Did you chmod it to 755?

now that isnt something i checked.
being a bit of a n00b, i wouldnt know where to look, or how to check it.

could someone explain??

PHP files have to be set to "execute" in Linux/unix. The "permissions map" is 3 sets of octal numbers, as follows:

-rwxrwxrwx

Where the first set is the file owner's permissions, the second set is the group permissions, and the 3rd set is the "world" permissions. The RWX's relate to the octal values like this:

-421421421

So 755 = Owner: rwx, group, rx, word, rx

If you don't have EXECUTE permission set, you cannot run a script/program.

syntax: "chmod 755 filename"

You can see the r/w permissions by executing an "ls -l filename" command.

Hope that helps

i have installed but now when i send pager message , it will only in unreadet message, and the same message repeat again and again, what my fault?

i have tested again, and have found problems whith Firefox or Safari(Mac OSX) browser, they dont send replay when message is readed. So is this hack only IE compatible=?

thxs m8...sounds like it makes sense.
but in all honesty, that just looks like a chinese menu to me.....rofl.

how do i actually DO it??

Animate, you need to REFERSH your browser page, not hit BACK. And I use it with Firefox, and it wolrs perfectly, as long as I do what I just said.

Maurice, you need to establish a direct telnet/SSH session with your server, CD to the directory the file is in, and execute the "LS -L" command like I specified above (be sure to use ALL LOWER CASE ;)) Once you see your file's permission list, you execute the CHMOD 755 FILENAME command (again, the CHMOD part must be in LOWER CASE). You need to be the owner of the file or superuser to be allowed to change the permissions.

Hope this helps.

Hullo, Great hack I am loving just a few Ideas and a few errors i am getting...

Error 1 - Once in awhile it takes a bit for the page to get to the person but it does get their.

Error 2 - Once in awhile I get a page and it will not close at all......... and I noticed when that happens it show the Javascript Error in the taskbar in IE.....


Idea 1 - I noticed someone had a problem with the popup placement so i thought maybe you could go to www.dynamicdrive.com and get that Image Drag code and work it into so the pop-up can be dragged anywhere on the page..

Idea 2 - Do you allow people to post their additions to it... becuase I have an idea i would like to do to it and when its done i can post it....

i type in text to get paged, but don't have a button to press, so it sends?

how do i fix this?

Dennis I am on a windows system. I have a test server on my laptop. I made sure the pager.php file was in the forumroot 100 times. It's there.

Shogun, PM me a URL to your forum (and a test login/pwd if required), and I'll take a quick look.

every time a page laod it loads but it says theres errors

i believe it has something to do with the internet settings went into internet options
went to advanced and unchecked all under security and the page loads with no errors

---------------------------------------
Maybe add the option so when ya send a message and they send one back have a reply button so you can send one back

I can't it is on my laptop at home and I don't have internet access for it. :(

i keep gettign a blank message from guests and the date is like 1969 guest pager permissions is turned off

Hey i am still getting this problem... someone sent me a message and its set without a reply able and welll i can not get rid of the pop-up. Ie 6 says there is an error. and i took off all secrity and still the close button will not work can someone help me plz.

Delete all messages from the ADMINCP, vB Pager Messages.

Yes that is the only way to get ride of them....... This has been happening since i installed it..... I have checked all my mods and it was done correctly and it just has some kinda of error... I think its an error with the Close Button itself...... SOme kinda of Null Error....I like this hack i think its nice but i may turn it off itll the next version when its working properly.

there it is again...

did the CHMOD settings m8, and all my members still get the same errors in IE.

One user was saying that she could not close one of her messages. I deleted this message, and she got the same message. Her messages were not showing up as read either.

This never occurred on my test forum I created to test for bugs. I then managed to narrow it down to her being 'invisible'. I think that may have something to do with it?

I've been having this "persistent pager box" problem, from the beginning. Not sure how to get rid of it, not sure what causes it. For some reason, I as admin, can shut off the boxes, but my users can't. Which means, I log in as them, shut their boxes off, and let them go their merry ways.

It's an awesome hack. But this issue needs to be resolved. I shut mine off, waiting for the answer.

Can I have a look at your site?
pm me.

I installed this hack and it will not work for me can some one help...I click to page someone and nothing happens

Do recheck installation please.

I've noticed that this can happen if you're not using the Default vB template, or are using some of the other templates out there. Not ALL of them mind you.

UAE, I think most of us are having users report the 'persistant pager box'. I have around 2 users who report such a bug to me, and I really have no clue what's causing it, nor how to replicate it. It's not happening to everybody. When I delete the message from the AdminCP they end up receiving the next message which also continues to pop up.

Thanks...Uae..Ausome hack!!!!!

when i click install i got

I have added a new template to my forum. I currently have this modification added, but it will not allow me to run the install file again to update my templates. How can I update the appropriate template to work with vBPager?

Run the hack Uninstaller, then Reinstall it :sleep:

So everytime somebody adds a new template they need to uninstall and reinstall, thereby losing all the mySQL data saved in those tables? Looks like I have no other option.

There is an issue when I send message in the WhoisOnLine page, all datas typing in the message box will be gone after the page refresh...

Any idea to fix it? Thanks..its a great hack, click installed..

Hi uae,

Any progress on getting to the root of the bug causing the messages to stay on a person's screen, and not being able to close the pop up without the message reappearing again? The message stays unread in the AdminCP.

does this work with vb3.0.7?

yes it's work

Is this server intensive like bb | messenger?

did you ever get it to work mini?

I have this problem too...

Any help?

Also, I was going to install 2.0.4 so I removed everything I had (which already was 2.0.4) and when I started the install again I could not get past the first page because it was duplicating Mysql tables. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

I tried installing the hack again and still get the "page cannot be displayed" error that I was getting before when I click on the pager messages button in the navbar.

I've got the "1969" issue as well
