Please be patient. He's a German student and I'm lucky if he finds some space from time to time. This mod runs well and if we kill all his spare time with support etc., he won't be able / willing to continue on public.

(Why should he? Optimizing it only for his own server, for sure takes much less time. Time in which he could earn much more money per hour than with this.)

I suggest, that we discharge him (="Entlasten", wenn ich das rechte Wort erwischt habe) e.g. by optimizing or even take care of the necessary support.

And ... rise his joy for doing this on public, instead of blaming and disheartening (irgend eine Version von "Entmutigen", welche wohl auch in Richtung "leckt mich doch!" geht.

Somit mal unter uns Deutschsprachigen: 1001 Dank f?r Deine Arbeit! Bin gerne bereit, Dich z.B. via meine Projektpage zu unterst?tzen (die aktuell einzige M?glichkeit, an mehrere Threads und eine Wiki zu kommen), auch wenn die selbst noch sehr prototypig ist und vbmods.org > vbMediaWiki noch nicht den gew?nschten Header / die gew?nschte Eigenst?ndigkeit etc. hat.

That makes good sense to me Bruno. I'm sure problems some of us are having is due to a simple error or not understanding the installation correctly.

I have wiki installed (1.15.2) and working at:
http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/forums/wiki/

Forum (4.0.2) is at:
http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/forums/

I added these 2 lines at the bottom of wiki/LocalSettings.php:

define( VB_INSTALL_PATH, '../forums' );
require_once( "$IP/includes/AuthPlugin_vbMediaWiki.php" );

Uploaded the files from "wiki_upload" and "forum_upload" directory into the wiki root directory.

But when I try to upload the product I get "Please upload the files that came with the vbMediaWiki before installing or upgrading!"

Where did I go wrong? Help is appreciated. :up:

well... "Uploaded the files from "wiki_upload" and "forum_upload" directory into the wiki root directory." is what this already to buggy install instruction says, but not what common sense tells you ;).

Please use the more actual vbMods.org > vbMediaWiki > Installation & Maintenance on my site (and all the informations there) until bepe has time to update it here.

But thanks for telling, I also never realized this docu-bug, which was wrong also on my vbMods.org :).

Internal wiki links are not working.. any ideas? They all point to wiki/index.php

It wasn't logical but those of us that have learned to follow installation directions implicitly will run in to that problems. Thank you for clearing it up, it's now installed.

New error:

Something equally simple I hope.

Even with vbMediaWiki disabled?

@Front Range 4x4: Read the error message... Quite sure it's something stupid but very clear if you read and look exactly... I haven't the time to feed everything.

Or install XAMP and netbeans to get a deeper look in how things work and where errors occur.

No they work fine with any other skin enabled.

I found the problem to be a conflict with VBSEO.

To correct this, I modified my "vBSEO Global Hook" in vB admincp -> Plugin Manager by adding the following code at the top.

Interesting. Thanks for this solution!

We already had conflicts with vbSEO: Modification: Using with VBseo

it worked for the wiki, however it disabled images within the forum... I'll keep trying.
