You got it men.. thanks!! :) :cool:

I only see the "Vote" button, no poll :(

Here's one of those "things that makes you go hmmmm"

Okay......the installer for vbindex adds the templates to every template set (if you have more than one) which is good if you have multiple sets for your members to select. I however, have other sets used for things like files pages and the like that are non-selectable (just using the forumdisplay template) so I didn't want these new templates added to those other sets.

The reason I am looking at this is because I installed this on my test forum to get it all ready for implementing on my active forum. I decided that I wanted to update the installer to include some custom templates I made so it would just install them too initally which isn't necessary but I wanted to make it a quick install because my forum is very busy and this would be more painless.

anyway.....while attempting to pull the code from the sql dump to add to the install script (since I don't quite understand the formatting of the data being inserted) I was having trouble with finding the same templates 4 times (multiple styles) and getting the ones I edited.

so...I decide to make copies of the templates I edited then uninstall vbindex. I edited the vbi_template_install.php to make it a remover and it removed all the vbindex templates fine.......then I proceeded to download copies of the other styles (now without the vbindex templates added) then I re-installed the vbindex (after droping the canviewvbindex table)

Okay....everything is installed correctly and now once again, all my template sets contain the vbindex templates too..........I now upload the downloaded style files and overwrite the ones that are present.

Here's the wierd part (sorry this is so long) but whuh?!...the vbindex templates are back in the template sets that weren't in the style files I downloaded

I even went so far as to search the .style files for the vbindex templates and they aren't in there but even though I overwrite the current styles....the vbindex templates are still there

I even went so far as to delete one style and then upload the downloaded style file as a new style and those darn templates are in there when I am done

any idea why it is adding in the vbindex templates to the new styles and why they remain if I overwrite a style with a style that does not contain those templates?

color me stupid but this one has got me scratching the ole noodle pretty hard

I followed the instruction
but it doesnt say anything of what you talking about
the home_newbit template there is nothing i did the auto installation and the regular one

ok ok got most of the things to work, but now again

the poll doesnt show anything, and how can i add a button at the top to go the FORUMS.?

you have to change everything in the home_poll template with the new home_poll template included in the zip file...it is in a dir called "updated templates" when you unzip it all.....that will fix the poll problem.

to add links in the main left link area you just add the html code to the home_logout template if you only want loggedin members to see the link and home_login template if you want logged out (guests) to see the link

if i not logged in, in poll i see:How fix it?

thanx for the hack bud.

Templates in the default template set appear in all template sets, if you add a test template set you will see that it has all the default templates that the other sets have.
