Awesome! I used this to make a new homepage for my website, very easy. Are we able to use <if condition="$..."> and stuff like that?

Someone else had this problem with 1.6 and said they fixed it by resolving some conflict. What conflict would be causing this?

Give me a day or so to do a lil research into the problems from the old product andf i will get back to you

Great Hack!

One question: I want to display just a certain number of characters from the post on my news page... how?

To Inferno Tech,

Installed ;) and could you integrate the Search Form too ? like this one :

Code:

<form action="forum/search.php" method="post">

        <input type="hidden" name="forumchoice[]" value="23" />

        <input type="hidden" name="do" value="process" />

        <input type="hidden" name="showposts" value="0" />

        <input type="hidden" name="quicksearch" value="1" />

        <input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />

        <input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="20"/>&nbsp;$gobutton<br />

</form>

* <input type="hidden" name="forumchoice[]" value="23" /> = Forum ID.

I will look at doing this for the pro version or maybe the lite, it depends on a few things.

@Harry 5: within vBExternal.php it is referenced all over in each function.

Thanks in advance :rolleyes:

Thinking about buying pro version, just hope there will be a discount for people who have rpg and shoutbox and for it to be a bargain ^^

however, im having problems using it right now.

this is the error that is coming up on my homepage which im trying to put the users online on.

Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/*******/public_html/right.php on line 176

on line 176 i have this
<?php
output_UsersOnline();
?>

I have included

<?php
chdir('./forums');
require_once('./vBExternal.php');
?>

at the top of the php file as well.

Any ideas what is wrong?

Edit again: i removed the users online, and checked to see if the code at the top was working, it was not,
I changed the code at the top of the page to:

Code:

<?php

require_once('http://www.gamerzneeds.net/forums/vBExternal.php');

?>

, now that works.

then put the code back in for online users to show up, and get this error

Code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: output_usersonline() in /home/******/public_html/right.php on line 174

line 174 is: output_UsersOnline();

Any ideas whats wrong?

Edit again:
decided to keep trying to modify it, to see if i could get it working, and came up with a different error this time

Code:

Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/***********/public_html/right.php on line 2



Warning: main(./vBExternal.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/*****/public_html/right.php on line 3



Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required './vBExternal.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/*******/public_html/right.php on line 3

I changed the code at the top of the page to:

Code:

<?php

chdir('http://www.gamerzneeds.net/forums');

require_once('./vBExternal.php');

?>

Edit again:
Changed the top to:

Code:

<?php

chdir('forums/');

require_once('vBExternal.php');

chdir('../');

?>

and im now getting this error:

Code:

There was an error while processing vBExternal:

System was unable to find the template 'vBExternal/users_online.html'

I edited vbexternal.php and changed where the template is found to:
$template = "http://www.gamerzneeds.net/forums/vBExternal/{$template}";

I then get this error:

Code:

There was an error while processing vBExternal:

System was unable to find the template 'http://www.gamerzneeds.net/forums/vBExternal/users_online.html'

I then go to http://www.gamerzneeds.net/forums/vB...rs_online.html to check it is a page, and it is, so whats wrong, it should be able to find it.

I have tried everything i can think of, will have to put back my old code, until you can help me solve this.

Thanks.

Final Edit:

I finally had the idea to do this and change the code to:

Code:

<?php

chdir('./forums');

output_UsersOnline();

chdir('../');

?>

and now everything works.

I just now need to work out how to display it, so it looks nicer, more integrated into my homepage, and more like a vbulletin way of displaying it, if anyone could help, id like to display it in my footer here www.gamerzneeds.net

I would also like to have the links vbseo links otherwise i will have duplicate content.

Thanks.

Ive also got it working on a different domain, but now ive been trying to get it to use vbseo url's ive included

Code:

## VBSEO SETTINGS  #####################################################

include_once "forums/includes/functions_vbseo.php"; // change this path to reflect where your forum is

vbseo_startup(); // if you have a vbSEO version under 3, comment this line and uncomment the next three

// vbseo_get_options();

// vbseo_prepare_seo_replace();

// get_forum_info();

not sure which files it should be included in, but i tried them all.

I then tried editing the threadid part, and got lost again lol.

anyway, i know its simple, and ill most likely get it when im not so tired.

I just now need to learn how to make it look good and fit the layout better, because i appear to be hopeless at design. any tips would be appreciated.

thanks.

Great idea. I've been looking for something like this. I'll give it a crack.

vBEXternal was never intended to be used with vbSEO but i may and try to add it in for the Pro release, but there are no promises.
