain ,
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PRIVATE, expecting ']' in /home/mysite/public_html/forums/journal.php(564) : eval()'d code on line 188

means line 564 of journal.php is calling a template.. on line 188 of that template is where the error is..

so tulsa look on line 564 of journal and tell me the template it is calling

and same goes for your Craigex

Can somebody share a live demo of this please.

Also, last update on this hack was on 17. Nov 2005. Is this correct?
Is this still up-to-date?

Yes this hack should still be working with the latest versions of vBulletin, best way to find out is to install it and find out.

Line 564 of the journal.php does not look like it's calling for a template to me.

However I was able to find what was that error on line 188 of the journal template. Removing one of the </if>'s caused it to save just fine. Not sure if it's going to work but vbulletin seemed to like it better. This was the line in the journal template.


So I'm down to that last error and it's located in the journal_journalpage template. It's line 48 and I can't find what's wrong with this one.

Has anyone else here upgraded to internet explorer 7 beta?

I did this and all the journal entries now get underlined when a mouse is hovered over them ... kinda weird.

Change $journalinfo[private] to $journalinfo['private'] and $bbuserinfo[private] to $bbuserinfo['private'] That should fix it

Unfortunately that change did not fix it. :confused:

Uninstalling. The white screen won't go away, and by the ninth test post, it gets frustrating. :tired:

I think I have it?? If you remove the " " from $bbuserinfo[private]==1 (journal.php) and from $journalinfo[private]==1 (journal_journalpage) they save in vbulletin. Now I've not run them through tests yet but they did pass the vbulletin check on them and seem to be working on my site. Under php5.

when i post a journel entry it shows up but my message is gone, when i click edit there is no message even though i typed on in.

How can i fix it ?

You can do what I did. It's not a fix, it's a band-aid for making this work with php5 at least for my site.

im sorry for not looking through all 83 pages but i need help. i thought i did everything as instructed but when i click on journals off my forum page it directs me to a webpage and say it cant locate the page. what i do wrong? www.myridespace.net, try it and u will see what i mean, thanks for any help you can give

Did you upload the journal.php file to your forums root directory? That's what it can't find.

alright now it says i dont have permission, now what?

You have to go into each of the usergroups in your admincp and give them all access as you see fit.

i have changed somethings, but i dont see nething that is related to the journals, any ideas?

This is what you should see in each of your usergroups.

ok so i dont have that, so what i screw up?

i am still trying to get the hang of uploading the files, can u go over where everything needs to be uploaded, i think that where i went wrong

The only thing I can suggest to you is start over, and follow the instructions very closely.

In the zip file, the journal.php goes into your root directory

The journaladmin.php goes in your forums/admincp directory

The bitfield_journalhack.xml and the cpnav_journalhack.xml go in your forums/includes/xml directory

The image files upload to the same image named directory as they are stored in the zip file.

tulsa, thanks for the late nite help, it works now, i uploaded incorrectly, thanks agian
