I figured out #2, Phrases (duhr).

Also, I have the same problem Drifter does, I just finally went in and added/modded the stuff in the SQL db.

#1 can't be done now via the interface but I can added that as something to be moved to a phrase. #3 is slightly more complicated in that it's at the core premise for the addon. Both are, really. Game and server.

I'd like to see that other problem in action. Can you give me temp admin access?

Editing seems to work fine. I went to the game list, hit edit, and it appeared in the textbox above with an update game button. Change the text, hit the button, and it saves with the new value. Please test to make sure that's the case for you and then you can remove the temp admin account, and thanks for trusting me with that.

It only shows one game though... shouldn't it show the entire (5 entries) list of games? How does one edit the games which aren't shown?

I'll leave the acct open in case you want to take another look... perhaps I'm just not 'getting it'?

I think there's a miscommunication. Drifter reported that he couldn't edit anything. Are you saying you added games you no longer can see?

I see the problem. Did you add those games directly into the database? You're using the free version of vbGuild which only supports one game which is why that's all you see. The hope is that you like it enough to pay $5 for a full license.

I'm having an "Oh, snap!" moment. Helps when you read all the words :)

I think it's a handy product, and you've been stellar helping me out! Look forward to future development of this -- I think being able to customize the headers would be fantastic.

Thanks. I try to be quick on the problems but development on this has been slow due to real life constraints. I'm open to all ideas. You can post them straight to the project tracker if so inclined.

Do you provide custom work? I need to tweak this slightly for my needs.

What weird timing. I was visiting the thread to see if I had missed some new post notifications and there you are.

I don't do work for hire but if it's minor I'll help; especially if you've purchased the full license. If the ideas are good then I'll also add them to the plugin.

I need to adapt it to fit tabletop role-playing; specifically D&D. Instead of a 'Guild' there are 'Adventuring Companies' and other small edits. Is this easily done?

The word "guild" is only used once in the name of the plugin that appears in the navbar, vbGuild, which is a phrase that can be changed. This was done on purpose since some are guilds, some are clans, and none of it matters to the addon. What are the other small edits?

How do I edit "Server" to "Adventuring Company"?

You can't do that but why would you? Do you have an IM client? Would be easier to talk that way. You can see my IM info in my profile here.

I'm trying to use it for a non-conventional purpose. The word 'Server' doesn't fit in the scope of my use. I am trying to apply the system for a different use.

The vbGuild addon was designed around the game/server concept but you're the second person who wants to change "server". I don't think it'd be hard to change that into a phrase although, whatever you change it into, it will be required and entered only by an admin through the admin cp.

very nice im going to have to install this on my board...should keep the punters happy :D

I haven't forgotten about the "server as phrase" request. I'll try to do it this weekend.

"Game" and "Server" are now phrases. I decided to keep this only in the full $5 version. My rationale was simple, the free version here is to see if you like the product. I just spent what little free time I had this weekend adding a cool feature that isn't necessary in a demo and most wouldn't even use. Considering the responsiveness and support I offer to everyone, I hope no one will get upset with this.

Hey Deth, any update as to the progress of the vB4 version?

Thanks!

I've been so busy I completely forgot it even has to happen. Didn't it just go gold?

Yeah it did last week.

I took a quick stab at converting it, got past the errors, but still can't get it to display anything.

So I decided to convert my GuildMate mod first since it's much less intensitive. That's going ok, but I'm having trouble getting the popup menus to work. But I'll get that going eventually. heh.

I'm sure it won't be that big a deal to convert but I don't plan to upgrade my own vBulletin licenses to vb4 which means I won't have a test environment to code against.

Awesome, then I'll leave that to you! =) This is one of those mods that I've come to rely on so getting it ported will be awesome.

Do you have a vb4 test environment I could use?

Ok, so I finally got my GuildMate add-on working correctly. Took me long enough but... as long as I retain what I learned, it was useful time spent. I need to style it up a bit more and some people might complain about me using tables instead of DIVs, but... it does what I want it to. Converting to DIVs is an exercise for another day.

As for an environment for you to use, I'll see. Right now my dev environment is using a backup copy of my DB, so all my member information is available.

Ohh, I did spend a little more time converting your mod though (Mostly, I'm trying to learn how to make these things work in vB4, I'll leave the real conversion to you), I have it displaying the data now in the userCP. It's not pretty, but it's there. heh

Hi I uninstalled this temporarily but it left the admincp menu entries. How do I maually delete these please.

many thanks

Uninstallation does not remove the physical files. You'll need to manually delete the files that you uploaded as well. The best way is to open the archive again and see what the files are, then FTP into your website and delete the same files.

awsome mod for mmorpg forums ( which is me :D ) , i installed it to my localhost everything goes nice but when i tried to add multiple game/server replacing the first one ( just accepting 1 game/server ) , also templates not working as well :( , is pro version works fine with vb4 ?

The free version only allows for one game and one server. The pro version removes that limitation. I think there are a couple other things in the pro version but really am not sure (I'm not the author).

Currently there is no VB4 version available.

The author says he plans on converting it to VB4. I took a quick stab at it and... it's not really coded as a VB mod under the hood and while I have it working on my website, it's... not good. I think it needs a lot of rewrite to make it work correctly under vB4, but... that could just be my uninformed opinion. =)

thx for letting me know :) , m8 it needs more rewrite ( or fixes or etc... ) but still the best about its category ,

Good Night

Delete the two vbguild.xml files in the includes/xml directory in your forum.

I will try to create vb4 free/pro versions within a month or so. I bet it's not that hard to do.

Crap I get this error when importing the product:

The following dependencies were not met:

1. This product is not compatible with version 4.1.22-standard of MySQL. (Compatible starting with 5.0)
2. This product is not compatible with version 4.4.8 of PHP. (Compatible starting with 5.0)

Ill see if I can get my host to upgrade.

A bit surprising that your host is that far behind.

I know right.

i want the full version...

the purchase website is down....
