How Steady Is This with 3.5 Gold?

I'm a bit confused by what's happening here, I understand Andreas/Kirby will probably not have alot of time to work on this, and I see OblivionKnight has stepped in to fix some things. So will you guys be teaming up? Or is this hack going in two different directions without either acknowleding each others work?

The only reason I ask is this is the hack besides the arcade my users want the most. And a collaboration to help work on it might be better. :)

Basically, I did some custom work on vBJournal back on the 3.0.x system and nicknamed it "vBlog". I eventually planned to fully rewrite the script and release it under it's own name..

However, along came 3.5.0 and Andreas asked if I would be willing to share these additions to his port. I did so, but he hasn't got the time right now to integrate them in to his next update - so I've posted the version that I've shared with him, and it'll act as a footprint leading to his next release. There seems to be a couple of issues upgrading from Kirby's Alpha 3 release to my unofficial Alpha 4 release, however (mainly with templates).

But a fresh install of this will be ok ?

Should be.. :)

Is there anyone that has installed this Journal hack that has it up and running where they can show us a Demo of it without having to register on a site to see it. I would like to see if I like it before I install it. I have installed journal hacks before and they ended up being lame. Then after finding out you don't like it there is not uninstall program to remove the tables from the database and your either stuck with the database changes or you have to hunt and pick through the database to find the tables to remove. The journals I have installed before are usually just extentions of the forum that end up looking like a thread. I want a good indepth journal program. Is this one of those?

you can view but not have a journal :) but im sure you'll like it

In case you didn't know, u still can change the Entries Order in the original Alpha 3 build, just open journal.php and

FIND THIS
REPLACE WITH THIS
I'm pretty sure, Oblivion Knight version of this hack fixes this issues and adds some other stuff, but if u only want to change the order entries... that works since VB 3.0 :ninja:

For anyone interested, I've included a new myjournal.gif image in the zip. I'll make a small update to the templates shortly to use images instead of form buttons.

Yes, it does.. :)

Since Andreas will have increasingly less time to work on this, being a vB dev and all, I've started work on Alpha 5 (probably unofficial again). This update will fix any issues present with Alpha 4 (mostly layout stuff), and add several customisable options to the Admin CP.
