More bad html,

Yes, that colspan should be 8, not 7.

As for what is common sense, you are entitled to your opinion.

Hello,

Has anyone tried it with 3.5.0 gold already? I've been wasting hours in the upgrade process because of 2 monstrous queries, so I need to recharge some stamina ;)

2. Our database still contains some info from the 3.0x AWS hack. Is it possible to just run the install script, or will it quit because the MySQL tables and maybe even some templates are still there?

Im running it with gold now.

Sorry, I didn't understand anything. :( Please help me as I really like this hack and I really want to use it.

P.S.
Is this possible without any file edits?

The inferno quiz and this do not get along.

any ideas?

Known problem - both Hacks use the same function name.
Won't be fixed (any time soon).

ill stick to the inferno warning system ;)

is this the best warning system here on vb.org?

we had erwins warning system before which was great , but with the 3.5 upgrade it was lost....

Heh. That sucks. Guess I'll have to do a little looking into fixign this myself. -_-. Or switch to Imferno Warning System.


EDIT:: Okay I fixed it myself to where it is compatible. May I attach the edited file for other users?

i would like to know how to fixed it?

k. I'll post the instructions. I garuntee nothing as I haven't had a chance to test this out, I mean I havent' seen any errors yet but any chance to throughly test it has not been made. Also you do this with no support.

Open up warnings.php and find (Line 23 for me.):
and change it to
then find(line 86 for me):
and change it to:
I have noticed no errors btu have not extensively looked. I'll look through the whole thing tomorrow and make sure but as of now I can warn a user and everything works. so yeah...Quizes should work after that.

Or..., just make the call to the Warning functions file conditional..

Change your global_start plugin to
*shakes head at ideas of code editing* ;)

thank you sir kall

Kall, that won't work because when you try to warn other people, there's an error. :(

Really?

All that code should do is make it so the code runs on all pages BUT quiz.

I think it's just me, so ignore me :( I have RPG Inferno installed and apparently, this hack "double conflicts" with the most popular hack on my board.

I'm pretty sure this would work if you didn't use RPG Inferno.

That would never happen if every author would prefix his functions, var's and tables/columns, with a hack specific prefix. (Like i always do ;))

I never do that cause prefixes are hard to remember :)
Anyway, even with prefixes it could happen - just the chance would be much lower.

Well since 3.5 i always use my Product-Id as prefix. Chance of duplicates are almost 0 then, and if the other hack was a product using the same choice of prefix, you wouldn't even be able to load them both. :D

@ everyone with the quiz problem

Seems to be a problem with us cluttering this thread. Should we go somewhere else to discuss this?

@TosaInu
It should work just fine if you were using the latest 3.0 Version of this Hack.
If not, you might end up with missing columns that need to be added manually.

Great, thanks KirbyDE.

I gave the latest version a look already and I think the install guide needs a tiny update. There are template edits that apply to both postbit and postbit legacy, yet only postbit is mentioned. It's the same code, it just needs to be mentioned. The display of warningpoints is an example.

Thanks again for porting this great hack.

Having a problem with installation. Er no I'm not - hint don't try to install this is your MySQL has just fallen over! :o

I have already posted an answer on this (or maybe a similar question). The SendPM routine that I use, was inherited from Zero Tolerance's original, warning hack. If the hack which conflicts with this routine is also written by Zero Tolerance, there is a strong possibility that these two routines, (the one in AWS and the one in the other hack) are exactly the same, so one of the two can be deleted.

The same thing with the RunError routine.

The suggested fix by TruthElixirX, is only partial, since all it does is change the names of the two routines. It does not alter the code where these routines are called from. In other words, if some where in the code, one of the hacks was calling RunError, and this routine was renamed to RunError2 in AWS code, then AWS is still calling RunError (not RunError2), which is a routine of the other hack. That enhances my thinking, that these two routines are identical in the two hacks, otherwise the fix that TruthElixirX applied would have never worked.

When I go to View Warnings and then click on Remove Warning I get:

edit:
and the url is.


ttp://forumname.com/Warn.php?do=RemoveWarning&id=1

I can, however, remove the warning from admincp

Don't mean to rush but how soon?

I got the links showing in posts, but when I click: "Warn (user)" or even "View user's warnings"

I get this screen:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

When I then click Add+1 I get:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Noticed it goes to warn.php (with no uppercase) which I believe was our old warn.php file we used.

PS: we used erwin's warning hack on vb 3.0x could this be interfering now? And if so, how do I solve this isue?

Ty

I have the Warn.php file ready, to solve this issue. It happens because I didn't change some routines of the programs to verify (the old globalize) the values.

KirbyDE shall I send it to you, or you have it done already?

Well, the first image shows that it goes to Warn.php (not warn.php), which is the proper file name, but there is no Add 1, Subtract 1 etc in AWS Warn.php program. This screen is not coming from AWS.

The second image, I also have no idea where it comes from. Judging from the URL shown, it is probably from the same file, which as I said, is not AWS.

Rgds

I know now it uses the old code from erwin's hack. Think it has something to do with a php cache program on our server. Hopefully we can get this fixed. thanks.

I just installed this and so far so good but I did notice a few typos in the Add New Warning Type section. In the part for "Can this Warning Type have an Alert?" it should have committed instead of commited and "first offence, or he is" instead of "first offence, ir he is".

Thanks!!!

Ok, I need some XML type help here in referene to the warning system....

I run VolanoChat Pro on my site and it has a servlet that listens for incoming events (related to chat monitors and banning and such.)

The VolanoChat server sends "event" notifications in XML notation to any script using HTTP POST.

I would like to somehow write a script that would receive the chat events for banning and kicking users and issue warnings through the AWS.

The guide for this stuff is at: http://www.volano.com/guide26/listening.html

Let me know what you think :)

Thank you for the great warning system - I am still going through all the features. Question: Is it possible to have the Reported post sent to an Administrator via private message instead of email?

just a quick question.....personally I'd rather have an icon instead of txt....where do I edit this?

In the Warning System menu in AdminCP, Warning Options, there is an option which says something about Text links of Buttons. Change that.

If I remember correctly, this is something that is not part of AWS. The reporting of a post is done by vB itself. Am I wrong on this?

That is strange. With all these options and we can't change the reported posts to be sent to PM? We run a large website and the message board admin address is an alias that goes to a department. It would be nice if we could not have continuous reports being sent to everyone. Please let me know if there is another way.

Thanks.

You could save Warnings and Alerts in a seperate Subforum which is MUCH better then sent it per PM ;-)

If you need Email Notification, you can use some Account and take a abo from the forum which holds the warnings/alerts.
