Plurplanet,
thanks so much for looking to see already. I'll go over everything from your readme from 2.0 to 3 like you said and double check all the templates info..
..man, I can't believe I did that...

ok plurplanet, found a bug, the birthdays on the home page don't link to the right place?? missing the bburl...any ideas?

Hi...
I have a question... but 1st I would just like to say very nice hack... ok well now for my
Q:
is there a way to have an attachment show up on the news postings?
with or preferably without the text saying it is an attachment....
I would like to be able to post a picture with the news without having to upload the image via FTP....
please let me know...
thanks

Ranger - You're running v3.0, right? That's something I accidentally overlooked in that version. Here's how to fix that:

Edit your calendar_showbirthdays template. Change the link in this template and to the full url to your forums member.php file (ex /forum/member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$bd_userid).

Note that it might take a day or or so before that will work properly because of the way vBulletin does the birthdays... It basically uses the above template to insert the birthdays into a field in the database, and won't update that field unless that field is manually deleted or it's time to update it. ;)

Matrix - I've never really looked at adding attachments to news posts, but I wouldn't think it would be that hard. I'll try to look at that over the weekend and post here how you would go about adding that feature.

*Edited to attach the file to add to the minihacks section* :)

Hi Plurplanet,
Here's the list of my options...to keep it clean I think I would like the queries to get rid of the unnecessary ones.
There's sometihng else, when I ran the install script I declined the templates update thinking I was going from 3 to 3+ and the only changes were cosmetic.
will I be able to re run the 3+ install script to get the latest default templates installed for sure...so I can do a compare with my customized? I'm sure my defauts are all probably 2.0 (errrr I suck)
I'm thinking I might get an error when the script first goes to load the tables that are already existing...can I bypass that part somehow?
sorry about this...all was totally my bad

Actually it appears you are missing about 10 options as well... I was thinking that there would only be a couple of extra ones, but I must have got the version's confused for second and was thinking of the difference between 3.0 - 3.1. To make things easy on both of us, I made you a quick script that should update everything for you. Just upload it to your forums/admin folder and then go to the url in your browser. Note that it will change all the settings to their default, so you will have to reset all the myvbindex options in your Admin CP after you run it. It will also update all the default templates so you will be sure to have them all. You will not lose any changes to the templates that you have made, but it will overwrite all of the original ones so you will be able to click on the "view default template" link to see any changes. Also, you may want to edit any tempates that are still original since the default templates installed with be using the new style. Anyways, hope that helps you out and if you have any other problems let me know. :)

PlurPlanet - I just wanted to personally thank your for a great hack. I love it, and my members love it - It's great and you're support is great too!

thanks

- jeff

plurplanet...holy cow! you are wonderful! And it was all my fault too. Thank you thank you thank you ...for making things so easy for us numbnuts. lol

jeffj - Thank you. Glad you and your users are enjoying the script. :)

Littlebit - No problem at all. I figured a quick script would be easier than trying to explain everything. ;)
Oh, and ignore the "Uninstall" part at the top. I just took parts from the uninstall and upgrade scripts and put them together, but I didn't change the header part.
