ok, I have a question~ I was curious, how can I make it (modify this hack) so that lets say a user is at /chatmain.php? -which is a session hash I believe, how can I make this hack recognzie such a thing IE any url past the &s and strip it. SO that way, if I put "chatmain.php" as the site I'm trying to remove "Unknown Location" from, it will find chatmain.php&s=blahblahblah and remove the &s and everything past it?

Just curious, this has been bothering me for quite some time...

I'm also using vBPortal and the trouble I'm having is that I can get /download.php to work but it will not go to the actual location

/download.php?op=viewdownloaddetails&lid=2&ttitle=D iettalk.com_screensaver_1024x7 68

but it will only show /download.php

fyi.. I get the same thing with the "glossary".. it will only show glossary.php instead of the full location... so I doubt it's a "vBPortal" issue.

I figured out the issue with locations in "glossary.php" and for vBPortal's sections.php, links.php, ect.

Filename: sections.php

Description: Viewing <a href="$userinfo[location]">Articles</a>

"modules" for vBPortal are still not working though and I would like to replace "Article" with a variable for the page title ($title does not work).

a problem I'm having is that I want it to go into a child directory, I'd like that to work.

right now I have www.warpstorm.com/forums/

and want it to link to the main page (www.warpstorm.com) and our Oracle (www.warpstorm.com/oracle/index.php)

is it ever possible to include child forums?

If you have installed this hack.. just use...

filename: links.php

Description:
Viewing <a href="$userinfo[location]">Web Links</a>

But anything with a module, will not work at the moment.

can you elaborate on that, Im also using vbportal and would like to get the links.php and downloads.php to be found. I tried /links.php but it still is seen as an unknown location.

I also tried including the global.php in links.php but Im getting "function stripslashes cant be redefined".

mmh, maybe Im just too stupid ;)

Good hack!
I installed it!

Is there anyway to get it to recognize any sub directories of a domain?

So that no matter what sub directory under www.paintballcity.com (example: www.paintballcity.com/1/ and www.paintballcity.com/2/) it still says "Paintball City Homepage"?

Thanks.

Hey Chen, do you know when you're going to make this hack golden?

"Right about now..."

[high]* FireFly dances ;)[/high]

I installed this hack in about 2 minutes, and I haven't had a single problem. It works for files above my forums folder too, such as the vBPortal files.

chen, you might wanna post the instructions to have a link in the admin cp to this :), been usin this for awhile, love the hack

ran into a problem. with 2.2.5

Parse error: parse error in /home/virtual/site20/fst/var/www/html/forums/admin/admin_online.php on line 85

I agree, when I tried to drop it into the actual admin system with:

makenavoption("Who's Online Admin", "admin-online.php", "<br/>");

It coughed (404 error)... Why is this? *L*

Ergh, aright, got that fixed, now the Who's Online doesn't work.

I get a parse error @ line 45 which is function show($userinfo) { *L*

Okay... My day for problems :)

I've now fixed that, but when I added shoutbox.php as a location, it hasn't changed anything in the online.php page :(

any plans to update this hack to work with 2.2.6?

Or will it work as-is?

ladyfyre, i have 2.2.6 and this hack well work.

Excellent hack FireFly!!

Working great on 2.2.6. Also, I haven't read all this thread [just the first page] so maybe this has also been mentioned. To add admin_online.php to your CP edit admin/index.php and replace...

...with...

Sorted. :)

Stop following me!!

Following you?! :o

Great Work FireFly, work like a charm on 2.2.6

I only hope that someday there will be a solution for the vbportal module file

Can't seem to get it working with 2.2.6, but if others are then I must be doing something wrong =falls over=

I've installed everything perfectly but when I add locations like shoutbox.php and main_photogallery.php, or quiz.php, etc, they still show up as unknown location. If you could take a look at my online.php that would be great, just PM for it ^^;

This hack works much better if you remember to upload the hacked online.php. Great hack Firefly

This post's issue is no longer relevant

I am getting an Unknown Location in WOL - it shows the link to the file and the session ID, but its titled Unknown Location, even thought I entered it in the admin_online.php file correctly.

I followed directions perfectly, and I get this in WOL when someone is on a page I added through the admin_online control panel.

Unknown Location: /setlists/test.php?

The file in question's URL is www.antsmarching.org/setlists/test.php

and the path i use in the admin_online is ../setlists/test.php

Still no dice, though. Anyone? Please?

Matthew Yette
matt@antsmarching.org

I use complete urls for the paths and don't have any problems. That might work for you, too.

Ok - so in admin_online, I entered in the full URL into the filename box (http://www.antsmarching.org/setlists/test.php), and the link comes up as http://www.antsmarching.org/forum/ht...lists/test.php

The way I got it to work(basically link to the right place) was by entering "../setlists/test.php" into the filename field. But then I still get the Unknown Location error, complete with the &s=(random numbers) information.

PS - thanks for replying, i hope that the information I provided can better help you understand my problem so that I might get this working soon.,

Top - I feel so close - anyone have anything?

Yikes - anyone? :(

works great, thanks FireFly!!

works perfect on 2.2.6

even does files outside of main folder

Installed perfect and without one error - added to admin cp as well

Nice one Firefly - another good hack under your belt.

[QUOTE]Originally posted by Schorsch


just type the filename test.php into the location field, works fine for me.

The problem is, the test file is not in the vB folder. And I haven't found a way to dynamically include the session if it is needed.

Installed..works great

Anyway to get it to work with child forums yet? I'd like to link to http://www.planetplastica.com/home.html, but it always adds /forums/ to everything i add. :(
