My host doesn't support the curl library. Do I have to use the version without Armory?

I second this. I'm looking at just using Farcaster's mod and that, if I can't get the armory version of this to work.

My host has curl, but fopen not at all. However the host's wiki indicates that fopen can be bypassed by using curl - is it possible to get a version of this mod that would do it that way, since it uses curl anyways?

But, I don't want that.

I'm asking if there's anyway to change the font with the version I want to use, because that's what I want to use on my forums.

Thanks in advance.

Not without creating a new XML parser. The xml parser built into vbulletin's class uses fopen. I would have to create a completely unique parser and I don't really want to have to do that. fopen and curl are 100% controllable in any PHP environment. Therefore, it's up to the end user to decide whether or not to change their environments and to use the addon.

I've made a great many compromises to the addon over time but this is one that I don't see changing for quite some time.

Thanks,

The fonts are changeable in vb options for this addon. If you are using a different version that doesn't have those vboptions then you need to edit the modification and change the font directly.

Thanks,

Is there a way you could make a cURL patch due to the security faults of allow_url_fopen and
allow_url_include?

There are no security faults with fopen, or vBulletin would not use it themselves as well.

Well, my host does not have fopen turned on, and I do not have the knowledge to create a custom PHP.ini file. :(

It's the only thing I can think of that would be why your mod is not working on my forums. For now I'm going with Farcaster and Event Forums (as the event forum functionality is vur vur nice for my guild) as it works 'now' and I can make several calendars to handle events like pvp, arena, heroics and RP, and have separate permissions for the raid calendar sign ups.

I might have another go at installing it, but I don't get any option to sign up once the event has been created, even after ticking 'allow users to sign up' when creating an event.. At the time it was a clean install, and yes I did double check the installation instructions - even though I had to make mah boyf alt tab out of wow so I could read them (.chm files to work on macs! I demand OS-neutral instructions. GIEF EPIXPL0XNOWOMGBB.

Ahem.

Errr, anyways >>

Mac friendly instruction File
Integration with event forums.
I get myself a new host that allows fopen. (although vb has no trouble >< Anyone remember a low cost web host? VPS and PS are beyond my means at present.)

Hi elricstorm and thank you for that mode.

I would prefer to tell you that everything is going fine on my boards but as you would expect, this is not the case.

I installed the 1.2.7 version as stated in the .chm file and I am having several issues as you can see in the attached images.

Firstly, I went to check your own boards just to have a complete view of the addon fully working (1st image) and it differs from what I have.

- despite the fact I filled the image path field differently (http://path.to/my/forums/images/wow or ./images/wow), images don't show up and when I check the path in the missing image proprieties, it keeps showing the same path : http://path.to/my/forums/
- on the profile page, there are links towards the armory for the various characters, but in my boards, there is no link (last image)

Actually, there seems not to be any link towards the armory and details such as classes, templates, etc don't appear. I have checked my host fopen paramaters and it is configured.

I am not a really advanced vBulletin coder but I tried to digg it out but I am now hopeless ;)

If you have a few minutes, I would be glad if you can read through my problems and hope to be of the best help if you need it.
