Rocc: Look closely, it hides very well

ninjamaster: No there is no file you need to edit. Are you using a .co.uk domain, if so make sure you have the .co.uk in there. Check to make sure you don't have mydomain.uk/admincp/nmaps_install.php if so you, delete and reupload nmaps_install.php to forum/admincp/

hi steve that was a typing error i have put in co.uk & i deleted it the re-up it still gose blank nothing happened just white screen any other thing to try coz this is soming i like the Description:
please

Steve, do you fixed this?

ninjamaster: Ok I will try to duplicated. Have you upgrade to vB 3.7.1 yet? If not, try that then try to access the install file.

trigon: I won't be able to get to it till tomorrow unfortunately, old friend dropped by so I'm taking time to see him.

when i go to my nmaps.php it says this

MaTTiMuS, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

go to usergroups and set permisions

LOL, thank you citroenar

Hello mate, nice to see you again. Im pleased its all come together so nicely as well.

Well done

MeetTheGeeks.org

hows it different from vba ? Just that it stores its news off of the forum?
looks nice

MTG: Exactly, I am anxious to get Pro done.

Loco: Not only that but this system is a straight news/story system. vBA has a wide range of 'systems' from news, to latest threads, etc. I suggest vBA to those who want more than news/stories but for those wanting news/stories then I suggest going for NMAPS.

Well I went to uninstall this script.. it seemed to unistall fine when using the install.php, but when you want to remove the Nmaps from the plugins in vbulliten there is no choice to remove the plugin, So now my admin panel shows that I have this Nmaps thing that is not installed.

Please fix or advise how to remove

Nevermind.. I just reinstalled and uninstalled plugin.. That did the trick.

Yep.. I'm dumb at times.. can't blame me

Hope you dont forget me :)

trigon: nope didn't forget, I'm off the next 2 days so expect to see an update.

Yes, of course. When it's running without the bugs of course(http://www.myspacepros.com/forum/articles.php). Here are the ones I've found so far:

• bb code is not translated at all, nor are line breaks. It's as if you're pulling directly from the database to display the news rather through the post displaying function.
  
• During install several of the phrases weren't installed. I had to create them manually. Phrases such as $vbphrase[nmaps_edit_story], $vbphrase[nmaps_move_story], etc.
  
• The filename nmaps.php is hardcoded in nmaps_pg_news_add and nmaps_pg_news_edit in two places (in each template).
  
• If there is no right and/or left column the table is still drawn with 3 columns, leaving the spacing off on the right and/or left side.
  
• There are phrases that are hard-coded in nmaps.php such as the ones for the breadcrumbs that need to be made into phrases.

I've fixed these errors in my copy for the most part except for the bbcode issue. I'll begin looking into that now though.

Give me a full list of phrases missing so I can add them. Now thats what I call bug reporting, ty Greg for being so thorough. I will try to get all of those fixed in this copy tomorrow. The bbcode isn't translated as the text box doesn't have bbcode enabled.

i updated stil no go hmmmmmmmmmmm

All the phrases for the admin select menu are missing.

As for the bbcode not being enabled, why isn't it?

Never figured bbcode would be used in news, but since it will be used then I will make sure its enabled.

Phrases for admin select menu should not be missing. Those were the first phrases to be done.

ninjamaster: Hmmmmm, no idea, on the blank page, right click, view source and report what you see. You should see an error on the view source page.

Yeah, mine weren't there. Weird.

As for the bbcode, it's an absolute must.

Mine works fine, haven't noticed anything wrong with it or installation problems.

Anyone know how you' go about getting it running in vbadvanced as a module, as this is a much better news system (ie. it doesn't just display forum posts) but I already have my site setup in vbadvanced?

Does one really require PHP 5.2 ? I am running on CentOS 5 that has PHP 5.1.6, and would prefer not to change the php installation....

Just installed the product, but I see no method of editting posts, nor a way to set the date an news-article will be published. Maybe next version. But like always: need it now.... Suggestions are welcome (please PM me)

tscargo: 5.1.6 should be fine. News articles are not set to allow adding own date, it reads the current date as the add date. I might be able to add a publish date option. The editing part is controlled via accessing the news post itself. I will probably add more editing ways later on right now I just want to get basics going so gold can be released.

stulancs: Right now I haven't created a vbadvanced module. I plan to add about 3 modules, one for reporters, one for news, and one for categories. Those will be released as soon as NMAPS goes gold. Currently I'm looking at 1 week when it goes gold.

Just an FYI, I am changing hosts for my sites so currently I can't work on any mods, as soon as my test sites are back up I will get back to hacking at NMAPS.

Shoot me a PM. I can give you an account on one of my servers.

I need this mod completed ASAP :)

Can anyone tell me how to delete articles submitted to a category? I cannot find that option nowhere! Thanks in advance.

Also, is there a tutorial? I don't see how to edit links either. Or, I'm just blind...

ambrosious: Submitted to a category by yourself or a member? Tutorial I haven't completely finished yet, I am doing a video tutorial to help in the use of NMAPS. If your referring to the navigation links those are in a template titled member_menu.

Steve!

Code faster damn you! :P

Greg: LOL, sorry, just now got my server and setting up all my sites, having trouble with my main site which I might have to do a fresh install then import posts, threads, etc.

To All: Thanks for your patience on this, as soon as I fix issues that have been reported and no one reports them as not working I will turn Lite to gold and move on to getting Pro completed.

Just checked out your Myspace site.

Love the menu.

May I ask how you created it, and where or how we could get something similar.
Initially i thought it was flash, its that slick.

Good work

Ozzy

Submitted by me, and thanks for the info. THANKS FOR THE HACK!

jQuery, superfish, several dozen conditions and a little patience. Shoot me a PM and I can point you in the right direction.

I certainly am awaiting the gold / Pro version to be released.

I too am looking forward to gold. I installed Lite to become fimiliar and got the following error:
Does anyone have any tips while Steve is setting up shop anew?
