BTW, does anyone have any suggestions for vBstory? anything you would like to see added?

mmm, I'm personally very interested in the forumhome bits.

Some suggestions :

- Think was talked about before. Other users cannot enter a story when a user is currently entering a story. Since some users are really writers and can write to one hours worth.

- bits such as "links to New chapters since your last visit" would be really good as well :)

Thats about all to this wonderful hack.

oh and my vbstory link: http://sgstudents.com/forum/vbstory.php

Both the ideas you have suggested are good, however i'm not too sure how to do them. The first would be a total pain to do, unless I set it up so that a user can mark it as "being worked on" - the only problem with this is that the user might never come back... I guess this could be done, but i'd need some external help.

As for the second, I might be able to do this, but i'm thinking it would be very resouce intensive......

What I am going to add is the ability for you to bookmark a chapter, allowing you to access it again from the forumhome and vbstory welcome page.

I'm also going to set it up so that admins get an email when a story is suggested, and when a new chapter is added (although I don't know how to access admins emails yet, i'll working something out.

although at this stage i'd like to point out this won't be for a couple of weeks, i've got some more important projects to work on first (after all, I need to earn a living :))

The admin ideas are a must. :)

Definitely need an email or PM whenever a Story is Suggested. Email notifications to people subscribed to the story would be nice. Also, need to see the actual chapter in the adminCP as well as the stuff that we already see. ;)

As for the furst suggestion, What my users are doing now is they key in some sort of placeholder to ensure that that chapter is theirs first. *lol*

Thats a good idea, going in, typing something like "Bugger off, this is my chapter" and then editing it later once they have finished - very good idea - maybe I can use something like that as a feature - I really need to spend some more time thinking about how it's going to work.

I fixed the online.php. Your install instructions is missing some vital code. All pages require 2 entries in online.php: [where] and [activity].

Your's is missing the [where] function:

Code:

case 'vbstory':

      $userinfo[where] = "Reading an Interactive <a href='vbstory.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'>Story</a>";

      break;

Added it for John's arcade hack and the toplist hack and it works nicely. :)

eeeerrrrmmmm, I don't know which file you have got, but the zip file on the first post does have both of the file edits needed for online.php, here:

But thank you anyway :D

Ok, I am a bit lost. I have my story but nothing is showing up??
http://20ishparents.com/boards/vbstory.php?s=

Like where the members can add to the story ect.
Otherwise it was a great install.

Have you added all the templates? That is the only thing I think the problem could be.
