to uninstall the previous version, do this:
- delete all vbHome (lite) templates you created
- run step 4 from the new installer

to run step 4, load the vbHome (lite) installer in your browser like that:
vbhinstall.php?step=4

you will be prompted with the actual vbHome (lite) 3.1 uninstall. click on Continue.
you are done.

after this, start reading carefully the readmefirst.txt file. there are minor changes in v3.1 so pay attention to newthread.php file and any other details.

good look. :)

why is it vbhome lite? i mean there is only one so how cna it be lite? shouldn't lite mean that you have a lite version from the original, which just lacks certain features, thats usually what lite means.. and if this the lite then when do get a glimpse of the full?

and btw thx, i'm gonna spend some time messing with the code and templates so that i cna get it looking nice and working how i want. is there a posibility you could get some conditionals in to this? like logicians things? then i could make it super uber nice

and

it seems there is a bit of lacking code in the index.php, as "$article[comments]" seems to be lacking, even tho its called from the templates

i noticed this as now it doesn't even say anythign after the -

check my link above a few posts to see

AND! for the polls, you have it so you out in the user ids for it to show to, well what if i want ALL users to see? should i just throw in a wildcard?

my script is fine the way it is now. it doesnt need any conditionals.
btw, did you know that you dont have to write some values on the index.php file? they are automatically generated by the query so is useless to redefine them again in the file.
bad coders do this.
about $article[comments], i dont see any on the templates, but i do see $articlecomments.
about the poll, i think you dont understand what i said. everyone can see it but not everyone can post polls to the main page, unless you want it. did you noticed the screenshots?

anything else you posted above, i didnt understand properly what you said so you have to rephrase again your sentences.

anout the script, if you think the script is incomplete, feel free to to write an add-on, if you find something is missing from it.
and there is a commercial version of what you see here.
you can check it at http://virtuanews.co.uk

ya ok, well.. i'll take a look at it, but in my home_articlebits at the bottom where it has the - coments part, it has $article[comments]

what should this be? cause thats the way it was put on


Edit: Hmm thats weird i just checked my template it said $article[comments], yet in the install file it sadi to use $articlecomments, womethign weird went on there, did it not un-install properly?

make sure you remove your internet temp files, then redownload the file. you have an old version there.
also remove all OLD templates manually. then start from scratch. read my uninstall procedure, few posts above.

my uninstaller does not remove the old templates. only the new ones. also those new templates, once installed with the installer cannot be removed if they are customized. you have to revert them to original, then apply the uninstall.

I want to start using vbHome (currently using vbPortal with its MANY MANY MANY queries), but in order to make the step easy for my users I want to finish the templates that vbHome uses on my home computer before using it on my actual site.

So even though you won't see vbHome there just yet: my site's url is www.Online-Role-Playing.com

check your pm's leech. thanks for choosing my hack.
let me know how it goes.

TECK,

Im using the standar setting for polls with the pollactive set at 1 and pollposters array at 1, 3 15 and Im posting polls as admin and all i get in my home page is

Latest Poll

Total votes

No poll shows up or even a link? Any thoughts to what I have might forgoten?

there a little bug i found... it will not fix your problem nokia, but update your file anyway.
in vbhl index.php, find:
replace it with:
now, what you did wrong is that you installed over the old version the new one.

you have to delete all templates you manually made. they will not work with the new version.
just read the uninstall procedure:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...785#post303785

then you will see it works.

TECK,

That code you posted fix the poll!!!

I also started from scratch instead of updating. I did a fresh vB install with a fresh install of vBhome lite 3.1

So perhaps that was the problem but fixed with the replacement code!

But it did lengthen the load time of the page to

Page generated in 12.75128102 seconds (0.79% PHP - 99.21% MySQL) with 20 queries

edit: when I turn the poll off via setting it to 0 in the index.php file the page loads up quick.
