I feel so stupid! thanks

Dont worry about it ;) Have fun

How will i know when it is done and if it's done correctly? Right now we have it as private so the members don't see it until we're ready to show it. Also the numbering of the forums concerns me. I created a new forum as per the instructions and it's not number 1

I just installed the home page hack. When i try to get to the home page i get this error. What can i do to correct this?

Database error in vbHome 2.3.0:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS total
FROM thread
WHERE forumid IN( ) AND dateline>1068609534

mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') AND dateline>1068609534' at line 3

The code it's failing on is in the index.php which is in the hack zip file. here's the code:

$newheadlines = $DB_site->query_first("
SELECT COUNT(*) AS total
FROM thread
WHERE forumid IN( $articleforum ) AND dateline>$bbuserinfo[lastvisit]
");

i'm not sure why it says line 3 because this is found on lin 45 but who cares. I think it doesn't like th ( ) value. Does anyone know what should be in $articleforum?

ronb, soz i didnt reply to ur previous thread, i wrote a huge reply telling you things and well then vb.org messed up as i sent it, so it didnt get posted, so, sorry about that. As for your mysql error that is the one i had and fixed. Go to your admin panel and choose vBulletin options then scroll down too FRONT PAGE.

Now just change most the options on that list, doesnt matter what too just mess around ( i did lol) then save the changes, Now go to the portal page, should be working now.

Lemme know ok?

What i did was clear the cache (ctrl and F5) then i got the home page. Now i need to get our boards skin and logo up top. It's a trial and error thing now.

I had a hard time posting this too. Sorry you lost all your typing. There's not much more annoying tahn that unless you include a wife that never stops yapping!

I had to..lol..

Nobody answered this - I also wonder how to do this.

I'll go one better on the question. How did they fill out that page? I have no templates filled out on top and nothing in the middle. What do i need to do to get that to work. Also i'd like to have the skin and logo from the board on this home page too.

Im not even sure that it is a vbhome portal. Also note at the bottom near the copyright it says

Powered by: vBulletin Version 3.18 Alpha

Which isnt even out yet :s

I need a little help with the set up of the home page. I'm not all fluent with php so be kind to me! lol here's what the home page looks like now. http://www.sculptedbyiron.com/index.php

As ypu can see it's not at all complete. Id like to get our logo up top if possible. Also why are all the 'X' boxes up top. i'd like to change the skin to something more readible and fill in the center if the page.


What do i need to change and to what. As you can see i'm a bit lost. I'll admit it!
