I also did a fresh install On my test board same issue

not 1 single mod done to it ..

Just a clean install of vb and this hack only..

your right infopro the coding is no correct ..
all tho the mod works perfectly

thanks boofo for your information,
lets see if any one has any other ideas

thanks infopro for confirming this issue

The coding is correct if I was able to save the template fine. You must be having some other issues going on as you guys are the only ones who have reported this. Maybe you guys are trying in on a version less than 4.0.3? IIRC, there were issues with the way templates were being parsed that was supposedly fixed in 4.0.3.

It's great to see you back around Boofo, I mean that. I stil have a few of your hacks on my 3.8 forum and I've agreed with you many times over the years on different topics, but this one? I'm sorry I just can't.

I have no clue what you're talking about with less than 4.0.3, this hack has not been updated since:

Last Update: 08 Feb 2010

This thread is 16 pages long. (for me) so, the hack itself has been around far longer than 4.0.3


As I mentioned previously, I'm not sure why another user would have edited this template and came across it, so to say no one else has had this problem is pure guess work on your part.

Maybe Elmer can help explain our problem. Or are you Elmer? You seem to be assisting here a bit more than just another coder might in this thread. You're in the top 3 posters of a 16 page thread.

No biggy, as that guy above Hippy mentioned, the hack works. It's opening an saving the template that does not. IMHO< it's not standards compliant somehow.

But hey what do I know, you're the coder, I'm just lowly end user with issues. ;)

All the best.

All I'm saying is if you are trying to save the template on a version less than 4.0.3, then that might be the problem, no matter how long this hack has been around. On my 4.0.3, with numerous products installed, saving the template gave me no errors whatsoever. Funny why this would work fine for most others but mess up for just a very few, unless there were some other issues involved somehow.

No, I am not Elmer. And sorry if my assisting bothers anyone. I will back out of the thread and let you all handle things then. ;)

That's not what you said at all.

That's great!
Clearly you're not reading what I'm posting here. I've mentioned that the hack DOES work. Your answers lead me to believe I'm talking to the wrong person.

Again, you're not reading what your replying to it seems. I never once said you were a bother, I even welcomed you back, twice.

There is no problem that I can see, other than opening then saving the template. As you well know, this message means something is not correct in the template.

Saving that template, untouched has nothing to do with something else as you've suggested, multiple times now, it has to do with the template itself, and what vbulletin requires to be correct to save it normally.

I do not believe the template is entirely vb4 compatible.

Now, all that said and your comment about backing out of this thread? That's fine, me too.

I don't even use the hack. I came across this thread and in an effort to help, and because I was nosy about possibly using it myself, I installed it today for the first time, to take a peek.

That's all. So, if it works for you great. You and I have no clue how many others it would save for, and how many it will error out for, no ones commenting in that regards other than Hippy and the noisy guy, Infopro.

So for you to say:

And several of your other comments in this regard, just don't make any sense to me. If it saves for you normally, great say so and move on. If you've got an educated guess as to the problem or a fix, say so or move on.

But please don't say its not an issue and write it off. And then go on to repeat things without actually reading the posts you're commenting to, you help no one and only promote responses like this one.

I hope this post doesn't sound like I'm being rude or offensive, that is surely not my intentions here. I don't use the hack myself. I tried to help I verified the problem here on my end and was hoping to help somehow. That's it.


BTW, if that's an actual picture of you, your av? You and I could be long lost brothers. :p

Peace.

Can't get the "tab selected" to work.

I use photopost classified. THIS_SCRIPT is defined as cpindex in the index.php of the folder classified (wich is not in the forum directory).

i specify cpindex in the "tab selected" area of the script and it doesnt work... any ideas?

Hi - nice app! Everything works fine except I've been unable to link to a https page (for a paypal donate button). I use the same URL elsewhere and it works just fine. The page says "some information is missing'...it appears to leave off the ID number on the end. ??

I sent it to a page where the donate URL does work; its a little more trouble on the users end but it does work.

Oddly enough, until I eliminated the " ,'s" on the end of the lines the external links would not work. Now they are.

Don't use this, once you create a tab, it can't be deleted, it just stays there forever. I deleted it in the settings, I disabled the addon, I even uninstalled it, it's still there...Avoid at all costs

Then you are doing something wrong somewhere.
